Sri Lanka and the Maldives
A wonderful experience in a beautiful country with lovely people. Our trip involved amongst others visiting Kandy, the hill country, game reserves and Galle before a few days in the Maldives.

Rating for tour operator:A well organised trip meeting our detailed requirements. The varied accommodation was of a generally high standard and met our expectations. The excellent chauffeur/guide in Sri Lanka was very caring and considerate. The resort in the Maldives was as expected.
Hi Ian, thank you for your lovely feedback and it's brilliant to hear you had such a good time in Sri Lanka. We will certainly pass on your praise to your guide and he will be delighted to hear it. Best wishes, Toni
A fantastically well organised and run Family trip to Vietnam giving us such great fun and so many memorable experiences.
There is so much we can say. We enjoyed every minute. It was such a whirlwind trip taking in so many sights, tastes and exciting every sense. Expectations were well exceeded in every way. Above all the planned details and itinerary were accurate and realistically described. In Vietnam the people are so nice and welcoming , making us feel safe with our 16 year old Daughter.

Rating for tour operator:We thoroughly recommend this trip for Families who might be concerned about safety, food hygiene or anything else. Holly Newing at Experience Travel group and their Vietnam based staff, drivers and guides made this trip so good.
Clive, I'm so pleased you had such a wonderful experience! Some of the moments you mentioned, such as the 'shotgun wedding invite(!)' and being welcomed into local homes, sound like special memories indeed. I'm also pleased you always felt safe travelling with Alice too.
Thanks so much for your kind feedback Clive - hopefully we can help to send you on another family holiday in the future!

Hi Paul and Brenda,
Thanks for your feedback, I am so pleased you enjoyed your adventure! Indonesia's islands are so diverse, so it is great you got to explore so many of them. The photos you sent through of the turtles, Komodo Dragons and the smoking volcano are amazing!

Borneo a real adventure and experience for making memories that will get everyone talking
Truly an adventure that made the tastebuds and senses come alive. Some very sensational moments with thunderstorms raging whilst in a little boat on a croc infested river! Some memorable moments as macaque monkeys wander across your villa terrace. Some amazing moments as an alpha orangutan stares at you and bares his teeth, whilst you stand only a few metres away in the real rainforest. Borneo live the adventure.

Rating for tour operator:From the beginning Experience travel listened, engaged and translated our wishes into an itinerary that was as close to perfect as possible.

Amazing holiday in Vietnam. Great itinerary that didn’t feel rigid, nice hotel
We visited Hoi An, Hanoi and Halong Bay Morning Glory cooking class in Hoi An was great. Really good mixture of relaxation and interesting activities. We are usually independent travellers but Experience Travel nade travelling around the country easy and the guides provided lots of interesting information that we wouldn’t have been able to find out ourselves

Rating for tour operator:Experience Travel was recommended to me by friends. They arranged a great itinerary which was complex as family members were leaving for different destinations orciuldconfirm if they could come or not until nearer the trip but this didn’t phase them. We were given ouritinery on different formats including an App Which was great. The trip ran smoothly with all the transfers in place at the right times and places. Would definitely recommend.

Hi Heather,
I am so pleased you had a great holiday! It was a pleasure to put this trip together with you.

Wow !!
Sri Lanka proved memorable for it's varied experiences from national parks/safari, cultural/historical sites, tea plantations and the coastline. The regional cultural differences in the villages, towns and cities as well as the excellent food together with friendly and hospitable locals made it a trip which we are sure will prove difficult to beat in the future.
