What we enjoyed was walking on remote sections of the wall that is not crowded with tourists.

Excellent guide
The trip was extremely well organised by Alessandro whose extensive range of local contacts made all the difference. He was a very knowledgeable and comparable guide and we cant' speak too highly of him.
We met very interesting people and all got on well together. The walking, although difficult, was beautiful. Our guide Veronica was excellent and made our trip.
We cannot praise Veronica enough for her professionalism and attention to detail regarding her clients' comfort and needs, she also made us amazing lunches.
A really well thought out itinerary - good choice of monasteries and a stunning
drive back to Lhasa on the final day.

Hospitable staff at the Tea Trails Bungalows
I loved the Tea Trails Bungalows. These genuine colonial bungalows offer something completely different to staying in a hotel. I was very well looked after by what felt like my own staff, and nothing was too much trouble. I could happily have stayed here the rest of my life.
Japan is a fascinating country, and it was particularly nice to be able to explore on foot, walking through beautiful unspoiled rural areas. I very much enjoyed immersing myself in Japanese culture, sleeping on futons and bathing in outdoor hot spring baths.

I very much enjoyed immersing myself in Japanese culture, sleeping on futons and bathing in outdoor hot spring baths. Experiencing train travel was another bonus, especially negotiating the Tokyo underground at rush hour, thankfully led by our wonderful Japanese guide.
What we liked was that you use local people with their specialised knowledge and love
of their country so we experience a more in-depth view of a place and its people. It was such a relaxing holiday because from the very beginning we had complete confidence in both our driver and tour guide. It was refreshing that they both ate and shared meals with us and we were able to treat and call each other friends. It was an excellent trip!!
A good adventure trip. Good small group size and great customer service.

Whole experience was truly lovely
This trip has many highlights but it's the little things that stay in my memory. I really loved the homestay at the little village of Sintaung, the family were so welcoming, the food was delicious and the whole experience was truly lovely.
From the moment we departed Calgary and joined the Trans Canada Highway, I knew that I was in for an extraordinary scenic treat. Beautiful emerald lakes, towering mountain peaks and the excitement of being on the lookout for roaming wildlife, all added to an unforgettable adventure. I didn’t want to leave.

A wonderful experience!
The trip was brilliant, I loved it all. The Sacred Valley was an unexpected delight, the trek was just heaven, especially the Emerald Lake and Salkantay Pass. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity for such a wonderful experience - thank you for making it possible in such comfort!
