We had an amazing holiday with a superb guide and amazing scenery . The food was very good and the accommodation comfortable. An excellent trip.
This was a great trip. A combination of excellent sometimes strenuous day walks, memorable journeys and comfortable accommodation.
We had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Bhutan and Nepal. Bhutan, particularly, was an astonishing cultural experience. The only minus was the food in Bhutan, which is frankly poor. Otherwise pretty much everything met or exceeded our expectations and the organisation was impeccable.
We waited two years (due to covid!) for this trip to happen. Was it worth the wait? Definitely! Bhutan is a wonderful, beautiful experience, unlike anywhere else in the world I have been. The trip was well organised even given the last minute changes to the itinerary, the guide was very professional as was our driver but most of all, the Bhutanese people were so friendly and welcoming. Being offered tea with the locals on the Tiger's Nest trek was perhaps the highlight of the trip!
This was a diverse and well paced adventure. Plenty of amazing flora and fauna. The travelling across the country did not feel onerous and was well worth it to allow us the chance to experience a range of scenery and different climatic conditions. Our guide, Tito, was excellent company and very knowledgeable, ably supported by our driver Leo. Accommodation was equally diverse, but always of a good standard. Fantastic!
The holiday was an excellent way to see the wildlife and scenic highlights of Costa Rica. It is a beautiful destination and even though it is now attracting increasing numbers of tourists, it is still possible to visit some less travelled to areas. This was our first experience of small group travel having always travelled independently in the past but selected this group tour as it was our fist visit to Latin America. Overall this was a thoroughly enjoyable holiday.
This is a wonderful trip, with many opportunities to spot and photograph a variety of flora and fauna, and beautiful walks amongst lush vegetation. The guide was very interesting, organised and flexible, as well as being a great advocate for the Pura Vida Costa Rican outlook on life. Be prepared for wet and humid weather as this is what creates the environment for the wide variety of birds, animals, trees and flowers.
Great trek from start to finish. Well looked after by engaging and hardworking guides and porters. Blessed with great weather, always sunny and a bit chilly at night. Achieved our goals and had great fun on the way.
A good challenge with great scenery.
The logistics and organisation from start to finish were second to none, and at no point were we left wondering what was going to happen. People met us, always there on time or early, and transport was excellent. Everyone was friendly and helpful and gave the impression that they were genuinely trying to make our trip a memorable experience. The hotel in Kathmandu was an oasis and the food superb. Our guide, Mani, and his team were equally friendly and helpful.
