West Africa Tours in June 2026

Our tour guide was wonderful. Very knowledgeable about the geology, geography, flora & fauna, and culture of the Canadian Rockies. Adjusted our schedule for weather conditions so that our time at each venue was optimal. Our coach driver was also terrific. Our group was in good hands all week.

It is a fairly full itinerary but we got to see so much and learn so much which is why I travel. Be well rested before you start this tour. We had a 9 hour time difference to catch up on.

I am a novice hiker. While some of the walking was a little more challenging than I had anticipated – there are steep hills – I may have been put off if I had known that first: that would have been a shame because I thoroughly enjoyed it and can happily recommend it. The trip was well organised, could flex to the changes in the weather, has led by a friendly pro who knew his stuff and kept us motivated and safe. The generous, home-cooked meals were delicious, and the accommodation, though basic, was comfortable. Overall, it was a wonderful introduction to hiking, to this beautiful part of Spain, and to the warm and welcoming group I was lucky to join.

Where to start! What an AMAZING holiday. Our guide and driver was KK. He was so calm, knowledgeable, funny and VERY patient with our group of 11 . He had such respect for the animals and the countryside. KK seemed to have a sixth sense as to where to find the best places to view beautiful animals like the leopard, wild dogs, elephants, lions, buffalo and many other animals. The wild camping was fantastic (basic but brilliant). The support staff at each site were so caring and spoilt us with amazing meals. The easiest way to describe this trip - Each day another life affirming experience came our way. NOTE: The schedule IS full on with early starts every morning. The BEST holiday I have ever had 😁

My friend and I wanted to go on an adventurous trip that kept us busy and wasn’t boring. In my research I had found this New Zealand trip from CharlieTheTraveler. It looked amazing and I was impressed when we booked the trip, the company prepared us thoroughly. By the time we left, I barely had to plan anything to get ready which was so great! It was also great to see all aspects of New Zealand, both natural and cultural. The cable car ride up Bob’s Peak was a unique experience. The views were breathtaking and the entire tour was well-organized. That was the moment I couldn’t believe where I was and that it was all real!

My trip manager was amazing and made the trip! The way that it was organised and run was well done in the sense I felt like I got the most out of my trip but also had a really relaxing time. I had a lot of fun !
