Wonderful trip to Kerala
We had a guided trip to Kerala organised by ETG. We stayed in a variety of hotels; eco houses; adventure camp and a spice boat. The trip was amazing with excellent local guides throughout

Sarah at ETG did a great job of meeting our aspirations for the trip, taking account of our desire to see the "real" country and meet people and see the way of life. The itinerary was perfect for this. The local agents were excellent too and kept in touch throughout the trip and ensured that all the transfers, trips and guiding worked seamlessly.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! I’m so pleased to hear that the itinerary met your aspirations and gave you the opportunity to experience the real Kerala. It was a pleasure planning this trip for you, and I’d love to help with your next adventure whenever you're ready!





Experience organised the trip to our specifications, and succeeded in every respect!
Bird watching (our guide was a genuine expert), hiking (with a qualified and friendly hiking guide who took us off the beaten track), amazing hotels, and everything went like clockwork!

We had our own nominated lady at Experience who asked us in some detail about what we wanted to do, and what we did not want to do. The result was an amazing hotel that ticked all our boxes!
Thank you for your very kind feedback Rupert! Delighted that you had a wonderful first fling with Sri Lanka.
Hopefully it won't be too long until we help with your next adventure...!

Dear Amanda
Thank you for your review. We are pleased that despite the issues you mentioned, you had a fabulous trip. We are sorry we failed to deliver our usual level of experience.
As we have discussed, we have taken various lessons to ensure the issues never happen again, and we appreciate how you handled the situation. This ensured we could take those lessons and make efforts to make up for the errors.
Best wishes

Easy travelling
We enjoyed a more relaxed tour of Sri Lanka than most, staying at least three nights in any one place. It is the mountains and countryside that make Sri Lanka so special. The tropical coastline is lovely but can be matched in other countries.

Amazing Trip
We visited India for the first time and ETG created a programme that exactly fit the bill for what we wanted to see in a short space of time.

The most amazing honeymoon - which we could never have planned ourselves!
I have never booked a holiday through a company before, but am a complete convert - ETG planned everything to such a high quality and we had the most amazing time!

Spectacular scenery and hidden gems
With an 18 day, 9 location trip to Sri Lanka so much could have gone wrong but the holiday was brilliantly organised by ETG and our local driver/guide Indika lifted the experience to another level. Every day was an adventure - culture, history, wildlife, amazing scenery, activities and meeting the lovely Sri Lankan people. An unforgettable holiday.

Based on our discussions and enhanced by extensive in depth knowledge of Sri Lanka, Holly put together an amazing itinerary to provide an unforgettable holiday. Holly has been professional throughout the planning. Tip inclusive made life easier. The Vamoos app was a valuable addition.
Hi Jackie

Another superb holiday organised by ETG!
Our second trip with ETG to the wonderful island and people of Sri Lanka. This time we left the well trodden south and central and headed north to Jaffan, Trinco etc. Superb small accommodation units (villas, boutique hotels)

This was our second trip with the excellent driver/guide, Chandana, who also looked after our daughter and family previously. We appreciated the welcoming call from the local Manager and he was always contactable when needed.
Hi Jonathan
I'm delighted to hear you had another great trip. We look forward to organising more!
