Experience Travel Group Traveller Reviews

We flew from the UK to Singapore and were met at Changi airport and taken to our first of 6 completely different but all marvellous hotels. We then flew to Bangkok and began a 10 day whistle stop tour (our choice) of a number of fascinating aspects of Thailand, including the less populated areas of Bangkok, various different types of markets; Hellfire Pass and accompanying sights; the Khao Sok National Park (including by pure luck, wild elephants), and finishing up on the beach in Khao Lok. And don't forget the wonderful food!! The holiday had absolutely we wanted.

This is the 3rd time we have used Experience Travel Group (ETG) - they previously took us to Vietnam and Cambodia, and when we decided we wanted to go to Singapore and Thailand, we had no hesitation in asking ETG to take us. We like the ability to be able to tailor a basic "package tour" to meet our own personal requirements. Also, without exception, the guides and drivers that ETG use have always been excellent.

We had a fabulous holiday with a rich cultural, culinary and social experience of Bangkok and the opportunity to see and enjoy the beauty of Thailand's islands - staying on Koh Samui and taking a trip into the Ang Thong National Park.

ETG's Sarah spent a lot of time understanding our family's hopes for a long-thought-about holiday to meet our middle son on his GAP year. It was the perfect blend of culture and action in Bangkok with a fabulous boat trip out to the Ang Thong National Park when we were on Koh Samui.

I went to Hampi and Goa - a last minute holiday and Experience Travel fulfilled everything I could ask for within a matter of days. They could not have been more helpful.

Experience Travel - fabulous company

Sri Lanka was a delight. We loved having rice and curry three times a day, the people couldn't have been more welcoming and the country is a feast for the eyes wherever you turn. It was terrific to see tourism getting back on its feet after the many setbacks Sri Lanka has suffered, and we were glad to do our small bit by visiting and spending there. The unique experiences ETG provided really brought the country to life – the Land Rover tour of Colombo, time at The Mudhouse, the exclusive village experience, our safari and staying at Tree Tops, and so on.

We had a superb time with ETG in Sri Lanka. From the planning through to booking, the lead-up, arrival, all the ground arrangements, the activities, experiences and highlights, we really didn't have to think about a thing thanks to ETG's expertise and the care taken to personalise our itinerary. It was the longest and best holiday we've ever taken.

We spent two weeks travelling through India.

Outstanding - from start to finish. Every detail was addressed, and Lola (our contact) was always available even during the trip in order to assist with queries. The service, the product, and the delivery was flawless.

Fabulous from start to finish

First class tried there best all the way through the Holliday

We had a bespoke tour to Jim Corbett park and then up to Nainital and Binsar. The travel arrangements were excellent,and having the same driver throughout made it so much easier.

Lola at ETG came up with a great itinerary for us, and tweaked it when we needed to slightly alter the dates. The accommodation and travel arrangements were excellent and the driver and tour staff in India were brilliant.

We headed to the andanan islands for 4/5 nights to relax and enjoy some snorkelling in the beautifully clear waters. We then experienced culture, incredible architecture, travel chaos, friendly village families travelling from Delhi, via Agra to Jaipur. Known as the pink city, we visited a Hindu temple, the palace, observatory and forts. A very early morning bike tour was well worth it. We were really lucky to be in Delhi for holly holly, so the atmosphere was buzzing. The Taj Mahal in Agra was one of the most beautiful buildings that we have ever seen. Far more beautiful than any photograph!

We visited NE India, Himalayan foothills, Bhutan, and Oman Mountains and beach. Took in Indian train journeys, desert walks, mountain trekking and visits to key sites eg Tigers Nest

Very good and kept in contact throughout the trip

Decided we wanted to do more than just go to Bali so asked for something different and some travelling around, and what an adventure it turned out to be . Went to Java and traveled around there. Highlight climbing the Ijen volcano in East Java a fantastic experience with our very experienced guide Teguh . Before that we had the very friendly Yan another great guide who showed us around West Java. Did some bike riding which was great fun. We traveled over to Bali and visited a few different places. Then off to Sumba a magical and intriguing island you’d have to visit to know what I mean! The review I gave the hotel we stayed in which was beautiful and called Cap Karosso was titled “ A hard place to get to but a difficult place to leave “ The whole trip was a great mixture of adventure , culture and lovely hotels , the Indonesian people were great, couldn’t do enough for you This was all overseen by the brilliant Nova who was our contact in Indonesia. He was always available for us if needed and did a great job

Ella made a wonderful itinerary for us, she had listened to what we wanted from the trip and that’s exactly what we got . We were off the beaten track a lot of the time and were glad we were not always in the usual tourist spots! Each hotel was excellent and some very interesting too
