Walking the Magna Via Francigena was challenging - many steep hills, mud and rain. They organised everything else so that all we had to do was walk, making the walk much easier. The scenery was stunning.
Our trip today was incredible. Because of your organization and putting the right people in place, we were able to experience another culture and world so different from ours.
Our driver, Manuel, was wonderful and such a lovely man. We would like to be neighbors to he and his wife . He not only drive us to Tarifa, but walked with us through the town. Then ushered us to the ferry, waited for us to return, and took us back to our hotel. Mohammad, our guide in Tangier was very well versed on the world on which he was raised, and offered us insights into the past and present of his culture and country. Very enjoyable!
The Van Gogh museum is unique as we are able to dive in the complex mind of a painter in a time of great change. Through the different steps in his career, in Holland, Paris, Arles or Saint Remi we see a dramatic evolution of an artist in constant search for himself and for the world. And this in a carreer that lasted only 9 years. The only advantage about only selling one painting in his whole career is his legacy: An astonishing collection of 200 works that enables us to meet the most puzzling painter of his time.
We will have 2 hours to explore the entire collection. Mostly in small groups there will be space for questions and as the artist still remains a mystery, discussion. More than only a tour about an artist, it is a tour about what it means to be an artist and what approach artists have towards the world that surrounds them.
The walking route was nicely maintained, with the mix of hikes across the island. I literally have seen all the gems of La Gomera! The extra days on the beach after almost a week of hikes was amazing as well. It was my first self-guided walking tour, I was a bit concerned if I’ll be able to complete (not being really super fit), but it went so good - instructions are well written, it was easy to follow and on the route my hiking shoes and walking sticks helps a million. I was able to both work out and to unwind. Thank you for all organizational support, good choice of hotels and walking guidance.

Delivery & pick up of bikes was seamless. E bikes were excellent, possibly the best we have ever used. Maps, both paper and & electronic were good. Our only issue was 2 hotel upgrades were both some distance from the town centres which was not ideal. Centrally located accommodated would always be the best option. Overall an excellent trip for those interested in military history of the Western Front.
Great trip! Well organised, great hotels and evening meals. Bikes were in excellent condition. Communication with company excellent. Only thing we weren’t so keen on was the navigation app so resorted to google maps. Generally really pleased.

Fabulous and easy even for non cyclists (hire an e-bike though). Trip notes of 30 pages long were not all that helpful and needs to include a simple list of toilets stops, cafes and key sights. It’s easy to use the phone app and also work out which side of the river you should be on.

We booked a private 8 day tour of Romania with this travel operator and they did a fabulous job of making sure we had the best time ever!! They lined us up with a tour guide named Laurentiu. He was fantastic!!! He was extremely knowledgable of all the places we visited throughout Romania. It was all natural for him and it was not scripted and he knew the history of each sight. He was very laid back and was never in a rush. He had a great personality and a good sense of humor. He made our entire trip fun and interesting. He took us to all of the main sights on our itinerary, as well as some off the beaten path sights. We got a true understanding and feeling of what life in Romania is all about. The hotels they booked us in were all conveniently located to all of the main attractions and were all unique boutique type hotels. Lauentui knew where all the great restaurants were along the way and we ate like kings and the food was excellent. Romania is a vast and beautiful country. Everything ran smooth and was perfect. We had the best time anyone could ever ask for. We would highly recommend this company for all your travel needs throughout Romania.

Really lovely hike through Switzerland with lots of options to customize the trail from easy to hard. Hotels were good with comfortable beds and pretty good breakfasts.
A truly memorable holiday which enabled us not only to see parts of the wonderful Lazio countryside that we wouldn’t normally see by car, but also to soak up the atmosphere of the various villages and towns where we stayed.
