Seeing the bears from the hide was memorable, especially Mum bear with her two babies (more)debbie hill
Just being in the wonderful location was memorable - seeing the snow covered mountains of Bucegi on one side and the Piatra Craiului on the other was wonderful. Apart from seeing the bears, the other (unexpected) highlight was the wonderful ride in the horse cart, through the meadows with the sun shining. (more)William Walker

The food, from local families at the homestays, from the street providers in the small towns we walked to/through, and from the restaurants/cafes in the larger towns like Kas and Patara. The food experience was matched, (and probably enhanced) by some spectacular walking, and an introduction to the Lycian civilization and their legacies. A vibrant and enthusiastic guide and a great group of like minded walkers also added to the overall experience.

The whole adventure was superb and suited our family aged 8 - 69 very well. Walking in the mountains with the entire family group was memorable and those who had not been to Nepal before promise to visit again and again.
Tips?
The trip was perfect and as we were a private group we were able to "tweak" the itinerary to suit us. For example adding in an extra day in Pokhara and then rafting part way down the Lower Seti added a lot to the adventure. The road to Chitwan... (more)Richard Miles

Even the tipping ceremony was wonderful, but the last day of the trek was probably the best. Beautiful surroundings and walking easily down hill with new friends knowing that Kilimanjaro had been achieved. (more)Marleen James

Walking the trail was very hard in places, but so well organised that it was a great sense of achievement to complete each day and the trail itself. When we got to the Sun Gate above Machu Picchu we arrived in a lot of low cloud which took the edge off it, however we walked on a bit further and got a great high level view of the lost city so we were more than happy with this.

Great. Class time just flew by and the study was actually fun. I was a novice hiker and found the hikes to be challenging, but worth the effort. I really value the friendships I made with others participating in the program. (more)Mark Hindin
Great. We loved it and rated our time in Panes the best part of our month in Spain and Portugal. We even looked at the price of houses in the region! (more)Diane Norman
It's difficult to choose a favourite (part) as all aspects were brilliant. The course was just right with the right amount of challenge, and Ana organised the transfers, accommodation and treks efficiently.

The entire trail and Machu Picchu itself were phenomenal, of course, but the visit with the Andean village was surprisingly touching and enlightening.
Tips?
There were certain items for camping that would have been helpful to have that weren't on the Incan Trail items list, e.g. Flipflops

We had a fantastic time staying in Samoens... The walking was amazing at this time of year: alpine meadows, wildflowers, waterfalls, and glacial landscapes, and not too challenging: we ranged between 500m and 970m ascent in a day. We went rafting on the Giffre on our day off, which was also great.

It is a lovely setting, just bird noise, nothing else. Great to see the almond trees still in blossom, and we overdosed on oranges and Raf tomatoes (if you see strange coloured green / blackish tomatoes just buy them!). John's walks are excellent and he even put together some on-road cycling routes on a Garmin for us, as I had told him my husband is a keen cyclist. (more)Julia Sherwen
