We wanted a once in a lifetime holiday and that's what we got. I've tried to think of any negatives but honestly can't. Obviously, this kind of holiday isn't for everyone - it is an ecolodge in the rainforest that you have to zip wire into, but if you're ready to embrace whatever happens, you'll have an amazing time.read more

The staff and guests were great. We had a lot of fun together. I loved hunting the lionfish and having a mission with every dive. We also got insanely close to some nurse sharks during our last day. The island is so peaceful. swimming out to SpongeBob Island was also quite memorable. The island is on a coral reef, so you could pretty much dive anywhere anytime you wanted. The boat rides were only 3 to 5 minutes to other dive sites. read more

There is no single memorable part of the trip that stands out, but overall the diversity of the experience across the length and breadth of the country will be memorable for a long time to come. The trip interacted with local life in many locations and gave a good insight into the Uzbek lifestyle and it's people, culture, food, history etc.read more

I almost hesitate to write a glowing review—only because I’d like to keep this absolutely fantastic retreat a secret! For anyone looking to recharge, practice Spanish, hike, or simply take in the breathtaking mountain views, I couldn’t recommend it more highly.read more

Alison Male21 Oct 2025
It was excellent. We hesitated a little before booking because it felt quite expensive but it was really worth it. We are so glad we decided to do Cape Town this way. It was the people. The scenery was beautiful and the food was amazing but we most enjoyed meeting local people, getting to know them a little and hearing their stories.read more

Lynn McCarthy16 Oct 2025
This holiday surpassed my expectations mainly due to the way that Angeliki at the tour operator produced a bespoke itinerary which allowed us to have a great experience at the additional sites that we wanted to visit. In addition Dimitris was always on hand to make sure that we wanted for nothing even going as far as selecting a local bakery and supermarket for our unique needs. His knowledge of his country, easy manner and good communication with the local guides made for a superb experience ...read more

Excellent. It was a late booking but was still extremely well organised - everyone from booking all way through to escort back to airport were helpful and super friendly.

Highlights were the quietness and tranquillity of Transylvania, its rurality and interesting landscapes, the painted monasteries and the fortified churches, but perhaps best of all were the painted timber churches. These were just simply outstandingly beautiful to us and we would love to see them again. read more

I would highly recommend this holiday. Our hosts attention to detail was second to none. Each day was action packed and well thought through. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable and the food delicious. The 7 other people on the holiday were delightful - everyone was very kind, friendly and considerate, and we had lots of laughs along the way!read more

It was a fantastic, well-organised adventure. Our host company did a great job with transfers, packing guidance, and itinerary planning. The local team was outstanding and the Azores themselves are breathtaking. We’re already thinking about returning to explore more islands and try the snorkelling we missed. Highly recommended for nature lovers, families, and anyone seeking a meaningful, memorable escape.read more
