Quite simply the most balanced and enjoyable trip we ever took. It has history, nature, hiking, downtime, rainforest, cities, jungle, mountains, coffee, beaches all delivered by one of the best guides we ever encountered.

The guide made the best of the conditions and helped us get the most out of the week.

Great trip. Super scenery, lovely food, characterful accommodation, excellent leader, what`s not to like?

Costa Rica is an amazing place. Flora and fauna have to be seen to be believed and José enabled us to see so much.

A very well organised trip, with a great group of 6 people. All the staff from the guide, cook and mule men were all really attentive and would do anything to make the trip enjoyable. The food was delicious, with fresh ingredients and lots of meat and vegetables tagines. We even had homemade bread and doughnuts ! It was very cold for the first couple of nights, whilst camping high but got warmer each night. The days were warm and sunny. A great trip and I would highly recommend.

This is the first time I have gone on a group holiday. The holiday exceeded my expectations. Trekking in the Western Ghats was the highlight of the trip, with the food that was prepared for us in the mountains the highlight of the food in Southern India. The guides were excellent, knowledgeable, thoughtful and approachable showing a deep knowledge of their countries which they conveyed to us so well.

I had so much fun on this trip. This was a great opportunity for a complete beginner like me to try a selection of winter activities. The accommodation and catering were superb (I could get very used to a daily sauna!). Our guide Lauri was an excellent tour leader, making everyone feel welcomed, explaining the activities, ensuring we were enjoying ourselves safely, and explaining the landscape and wildlife of the area.

This was a well-organised trip along mostly smooth roads, stopping at many good hotels and eating good local food. The trip operates as a hotel to hotel cycling route with only one short transfer by bus (out of central Bangkok). Although this is satisfying as a journey, it does mean cycling along some surprisingly busy roads: even for a time along the hard shoulder of a major dual-carriageway.

A great way to see a fascinating and vibrant country. A lot packed into 2 weeks.

Great guide. Plenty of snow this year. Hut cold but very friendly. Good trip though could be affected by the weather.

A fabulous and memorable trip. A lovely small group. Everyone got on well and kept up with the pace of the trip. An action packed trip. Great itinerary. A huge variety of activities scenery and sites. A lot of travelling but not excessive - as expected considering the area to be covered. Guya was an exceptional guide. Knowledgeable, helpful, patient, resourceful. He kept us well informed with daily itinerary updates and went out of his way to make our trip so memorable.

Great hiking/camping variety. Daniel was outstanding. He was informative about the country. He kept a tight efficient schedule and managed the group well. He is one of the best guides that I have encountered.

With the most snow in years and lots of weather warnings, our guide Anna made sure not only were we safe (by tweaking the program), but we got to enjoy the beautiful mountains and she even arranged some sunshine in amongst the wind and snow. She also sent us a great photo and video montage of our trip to help us remember it by. Beautiful location, great guide, good food, very happy customer!

Food was good, plentiful, and healthy, albeit a bit monotonous after a few days. Somewhat understandable given the field preparation constraints. Restaurant food had plenty of variety and ample choices. 10 out of 10 for Tour Leader, Daniel.Superb in all respects.

You provide a good value service working with knowledgeable local experts. Our tour leader had fantastic knowledge, great sense of humour, patient and flexible if plans need to change.

A very well thought out itinerary providing a taste of everything Sri Lanka has to offer.
