Southern Africa Eco Tours

An excellent tour from start to finish. The meet and greet set the tone with Isobel the first evening. Well organised with very good communication. Travelled in an extremely comfortable bus. Bus driver Peter and tour guide Isobel first class and couldn’t do enough to make this a very enjoyable trip in meeting everyone’s needs and ensuring all the sights of the South Island were covered. Would highly recommend this tour.

We had a great time on our recent trip to New Zealand. The tour leader and bus driver are a credit to this company as they were so organised and got us all to our destinations on time every day. They also kept us interested with their knowledge of each areas and the tour director kept us informed about the extra activities we could do and what was happening each day. Totally recommend AAT Kings!

I really enjoyed this excellent whistle-stop tour of Malaysia and Singapore. The trip only touches the surface of KL and Singapore and so I booked extra days for more in depth exploration which both deserve. Our excellent leader (Sam) went above and beyond with extras, including fun group dinners out (with dancing!) and a memorable sunset dinner cruise for our last night. There is a lot of free time on Langkawi and for those of the group not committed to all day on the beach, he organised a day trip around the island to visit mangrove swamps, a traditional village and the 'must-do' cable car and sky-bridge. The accommodation is of a good standard, although lacking character in the big cities, but then locations were excellent for individual exploration during downtime periods. The hotel in Malacca in a converted old town house is fantastic. At the homestay, rooms are very basic but this is compensated for by a beautiful lakeside location, charming hosts and great food. Altogether, a memorable trip which has wetted my appetite for further Malaysian exploration.

Thank you to Diego for going above and beyond guiding us through Argentina and Brazil so informatively, attentively and with a great sense of humour throughout the tour. An excellent trip combining the highlights of these two countries - l would recommend the boat trip at lguazu Falls. llha Grande was a tropical paradise island.worth visiting. Only downside is that l would have preferred 2 nights at the eco lodge La Cantera hotel as it was such a lush, beautiful location. Apart from this, everything was amazing😊

The Sri Lanka tour was excellent. The country offers a great variety of historical sites, wildlife and landscapes. The tour was well paced without ever feeling rushed. It does include a couple of early starts and there is a fair amount of barefoot walking within the temple complexes. Our guide Ash (ably supported by the driver Damit and assistant Harsha) was exceptional. He clearly has a love of his home country and was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history and the significance of the sites we visited. He was a great story teller and brought the past to life. Ash was always very attentive to the group to ensure we had the opportunity to try local foods and drinks and to visit local markets so as to get a greater sense of the life of everyday Sri Lankans. One highlight was a short visit to a family whose livelihood was dependent upon growing and then using every part of the coconut. A cracking trip which I can thoroughly recommend.

Really enjoyable trip. Superb mountain scenery. Definitely a part of Argentina less visited by European tourists. The music evening at the local pena was a great night out. Lucia, our guide was brilliant and ensured everything went smoothly.
