1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
There were lots of memorable moments. - The people. The small group. The competent and caring leaders. The snow!! The autumn colours. The slug! Being somewhere very different from my subtropical Aus. The drawing artists in the group. The effort taken to accommodate dietary issues. (The locals were a bit variable in their understanding.)2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Bring clothes for ALL weathers. Bring those waterproof trousers and jackets. (But we did replace them.) Attach something distinctive to your bags - camera bags can look very alike. Learn a few useful phrases in Spanish. (Not necessary, but would have made things a little easier, and been more polite to the locals.)3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
We used local hotels and restaurants and smiled a lot. We could have been better at each of us carrying our own water bottle. The locals don't seem to have caught the idea of a reusable coffee cup. A couple of meals were 'in transit' and we used some plastic plates and cutlery. I didn't shop and don't know what might have been available. Everyone seemed to know how to behave in the National Park areas.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Very good. I would recommend this trip.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.
