Local benefits?
Yes
Overall rating?
This was my first trip to South America and going solo I was a little nervous. It was great to be part of a group and explore Chile together. Even though the
itinerary is action packed everything is organised... (more)Anna Hards

All of it was fantastic. An amazing experience, made possible by an awesome tour leader. (more)Colin Catt
The highlights for me personally were a visit to the D.T. Suzuki Museum in Kanazawa and the visit to the O Torii Gate on the island of Itsukushima, where deer roam freely. The whole two weeks were a whirlwind of amazing sights, sounds and experiences. (more)Linda Marlow
The day with the snow monkeys sticks in my mind but the morning we spent at the Buddhist morning prayer was also incredible. Absolutely amazing! Hugh did an incredible job showing us around and had an excellent rappor with the locals. This has been my favourite holiday so far. (more)Nathaniel Castle

Jerdash Roman ruins was quite intact and impressive. But the most memorable were Petra, the walk along the Siq, and seeing the Treasury, and the Monastery. They were fantastic. Hiking up to the cliffs of Petra and the views were outstanding. (more)Ferdinand Rullan
The most memorable moment was Petra (of course) and the camel ride at Wadi Rum (it is an optional but well worth it!). Our local tour leader was excellent (knowledge of history and kept us entertained during our bus journeys), the group blended well (the best so far), trips well organised and plenty of shopping opportunities. (more)Hely Collie
Petra was the obvious highlight but we saw so many other unexpected monuments, ancient cities and fabulous landscape. Every day brought a new highlight. An excellent trip that visited as much of the country as possible squeezed into a week. (more)Alison Drew

Most memorable was Torres del Paine national park and climbing to the base of the granite peaks - something I'd dreamed about doing for years. Battling the Patagonian winds to stand on the beach photographing icebergs. Clinging on for life as we raced down the rapids white water rafting in the Lake District. (more)Ruth Edwards

Angels Falls
Tips?
Local benefits?
Overall rating?
It was a very good tour. I enjoyed all of it. The only thing is that the tour could have been a few days shorter, and then it would have been easier to be away from the office. It was not necessary with 3 nights in the interior of Guyana, 1 or 2 nights would have been enough. (more)Annie Krefting
From
£2,799
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
The Tsingy was brilliant really would have liked to stay there longer which is what could be said of all the places we visited. A really great country to visit.
Tips?
Be prepared for some long drives and get fit as the walks are terrific but you need to be up to doing them.
Local benefits?
I'm sure it helps local people and conservation reducing environmental impacts is debatable.
Overall rating?
Extremely good I could not have done myself, very well... (more)Barry Theobald

It was outstanding, we were a group of 5 ladies and we wanted a challenge and something out our comfort zone, and we got that. We were all so proud of what we did, it was hard work, but it wouldn't have been a challenge had it not been. (more)Val Yates
The most memorable moment was travelling through the snowy wilderness with only the sound of the dogs paws and the sledge. Standing on a frozen lake (-20 degrees C) watching the northern lights and learning to understand and care for my husky team. (more)Ruth Stevens

Seeing tigers in Ranthambore National Park- yes two less than twenty feet away. I had no expectations of seeing so to come across one resting beside the track who was then joined by another was amazing. (more)Charmian Hobbs
Don't hesitate to book. Just go! It was amazing. The operator uses local transport, including trains. The hotels were small businesses and not part of large world wide chains. Our group was a mix of ages from 20 year olds to over 60's so it is suitable for all wanting to experience India. (more)Kathryn Heirons
Most memorable - the amazing places we stayed and the wonderful people we met most exciting - being driven through the streets of Delhi, it got the adrenaline pumping anyway! (more)Beki Williams

was one of the best trips I have ever done. We experienced all kinds of travel, visited many amazing sites and learned more in one month than most people do in a lifetime. The most memorable part was the homestay where we experienced what life really is for the locals who were so welcoming and friendly to us. (more)Sarah Beddow

So much to list! I think snorkelling with the turtles on Galapagos and having humming birds at my finger tools feeding from a nectar pot was the most memorable. Unbelievably fantastic! All enhanced by the fantastic guides we had in Quito, Galapagos and Bella Vista Cloud forest! (more)Chris Goldthorp

It was an excellent educational and fun experience. (more)Pat Griffin
So many great things, but our guide had to be number one. He made sure we were comfortable, happy, well-informed and active at all times. I will definitely
never forget the Cuban people that we met -- those whose homes we stayed in and others that we got to chat with about their work or other aspects of their
lives. (more)Erin Buzuvis

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

balance between travel time and time at the location. Great guide! (more)Dini Plug

Seeing was believing when it came to the Taj Mahal, not many places live up to be better than you anticipate as this place did. My wife and I have done some travelling, but this has to be the most impressive building we have ever witnessed. The Taj Mahal was almost worth the tour fee alone.
Tips?
Do not be put off by such a cheap price for the package, if we had paid treble we still would have been getting value for money! Don't be put off by such high attention from... (more)Jonathan Kenyon

Cambodia - the temples of Angkor Wat are a true gem; Phnom Penh and its museums as well as the recent Cambodian history were heart breaking but very educational. (more)martina kocjan

There were so many highlights! Perhaps the most memorable was the sunset in
Monument Valley, the light made the rock glow. The tour leader was also excellent - knowledgeable, enthusiastic, but reactive to the views and wishes of the travellers, anticipating our preferences.

Be prepared for extremes of temperature - cool and cloudy in San Francisco, extremely hot and dry in Vegas.
Local benefits?
Clearly using local accommodation, often not owned by... (more)Ian Roberts
