Romania - full of surprises
Where to start? An amazing holiday to an amazing country. We did not know what to expect but found a country with a fascinating history, amazing landscapes and welcoming and friendly people. Our guide was superb with a wealth of knowledge and facts. The hotels and homestays exceed all our expectations. A great mix of the highlights and off the beaten track sights made this a holiday that we shall never forget.

Rating for tour operator:Superb knowledge, excellent and helpful staff. Could not have asked for more.
Thank you. Romania really is a surprise and nothing like most peoples preconceived ideas - it is warm, friendly and welcoming.
Thank you
Fascinating and enjoyable
16 day tour of Madagascar. Absolutely excellent guide and all drivers. Possibly slightly over ambitious in sheer distance and time spent travelling in attempt to cram in as much as possible. Very good accommodation, well organised.

Rating for tour operator:Extremely helpful and capable, especially as I decided half way through to go to madagascar instead of ethiopia, they reorganised me cheerfully.
Sudan
Amazing destination, exceeded all expectations. If you love archaeology this is a must-visit.

Thank you!
Heart of the Silk Road, through Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan...
A return visit to Uzbekistan but interesting to compare with two other Stan states. Worked well with three sets of guides and drivers but distances travelled by road (poor conditions in Uzbekistan) too long and tiring as were frequent border crossings, on foot. Otherwise an excellent trip, well worth some discomfort. Scenically, historically and culturally a fascinating area, still to emerge from the Russian sphere of influence which has been ...

Worked well with three sets of guides and drivers but distances travelled by road (poor conditions in Uzbekistan) too long and tiring as were frequent border crossings, on foot. Otherwise an excellent trip, well worth some discomfort. Scenically, historically and culturally a fascinating area, still to emerge from the Russian sphere of influence which has been largely beneficial. A great destination, largely unspoilt with good hotels and very friendly people.
Rating for tour operator:A very helpful and efficient company.

Haiti - undiscovered jewel of the Caribbean
This was a 10 day trip to Haiti, visiting Port-au-Prince, Jacmel, Cap Haitien with thefantastic Citadelle. Haiti is great destination for the experienced traveller. The country has obviously suffered greatly throughout its history and is very poor and the infrastructure basic. But the people are friendly (speaking French helps) and there was no feeling of danger, although being sensible is always recommended. There are hardly any tourists ...
This was a 10 day trip to Haiti, visiting Port-au-Prince, Jacmel, Cap Haitien with thefantastic Citadelle. Haiti is great destination for the experienced traveller. The country has obviously suffered greatly throughout its history and is very poor and the infrastructure basic. But the people are friendly (speaking French helps) and there was no feeling of danger, although being sensible is always recommended. There are hardly any tourists there, the countryside is beautiful and there would be great hikes in the mountains. There are also nice beaches (although not near town centres!) around and also some interesting historical sites, particularly the Citadelle. The food was good, although it is quite expensive.
Rating for tour operator:Undiscovered Destinations organise the bookinga and administration. Everything was handled very professionally, good work. Voyages Lumiere is the local operator in Haiti who run the tour, run by Jacqueline Labrom. The organisiation was generally good (apart from a few hiccups) and the guide also good. There hasn't been a culture of tourism in Haiti for a long time (Labadee excepted), and they a re still finding there feet. My feeling is that VL is probably the best around, they are experienced have the right contacts. Would recommend using them, either as an individual or as a ravel operator.
Superb holiday in Iran
We have nothing negative to say about our holiday experience in Iran. From the guide and driver to the hotels, food, sites and weather was excellent.

Rating for tour operator:Particularly impressed by their personal service
An interesting experience
The best part was driving up and down in the dunes and the night in the tent at the 1000 nights camp with a full moom. In a clear sky.
