"Lucy at Exotic Voyages planned the best honeymoon my wife and I could have asked for. She listened to what my wife and I wanted to do, and turned that into an unforgettable 10 day vacation. We went through 4 different itineraries before we landed on the final one. Lucy was always friendly and very quick to answer any questions we had. She took care of every detail, Visas, ground transportation, tours, etc. If you are planning on going to Vietnam, you MUST use Lucy and Exotic Voyages."

What travelers are saying

"I've just returned from my trip to China, a week ago. I've seen many-many interesting places of Guangdong and Guangxi provinces. But most of all i liked my 2-days trip to Longshen villages with my guide Frank from chinahighlights. The day before our trip has started, in Guilin, Frank met me in hotel and told about our journey. Next 2 days we visited traditional ancient chinese villages (the biggest from them are Ping'an and Dazhai), walking around them, saw the rice-terraces landscape (it was really unbelievable). Also we had a hiking between villages, and stayed at night at ZhongLiu village. I haven't seen any tourists in this village, even chinese tourists. It was fantastic cause we've seen real chinese life of local people, including, for example, planting vegetables, collecting tea). Very quiet, fresh air, natural food. Yes, in this village almost no shops, no souvenirs, but you dont need them. All around you a hundred times better. I advice all, who wants to see real chinese life, visit this place, especially this village, stay at night there. Thanks very much to my guide Frank and chinahighlights for this trip!"

What travelers are saying

"Because I have Stage 4 cancer, I chose to spend the extra money for trip insurance in case my cancer recurred. When a scan showed that it had, I cancelled my trip. I sent to them the medical documents from the Mayo Clinic confirming my new diagnosis. They sent me an email telling me my oncologist needed to fill in a form. I asked my oncologist to do that and I submitted it by fax on April 6th. When I didn’t hear anything, I sent them more medical documentation and asked them to please push forward my refund as I have travel expenses from a clinical trial coming up. Several days later I received an email that they needed further documentation from my doctor. How much more documentation do you need than the patient has stage 4 metastatic cancer and is starting a clinical trial??? This is heartless to me. Please don’t plan to travel through Road Scholar if you’re medically vulnerable!!"

"We joined the Intrepid “Real Italy Food Tour” and enjoyed it thoroughly. Our tour guide, Micol, was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of good information. It seems Micol knew many of the staff of the venues we visited, including the pasta making class we attended. Our group of 11 travelers was extremely compatible, which greatly added to the fun and enjoyment."

What travelers are saying

"Lead by one of the most knowledgeable guides I’ve ever experienced in 40 years of travelling, this full on trip takes you to places in Turkey that many will never visit. Tour Leader Zafer’s passion for Greek, Roman and Ottoman history shone through on a tour which combined the best of Turkey’s historical sites and standout places of interest. Highlights galore, from the beautiful Blue Mosque, hundreds of drifting balloons in the Cappadocia early morning skies to the tragedy of seeing first hand relatively recent history in the form of the killing fields of Gallipoli. If you come expecting a relaxing 5*holiday experience, you should book an all-inclusive holiday to Marmaris. But if you want to dive headlong into a vibrant, colourful country that has been at the forefront of ancient and modern history this 14 day exploration maybe for you especially as we encountered so many exciting surprises along the way. Remember though, travelling over 2,500km does mean there are a number of early starts and long hours in a minibus, which can be hard. However, we were lucky in that our group of 8 intrepid travellers got on well and time passed quickly. Finally, a quick mention for the hotels selected by Explore. They were in the main pretty good 3 star centrally located tourist hotels. Most were small, family owned and whilst not bar one highly starred, they acted as good stopover hotels providing the basics of a good bed, warm shower and a breakfast which set you up for the day. All in all, a trip I would recommend especially in May when the Summer sun has not reached its peak."

Laos Tour Selection Trips

  • Bus trips through the mountains can be long and uncomfortable. Landslides may also disrupt travel plans, so make sure your plans are flexible.
  • If you visit Vang Vieng to try the infamous “tubing”, you may be disappointed. Visitors can still float down the river in a rubber tube, but the riverside bars have all been shut down following a number of accidents involving tourists. Instead, the stopping points along the river are now spaces to play games and meet others (though rumor has it alcohol continues to be sold here).
  • When choosing a trek in the northern mountains, make sure to choose a route appropriate to your fitness level, as well as ensuring to bring appropriate shoes and clothing.
  • Malaria exists in parts of Laos, so anti-malarials, mosquito nets, and mosquito repellant are recommended.
  • Act respectfully and dress appropriately when visiting buddhist temples. Remove your shoes and use only your right hand to ring bells and make offerings.
  • English is common throughout Laos, particularly in tourist areas. Learning a few words in the Lao language, however, can be a nice way to interact with locals.
