Nice hotel with very friendly staff. About an hour from anywhere! Weather poor so visibility very limited at times. Could not visit, or even see, Capri or take the planned boat trip.
Most Inspirational Moment
Visits to Herculaneum and Pompeii. Fortunately it did not rain during the visits.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Excellent. Despite the poor weather he made alternative arrangements. He was very knowledgeable about the area and has a good senses of humour, which countered some of the disappointment caused by the weather.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Take a brolly.

Advice for Potential Travellers
Keep a eye on you money, I had about £200 stolen from my bum bag, most likely from my room in one of the longer stay hotels. As it wasn't my daily money so I didn't find out until unpacking at home.

Thoughts on Group Leader
Excellent. The night before we returned to Belize from Guatemala, our guide, Jorge, suggested an early start to make sure we could get to the crossing point early and not join a huge queue (we'd seen it on the way in). We duly got up for an early start with our packed breakfasts provided by the hotel and made it to the crossing point for it to open. By the time we got to the front the queue was well over double the length and the day already starting to get hot. A brilliant move on our guides part. Additionally, very knowledgeable on the bird life and generally keen to show us his country.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Beware the humidity, take very lightweight clothing, including some with long sleeves. Keep drinking the water. You will need more than you realize.

What a trip, fabulous day after day.
We had such a good time in Vietnam. The guide V was superb, so professional, really interesting and telling us about the historical and cultural aspects as well as what we were doing. His enthusiasm and pride in Vietnam was contagious. We went to so many different places and experiences. Each day I thought we had the highlight of the trip and the next day was fantastic as well, so varied in activities, scenery, weather and modes of transport.
Most Inspirational Moment
Hard to chose between the trek with the lovely hill tribe women helping us, the hot tubs in the homestay, feeling so off the beaten track. Cat Ba and kayaking in Halong bay, magical. The caves were enormous and extraordinary, really beautiful. We went to the water puppets in Hanoi and the AO show in HCMC. Both amazing.
Thoughts on Group Leader
See above, such a lovely person, so helpful in every regard to make the trip perfect for us all.

Take good walking boots for the hike.
Not much time to chill but good to do everything.

Food is relatively cheap but If you do all the optional trips it will be an extra £200 +

This trip is worth 7 stars!!!!
Wow, what an adventure! AMAZING GUIDE, AMAZING GROUP, AMAZING COUNTRY AND DELICIOUS FOOD!!!
Most Inspirational Moment
From the moment we landed, it was an adventure that kept on giving - every day was magical in its own unique way. I'm sure each person in our group pinched ourselves to say 'is this really real' and guess what, it was!! The whole trip exceeded our expectations from start to finish!
Thoughts on Group Leader
There aren't enough superlatives to describe 'V' - what a gentleman - well read, knowledgeable, funny, kind and sincere. What a lovely man - we were blessed to have him as our guide and his presence was the icing on our cake - Surely a top candidate for 'Leader of the Year' award!
Advice for Potential Travellers
Don't hesitate, you will love every second of it!
Oh and be prepared for the most most delicious food ever!

Good trip with long days
Covers all the expected areas and some unexpected ones. Pacing often seemed hurried but in retrospect was about right. Reasonable vehicle used with enough space, although the single seats seemed rather narrow (the seat belt connectors were recessed make the narrowness less noticeable) Lots of early starts but in most cases there was time to look around the overnight stops in daylight. The lunch stops in most cases offered options, but not all. Evening meals were of a good standard throughout. Hotels were very varied, from bunkhouse to very good. As expected the Athens hotel was the worst, tiny room, impossible to walk round the room without climbing over the bed and in a dingy sidestreet.
Most Inspirational Moment
Being in the Olympic Stadium ruins completely alone.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Very good on detail and organisation but does need to limit the static time or learn to talk and walk.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Ignore the advice about the water being safe, it is if you are southern European but very iffy for the north European. Came back with a water borne bug.
