Places and experiences that I could never have managed as an independent traveller
Wonderful meals, lovely local hotels, excellent leaders and experiences that I would never have managed alone - the stand-out and unforgettable memories are of walking in the Bieszczady hills (and a wonderful hotel in Wetlina) and a visit to the old synagogue in Lancut.

Superbly organised from start to finish - from the booking experience to the journey home.The sort of interesting independent hotels that I would have chosen myself as an independent traveller and wonderful food and drink showcasing the local cuisine. A small group and experienced knowledgeable leaders. Everything was smoothly and flawlessly organised, while still letting us feel that we could move independently if we wished.





Poland Culture and Walking
Mixture of cultural activities and mountain walking

Small operator, always show concern for clients, attention to detail.





Amazing Azores
We spent 8 days spent exploring 3 of the Azores islands and we could have spent another 8 days. These are hidden gems, packed full of wildlife, history, geographical features and island charm.

Kudu Travel go that extra mile and find unusual places to stay and lots of varied activities to do each day. The new hotel in Pico was outstanding in every way. Kudu thoroughly research every detail and make sure everything is of the highest quality. They find amazing restaurants and with all meals and drinks included you can spend all the time enjoying the holiday to the full.





An outstanding week of mountain wildflower walks and chamber music concerts
We stayed in an excellent Swiss hotel near Gstaad. Each morning, after a superb full breakfast, we used the wonderful railways and mountain gondolas to enjoy alpine wildflower-bedecked walks and picnics. In the early evenings door to door transport was provided to and from four excellent concerts after which we could enjoy the hotel's outstanding selection of cheeses and desert.

Kudu Travel offers expertly researched and led small group walking holidays with an eye for excellent locations, hotels, regional food and wine and cultural activities





The best of both worlds - land and sea
The Azores is an amazing archipelago, each island is unique with beautiful views, unusual varieties of wild flowers and plants. The sea offers an amazing array of whales and dolphins whose antics are a joy to behold. There are some spectacular walks especially round the rim of the caldera on Faial. The local wines are very good and as expected some very tasty fish and sea food. The ferries between islands are very efficient and makes travelling ...

Kudu offers a well organised enjoyable trip with a good range of activities. The hotels and restaurants are well chosen and of a good quality and value for money. The tour leader who accompanies the trip is very knowledgeable and ensures everything goes to plan. The personal attention is one of Kudu's unique services.





Discovering Finland
This was an exceptionally well-organised, all-inclusive week, relaxed and fun but with memorable music events (Kuhmo chamber music festival; two superb operas in the famous Savonlinna castle)and visits to out of the way places, including Sibelius' house. The choice of restaurants was delightful and first class.

I have the highest praise for our two tour guides who remained on top of things throughout the trip while remaining relaxed and fun and caring. The amount of research they had done before the trip, their tireless attention to detail and the choices made for us were exceptional. I felt very safe and looked after and free to join in or not as the mood took me. Given the first class nature of everything on the trip (hotels; restaurants; opera tickets, etc,) it was very good value for money.





Walking in the Cevennes
A lovely walking holiday made even more enjoyable by the knowledge and enthusiasm of the leaders

Kudu as ever organised a great trip which ran smoothly and efficiently. The mix of activity and culture is good.





Informed and excellent guiding enabled us to see everything we had hoped to see on our trip as well as opening our eyes to what Northern Cyprus has to offer.
We had a terrific holiday in Northern Cyprus at the time when birds were migrating north and passing through Cyprus. Our guide was excellent and enabled us not only to see (and identify) the migrating bird species but also was able to introduce us to the beautiful fauna (especially orchids) in flower at that time of year. There are many, almost untouched, archeological sites and it was incredible to wander around these and imagine what life ...

Efficient, knowledgable, well organised and good to talk to.





An excellent and varied itinerary
We went to N Cyprus and were introduced to many of the historical sites as well as studying the flora and bird life in particular the migrating birds in the Carpaz.
