That's difficult as there were so many memorable moments. The zipwire above the cloud forest was a massive adrenalin rush. Helping to plant trees by potting bags of soil was great too and a great bonding moment for the group. (more)Sylvia Kenna

The country was beautiful. The group that I travel with was fantastic. I being the oldest at 75 there were quite a few younger. It was a great mix of mines and personalities, the people are very friendly our guide was great. And the homes we stayed in or outstanding. One of my greatest travel experiences I’ve had!

Fantastic. My teenage, and somewhat well-travelled children have rated it as the best holiday ever. (more)Alex Holmes
The morning spent at Tikal in Guatemala was excellent. This activity is definitely best done in the early morning light as it gets very warm and less pleasant to walk in the jungle after 10am. (more)Diana Urbina

Zion & Bryce Canyons were new to me and quite spectacular, esp with a light covering of snow on the peaks and in some gullies. The trip allowed plenty of
time for hiking / walking and also for taking photographs which was really great. (more)Pamela Harris

Our guide, Oscar, who entertained, looked after and informed us across 700 miles of an amazing country. Trinidad and its music, architecture and people - wonderfully vibrant. A very challenging 10 km hike through tropical rainforest, but we all made it! The classic car ride in Havana - great fun. (more)Vicky Gatley
Travelling around Cuba in vintage cars and listening to the local music at night was the most memorable. (more)Tony Davies
The two week trip enabled me to get a great overview of the country. I really enjoyed the fabulous live music at every turn, the eclectic architecture, the old
American cars, and the simple, yet gorgeous food we tasted en route. Every destination had something special to offer and every included activity was a
highlight.
