The Baja California desert is simply amazing. Discover exotic landscapes with unique flora and fauna. The biggest attraction is the whales. Favored by a cold ocean current, these impressive animals find excellent living conditions here and are very close to the coast. With any luck, you can observe these species of marine mammals closely, especially the gray whale.
The South Island showcases some of its most spectacular scenery throughout its heartland. Head deep into the epic wilderness, tap into M-aori legends and sample some of the finest cuisine around.
Beginning in Christchurch, you’ll have a chance to explore a city rejuvenating itself. Take one of the great rail journeys through the Southern Alps on the TranzAlpine before marvelling at magnificent Franz Josef Glacier. Head to Queenstown and indulge in the fantastic experiences on offer. Greet a new day in peaceful and serene Milford Sound. Surrounded by the majesty of Fiordland National Park, exploring this pristine part of the world will take your breath away.
Four days in Split, the second largest city in Croatia, and "the most beautiful one in the world and beyond" the local people said. This package leaves you enough time at leisure so you can accommodate these best to your wishes, but includes the most needed services.
Absolutely, best week of my life. So much fun, adventure, great food, great company. The whole trip was planned so well and all the activities lined up perfectly. Could not have asked for much better.
Fantastic trip! Loved the food and the hikes. The local guides were fantastic.! They definitely added to the enjoyment of the trip. Beautiful scenery and included activities. Lovely, like- minded group of travellers and an awesome CEO!
I and my friend did a trek to Mardi Himal in December with Upendra which was organized by local travel experts. We booked a service trek with a private guide. The guide was very helpful and knowledgable and the price was very reasonable. We only took the guide and paid for the expenses ourselves, this went fine from starting to the end.
I cannot thank the tour operator enough for the amazing experience of the Everest Base Camp trek. The team, was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, making the journey smooth and enjoyable. It was a dream come true to witness the beauty of the Himalayas. Highly recommended for adventure seekers!
Brilliant Central Highlands + Sirigiya Tour. My parents, husband and I booked a private tour with Aitken Spence to travel to Sirigiya and the Central Highlands for a 5 day 6 night trip and we couldn't be more pleased. From start to finish the whole tour was very well organized thanks to a great organizer and great driver-guide Kusum who was very helpful and approachable throughout the trip. He was also very knowledgeable about Sri Lanka and was able to answer almost every question we asked him about the country! He was also, most importantly, a very safe driver who was highly skilled at driving (a useful skill when navigating the narrow roads of the central highlands). Aitken Spence also booked us in on some of the most amazing hotels we've ever stayed at. The lake views and amazing room upgrade at Heritance Kandalama was particularly memorable. The service and atmosphere at the Heritance Tea Factory, located inside a tea plantation, was also unforgettable. 98 Acres, facing Little Adam's Peak, gave us a wonderful sunrise and star gazing opportunity. Overall a great experience and I highly recommend it.
From Epernay to Paris, cruise on the majestic Marne canal lined with cities full of character. You will discover charming and timeless Paris and its famous monuments, but also Reims, the City of Art and History, home to many UNESCO World Heritage Sites including the Notre-Dame Cathedral. Do not miss out on Hautvillers and its beautiful surrounding vineyards.
