Discover South Africa's Garden Route

Our tour guide, Malik, and driver, Mr Henzel, were brilliant. We enjoyed the itinerary although we added a second game drive before we left because we thought a bit more of the game reserves was desirable. Malik made those arrangements for us. He was continually looking for ways to make everyone happy.

Most Inspirational Moment

Table Mountain, the penguins, the game drive, lunch on the waterfront in Hermanus, the boat ride and nature hike in Knysna, Tsitsikama, the botanical garden walk.

Thoughts on Group Leader

He went above and beyond expectations. Was well liked by everyone in the group. Had invaluable local knowledge. Everyone was impressed with how he handled the road flooding situation. He was calm and got us all to safety, made sure we were able to get dinner and got us into a charming hotel.

Exceptional Holiday from Start to Finish

I’ve just returned from this tour and can honestly say it exceeded all expectations.

From start to finish, the trip was exceptionally well organised, with every detail thoughtfully planned.

The cycling routes offered a perfect way to take in Kerala’s beautiful coastline and local culture. Each day brought something new and memorable, with a fantastic range of activities and experiences that really made the trip special – with lots of surprise cultural experiences that we did not expect.

The food was excellent throughout, fresh, varied, and full of flavour and the hotels were of a great standard. Having access to swimming pools at many of the accommodations was a real bonus and a great way to relax after a day’s cycling.

Overall, this was a truly fantastic holiday. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a well-organised, active trip with great food, comfortable accommodation, and unforgettable experiences.

Most Inspirational Moment

There are so many! From the local wedding we visited, to learning and watching local craftsman keeping traditions alive to all of the super friendly locals and even a Hindu procession.

Thoughts on Group Leader

A special mention must go to our group leader and his team, Safi, Shibu and Vinnie who were outstanding throughout, professional, supportive, and genuinely passionate about making sure everyone had the best possible experience.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Don't be put off if you're not a regular cyclist or haven't been on a bike for a while, the route is very flat and there is no hurry or race to get to the next stop, its a very good relaxed pace.

Cycling Morocco

Absolutely fantastic, you can focus on your cycling, the culture and the natural beauty. Everything else is taken care of.

Most Inspirational Moment

Having lunch 4000ft up a mountain.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Muhamid was a fantastic leader, as well as all the other members,

Advice for Potential Travellers

Do it!

A fantastic country to visit

Colombia is the second most bio-diverse country in the world behind Brazil. The landscape is truly breath-taking. Hilly / mountainous and very green and lush. A bit like New Zealand only with lots more trees, really beautiful. We felt safe the entire time, it’s reputation for being a “dodgy place” is no longer justified, the days of drugs and violence are in the past.

Most Inspirational Moment

Many things. The Tatacoa desert (not strictly a desert) is an amazing landscape, the likes of which I have never seen before. Also really loved Communa 13 in Medellin and Cartgena.

Thoughts on Group Leader

David was simply the best guide I have ever had, really went out of his way to be helpful, such a genuinely nice guy.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Book it, you won't be disappointed. Be sure to take binoculars, there are so many birds here!

Discover Morocco

I really enjoyed the tour and seeing Morocco this way. Long days on the bus, but so worth it to take in the sights and scenery along the way. Exceptional guide and the logistics are handled extremely well. We were able to enjoy the trip knowing that all of the small details were taken care of.

Most Inspirational Moment

Marrakesh was amazing and the Sahara was beautiful. The final stop in Ouirgane was beautiful and a relaxing way to close out the trip.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Ayoub was really amazing. He led us with 100% professionalism and was extremely kind and knowledgeable. The Ramadan holiday must have been quite challenging for him to be energetic and present for the first 6 days, but he was doing a great job at all times. This group had a huge age range and he managed the 20 to 80 year olds with great ease.

Highlights of Kerala

The trip had just the right mix of cultural experiences & free time. Our guide, Biju, made the trip. His knowledge, story telling, help & advice meant we felt safe & supported, and could concentrate on just enjoying the tour. Without him it wouldn’t have been as good.

Most Inspirational Moment

Walking safari in Periyar, public laundry in Kochin, fish market in Kovalam, the hills in Thekkady, the houseboat tour, weighing the babies in the snake temple, cooking with the family.... and all the unexpected moments- religious celebrations in the street, local children, the meals, the sunsets, the bonding as a group.

Thoughts on Group Leader

The success of the trip was entirely down to Biju. He was organised & clearly communicated the itinerary each day. He helped answer questions, solve issues & pre-empted our needs. He made sure the activities were enjoyable for all 4 people on the trip, catering to different abilities & interests with care & humour. His stories & cultural knowledge really bought the places to life & gave us a unique insight into the life of the local people. I would highly recommend him as a tour leader.
