A fabulous trip to Morocco
The trip gave us a superb introduction to Morocco blending cities with desert and mountain locations.
Most Inspirational Moment
I enjoying the sunrise camel ride and the chance to meet a Berber family in their own home.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Khaled was an excellent leader and a first rate ambassador for his country. He planned extra activities to enhance our experience such as a city tour of Rabat for the group and a visit to an oasis. Khaled selected some excellent city guides for us especially our guide in Meknes.I enjoyed the range of restaurants he chose and the entertainment some offered. He was always pleasant, friendly and engaging and had a can do attitude. I would be absolutely delighted to find he was our leader on another trip. Mention must be made of Ishmael too who was an extremely careful driver and always pleasant and helpful in any way he could be. They were an ideal duo for our trip.
Advice for Potential Travellers
An excellent trip as a first introduction to Morocco. The only disappointment was the hotels. At times they were well out of the centres and very basic indeed. For example in Essaouira the trip notes said the hotel was in the heart of the medina. In fact it was a good 40-50 minute walk away. In Marrakesh the hotel was a 55 minutes walk from the centre. It was a five star trip but I cannot give it that because of the hotels.
Classic Scotland: Edinburgh to the Highlands
Loved the organization of our Scotland trip! Steven, our guide, was excellent! Some of my favorite trips were Bosnia and Beyond and Baltics in Winter (older version). Great communication with the US office in planning.

Beautiful coastal walks, visit to Heligan gardens.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Mel should be particularly commended for how she dealt with the head injury, she was excellent at dealing with the injured lady as well as looking after the whole group.
A whole new meaning to getting Into the Wild!
This was an experience of a lifetime! I cannot recommend this trip enough. If you want to go wild camping in the African bush where you can completely disconnect from every day life and get back in touch with nature, then don’t hesitate to book this trip. You will be surrounded by wild animals, bird sounds and highly experienced staff.
Most Inspirational Moment
Being surrounded by elephants at our camp and canoeing past so many pods of hippo's. They are in abundance here! Seeing so many different bird species, including the carmine bee-eaters' & their nests which only occurs at a certain time of year. Being a part of the best group of adventurist souls on this departure! Canoeing on the Zambezi of course!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our group leader, CB and assistant guide, Julius, were top notch! They were caring, compassionate, extremely knowledgeable (you can ask them anything) and very experienced. I had a great time canoeing with their crew in training, Chuchu. This is not excluding the flycamp crew who tended to our every need and, even though it was camping with basic amenities, they gave us five star service.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Read the trip notes! Everything you need is in there. Make sure you follow the guidelines. I used a large drybag to pack my first 4 days' worth of baggage and had a small shoulder bag that I could keep with me while canoeing for things like binoculars, sunscreen, shades etc. For the warmer months, a sarong or two is very much recommended. You can wet this and cover your shoulders and your legs to keep cool and protect yourself from the sun. The 2x2m tents are actually large enough for two to share. You will have a mattress on a stretcher at the fly camp so you will be elevated from the ground. Take carabiners to clip your items to things like your tent/bag/ the showers. These I found to be super useful. Phone signal is almost non-existent on the trip, so keep this in mind when going back into the wild!
Kilimanjaro
This was a very well organized trip with experienced leaders and very thoughtful, kind people. They made us all feel energized and positive of the hike and our abilities to be able to summit. They stuck to the schedule but were flexible when needed. The food was fabulous too!
Most Inspirational Moment
Reaching Gillman's Point at sunrise with Happiness and the guides and porters at our sides.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Happiness was fabulous! She took care of us very well without mothering us. She gave us realistic expectations and helped us reach our dreams of summitting Kilimanjaro.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Be prepared for the cold and the long hiking hours. It is a challenging hike, be fully prepared - food, medicine, fitness and clothes - but have lots of fun too!
Maglic Magic !!!
A wonderful weeks hiking in the most beautiful surroundings. Sarajevo was an interesting base for some of the walks and the time spent in Mostar was lovely …despite the heavy rain!! It was a pleasure to meet all the other group members, good conversation and fun the whole week. Two of the accommmodation could be described as interesting (run down and dated) ….however, some of the other hotels exceeded expectations and were really of a very good standard.
Most Inspirational Moment
The day hiking Mt Maglic, perfect weather conditions, enjoyed every step even though it was a long day.....and the views were stunning! A real sense of achievement had by all the group.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Saudin was an inspirational young man ....only 25 but so advanced beyond his years. He was a font of all knowledge on the trip, socialable, fun and took excellent care of the group.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Do not be put off by the scrambling part of the Mt Maglic hike, or having to use wires - they are not always necessary! It is along day, but many senior members in the group absolutely nailed it !! ......and do take the last few steps to the summit from the saddle ...there is an option of a lesser exposed route up and down ....100% worth the effort!!
Private Family tour Week in Jordon 20th-28th Sept.2025
We had the most incredible private family tour in Jordan from 20th – 28th September 2025 with a group of 12, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Everything was exceptionally well organized, and the whole journey flowed smoothly from start to finish.
Our host Abdullah was outstanding — warm, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. He was with us every step of the way, always making sure we were comfortable, while also giving us plenty of free time to explore and enjoy things at our own pace. That balance made the trip feel relaxed yet rich with experiences. Traveling with 12 family members could have been complicated, but with Abdullah, it was effortless.
The hotels were first-class throughout — clean, modern, and very comfortable. Each one felt like the perfect place to recharge after an adventurous day.
The itinerary was perfectly paced and covered the very best of Jordan:
Amman – We started in the capital, exploring its history, culture, and vibrant city life.
Jerash – The ancient Roman ruins were breathtaking and gave us a real sense of Jordan’s heritage.
Madaba & Mount Nebo – The mosaics and biblical history were fascinating, and the views were unforgettable.
Petra – Truly the highlight of the trip! Walking through the Siq and seeing the Treasury for the first time was magical. Exploring the vast site at our own pace made it even more special.
Wadi Rum – The desert landscapes were surreal. Our jeep tour and time under the stars in the desert were unforgettable family moments.
Aqaba – We enjoyed time by the Red Sea, relaxing and soaking up the sunshine.
The Dead Sea – Floating in the salt water was an incredible experience and the perfect way to unwind at the end of the trip.
Every stop was memorable, and having Abdullah to guide us with insight and care made it all the more meaningful.
Jordan is a spectacular country, but what made this trip truly exceptional was the personal touch, flexibility, and hospitality we experienced. It felt like so much more than just a tour — it was a family adventure filled with warmth, learning, and unforgettable memories.

Amazing Trip, Amazing Guide
Despite unexpected illness we had a wonderful and rewarding trip.
Most Inspirational Moment
Bonding with our group leader, Jeffry, and the other hikers.
Thoughts on Group Leader
My wife got food poisoning the night before starting our hike - we had to take an ambulance at 3AM from our hotel in Argentiere to a hospital in Sallanches. Because of this she was unable to participate in most of the hikes. Our group leader, Jeffry Oonk, did an amazing job accommodating us. He could have just let us go off on our own - instead, he went out of his way to ensure that we were able to find our way to the next accommodation to still be a part of the group. On days where the trip was relatively simple, I hiked with the group; when it was more involved, I traveled with my wife. Despite this setback we both still had an absolutely wonderful trip, and both felt full part of the "team" for the duration. This was due not only to our fellow hikers, but mainly due to the extra effort Jeff put in to make it happen. Thanks, Jeff, for everything you did!
