Mediterranean Family Vacation and Tour Packages

Our 6-day journey on the Marangu Route was handled by Aardvark Expeditions, and we couldn't have asked for better service! As a group of only five people from India, we received excellent personal service and attention from every member of the team. Our guides (Bariki and John) were very supportive, knowledgeable and patient, while the chefs (Erik and Abuu) created tasty meals that energised us every day for the long trek ahead. We were referred to Aardvark Expeditions by several friends, and now we understand why! The sales team is very prompt and friendly, and offers excellent service. The whole experience from booking to reaching the summit was flawless!

Great itinerary for a short trip. Having 2 nights is some locations made the tour made for a more relaxing trip. Hotels were lovely. Unfortunately Christmas markets were not open in the mornings when we visited. The Bernina express was delightful with wonderful snow covered scenery. The trip up to the Jungfrau was absolutely amazing and definitely a 'bucket list' experience. Our tour director was fantastic. So helpful, kind and gave us great information about all the places we visited.

Itinerary was great and this was the main reason we chose this trip and Sri Lanka has fantastic sites and culture to experience - unfortunately we counted on having an appropriate guide and tour director who could assist with making the most of the experience - unfortunately our guide was not fluent in English, could not answer questions or explain the sites, culture and history in any meaningful way and we were forced to communicate critical aspects of the itinerary with him on whatsap, initiated by us not the tour director - the worst tour director I have had in nearly 45 years of travel and over 50 tours

This trip was a last minute decision and it was one of the best that I have made. It was a very full itinerary but there was lots of time and a full explanation of what we were doing and seeing. The food was very good, as was the accommodation. Our tour director was extremely knowledgeable and the group size was just right.

I did this tour and really enjoyed it. The itinerary was packed but fun. Beaches, islands, waterfalls, a bit of culture, and some beautiful nature spots. Saona Island and Los Haitises were my favorite parts. The guides were friendly, the transport was comfortable, and everything was well organized, so I didn’t have to worry about planning anything. It’s a great option if you want to see a lot of the Dominican Republic in a short time. Overall, super solid tour and definitely worth it!

I just returned from my recent trip to the Dominican Republic (November 2025). It was a last minute trip and I went Solo. As a woman, who traveled alone, it was vital to find an organized way to enjoy the Dominican Republic for safety and best use of my time. I found Charlie the Traveler, who's organization had a 6 day itinerary available for me. The price was very worth it. They arranged all the airport pick up and drop off, hotel arrangements and all the day trips. The excursions were very diverse and gave me the opportunity to see many of the important landmarks in just 6 days. I wish I had stayed longer but I had to go back to work. I got to see the beaches, mountains, caves and historical locations. We went to Santo Domingo, Punta Cana, Saona, and many other places. I highly recommend using them whether it's a solo or group trip. We communicated via Whatsapp everyday and they always checked in on me and were available if any issues arose. I would definitely use their services again with my friends or family or solo again!
