Undiscovered Destinations Traveller Reviews

Fantastic trip through this intriguing country. Lovely to visit such a distinctive culture with terrific walks in stunning landscapes.

Very good with all the arrangements and choice of hotels and guides.

Visiting the far north of Pakistan - memorable drives, spectacular scenery, wonderful, friendly people. A unique experience

We’ve used Undiscovered Destinations before - very professional

Although this was a group tour there were only 3 on trip so it felt like tailor made as following the itinerary was very flexible. Our local guide was excellent very knowledgeable and was able to solve any problems which were beyond our control efficiently. I cannot think of enough superlatives to describe mynholiday

Excellent service prompt answers to all my questions .

An enjoyable, well organised tour of the Baltic States using knowledgeable local guides.

Undiscovered Destinations.

We spent one day in Helsinki before taking the ferry to Tallin. The tour over two weeks took us throught Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. It was so well organised with only 4 participants. Our guides were nationals of all the countries that we visited and very professional, well informed and enthusiastic, proud of their countries. We learned so much about the history, culture and caracter of the areas we visited.

Undiscovered Destinations, specialise in small group tours visiting both popular and less well known places.

We spent 3 wks touring Madagascar from east to west and down to the south. Really good drivers and guides who spoke excellent english. The roads are indeed awful but it means the pace of the holiday allows you to really engage with the countryside as you are travelling. The national parks are interesting and varied. Hotels were better than expected and the food was plentiful and well presented, It is a very poor country and its best to be prepared for the amount of begging in both the cities and in the countryside.

Kept us well informed before we travelled and answered all our queries honestly.. The price was very good for all the inclusions we had.

Jim at Undiscovered organised 2 holidays to Thailand and a fly drive to the USA in New England. Being greedy we had two holidays to celebrate a 50th and 60th birthdays. Both were tailored and they were designed bb Jim based upon our wishes and his personal experiences. The trip to Thailand was multi centred and the local guides were excellent and turned up on time. Excellent value and delivered what I said on the tin! He made our expectations real and guided us to what was achievable and worthwhile. The fly drive to Boston and New England was excellent. The choice of destinations , driving time and the advice to avoid the freeways was spot on. I just wish we had more time to explore. We managed to find lots of places to visit based upon his suggested driving routes. Can’t recommend them highly enough.

Nothing was too much trouble. The plan worked like clockwork and everything planned went as expected. He also made sure what we wanted to do was achievable and we could enjoy it. No point in trying to squeeze to much in so it can’t be appreciated. So use the expertise that’s there and let them guide you to a memorable experience.

I went on a 7-day trip to Azerbaijan (Land of Fire) and the company arranged 2 bespoke extensions (4 day in Nackchivan) and 4-5 day trek in the caucus mountains. Overall, the trip was excellent (highlight was Nackchivan, the trek in the Caucus mountains was also good) but there were a few issues on the trip: 1, I wasn't met at the airport on arrival, had to contact he local company to send someone around which took a long time, 2, On the first part (group tour), emphasis was getting us to lunch instead of showing us the sites in Naftalan and Gobustan and 3, given that the trek was expensive, I wasn't provided with an English speaking guide, I had 2 guides in Nackchivan who were both excellent.

My score would have been 'excellent' were it not for the issues mentioned above. The administrative side (booking trip, making arrangments and setting up bespoke aspects) was excellent.

My wife and I had a wonderful tour of the beautiful Comoros Islands with Undiscovered Destinations. This 11 day tour took us to all three of the Comoros islands. We had a different guide on each island and all of them were friendly, cheerful, and knowledgeable. The local people were reserved, but polite. Comoros seemed very safe. There is almost no crime. We never felt uncomfortable. On the other hand we were disappointed to see so much trash along the roadsides, from plastic bottles to abandoned cars, especially on the large island. The beaches on each of the islands were spectacularly beautiful and empty of people. The water is warm and clear. The islands are also famous for the many spices they grow. The Comoros are virtually undiscovered by the tourism business. The country is rated the third least visited in the world. That should change as foreign visitors return home with stories of these beautiful islands. The main island, Grand Comore, is the largest and has the most people. It also has one of the most active volcanos in the world. We enjoyed the two smaller islands more, because they have done a better job of preserving their natural environment. They have more stunning scenery. Of the smaller islands, Anjouan has the most historic sites. The people in Anjouan seem more proud of themselves and more friendly. Moheli was our favorite island. It is the smallest and least populated. This is the island you would visit if you want to forget about the developed world and enjoy peace, quiet, and nature. We spent three days at Laka Lodge, an intimate resort favored by divers and snorkelers. We took the opportunity to snorkel in one of the most pristine coral reefs in the world. This was the only place we saw other tourists during our Comoros tour. On Moheli we snorkeled with sea turtles and enormous manta rays who swam right up to us, probably from curiosity. We also enjoyed the lemurs who came to lodge every evening hoping for food. This is a great destination for nature lovers.

UNDISCOVERED DESTINATIONS TAKES CARE OF EVERY DETAIL

We went with a private guide/driver who was a fount of knowledge about his country. We loved the beautiful scenery. Albania has everything: mountains, lakes, and stunning beaches. Prices for accommodation and food are reasonable, and best of all it is not crowded - yet!
