Overall, this was one of the best trips ever. One suggestion I have, in the past the tour stared off with a tipping kitty that the CEO would collect at the beginning of the tour. Please bring the back. It is very confusing when the people on the tour must figure out how much to tip the drivers and other axillary staff. Please bring it back!!!!!!

Witness the grandeur of ancient Angkor Wat – the famed UNESCO World Heritage site, see the enigmatic faces of Bayon temple, confront the tragedy of the recent past with sobering visits to the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S21) and the Killing Fields of Choeung Ek and be blessed by a local monk. Visit local farms, homes and the floating village of Kampong Phluck to rub shoulders with the locals and tuck into some delicious local cuisine – this is the perfect snapshot of the many wonders inside Cambodia!

We have nice experience accommodation with our tour guide Maria and Diego cant wait for another Europe adventure with my family. Thank you very much Europamundo128077;
were great! It was well set up, but you took away ! That was one of the things I was looking forward to. The day we were to go to Edinburgh castle there was a gas leak so we went to St Giles, it was a trade off. But St Giles is fabulous! We had a wonderful time & met some great people. Who could ask for more. Weather was wonderful as well.
Enter a world of extremes where night looks like day, day looks like night and regardless of the season, the scenery's more than perfect. Leave the Arctic Circle behind and discover northern Norway's captivating sights and long, fabled history. Begin in the capital, Oslo, and make your way to Trondheim, the Viking city home to the Nidaros Cathedral and the remains of St Olav, Norway's patron saint. Explore the rugged, unbelievably picturesque Lofoten Islands by land and water before finishing in Tromso, a vibrant city famed for its cultural offerings despite its relative isolation.
Capture the spirit of China on this 12-day trip from Shanghai to Beijing. From fast-paced modern cities to the well-preserved remnants of a long and storied history, this adventure reveals the many sides of one of the world’s great cradles of civilisation. It’s important to contrast the big and the bold with quiet moments and real connections. That’s why the tour of the Terracotta Warriors finishes with lunch at a local family home and why time at Shaolin temple, the birthplace of kung fu, is contrasted with boisterous Beijing. Whether you’re scaling the Great Wall or sharing crispy Peking duck with your fellow travellers, this trip is packed with unforgettable moments.
Scotland's natural beauty and its historical legacy were the highlight of the trip. Many photos of the countryside were taken and will be used in creating original paintings. I appreciated as well the many occasions we had to hear history from the point of view of the Scots. An excellent balance between nature and human knowledge.
The Irish Experience was a wonderful trip around Ireland and into Northern Ireland. The tour director and bus driver were excellent pointing out the wonderful sights and Irish folklore and getting to our destinations on time and ahead of the crowds at Blarney Castle and the Ring of Kerry.
The comfort level trip allows for the traveller to fully experience Italy as a local with their off the beaten track options but with the convenience of travelling comfort, local guidance and added inclusions.
