Our customers say...

"I was by far the oldest traveller, and, when unavoidable ill-health hit me half-way through the tour, I was rendered even more of a handicap to the younger ones. Without our guide’s help and encouragement, I myself would have given up on the tour, as being too much of a drag on others. It would have been an overwhelming disappointment for me – but with his helpful advice I found it possible to see it out without disturbing the very good relations he had already established amongst us all. - And I managed to find it all I had hoped..."
