Exploring Cambodia - ancient and modern
We believe we received a full experience of Cambodia, from the spectacle of the ancient history and temples, through the horrors of the Kymer Rouge, to the current wonderful people, their culture and their delicious food!

This is the second time that we have used Experience Travel Group (ETG) and the second fabulous holiday we have had with them. Initially, ETG allowed us to bespoke our holiday to incorporate one or two specific requirements, and then the arrangements were all meticulously made and the whole experience ran like clockwork. On our flight home, my wife and I were already discussing where we would like to go with ETG next!
Dear Graham,
That's so great - we are trying to encourage travellers to look at Cambodia as a destination in its own right - it's such a great place as you say. Also, so good of you to say such kind things about us - very much looking forward to helping you with your next ETG holiday!

Amazing and memorable experience of exciting places, genuine cultures and wonderful people.
We are well travelled and I can honestly say this holiday was one of the best trips we have had. My initial impression of our Tour Operator David was extremely favourable in view of his friendliness, knowledge, experience and listening skills. He didn’t fail to impress and created an itinerary which was perfect for us and his enthusiasm added to our excitement.

He didn’t fail to impress and created an itinerary which was perfect for us and his enthusiasm added to our excitement. We had excellent channels of communication either by telephone or e-mail which made planning our ETG holiday a worry free, pleasurable experience. Our guides were friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable ensuring we had a “happy time” and experienced genuine cultures. We met lots of lovely people, joined in activities, including milking and washing a buffalo and enjoying a game of pétanque. We enjoyed lots of different food and Laos beer is highly recommended. All of the Hotels provided excellent service and I would stay in them again. We were especially spoilt at Zazen Boutique Resort a beautifully located hotel in Koh Samui. We took lots of photos and have many happy memories of a wonderful holiday. Thank you so much.

Hi Angela
I'm thrilled that you both had such a wonderful holiday with great experiences and I look forward to seeing some of the photos. I agree that Beer Lao is one of the best beers in the region! I'd be delighted to discuss ideas for another holiday when you are ready.
Best wishes
David





A Real Holiday Experience!
Not only were we looked after in terms of planning & booking etc but the quality of hotels and importantly the experiences that had been arranged were 10 out of 10

Nick Clark of Experience Travel Group was the best travel agent we have come across in the many years that we have been travelling. Due to the troubles in Sri Lanka we had to abort our planned trip at the last minute so Nick planned and booked our new holiday to India within 2 days (over a weekend). The holiday more than exceeded expectations
Dear Jonathan,
We're so pleased you had such a great trip and thank you so much for your kind words. We should thank you both for your patience too - it's fairly unusual to be told that you will be changing your destination when you arrive at your stopover point! (For the benefit of other readers Jonathan and Fiona were on route to Sri Lanka when the FCO changed their advice to against 'all but essential travel', so they waited in a day or two in Dubai while we put together a trip in Kerala for them).
As we always say: it's not so much the destination but the journey that counts!
We very much hope you get the chance to visit Sri Lanka again in the future!
Kind regards,
Sam

Perfect mix of adventure and relaxation.
Our trip was to Sri Lanka and The Maldives. It was exceptionally well planned with lots of variety, new experiences, great food and entertaining interactions.

India and its Wildlife with new conservation policies
We arrived in Bangalore ( silicon city of India), then on to Mysore where we saw the palace illuminated at night; then on safari trips to Nagarhole and Bandipur seeing the conservation progress for helping the natural breeding of animals such as tigers, elephants and other wildlife. We were very impressed with their policies to stop plastic and allow nature to weave its magic wand for recovery and conservation of the land and inhabitants. We ...

We were very impressed with their policies to stop plastic and allow nature to weave its magic wand for recovery and conservation of the land and inhabitants. We then visited the coffee and tea plantations and arrived in `Cochin and Ernakulam to explore the old and new city.

Experience Travel Group are extremely professional and very considerate for each individual's preferences when travelling to new places. I would recommend them for their ability to put together names people for every part of the journey who were so helpful, informative and considered our safety.
Dear Geraldine
Thanks for this lovely review. We're delighted you got to see such a variety of wildlife in your time at Nagarhole and Bandipur...it must have been a great experience.
Great you had another fantastic trip with ETG and look forward to hearing from you in the future.

Experience Travel Group were excellent from initially booking enquiry, to arrival, departure and returning home. The holiday was seamless and as planned without any glitches. It worked like clockwork and the only negative side being it went too quickly

A truly memorable Sri Lankan family experience
As a family of four (children aged 9 & 11) we travelled to Sri Lanka for the first time with little expectation but wow what a truly superb country to visit as a family. The Sri Lankan people are so kind & couldn't do enough for us. The whole experience from booking, flying, arriving at the airport, our driver, accomodation, excursions and even the journey home was magical and Experience Travel Group couldn't have done a better job in putting ...
