Every client receives a feedback survey when they return from their guided, self guided or tailor made holiday with us. Once completed the review is published on our website just as soon as our database updates. The little touches and details are important to us and where issues are raised we make positive changes to our trips to improve your experience.

That’s why we read each of our client’s reviews and although we don’t respond to all of them, if it’s glowing feedback then we get the satisfaction of helping to make your holidays truly memorable.

The Bottom Line

Trip Comments

Our guide, Ben, greeted us with a wide smile and a manner of having all the time in the world, while at the same time full of energy for the upcoming adventure. He made our transfer to the van seamless, although we must have been like a gaggle of geese, all from different flocks. I was along with my husband, Peter and planned to stay behind at the Seatoller House to work and take my own walks, as I have a very arthritic knee. This was a delight. Our room had a large window that looked out onto a beautiful garden, forest and stream, full of birds. I even had a walking companion, Meg, who is a delightful Border Terrier. The staff of the hotel was simply brilliant. Nigel was efficient and seemed to think of everything to ease our stay. Trish is a brilliant chef. Our meals were 5-star delights. Meal time conversation amongst our diverse group (Ireland, New York, Montreal, Hawai`i) was interesting and at times hilarious. But if I had to point out just one factor that made this trip wonderful, I’d have to say it was Ben. He is vastly experienced and has a deep historic knowledge, both local and world-wide. But most of all, he has something we call Aloha in Hawai`i.

A fantastic trip with great walks but be prepared for some scrambling and a lot of rocky paths. Accommodation great and all food was delicious. I’d definitely recommend this trip.
