Safe and sound back in the UK, sadly back at work but it was a great trip. The weather was good to us and we had fantastic views from most of the summits. We made it to the summit of Cotopaxi but unfortunately not Chimborazo due to the conditions at the moment.

We were also lucky to catch the end of Carnival with the end of our trip which was an unsuspected bonus!
I would like to make a special mention of our guide Wilson, who did a great job of looking after us and keeping us entertained. He really went out of his way to make sure that we had everything we could want and again would recommend his skills, experience and company to anyone interested in walking in Ecuador.

The boat, Eric, the crew, and the naturalist were all perfect. Thanks so much for your help. Could not have turned out better if I had planned 6 months in advance instead of 6 days. Again Thank You!

Our trip went well and we had a very good time on the Letty boat. I believe we probably had the 2 best naturalists in the Galapagos – their names Cesi and Maria. They were very fun loving and entertaining. The boat was comfortable and we had little in the way of seasickness. Our connections were a little tight and it would be better to arrive in Quito a day ahead as all luggage did not arrive on time, but that was only a minor problem. The hotel you booked for us in Quito was excellent. Thanks.

We had a great time in Quito and the Galapagos, thanks. Everything went even better than expected – we really liked the friendly hotel, and couldn’t fault anything on the Mary Anne. I have already recommended you to a friend!

It has been the perfect trip. The accommodations were really nice excluding Banos (but I think that the town has not much more to offer).Your partner volcano climbing agency has provided a really outstanding service (precise,accurate,friendly) thanks to Rami and Wil the climbing guides (a real nice guy).On our side we have been very happy to achieve a 100% success rate in our climbing activity despite despite some very nasty weather on Cotopaxi. At the final end I have to make you my best compliments for the excellent service you provided us.Talk you soon

The Paine trek was fantastic. After hearing horror stories from other travellers about the gale-force winds & horizontal rain, I couldn’t believe my luck when we had 4 days of blue sky and only a little bit of wind on the last day. Our guide, Jay (Chaid is his real name I think, he’s from Turkey) was brilliant. He couldn’t have done more for us, sorting out a few things in the hotel as well as making sure we didn’t have to worry about anything other than putting one foot in front of the other.

Thanks again for your help with organising it all, I’ve got some great photos to make everyone jealous with.

I just wanted to report that I had a great time while in Chile (28Nov – 18 Dec). Everyone in there was very friendly (one local gave me a free guided tour after I arrived, and took me to lunch) I was lucky with the weather in Patagonia so I had great views all the way around the circuit and the group I was with (only 3 others and I got a tent to myself) were very friendly and the guide (Eduardo) excellent. The Atacama stars were all I was hoping for. Some excellent shooting starts and clear nights. Good tours of flamingos, geysers and ancient forts there too.

I wanted to thank you both for your help with my Bolivia trip with my sister the last few weeks.

I consider that you fulfilled your side of the contract for the tour, even if the itinerary ended up having to be slightly  different than planned.

» Bolivia Uyuni Salt Flats 4WD Tour

Quotation Mark
We both thoroughly enjoyed the trip and all went very smoothly – pick-ups, tours, hotels the lot – I think I liked the Uyuni tours people best but it´d be close were it a competition. The staff in the hotel in Puno were probably the most helpful of anywhere but all the hotels were clean and comfortable so we´ve no complaints on the accommodation front and all the guides we met en-route were knowledgeable, polite and helpful.
Thanks for all your help with the organisation you can certainly use every one that you used for us again with confidence. We´ve no plans as yet for more trips but you never know when the wanderlust will hit again and
we´ll certainly keep you in mind.

The whole trip was very interesting, and the local organisation was very good. The guides were all very knowledgeable and helpful, and no complaints about any of the hotels.

We were glad we added the Sajama extension – that was  one of the most interesting parts of the trip. I would have liked to see a bit more of Lake Titicaca, and maybe visit Tiwanaku.
Overall it’s a well-thought out trip, and you definitely get to see a lot of the country. The place is fascinating – I think any geologist visiting Bolivia would be in heaven – and certainly lived up to expectations, especially the salt flats.

Our trip was amazing thank you, am still trying to get used to being back!
It’s hard to pick highlights as every place was good, although the Iguazu Falls just did it for me probably as they are so impressive and you get to go right up close to them.
All the tour guides we had were very fiendly and could all speak good English so we didn’t have any problems.
Thank you for all the help over the last few months and helping with all the bookings, flights, etc. We have already started thinking about what our next holiday will be!

Fantastically friendly and intuitive on setting up the holiday of a lifetime and very knowledgeable about travel, hotels, tours, expeditions etc. that it would be difficult to find out about and make decisions on without such sound help and advice.
