Be prepared for the slower pace of life. The Swahili phrase “pole pole” meaning slowly, slowly is very appropriate. A meal may take more than an hour to
arrive but it will be fresh.

The Safari in ngorongoro and terengeri parks were the best but the siringit serengeti camp was unique ...amazing !!! (more)Simonetta Pancaldi
Arriving in the Serengeti in a huge storm and seeing cheetah chasing gazelles immediately! (more)Naomi Clarke

The most memorable part of the vacation was... seeing the tigers close up, but also spotting a sloth bear and wonderful birdlife. (more)Roland Webster
I absolutely loved my time at Kanha National Park. I was very sad to leave both Kanha and the Courtyard House, but it just means I need to go back again! (more)Whitman Paxton
Seeing tigers and other wildlife was the most exciting part of our vacation. (more)Vivien Benson

The most memorable part of the vacation was seeing wild orangutans and proboscis monkeys (not to mention bearded pigs, monitor lizards, vipers and tarantulas). (more)Rosalind Arwas
The punctuality and friendliness of all the operators was extraordinary. There was not a bad word to say about any of them. (more)Roderick Stevens
There were lots of highlights but we particularly enjoyed seeing the elephants swimming across the river and also releasing turtle hatchlings back into the sea. We also loved Abai jungle lodge. Beautiful scenery and wonderful staff. (more)Andrea Gauntlett
From
US $1,810
excluding flights
This was our first vacation with this operator and it definitely exceeded our expectations. In large part this was due to the excellent guide Basil Lung. His knowledge and expertise was second to none. (more)Juliet Hately
River cruises at Bilet lodge; watching the proboscis monkeys, long-tailed macaques, elephants, monitor lizards, crocodiles and many different birds was the most memorable part. (more)Janet Preston
From
£675

Swimming with wild dolphins in the clear blue sea was just amazing! The rib trips were well organised and friendly, and the sea-life co-operated! truly fantastic. The jeep trip to the volcanic springs was also really well worth doing. (more)Lois Pierce-Jones
We enjoyed watching the dolphins in their natural habitat. (more)Petra Udovic

Memorable parts?
The game drives are clearly the highlight. Don't expect to see huge herds of wildlife roaming open savannah like you do in Africa. Much of the terrain is hilly and heavily forested (particularly at Bandhavgarh) so sightings can be difficult and infrequent. However be patient, there is plenty of wildlife to see and the sightings you do get will generally be up close. You also get a lot of time in the parks, 6:30 to ~11.00 (with a pick nick breakfast) and 15:00 to ~18:30. All... (more)Peter Brown

(The vacation) certainly exceeded my expectations, but the fact that my wife and children all cried when we finally had to go home demonstrates that everyone thoroughly enjoyed it (more)Neil Morris
The safari was amazing. We had some fantastic game sightings, seeing 4 of the big 5 but lots more besides. (more)Louise Walsh
We had a great combination of time in Capetown, days at the safari game reserve in Kwazulu Natal, time at the Indian Ocean, and then relaxation in Durban before heading home. The whole experience was truly a memorable one. (more)Monica Belan
From
£655
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
The whale watching trips
Tips?
Take warm waterproof clothing for the boat. Use sunscreen even on cloudy days.
Local benefits?
Yes.
Overall rating?
Amazing. (more)Lisa Mcdermott
From
US $1,169
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Interacting with the guides and the locals - actually driving the country and really seeing/experiencing the essence of Botswana
Tips?
Be open-minded and engage - we thoroughly enjoyed our travel companions and each of the guides!
Local benefits?
Yes - we tried as much as possible to contribute financially via tourism and only leave our footprints behind
Overall rating?

The best part of our vacation was the time we spent in Sarawak, Borneo. Kuching is a peaceful and beautiful city situated on a river. (more)Nicole Jordan
Arriving at Bako National Park (via an exhilarating boat ride), wading on to the un-spoilt beach and then seeing hibiscus monkey's swinging through the
trees. (more)Danielle Fieller

Most awe-inspiring the gorilla trek, what a huge privilege. So many other highlights on this vacation it is hard to process... (more)Shirley Bowyer
There is no way in 17 days you can cover what we did - and so well - without such a good driver/guide and really I'd say use this operator. (more)Ashley Irons
The vacation was fantastic - the company looked after us extremely well... Driver was very entertaining company and gave us a good tour and insight, and
the tour length / itinerary. etc was absolutely perfect. Could not recommend it or Uganda itself more. (more)Barney Lyons
From
US $3,250
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Hearing Indri lemurs call out to each other in the forest, and then seeing them above our heads!
Tips?
Be relaxed - sometimes you will see things, sometimes not - the national parks are not zoos. Be prepared - sometime there will be no electricty, usually there willbe no wifi, no clothes washing facilities unless you do it yourself in the shower....Madagascar is a very poor developing country, you can't expect things like at home, but keepan open mind and enjoy the...

From
US $2,125
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Snorkeling with sea lions.
Tips?
Protect yourself from the sun (which we did) and take precautions to avoid seasickness (which we did the second boat trip).
Local benefits?
Overall, yes very much. However the food could have avoided any human added animals (chicken/beef).
Overall rating?
Excellent! Very unique experience! (more)Rob Richards
From
US $844
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Machu Picchu was absolutely incredible. It lived up to our expectations and exceeded them in every way.
Tips?
Check the weather before you go. Different regions have very different temperatures and dressy clothes are not needed anywhere - even at very nice restaurants it seems. Order your soles before you go and have enough on hand for tips, purchases, meals, etc. We'd recommend $500 USD.
Local benefits?
We feel our vacation benefited local people in the... (more)Dee bertino
