Don’t take our word for it. Have a look at what our guests have to say…

Absolutely the trip of my life. I don’t normally go on tours as I don’t want to be a “tourist” but I would not have gotten 1/4 of what I was able to experience on this vacation. This was easily the best tour I have ever been on but even more importantly, it was the best holiday vacation I have ever dreamed of. It sounds cliche but it did change my life. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! ~ Karen
