Truly unforgettable family holiday

We spent two fabulous weeks in Kerela getting to know a little about India and it’s culture and religions. A holiday enjoyed by the whole family from age 6to 85.

Better than we could ever have hoped for

Am individual guided holiday was new to us but we appreciated that local knowledge would be important for us to get the most out of the country. It was by far the best holiday we have ever had. Our guide brought the country alive with his passion, knowledge and sheer joy and without him the experience would not have been so good

First time to India

On advice from tour operator we elected as our first trip to India to go to the Golden Triangle - starting at Jaipur then Agra and finishing in Delhi. It was “full on” for most of the 11 days but fortunately we had built in some down time which was certainly needed. Overall the trip was excellent and gave us an insight into this amazing country with the highlight of standing in front of Taj Mahal at sunrise

Amazing trip to Vietnam

We travelled from Hanoi in North Vietnam, down to Ho Chi Minh city in the South, with stops at Halong Bay and Hoi An along the way. It was one of the best holidays we have ever taken, and we had some great guides whose knowledge of their country is unsurpassed. The hotels chosen for us were all perfect, especially the fabulous Nam Hai in Hoi An. We had numerous tours and trips arranged as part of our itinerary, which showed us so much more ...

Rating for tour operator:

This is the second holiday we have taken with Experience Travel. They do an amazing job of arranging exactly what you are looking for, and it all goes seamlessly. They spend time listening to exactly the sort of trip you are hoping to take and put together as many itineraries as you need until they get it right. We would have no hesitation in travelling with them again.

Honeymoon in Sri Lanka & The Maldives

We worked with Lola who gave us extreme piece of mind during uncertain times, and was very thoughtful in her proposal of what our honeymoon ...

My husband and wanted our honeymoon to be full of culture, experiences, and relaxation. ETG exceed our expectations to say the least! We traveled to Sri Lanka for 10 days and The Maldives for 5 days. We had never been to Sri Lanka or The Maldives and were completely blown away during the our entire trip. We worked with Lola who gave us extreme piece of mind during uncertain times, and was very thoughtful in her proposal of what our honeymoon could be. She set an itinerary that combined lush jungle and tropical paradise settings with off-grid adventures thrown in. This was EXACTLY what we wanted!

Rating for tour operator:

Our operator in Sri Lanka, Sudharshan, was absolutely fantastic! He was an excellent tour guide and taught us so much about Sri Lanka's culture. He even took us to some of his favorite places to eat, which were delicious! We grew a connection with Sudharshan throughout our 10 days in Sri Lanka, and loved how welcoming and friendly he was. We were at complete ease the entire trip and felt very taken care of in Sudharshan's hands.

Hey guys,
How lovely to hear! Thank you very much for entrusting us with your honeymoon and we're so glad that it was all that it was all you expected and more. We love Sudarshan - he's an absolute legend and we're so proud to have him as one of the team. We'll be sure to pass on your comments to him and Lola!
Best,
