This was the best overall experience I have had on a vacation, would not change a thing. Everyday in Rome and Florence we wished we were back at the Villa. I hope to return with family next time. (more)Peg Grogan

Memorable parts?
Everything was memorable........from the stunning scenery, the friendly and kind people, great local food and excellent guide and driver.
Tips?
Food is freshly prepared so can take a while to arrive. Produce is seasonal and supplies can be sporadic so don't expect everything mentioned on the menu to be available - might be prudent to check first. It is quite likely that the internal flights to/from Gilgit will be delayed or cancelled, so be prepared as you may ... (more)Sharon burns

Brilliant - so many activities, lovely places to see, excellent food, and very reasonable, both the stay at hotel itself and all the local prices and activities. (more)Simon Saunders
The hotel is secluded, peaceful and comfortable and it seems to be very eco friendly without impacting on basics, so there is always water and power. The scenery is beautiful and we also did some lovely deserted walks. (more)Olivia Cox

The UNESCO-listed walled, old city of Khiva, known as Ichon Qala, was the unexpected gem of this trip. Also, swimming in the man-made Lake Aidarkul in the middle of the Kyzylkum desert was a surprising and relaxing pleasure.

Visiting the silk road cities of Samarkand, Khiva and Bukhara and having time to wander in each place and admire the reconstructed buildings. The guide Dilshod is extremely knowledgeable and a superb fixer. Uzbekistan is full of architectural surprises and friendly people. I would highly recommend a trip there. (more)Sally-Anne Deards

It was an amazing experience and a vacation too. We fell in love with Costa Rica, its people, food, and wildlife. Tortuguero was amazing and we got up really close to a sloth. The 13 zip lines were exhilarating and the monkeys, iguanas and beach at Manuel Antonio were all high points. Too many high points really!
(more)Nikki Hancock
Excellent. A very different place to the UK. It was lovely to walk in the tropical forest and see the massive trees as well as spot the local animals although a bit too focused on the birds for those of us who were not 'bird watchers'. Great to meet local people on the chocolate and coffee plantations we visited. The accommodation was excellent and clean. (more)Stella Jales

There’s more to it than just the exercises it’s the whole programme of healthy food and being able to get extra treatments to add on if you wanted. Excellent. (more)Susie Barrett
