Fascinating trip in SE Asia
We visited Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and Burma (Myanmar). Great holiday - a fascinating and vibrant part of the world, which we had not visited, except for Thailand thirty years ago. A very enjoyable time.

Experience Travel helped us choose an interesting and varied itinerary, and ensured that the arrangements ran smoothly and successfully. We would definitely recommend them.

Most enjoyable from start to finish
Just back from Myanmar which we havel loved for the whole three weeks. Every recommendation from David Gookey worked extremely well. Our guides in Myanmar were all very good and three out of four exceptional.

Excellent knowledge of where to go, what to do and where to stay. Programme devised to give a good mix of leisure time and sightseeing. Arrangements for my wife's birthday very good at Lake Inle
Hi Monty - I'm thrilled that you had a fantastic time and I'll pass on your praise in your more detailed feedback to the guide in Kalaw and Inle. I hope you managed to eat all of the Burmese dishes I suggested in my blog post! Looking forward to arranging your next adventure, David





Sri Lanka the superb
We have just returned from a wonderful holiday in Sri Lanka arranged by and through Experience travel. It was impeccably organised,matching our requirements and expectations and wonderfully guided by our local driver/guide. The recommended hotels came up to scratch in all respects and the entire experience demonstrated Experience's savoir faire (to avoid a third use of experience in nearly as many words!)

A Great Experience of Sri Lanka
Together with Experience travel we put together a very varied itinerary to tour some of the less visited areas of Sri Lanka. It was a great success all round.

Family holiday to Sri Lanka
We are a family of 6 (4 teenagers) and spent two weeks in Sri Lanka touring some of the cultural sites and wildlife parks north of Colombo, then travelling south through Kandy and the tea country and then spent a final few days on a beach near Galle. We had a full time driver and stayed in mainly family run high quality boutique hotels.

The agent at Experience Travel, Nick Clarke, clearly knew Sri Lanka very well. He understood the dynamics of our family and the needs of teenagers and designed an excellent itinerary for us that mixed plenty of interesting activity, relaxation with not too much driving. we had to make a number of changes to the holiday die to family circumstances and Nick was very efficient and calm in reorganising everything.
Hi Philip,
Thank you so much for taking the time to post this review and we're really pleased you had such a successful family holiday.

Excellent Holiday
We had a fantastic holiday in Sri Lanka with Experience Travel and their local partner. We were looked after the whole way (and a big thanks to the driver, Capilla)and the itinerary arranged by Experience Travel was perfect. Only on one occasion did we have a misunderstanding with one of the hotels about what was included and Experience Travel sorted it out and stood the difference in cost. Not a single bad comment. Thank you Experience Travel...

Amazing two week family tour of Vietnam
We spent an amazing two weeks touring Vietnam this summer with our two children. Starting in Hanoi and covering Halong Bay, Mai Chau, Hoi An and finishing in Saigon. We had a wonderful diversity of experiences from cruising and exploring Halong Bay, visiting and meeting many different tribes and villages in Mai Chau, relaxing by the beach in Hoi An and loving the busy cities of Hanoi and Saigon.

Our guides were all fantastic and very knowledgeable, accomodation and food were all excellent and the activities allowed a mix of relaxation, experiencing local cultures and understanding the history of Vietnam. The chidrens holiday favourite was the vespa tour of Saigon. One of our best ever holidays - we would definately recommend experience travel

This is the second time we have used experience travel to arrange our holiday - we have visited Sri Lanka and Vietnam Our travel consultant Nick really listens to what we want and like to do and builds a holiday to suit us and both of our children. He has always been happy to make amendments and change the itinerary to build our perfect holiday When we arrived on both holidays everything has run smoothly, we have always been very well looked after and there have never been any problems. It has really made it a relaxed and enjoyable tour having everything arranged in advance. The guides we have had in both Sri Lanka and Vietnam have all been excellent and really made a difference to our holidays
Hi Darren,
So great to hear. Thank you for taking the time to write such a fantastic review and also entrusting us with a second family holiday. Hope you make it a third one day!
All the best,
Sam

They were very good in organising the holiday and whilst we were away they were very responsive and helpful in dealing with several issues we had.
Thanks Julia. I know that delayed bags to the start of a holiday is not ideal, and was glad that all worked out at the beach in the end, and that you had a great holiday!





Amazing Borneo family adventure
We had a wonderful 10 days exploring Borneo: Gaya Island, Mulu and the Kinabatangan River. Each place was beautiful in its own unique way and was made special by the people who drove and guided us.
