I have been on several of your trips, but this one rates as one of the best. Anaid our guide was very knowledgeable and gave an unbiased account of the homelands war which was extremely interesting and made me want to learn more about the Balkans, so already looking in the brochure for next year.
The way Anaid our guide brought the history alive in conjunction with visiting the museums made me feel that I could understood what the people experienced.
He was extremely knowledgeable on the history of the countries. In addition he ensured everyone was okay and that he genuinely wanted us to enjoy our trip

This tour was very comprehensive, taking in many of China’s top sites. This does mean alot of travelling between points but what you see definitely makes up for that. The hightlight for me in Beijing was the Great Wall appearing on a steep ridge. Onto Xian the scale and individual details of the Terracotta Warriers amazed everyone. Seeing the Giant Panda’s so close and active by being first visitors of the day was brilliant. This is busy trip with optional shows in the evenings and stunning Yangshou a chance to improve your Cooking, Cycling and Calligraphy skills!
Crusing down the Yangtse surrounded by mighty cliffs, the excursion on smaller boats up the side gorges ending up being rowed in wooden boats was an adventure
Chris (Christened Panda by the group) was fantastic with 15 years experience she made the sometimes complex journey on trip smooth
Bring a robust cup for overnight trains (there are 3) and a wheeled case as China's stations are big and in the centre of cities often a trek to the bus. If your a big city fan think of booking additional sites in Shanghai to relax after the trip.
A fantastic group walking holiday in the scenic South of France exploring hidden gems in the countryside. Our guide, Stephanie was absolutely great, organising us and looking after the well being of everyone. Menton was a good choice for base as it was a vibrant and pretty town, with a good beach (though stony), many shops and restaurants along with an interesting museum.
The trip combined local walking with using the areas transport system. It was lovely to explore on the local buses and trains and visit medieval villages in the hillsides. Having group lunches together overlooking a fantastic view of the riviera or a small hidden village was wonderful. Good team spirit in the group resulting in very chatty and lively group dinners.
Stephanie was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She welcomed us with a smile and was friendly and encouraging to all throughout the trip. Her organisational skills were superb and she was keen to give choices on the walks if some of the group wanted to visit a particular location. Stephanie was very knowledgeable about the area and always willing to answer questions and give advice.
There was quite a lot of downhill walking, so worth practising if you don't like going downhill.
An excellent holiday. A fantastic group, and an excellent group leader and driver. A beautiful country and excellent intinerary. We had a good mix of challenging and more enjoyable rides. A well organised trips the only thing that really let it down were the flights – they were indirect with short connection times, and the flight home left at 6.25 in the morning – not a great end to an otherwise excellent trip.
Exploring the various islands and taking in the beautiful scenery from the bike was very inspiring - I will definitely return to Croatia.
The group leader, Vladimir, was very good. We enjoyed his company, he was good fun, very organised and very knowlegeable. He was also very calm and reassuring in a couple of difficult moments. The only disappointment was on day two when several of us had to take the support bus instead of completing the ride as we ran into some time pressures. We would have preferred to have started the ride an hour earlier so we could have finished it comfortably.
The brouchure suggests you need a good level of fitness but not so much experience on a bike. However, I think some level of bike experience is desirable. Most of the rides were on road or track but we had a couple of short off road sections, plus the first two days had quite challenging hills. I'd also suggest all travellers bring their passports, E111 cards and insurance details with them at all times. Sadly we had a couple of injuries that were more difficult to resolve as the individuals were not carrying these items with them at the time. I'd also recommend cyclists ensure they have snacks to bring with them on the bike as some days we went quite long distances before a lunch break.
This was a fantastic holiday with a real wilderness feel. We camped in some stunning locations miles away from any other people and the scenery and wildlife were incredible.
Wild camping out in the middle of nowhere where the stars lit up the night sky and there were no other humans for miles around. Watching a huge herd of elephant bathing and playing in the waterhole. Finding a family of desrt elephants and wathcing the eat and play.
Hans was incredibly well organised. He lead the team well and the way they set up the camp each night and the amazing food that they created over the camp fires made the holiday experience exceptional. Mathias was the guid in my vehicle and he had eagle eyes for spotting the wildlife, he was very knowledgeable about all things Namibia; there were no questions he couldn't answer and he had a great sense of humour so there were lots of laughs on the long drives.
Be prepared for all extremes of temperatures, we had some very cold nights but also some warmer evenings and some hot days.
This was a most outstanding trip, with excellent walks of grade 5. The scenery was magical, the Dolomites being very different to many mountain ranges I have previously walked in. The transport of both buses and ski lifts to the start points worked perfectly. It is an area I would highly recommend for its history and breathtaking ups and downs!
All the walks exceeded my expectations, including the scrambles and climbs.
Emily and Eric were brilliant and looked after us well, chosing the walks to fit the group.
Have no hesitation to book but come out fit, you'll enjoy the walking all the more.
Excellent Walks, Excellent Accommodation and Excellent Leader
The ascent of Montesombre & stunning views all the way to the sea-? 50Km away
She was quite wonderful and really took the trouble to get the best experience for us - checking the weather by getting up early and driving to vantage points to see what the weather was really like before setting off & adapting walks as necessary.
Do this one, don't be nervous - we had stunning views & did some scrambling - all done safely through good planning & excellent leader
You really have to go on this trip! The scenery is amazing with a mixture of dramatic mountains and green hills. Lovely family run hotel with very high class rooms and food. Great leaders (Emily and Eric) who are very experienced and helpful and really want you to have a great holiday.
The Dolomites scenery is stunning with mountains with spiky peaks - very unusual. Very green parts too.
The leaders (Eric and Emily) gave me great confidence and both of them treated you as an individual, and really wanted you to have the best holiday ever! Both were very kind.
Take good boots, poles and some warm clothes.
This trip covers a huge amount in a short space of time. The scenery through the Andes is breathtaking and other highlights included Cusco, Macchu Picchu and the homestay on Amantani Island-basic but adequate. There were a significant number of early starts and long bus journeys. Some of the toilets were undesirable and it was difficult to obtain lunch-best to organise a packed lunch before leaving. I would recommend about $1000 American for meals and daily expenses. At times the tour guide gave insufficient information. On the whole a truly unique and memorable experience.
Visiting Macchu Picchu and Amantani Island.
Brilliant in Nasca, but failed to bring the group together. Had a tendency to speak to a few of us and could have been more informative during the long bus rides. Occasionally put his interests first.
Be prepared for early starts and long bus rides. Bring clothes that can be layered as there is a wide range of temperatures. Snacks and your own toilet roll are very handy.
A spectacularly picturesque area with soaring mountains, lush green valleys, forests, lakes and pretty villages.
Sitting outdoors on top of the Zugspitze (ca. 9000 ft.) enjoying the stunning views and eating Apfelstrudel and drinking Löwenbräu on a gorgeous September afternoon!

I would advise decent walking boots, and poles if you use them, and waterproof jacket and trousers as it can certainly rain here. Take insect repellant and bite cream too. The area is photogenic so a good camera with plenty of memory is a must. I forgot mine!!! Make sure you have the extensive trip notes as the walks can be quite complicated. Due to an oversight we didn`t receive ours and would have been at a loss, but another member of the group who we became friendly with shared hers. This issue has been resolved with Exodus and we still had a wonderful time. The paths are well signposted anyway and, as mentioned in another review, the recommended routes can be customised to suit your own tastes.
