Most memorable was trekking in Chang Mai, without a doubt. The itinerary was amazing and we'll never forget the bamboo rafts being made right in front of us, the elephant trek and the hospitality of the hill tribes.
(more)I enjoyed so many things about my holiday, I had a truly fantastic time but if I had to choose I would say the hill-tribe trek, that was a great experience for many reasons, I especially loved seeing the tribes & the breath-taking landscape it was unbelievable I thought, a special experience. (more)It was an excellent holiday one of our best holidays. The local guide was lovely, he tried to teach us an elephant song! (more)
The whole experience was far better than any expectations I had, from the temples of Angkor to the markets, the local cuisine, the activities, this trip was just one memorable experience after another...I can’t wait to book my next trip! (more)The temples in Angkor Wat / Siem Reap were incredible. The roads in Cambodia were pretty memorable as well [though for a completely different reason!]. (more)Many memorable and exciting experiences: The awesome caves, the jungle trekking in Sangklaburi, canoeing down the river Kwai for 3 hours. (more)The temples (including Angkor Wat) around Siam Reap were wonderful. But our two day trip on the Mekong to Luang Prabang and, Luang Prabang itself were very memorable. It was a wondeful experience in every respect. The organisation and choice of hotels and guides was excellent. (more)The most memorable occasion was the meal prepared for us by the family in the house on stilts and the chance to try the local delicacy (afterwards), fried tarantula. (more)The most memorable part of the holiday was the first village stay on the hill tribe trek - we were the first group to stay in this village, and the kids were so excited to see us that I think we became a free babysitting service to the whole village for the entire night!
(more)The most memorable part of this holiday were the great guides. Both Wi and Aor were great company and very knowledgeable. (more)What we liked the most was the variation in the program - culture - nature - sports (could have been little bit more) - homestay - and definitely NOT to forget the Thai cooking!!...It was an unforgettable adventure! And our local guide did her utmost to make all comfortable for everybody!! Good job!! (more)
Most memorable were Angkor Wat and the other temples around Siem Reap. Home Stay near Vinh Long. (more)
I enjoyed the homestay the most as I felt like we got to understand a little bit about the people and managed to keep fit with the kids :) (more)
The train Journey from Bangkok, the days on the Mekong and the guided tour of Bangkok were the highlights. (more)A brilliant adventure with a wide variety of faces of Thailand...We were made to feel so welcome by all who we met. (more)The traditional Thai dancing was absolutely stunning – we had a taste of four different types of dance by the elegant dancers, as well as a charming routine by a young girl. It was also wonderful to visit a local temple with Tim, who was a delightfully warm & friendly guide. (more)
Beyond and all around the jungle rolled away in a series of luscious green hilltops, into a misty purple distance. This was home for the night. You felt you were the first people on earth: it was a privilege to be in such a lonely and exquisitely beautiful place. I'll never forget it.

The most memorable parts included staying in such basic accommodation and meeting the tribal people. Also the bamboo rafting. Our guide and porter were both brilliant and added such a lot to our enjoyment. (more)We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
