Most memorable were waking to the sound of a lion killing a wildebeast behind our tent in Amboseli National Park campsite. Singing and dancing with 500 children from a local primary school in Tanzania. (more)Gaenor Morris

Visiting the NGOs, cycling out of Phnom pehn, fighting through sand in the midday sun, cycling through rice fields, conquering a 20k mountain climb or cycling into the chaos of Saigon/ hoi chi mihn? Too many to mention wonderful memories.... (more)Charlie Stockford

Very hard to pick just one element of the trip, it was all memorable. Cycling through Vietnam and Cambodia gives you a chance to immerse yourself in local life in a way that travelling by any other means would have been impossible. We cycled well off the beaten track, through villages and paddy fields, along dirt tracks and local paths. We ate incredible local, fresh food and visited some fascinating places on the rest days.

The riding was excellent on quiet picturesque roads. The spring flowers were in full bloom. The weather was perfect and the small towns and their accommodations were lovely. (more)Bill Akeroyd

We got up in the morning had a great breakfast and onto our bikes-all we had to do was appreciate the beautiful scenery and decide where to stop for coffee. Lunch was a picnic along the way and with nothing else to think about, it made for a very relaxing holiday. (more)Anne Taylor

I would go again without hesitation. A perfectly organized tour with enough space for individual changes. Well done! (more)Roman Holderbach

The most memorable part of our holiday was the time spent in a very remote area of Tanzania with the Masai. We were privileged to visit their homes and witness their day to day living. An amazing experience! (more)Susan Ducollet-Holliday

Brilliant! I have done supported tours in USA, Cuba, Brazil and Europe and this is the gold standard in terms of support, food, attention to detail, professionalism, friendliness etc. etc. I cannot recommend this company too highly. Go have fun! (more)Jane Thurnell-Read

It is impossible to point out one most exciting part of the three week long stay in Kerala. Cycling, trekking, kayaking, smelling and tasting, it was all very good. It was a very good holiday. (more)Laima Tikuisiene

Having a varied programme with a mixture of activities (kayaking, swimming, hiking and cycling) interspersed with fantastic scenery and wildlife and very friendly and informative staff was the best part. A wonderful family orientated holiday, with fun activities, beautiful countryside, helpful staff and excellent food. (more)Dinah Perry

It surpassed our expectations. The best parts were Cycling through villages, with all the children running out to greet us, and giving us "high 5's"as we passed through - Standing on top of the 2nd highest mountain in South India, having just trekked to the top. Staying for the night on a rice boat... (more)janice eastman

Memorable parts? The final day ride up the Atlas mountain as it was the most scenic and also conversation with the Berber Cave girl. Tips? As this trip covers areas fro the coast to the mountains, we experience all the 4 seasons so sufficient warm clothings is important as it was -4 C one morning at Ait Benhaddou. Local benefits? Most local people directly involved with this tour benefitted but we are disappointed the operator no longer support the Horizon organization as... (more)Albert Tan

Memorable parts? Cycling through villages and countryside in central Vietnam. Tips? Take ear plugs for the overnight train, the sound of the rails may keep you awake; and a proper waterproof as when it rains it pours. Local benefits? We used local guides, drivers and restaurants and shopped in fair trade shops. Using the bikes took us into smaller roads on which there may have been a negative impact if we were in motorised vehicles. Visiting protected sites may help restrict... (more)Steven Williams

Memorable parts? No one particular part because the whole holiday was a memorable and thoroughly enjoyable experience. The cycling guide, Pedro, and the back-up transport driver, Jaoao, could not have been more enthusiastic or attentive to ensure that we all enjoyed the holiday to the full: which we all did. It was a very interesting and varied holiday with the contrasts of Porto, Atlantic coast, villages, Obidos and ending up in Lisbon. Tips? Plenty of sunscreen required and a reasonable...

Memorable parts? Riding the crazy streets of Phnom Penh on the first day, like you're in a computer game. Eating a power bar on a river bed after a two-hour push through mud. Seeing a small girl rowing a bath tub in a floating village on the Tonlé Sap. Beef loc lac. Fish amok. A chorus of hellos from children in every village. Hoem, the support van driver's laugh. Angkor Thom with no one there. Twin massage in Siem Reap. Water buffalo. Macaques. Iced coffee with condensed milk. The ice-cream... (more)Louise Brealey

Memorable parts? Spectacular flight from Pokhara to Jomsom through the mountains, followed the next few days with biking through some quite stunning scenery in close view of the Annapurna range. Tips? Pay attention carefully to the (comprehensive) kit list supplied up front. The range of climate and temperatures over the trip was drastic, with very cold weather indeed for the first day at altitude(Muktinath) - daytime was an unusually cold for the time of year at minus 5 C on the...

Memorable parts? The best part for me was the rides around Inle Lake; really peaceful and interesting riding and the lake a source of life for so much. Great bikes and great group all added to the experience. Tips? Go with the flow; if you choose Monsoon season be prepared to get very very wet; that said it was part of the experience and part of life in Myanmar so it didn't really detract. Just take quick dry clothes and several pairs of shoes/rubber ones help. Local benefits? Yes... (more)Justine henwood

Probably the last day's cycling was the most memorable part of the holiday...On the whole, very enjoyable. (more)Sue Richards
