Immersion in the beauty, culture and history of Oman

Wonderful variety of experiences from the coast to the mountains to the dessert. Fortes, castles and souks along the way enhance the cultural experience

Such a different world, full of great and interesting experiences and delightfully friendly & happy people

Our first visit to Thailand, Laos and Cambodia. As stated above such a different and wonderful experience in all countries we visited. Very sorry when it came to an end: there is so much to see and experience

Family Cambodia with South Coast by Dave P, 30 Nov 2023

Amazing family holiday in Cambodia

Two fabulous weeks. We visited the temples around Ankhor Wat, Phnom Penh, and some amazing places in the Cambodian countryside including glamping on a tent floating on a river, before finishing on a white sand beach.

Beautiful Oman

12 night stay incorporating the capital Muscat and then in the high mountains of Jabal Akhdar. During this time we visited historical sites, swam in a Wadi, watched dolphins in Gulf of Oman and visited modern buildings such as Grand Mosque and Opera House Muscat

This was our 5th trip with ETG and they have always been friendly, efficient and professional. The trips they provide have always given us a great insight into the country we are visiting and enable us to meet the “real” people/places rather than the usual tourist spots

Hi Paul,

Thanks so much for your feedback, sounds like you had a wonderful time in Oman. It is such a diverse and interesting country.

I’m glad you enjoyed your 5th trip with us- I’m sure, we can make your 6th even more special!

Thanks,
Sara

A glimpse of Bali

We had a brief trip to Bali and felt transported to another world. We were captivated by the peace and tranquillity of the rice fields, fascinated by the richness of the vegetation and adherence to ancient traditions in the villages we visited.

Borneo Adventure by HPN , 7 Nov 2023
Holiday Rating:

Borneo trip exceeds expectations

Visiting Borneo and particularly seeing orangutans in the wild was on our ‘bucket list’ . We knew there was no guarantees but we had our first wild orangutan sighting on day 1 - a mother and baby- and it just got better.

Perfect from start to finish

We had the best week in Oman. It was our first visit and the first time we’d done an organised private tour, so we weren’t entirely sure what to expect (although all documentation and communication was very clear and informative), but it was superb, exactly what we wanted.

An experience of a lifetime

With the help of our excellent driver / guide we were able to see beautiful parts of Sri Lanka and experience different aspects of life with locals in a very unique way. The accommodation we stayed at were all different but all excellent as were the staff.
