The accommodations were variable, always clean and with hot water but some places were tired and in need of updating. Air conditioning was a must as it was hot and humid, however most were noisy and not good for a light sleeper.
The staff were always helpful and friendly.
Food in the hotels and restaurants was plentiful and there was always fish or chicken for those less adventurous, accompanied by mountains of rice or pasta.
We were able to meet the locals, often visiting their homes, and learn about their cultures and beliefs. Also how they lived off the land and produced most of the food they need for the villages and to sell at the market stalls. We were able to try our hand at weaving, dying cloth and making garments. All extremely interesting and an education.
We experienced Kayaking, canoeing, climbing through the tree canopies in the forest along rope bridges plus lots of other activities. All under the guidance and care of our very informative tour guide Oscar and driver Prince.
Our tours through the castles was quite daunting, learning how the slave trade treated people was shocking.
All in all our holiday was an exceptional experience, if not quite exhausting. We were disappointed with the lack of wildlife but was not through lack of exciting safari drives trying to find the animals, with so much else going on our cameras were never idol.

This trip exceeded my expectations as we saw a huge number of animals and birds. We saw lions on a daily basis and several leopards. I found the camping a lot harder than expected , particularly as it was hot so it was fantastic to be accommodated at such a lovely hotel as the Pioneers Lodge at the end of the trip.
The 2 men led by KD worked like trojans putting up and taking down the campsite and cooking amazing meals all over a wood stove. Joe the trip leader was fantastic too. A big thanks to all three who worked tirelessly to ensure the trip went well.
The drives were long and the roads bumpy but it wasn’t really a problem.We had a great group so it was nice to sit back ,have a chat and relax.Overall a trip that was enjoyable and will be remembered.
My holiday to Bali was absolutely incredible. The trip was so well organised, and I genuinely don’t think I could have had such a fun, seamless, and authentic experience without our amazing guide, Ovinda.
We started in Canggu, diving straight into the hustle and bustle with fantastic dinners and nightlife that instantly bonded the group. During our free time, Ovinda even organised a ring-making class within minutes — a thoughtful gesture that saved us endless scrolling and left me with a beautiful, personal souvenir.
Next, we headed to Ubud, where the scenery was breathtaking and the experiences unforgettable. The Balinese cooking class was a standout (the food was incredible!), and visiting the Monkey Forest was both fun and fascinating. Ovinda took the time to explain the temples and their cultural significance — something she did at every destination with genuine passion and insight.
Climbing Mount Batur on my birthday was an absolute highlight. Watching the sunrise from the summit was nothing short of magical. We followed it with a visit to the rice terraces, where I captured my “money shot” on the famous swing — a true bucket-list moment!
On Gili Trawangan, we swam in crystal-clear waters, ate delicious local food, and cycled around the island — a simple yet perfect way to explore. Ovinda even surprised me with a birthday cake, making the day feel extra special and heartwarming.
From start to finish, the trip was flawlessly organised. The hotels were top quality, the itinerary balanced adventure and relaxation perfectly, and every personal recommendation from Ovinda was spot on. She kept us safe, well cared for, and always smiling — whether we were enjoying a Bintang or unwinding with a massage.
The friendships formed and memories made over those ten days will stay with me forever. It truly was the trip of a lifetime — all thanks to and the wonderful Ovinda.

Fractured island. Worth a visit. Ruined crusader castles set on high rocky mountains. Abandoned town on empty beach. The idiotic, senseless minds of politicians overriding the desire of Cypriots to live on one island together. Guide excellent and very knowledgeable and passionate about his country. Packed lunches absolutely legendary. Accommodation really good. Transport to and from walks excellent. Safe driver who goes above and beyond to help. Airport transfers on time and reliable. Yes a great walking holiday

This was our second Nat Geo tour experience and we loved them both. Great pick of scenic and cultural experiences, great guides and well located accommodations. This tour of New Zealand was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Our Costa Rica experience exceeded our expectations. Great organisation, transport and hotels. Fabulous national park visits where we saw lots of wildlife. Knowledgeable & interesting guides.
The two tour leader Wilfred and Tarik were superb. They moulded into the group with their friendly manner but remained very professional and knowledgeable throughout. Did they train in the Happy Store?
