Nomadic Thoughts (Worldwide Travel) Traveller Reviews

We wanted to dip our toes into India and experience as many different experiences as possible in 3 weeks. We took in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Mumbai, Amritsar, Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. We travelled by plane, train and car.

Nomadic thoughts helped us to plan our itinerary based on time, cost and diversity. They were extremely helpful and proactive throughout the whole process. We felt very confident that our holiday was well planned and that any potential problems were either covered or that we had the tools at hand to deal with them.

I was travelling with a friend to India. I had never been to the country before and wanted to see as much of it as possible in 10 days. Nomadic Thoughts organised the trip which exceeded all my expectations -- and they were high to begin with.

They are a remarkable company, unrivalled in my experience. They took a great deal of time and care to organise a package within our budget and time constraints, making sure that the experience was effortless and magical, providing excellent guides and drivers to take us around the various cities we visited

I visited Russia in June for the World Cup with Nomadic Thoughts. Even though prices were much higher given that there were so many visitors to Russia, NT found me excellent accomodation, very reasonable flights and even managed to arrange some free train travel within Russia. All round amazing.

NT listen very attentively to what your travel needs are and how one is looking to shape one's itinerary generally. They then take this blueprint and make it actionable and ultimately deliver the perfect travel solution to you in an easily presented format (both paper and electronic, with the latter enhanced by data delivery via the latest IT apps) and then execute it in an efficient, timely and seamless manner.

Three week Canadian trip starting in Calgary and finishing in Vancouver. Self drive with pre-booked accommodation, ferries and car hire. Took in the Rockies from Banff through Lake Victoria to Jasper. On to Whistler with stop offs in Clearwater and Sun Peaks. Horseshoe Bay to Vancouver Island staying in Parksville, Tofino and Victoria. Last days in Vancouver.

Nomadic Thoughts arranged the itinerary, bookings and local support (happily not required but great to have). Top quality organisation, communication and information provision. Highly recommended.

Our Kenyan safari was a trip of a lifetime. 10 days in 3 fabulous locations - Loisaba in Laikipia, Sasaab in Samburu and Naibor in Maasai Mara. A mixture of tented camps and lodges, our accommodation was superb and wonderfully varied. It had crossed our minds whether 10 days might be too much, particularly with 3 older kids, but honestly, we just couldn't get enough. We even managed to squeeze in one last game drive before departing on our final morning.

Our safari was tailored to perfection by Jono of Nomadic Thoughts. He was charming, professional and expert. The range of contrast in the places he selected – from the scenery and landscape, to the wildlife, and the variety of accommodation styles – all surpassed our expectations.

We travelled mostly by road from Delhi to Udaipur taking in six stops within and beyond the Golden Triangle. We stayed in a variety of hotels/palaces/havelis they all had charm, excellent service, mostly good views, swimming pools and adventurous restaurants on the premises. During the days we visited local sights in the cities and the countryside. We were driven by a superb driver who negotiated the raucous life on India's roads, rickshaws, lorries, cows, camels, pigs, pedestrians, with extreme calm and good humour. We were joined by guides for each tour who contributed to the experience of old and modern with great enthusiasm and insight answering the flow of questions that arise from palaces to poverty in this extraordinary country. In between elephant rides, wildlife tours, temple admiration, we were hassled and haggled and sold to, when this became overwhelming we were taken to a quiet, (comparatively) place for masala chai. A truly memorable holiday, not for a lifetime because we shall be back for more!

Well planned tour, tailored to our particular requests ,( i.e. love of ornithology). We always received rapid and helpful response to our queries, for example a change of plan, the changeover of guides and places happened quickly and efficiently, and the car was always waiting at the point of exhaustion to pick us up! App. Vamos was very useful, which reflects the care given by Nomadic Thoughts. This adventure was created with imagination and sensitivity.

We did hanoi, halong bay, hue, hoi an, ho chi minh and Sean reap. It was an amazing experience and flowed very easily with being picked up by our guides so it was very hassle free. On times when we didn't have a guide the booklet became very useful as for any extra activities we could do whilst the app vaamos was essential for getting us round using the map and proved irreplaceable.

Very good and informative. Punctual and always waiting for us for the time they had set for our pick up

We traveled through Ecuador (including Galapagos), Peru, Bolivia and Chile. History/culture, landscapes and wildlife were all stunning and the people friendly and welcoming throughout.

We had an amazing trip and are extremely grateful to Nomadic Thoughts for making it possible. Their knowledge, advice and organisation skills were invaluable and they documented the entire trip in a clear and engaging way. No details were omitted.

Honeymoon touring the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico

Absolutely exceptional personal, caring service. Patient and responsive. Everything went smoothly in a country where we expected a few hiccups. Thank you!

It was amazing from start to finish, so well organised and the recommendations made by Nomadic Thoughts were excellent. We can’t fault any of the destinations, accommodation or activities. The travel arrangements went to plan and there was always help when we needed it, although the need for help was rare.

Jono and the team at Nomadic Thoughts were fantastic from start to finish. So much thought and planning had gone into it we didn’t need to do a thing. Excellent service, we will use them again in the future for our next holiday 😃
