It was very memorable and exciting, and a good idea to go on a tour through a country that would be difficult to navigate alone.
(more)The most memorable parts of our trip must be the crazy cyclo tour through the streets of Saigon and eating insects in a bar overlooking Phnom Penh! (more)I loved the train journey, chatting to the locals, making food, using the hot
water urns at the end of the carriage and having the wheels changed on the
Mongolia/China border was a fantastic experience. (more)Church going in Armenia and Georgia, visiting a sea resort in Georgia, eating excellent food in guesthouses, climbing up hills and rocks to reach an isolated church. (more)Most memorable were Angkor Wat and the other temples around Siem Reap. Home Stay near Vinh Long. (more)I had the most wonderful time in Tibet. The organisation worked very well, and the people looking after us were wonderful. Congratulations!! A great trip! I hope to go with you again next year. Many thanks (more)Besides the monumental and unique sceneries, the best moments of the travel happened during the contact with the beautiful people of the Tibet and of Nepal. Their culture is so rich and different that, as the altitude itself, takes away our breath and turn these days into unforgettable holidays. (more)There were so many highlights to this holiday which covered so many countries... Staying the night in a hilltribe village in northern Thailand, snorkling on the coral reefs around Ko Phi Phi, 4x4 driving, drinking tea in a tea plantation in the Cameron highlands...exploring great cities like KL and Singapore. Fantastic, but tough going at times!

The whole of the holiday was extremely memorable but the highlight was the trip to Everest Base Camp. The views from Rombuk, particularly with the sunset and sunrise were out of this world. (more)Unforgettable - a fantastic introduction to India with an incredible variety of experiences packed into a fortnight. Excellent guide and very well though out itinerary. (more)
It was quite a whirlwind and, although everyone got extremely tired, the memories of Vietnam will mellow like a good wine.
(more)There were several highlights. Seeing the Taj Mahal at sunrise. It was more beautiful than I could have imagined at that time of day it looks surreal. (more)
The amount of sights that were packed in to a 10 day trip - the bustle of Hong Kong, the scenery and rural setting of Yangshuo, the ancient city of Xian and the mixture of history and modernity of Beijing, as well as icons such as the Great Wall, the terracotta army and the best of Chinese entertainment. (more)I really enjoyed the relaxing river trip on the mekong, I loved the peacefulness of the journey and the fact that you felt like you were in the middle of nowhere, the stops were great and the local guide savatt was really friendly and knowledgeable and helpful.

Most memorable? It has to be Kyrgyzstan. The landscape, the people, sleeping in yurts - even the food. All fantastic. (more)
Thoroughly enjoyable, we had a variety of very stimulating and interesting experiences. We felt we were in the company of likeminded fellow travellers, which obviously added to the enjoyment.
