Steve Taylor Southern Africa Safari: Kruger & Coast

This trip was a great introduction and overview of the Baltic countries and Helsinki. The forest walks were mixed with city walks leaving us with no boring moments and which made it different from the regular hiking trips. We had walks on the beach as well as in the forests while surprised by the wild berries and different types of mushrooms that our leader Andrius educated us on. His excitement about it was contagious. We climbed lighthouses, walked in bogs and rode fun ferries. The contrast between the Cold War museum and the Helsinki library was astonishing in regards of how things had changed. The old cities of Vilnius, Riga and Tallin were the highlights as well as the discovery of the history of these countries and how resilient they had been. Our leader Andrius was also a highlight and a lesson in how to be professional and yet still be funny and entertaining. Our amazing driver kept the comfortable van immaculate. His safe driving was greatly appreciated. The hotels had a great location and overall served the purpose. Helsinki hotel was the best but Panorama hotel in Vilnius was not. It can be upgraded to a more comfortable one. There was no AC and the room was quite small and with only one plug available.
Overall a great trip and I am ready to do it again in the future.

We have been to Vietnam before but this time felt we saw so much more by doing it in a group with a guide . This was a really good mix of cycling and sightseeing . We went to places we would never have found on our own . It was incredibly hot cycling but there are plenty of drinks stops and you start early every day to minimize the heat . There are some long transfers but the bus is good and worth it to see more of the county . The organisation is very slick compared to other exodus trips we have done . The hotel in Saigon is in a good location I recommend arriving a day early so you can see more of the city and stay a day at the end so you see more of Hanoi . We eat out at some great local restaurants and the food was so good and cheap – all organized by our guide . Hotels were all good as well .
