Reviews

Varied Cycling through four countries.

Nice opportunity to spent a couple of weeks cycling through varied terrain and four countries. Most of the time is spent in Montenegro, which is a very mountainous country.

Most Inspirational Moment

The day riding into Kotor was a highlight of the trip.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leader was full on in looking after us, but could use some more historical knowledge.

Advice for Potential Travellers

We had a variety of weather on the trip from some rain and cool to some hot weather, so be prepared for a variety of weather. We travelled May 25 to June 7. By mid June it was quite hot, 30C plus.

Wonderful week in stunning Transylvania

Memorable cycling trip in mainly rural Transylvania: great crew, lovely and varied accommodation – an amazing experience.

Most Inspirational Moment

No one moment, just enjoyed the beautiful landscapes, learning about the history and culture, fab company and good wine.

Thoughts on Group Leader

We couldn’t have asked for better than Cristina, with Vlad in support. We had such fun, a great insight to Romanian life and we were so well looked after.

Advice for Potential Travellers

You’ll love it! We had very hot weather, but I know it can be variable in that region so be prepared for anything. Most meals are covered so you don’t need huge amounts of cash.

Amazing Country Disappointing Guiding

A trip through some amazing and varied landscapes staying in lovely local guest houses and nice hotels. Somewhat ruined by poor guiding.

Most Inspirational Moment

Cycling through incredible, breathtaking landscapes on quiet roads.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Terrible. He was not really present. He was distracted and unhelpful and often rude.

Never again

Constant dire room issues ruined it. Wrong emphasis on trip content, notes inaccurate, bad hotel and restaurant choices. Leader elusive, finally his response: “you’re on the wrong holiday”. Lived in 8, school 4, business 7 + holidays = 44 countries visited but Albania broke me.

Most Inspirational Moment

Berat's mosque. Imam polite, informative, ceiling of the annexe was out of this world, exquisite.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Offhand, I blew a fuse having to constantly fight my own room battles, he told me to "calm down". It Just got worse. I wasn't last to book but was treated as an inconvenience, after-thought. At one point genuinely thought I would be sleeping on the bus or at a different hotel as debate raged for 1/2 hour, last to get key every time.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Choose a different country, strongly suggest review choice of tour operator.

A excellent fun filled week.The group interacted well and bonded

The whole experience was great.Excellent fellow travellers and travelling by train to the start point on most days was really enjoyable.The hotel is basic but the food was good.Stopping at a bar at the end of most days was also great.Our guide ,Roberta ,was fun and very knowledgeable

Most Inspirational Moment

Walking part of the GR20

Thoughts on Group Leader

Roberta was amazing and great sense of humour and very caring for all members of the group

Advice for Potential Travellers

The hotel is basic but functional.Take a travel kettle if you want a cup of coffee when you first wake up.Also the hotel does not have hair dryers .Also take some snacks for walking as the local village has limited supplies

Sicilian food adventure

An amazing trip exploring so much of Sicilian history and typical foods the Island. Our tour leader Tiziano went above and beyond his role to show us as possibile throughout the trip. We saw so much in 1 week.

Most Inspirational Moment

So much included to choose 1 moment.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Tiziano was amazing. He was friendly, helpful, approachable and super conscientious. He did as much as could and more to ensure our trip was a superb adventure.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Be prepared for some long hot days on an amazing island with so much to offer.

Some of the greatest desert scenery in the world

This Bolivia tour includes a fantastic variety of landscapes and experiences but for all of us on the tour the highlight was the desert scenery in particular the salt flats. Go before too many other tourists discover it! There is a lot of travelling and some long days but it is worth it. Julia our guide was quite simply one of the best tour guides I’ve had in around 40 group tours. Bolivia is a poor country but the people are friendly and we had no problems with strikes or roadblocks. Don’t be put off by the trip note warnings about altitude sickness, perhaps we were lucky but in our group no-one had anything worse than a short-lasting slight headache.

Most Inspirational Moment

The desert scenery in general and the salt flats in particular, there is quite simply nothing like them. But La Paz was also a very interesting setting and learning about the hard life of the miners of Potosi from the very entertaining ex-miner was an enjoyable if sobering experience.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Julia was excellent. She was great at organising us, always told us what to expect and had great knowledge of all the places and sights we visited and the history behind them.

Advice for Potential Travellers

In the highlands it is cold in June to August so take plenty of warm clothes in layers as it warms up during the day. Some of the hotels we stayed in didn't have great heating so bear that in mind as well. Be prepared for the long days but it is definitely worth it! A few people in my group left the tour in La Paz so they could have more time there, an option which in hindsight I wished I'd considered as the tour doesn't spend much time there.

Amazing Holiday

Fantastic trip, saw such a range of wildlife. Really great to go to so many different locations on this trip. Great guide, comfortable and spacious vehicle and some very nice lodges and hotels. Would highly reccomend this trip.

Most Inspirational Moment

So many to choose from. One highlight was seeing rare mountain zebra at the waterhole outside our room at Weltevrede Guest Farm. Another was seeing multiple humpback whales during the optional scenic flight. Overall though just the vast amount of animals we saw throughout the entire trip.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Shane Katjirua was fantastic. He was very organised, patient, helpful and funny. He was a mine of imformation. His driving was exceptional and he was able to spot wildlife whilst on game drives that we missed. He really made the holiday.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Do take advantage of the optional trips. Especially the optional game drive in Etosha National Park. We also did the Sossusvlei Scenic Flight by Eagle Eye Aviation, depending on group size the plane can be very small and hot, but it was definitely worth doing. Also highly reccomend the Ocean Adventures seal and dolphin trip from Swakopmund.

Cycling in Albania week of 15th June

^ day cycling trip through Southern Albania.

Most Inspirational Moment

Visiting the town of Gijorkaster. We didn't take the guided tour but wandered on our own.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leader could have done a lot more. He was not always at the head of our cycling group and at one point I came out of a restaurant to find that the whole group had already left including the van. Also there was no maintenance of the bikes no checking of tyres quite unacceptable. The payment for dinners and drinks was very poorly organised. It should have been done after each meal which it was not. Given the temperatures we should have been leaving much earlier each morning he should have made this happen.

Advice for Potential Travellers

I would certainly have some local currency in my pocket to pay for meals etc. Also check which hotels you are staying at as they seem to love loud Ibiza style music not what you want when you've just ridden 60km in 35 C

Excellent trip

A fascinating and varied tour through 3 interesting Baltic countries.

Most Inspirational Moment

Visit to Curonian spit

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent. He was knowledgeable, approachable and created a strong group bond and identity.

Advice for Potential Travellers

If you are interested in culture, history and architecture, you will enjoy this trip.
