Tours & holidays in 2018 & 2019

We loved Cirali and our hosts who were welcoming and kind. I would not hesitate to recommend this accommodation to others. (more)Lucy Zaboklicka

It is a delightful oasis hidden off the main road in the off-the-beaten-path town of Cirali. (more)Juli Gammon

We are going back - that says it all! The freedom our 2 boys (18 months and 3 yrs) had both at the house and Cirali in general was the best bit. Running about in the beautiful garden, with the chickens, finding eggs to go with their (delicious!)breakfast. (more)Nisha Vasavda

There is a lot to do on the island but just relaxing and doing nothing was also lovely as the accommodation was very comfortable. (more)Penelope Robinson

Lots of very memorable moments, but the best was finding a family of sloths at Playa Punta Uva on the Caribbean Coast who were so close we could have touched them. (more)Janet Sutherland

Fantastic! Our time at El Remanso lodge in the Osa Penninsla it was a super place and had some wonderful wildlife sightings there. (more)Jane Fowles

On an early morning bird-watching trail with a local guide, we were lucky enough to see 5 of these beautiful birds... feeding on wild avocados. We sat for an hour as the sun began to rise, driving away the cold night air as the clouds rolled up the forested mountain side. Quite amazing. (more)Paul Smith

You'd be hard-pressed to find a holiday better than this (more)Emily Hunka

Very good and hugely relaxing...the most memorable part was diving off the rocks into the sea first thing each morning and the views from the bedroom windows across the sea. (more)anna bradley

A Fabulous rest in a beautiful setting, but still always something to do if you wanted. (more)jane edwards

Memorable parts? How to decide between so many great moments. It must have been either the cooking class or the circus. But generally, as cliched as it is, the best part were the people. Both our wonderful guides and the others we met. So friendly and releaxed, not as in your face as in other Asian countries I visited. Tips? When you visit the Killing Fields, also visit the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum. The two sites belong together to grasp the history of the country, and can easily... (more)Gerhard Kordmann

Fantastic!...Exploring the Byzantine capital of the Pelopponese, Mystras, en route between Tolo and Gytheio. Beautifully painted churches, crumbling ruins, a Frankish fortress with magnificent views and a convent tortoise! (more)Taissa Csaky

Our holiday was wonderful.... We have travelled extensively all over the world and driving in many different countries. This agency was the best that we have ever worked with (more)Sarah Turner

It was a great family holiday.... Drake bay is a beautiful spot with lots of nature around, nice excursions and beautiful beach at the door step (more)ana cabrita

Amazing. A learning experience that was exciting and fun every day. (more)Sarah Lewis

Book it now! (more)Christine Keen

Just generally beautiful scenery, friendly people and good food. Enjoyed visiting the Yanartas. Ten out of ten! We love Cirali beach and Hotel Bellerofon! (more)Kathyrn Davy

Fabulous, relaxing and comfortable. (more)Alison Johnson

The peace and quiet! 4 stars! (more)James Coates

Memorable parts? Loved the Colombian people; loved Bogota; Medellin & Cartagena. Tips? Be aware in advance of the length of time it takes to get served in restaurants and the blandness of the food. Also we found the guides to be uninspiring. Colombia needs to invest in these areas in order to drive tourism in a positive was. Local benefits? Yes. Overall rating? It was good and very enjoyable overall - we saw a huge amount of the country and had many different experiences. (more)Helen Cosgrove

Memorable parts? All of it! Tips? Research what you want to do as there is so much to do and see in Costa Rica that one trip will not be enough!! Local benefits? Yes very much so! Felt intergrated into the communities! Overall rating? 10/10. (more)Julia Hames

The escape to the quiet islands of Koh Mak and Koh Kood were relaxing. We enjoyed using the motorbike to get around the island, scuba, and delectable thai seafood dishes. (more)Nathan Furukawa

Our holiday was fantastic, energetic, gracious, and packed with great memories. We saw the world in a whole new light. Prepare to have your idea of reality redefined. (more)Federico Mingozzi

I think the variety of the locations made for a really fun "taster's menu" of Thailand. (more)Anah Klate

Without a doubt - we would recommend this holiday...... it was a perfect relaxing and exciting family holiday! (more)Felicity Mallam

A fantastic family holiday, relaxed and fun. I could not recommend highly enough and hope we get a chance to return in the future. (more)Charlie Leech

The best we've ever been on, the memories will last a life time. (more)Sam Mason

Memorable parts? Our pathetic attempt at bird watching in the rainforest was great fun....if only we'd known what we were looking at (we had a guide but.....!) stumbling onto a quiet beach at the end was fantastic....thankfully with a water taxi waiting. Tips? Paul from the holiday provider was brilliant.....take his recommendations! Local benefits? Our main accommodation was local owned and staffed. Our lack of Portuguese was a challeng a couple of times, but overall it... (more)Brenda Carter

Memorable parts? Cycling around the Northern-most point of La Digue, Seychelles, and discovering Giant Tortoises crossing the road to hang out on the beach. Tips? If you want to see the Coco de Mer forest on Praslin Island, visit Fond Ferdinand in preference to the Valle de Mai Nature Reserve - it's less busy and cheaper, and you will see similar things, have great personal service and get far fewer mosquito bites! Local benefits? Yes, especially on Praslin where there were... (more)Petra Olliffe

Memorable parts? Linda and Mike (London) We stayed in Appartment B for 6 days in July and had a very pleasant and relaxing stay. This was a very nice apartment - very clean and well equipped, cool inside without need for air conditioning. Outside the garden was lovely and shady with comfortable outside seating, BBQ available, good views over country and coast, and herbs we could use. It was close to pleasant local beaches, shops etc and a good location for visiting other parts of NW Sardinia.... (more)Linda Milbourne

Gloriously relaxing, in a beautiful, calm environment. Exactly what I needed to recharge. (more)Patricia Grey

A great holiday, very relaxing. (more)Niamh O Conghaile

The important factor for us was that the accommodation is a family-run business and it works well. (more)Peter Gander
