"I just wanted to say thank you to you for arranging my recent trip to Egypt. It was a wonderful holiday and I felt really taken care of from beginning to end. Your advice regarding the extra day was excellent and the upgrade to a pyramid view room worth every penny.
Mr. Patterson"

"This was a fabulous trip from beginning to end with charming and attentive local guides throughout and wonderful accommodation. The dawn balloon ride over Bagan was particularly magical as was the opportunity to get very close to the fishermen on Inle Lake – a photographer's dream!
Mr Peter Bradbrook"

"We really enjoyed Trogon Lodge at San Gerado de Dota. Lovely location, friendly staff and excellent local guides.
Mr Colin Dickinson"

"I think Victoria Falls and then Bumi Hills resort were, without doubt, the highlights of the trip - which was a really fabulous trip.
Mr Steven Wigg"

"The Iguacu falls were probably the high spot, closely followed by Corcovada. The Manaus experience was very special too.
Mrs Vivienne Taylor"

"The holiday was superb. Everything was perfect: nobody could have wished for a better honeymoon. Our driver was excellent and it felt very luxurious being driven around. He was very courteous and looked after us so well - far above and beyond the call of duty.
Mr John and Trudy Cornes

Mr and Mrs W"

Mrs Hiller"

"As on any tour, the guides are vital to the smooth running and harmony of the tour. I don’t believe these holidays have highlights, they are all highlights from start to finish. Thanks for a great holiday.
Mr. Betchett"

"The first sight of the Taj Mahal was a really magical experience.
Mrs Sally-Ann Hart"

"There were so many wonderful moments. I think I enjoyed the most looking upon the 'Monastery' at Petra having climbed the 800 steps. At each place we had a wonderful time - the sunsets at the Marriott hotel in Petra. The camel and jeep rides at Wadi Rum. Snorkelling at the Red Sea. Floating in the Dead Sea. All very magical.
Mrs Stephanie Jenkins"

"The visit to Gallipolli was very moving and thought provoking. The cemetery at Anzac cove and the inscription of Ataturk's words will live in our memories for a long time.
Mr Gordon Warwick"
