1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
The scenery, it was one of the most beautiful trips have taken, the views were stunning and unusual, it looked like Lord of the Rings mixed with fairyland. I never knew that that part of the world was so enchanting. It's not just mountain views.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
It's very uphill, if you are dodgy on your pins I would seriously think twice. That said 2 ladies managed things but it's impossible for wheelchairs. I managed to see most things but did spend time back in the car or in the hote,l when the walk proved too much. Despite all though I loved the trip.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Everyone seemed glad to see tourists back and they are trying hard to reduce environmental impact, but fly tipping is everywhere despite notices against it.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
I loved it. I wish I'd known how cold it would be then I would have packed a bit better for it, the low centigrade and minus 2, was not the sort of temperature i was to told to expect.Holiday Reviews
You can trust Responsible Travel reviews because, unlike many other schemes, reviews can ONLY be written by people who we have verified have been on the holidays. In addition, we don't run these holidays ourselves - our only interest is giving you the best independent advice.
