Wonderful Cambodia tour
Took a private tour (car, guide and driver) flying into Siem Reap, and out from Phnom Penh. Temples of Angkor archeological park, highlights of Battamban and Phnom Penh, also a few days relaxation by the beach. Well organised, itinerary tailored to our abilities and interests, small mid-range hotels which all exceeded our expectations. Overall just a brilliant eleven days.

Finding the real India
A time of variety and marked contrasts, enabling us to glimpse the culture, lifestyle and wildlife of this rapidly changing country. The local foods and customs were much enjoyed and being able to meeti with people in their homes provided insight into a different way of living.

Rating for tour operator:They listened to our preferences and requirements and delivered the perfect holiday, including all the variety and interesting elements we had requested. What's more, transport and communications worked like clockwork and we didn't waste a minute of precious time. This was the holiday of a lifetime and we could not fault the service provided by Experience Travel Group.
Dear Ruth
Thanks very much for this lovely review. We're delighted you had such a great time in India and got to experience local customs and food and other experiences.
Look forward to hearing from you again in the future.

An absolute gem of a holiday
My sister and I had the loveliest time exploring Sri Lanka. Our guide Saman Kaluarachchi was excellent, so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I loved the birds and creatures and he was always on the ball to show me new sightings. The canal cycle ride was the best ever fun but climbing Sigiriya the absolute highlight. All our hotels were special, serice always excellent, food SO good.....and what surprised me most was how safe I felt when wandering ...

So pleased to hear you had a fabulous holiday! We think the impromptu stops along the way and the small personal hotels are so important! We hope to hear from you again for a trip to another of the countries in which we specialise.
