Discover Adventure : see comments above

Trekking along the Great Wall is a reasonably tough challenge but comes with its own rewards in terms of the sense of achievement at the end and the amazing scenery along the way. Terracotta Warriors well worth seeing. It may or may not be the 8th wonder of the world but it's a real wow experience.

Good enough at organising a trip for people who wish to undertake a challenge to raise money for charity but it's not the same for participants who are simply on holiday. Cutting costs so that the headline cost of the holiday is reduced is fine but I will avoid booking a holiday with the same operator in the future.

The itinerary and group size made what could be a really top trip, much more arduous, uncomfortable and, on summit day, dangerous than is necessary. As a result many people experienced unnecessary difficulties and illness. The local crew were extremely slick and professional and took care of the group and their needs very well. The Western leader also did a good job in keeping moral high and the group contained

The trip is on the limits of what is safe in terms of rate of ascent. Group size of 28 per leader is well over the international guidance. It seems clear that the operator is putting profit above quality and safety.

The trip was extremely well organised and the crew were excellent. The journey was well planned taking in all major sights along the way. Highly recommended

they did exactly what was required. Fast responses when needed and answered questions in full

This was an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime, adventure into the tropical rain and cloud forests of Costa Rica topped off by a day of exciting white water rafting! Much of the time was spent with local families who welcomed us into their homes, or camping - even the cowshed was an experience! Local guide, Randall, provided a wonderful insight into the wildlife of Costa Rica, and the local support team of Memo and Sonia managed to produce amazing lunches in the middle of nowhere!

The DA crew were fantastic, they engaged with the group with good humour whilst offering professional advice and support. Cannot recommend Alan, Duncan and Doc Lucy highly enough. The whole challenge was well organised and managed from the start of booking to final night.

The support given from Discover Adventure was great, and the team of leaders on the trek were faultless. They were knowledgeable, professional, friendly and approachable.

Surprising scenery from coloured patchwork fields of yellow sesame, white mustard, red chile's and yellow wild sunflowers to elaborately decorated temples. Maroon robed monks on motorbikes is a sight to behold.

A very well organised company with nothing being too much trouble. The staff are very friendly and take the trouble to make you feel well supported.

trekking and white water rafting across Costa Rica on a challenging but highly rewarding itinary

Good, excellent local crew

Although the flights didn't connect as there were technical issues, once there and I'm our way it's was an awesome experience that I will never forget! The holiday was well organised, the agents in Cuscoe were always on hand, they made sure we were in the right places at the right times. On the trail itself, the porters were ready to receive everyone at lunchtimes and when going into camps that they had gone ahead and set up. The food was excellent - - three course meal in he middle of nowhere is quite an achievement, that is all down to all the porters and staff that accompany the trek. Wow awesome

The information that is in the brochure is accurate in what to expect. They do stress a fitness required and not being fully prepared is not the best way to tackle such a trek. In this trek the altitude is a challenge and that is not an easy one to train for. All the information, where to meet the time was always handled efficiently. There is many varied treks across the world on offer and they are all graded so depending on your ability you can choose accordingl. That was my second trek with them, I'm looking to book my third!

A wonderful mix of cycling and cultural events. Great guides

Very well organised responsive to feedback Supports ethical sustainable tourism Coped well with a diverse large group
