Nature of Guyana tour
Things do not always go to plan in Guyana, and some of the iconic wildlife can remain elusive, but the local representatives are superb and the guides are excellent. So we may not have seen jaguar or tapir, but we did watch giant river otters hunting red bellied piranha among Amazon lilies, a lek of brilliant orange Cock of the Rock, and a giant anteater at close quarters, plus the spectacular Kaiteur waterfall.

This was my first time using Undiscovered Destinations and I would certainly consider using them again.

One word: INCREDIBLE
A private and tailor-made 2-week tour exploring Ivory Coast, and its many tribes, intriguing masked dances, arts and crafts. Ivory Coast remains very much off the beaten path, with super-friendly and welcoming people, a photographer's delight, and a dream for someone interested in ethnography. A visit to Ivory Coast is like stepping into another world.

Undiscovered Destinations, their agent in West Africa and the local guide went to extreme lengths to create a trip that I could fully enjoy despite my mobility issues. We were made to feel like VIPs all the way through, as if we were visiting royalty. From the very first query, the booking process, and throughout the trip, nothing was too much trouble, and adjustments were made to allow for my disabilities. I can't recommend UD enough, and am looking forward to my next trip(s) with them.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We truly appreciate your kind words and are delighted that you had such a fantastic experience in Ivory Coast. It’s always our goal to create seamless and memorable journeys, and we’re so pleased we could tailor this trip to your needs. Your support and loyalty are invaluable, and we look forward to welcoming you on your next adventure!

OUIDAH VOODOO FESTIVAL: BENIN, TOGO, GHANA
What an exceptional and extraordinary tour this was. I had long wanted to explore the Ouidah Voodoo Festival Benin, Togo, and Ghana, and even planned to do so in 2020. Well, I think we all know what happened in 2020. Having finally taken this tour, I can only say it was worth the wait. Everything was handled perfectly from the transportation, the guide (outstanding gentleman named Valentine), and specific events and sights selected. In ...
What an exceptional and extraordinary tour this was. I had long wanted to explore the Ouidah Voodoo Festival Benin, Togo, and Ghana, and even planned to do so in 2020. Well, I think we all know what happened in 2020. Having finally taken this tour, I can only say it was worth the wait. Everything was handled perfectly from the transportation, the guide (outstanding gentleman named Valentine), and specific events and sights selected. In fact, I wish we could have spent more than just one day at the Ouidah Voodoo Festival it was so fascinating. I learned a great deal about Afr5ica, the religion, culture, and people while on this tour and enthusiastically recommended it.

Undiscovered Destinations offered an outstanding tour of Benin, Togo, Ghana and the Ouidah Voodoo Festival through Ashanti Tours and it was truly exceptional. They did a terrific job -- accommodations were amazing, the pacing, and organization of the tour was excellent, and the guide, Valentine, was super knowledgeable. I would definitely travel with Undiscovered Destinations and Ashanti Tours again.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. After the disappointment of being unable to travel in 2020 we are delighted that you have now had the opportunity to witness the remarkable Ouidah Voodoo Festival. We are especially pleased to read your positive comments about our local partner who we know work hard on our behalf to make every trip a success.
Best regards,
From Team UD and our colleagues in West Africa

Exploring the centre of Colombia
This was an imaginative itinerary that began and ended in Bogota and which visited some of the highlights in the centre of the country. The stand-out was San Agustin , with its incredibke archaeology. There were also some beautiful old towns, notably Villa de Leyva, Popayan and Honda. We also learned about coffee and cacao production. What struck me about central Colombia was just how beautiful it was.

I have travelled with Undiscovered Destinations quite a number of times. Their great strength lies in their imaginative and well-planned itineraries. They live up to their name.
Thank you for your excellent feedback. We are delighted that you enjoyed your travels in Colombia. And thank you for your kind comments about our itineraries.





Another great experience
This was our first tailor-made trip with Undiscovered Destinations. It was to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary and we wanted to do a couple of different things and change some hotels from the existing itinerary offered. All of our requests were accommodated and we had a fantastic time - the guides, accommodation and transportation were all up to the standard we'd expect.

Undiscovered Destinations provide a personal but professional service. They handled difficulties arising from a cancelled flight very well
Thank you for your feedback and for your positive comments about our local partner. I am pleased that my colleague Jason was on hand locally escorting the tour and was able to assist booking new travel arrangements following the cancellation of your flight back to Johannesburg.
