Travel to England

“Well thought out plan—perfect for our age. Hotels were superb, as well as guides—which included college professors. Not the run-of-the-mill kind of trip, specifically catering our needs. We never ran into a problem—all went really smooth for ten days—they thought of things we didn’t contemplate. Brilliantly planned by Luis of Hidden In Spain. Thank you!”

“We recently returned from a 14-day visit to France organized by Vaseem Akarim. As international travel veterans (more than 100 countries combined), we were extremely impressed by the detailed itinerary and personal suggestions prepared by Vaseem. All three of our different hotel stays were excellent with gracious hosts, all of the many transfers were punctual and performed by experience drivers, and all of the tours scheduled by Vaseem were led by knowledgable and personable guides. This was my fifth visit to France and my wife’s second and certainly the best experience in the country for both of us. Even the crowds in Paris and Mont Sainte-Michel were easy to deal with due to the information provided by Vaseem. So, in conclusion, all we can add is “Thank you, Vaseem.””

“We organised a 3-week tour of Bulgaria and Romania with Corina through Rough Guides. We couldn't be happier with the result. Corina helped us to plan a tour in line with our interests and requests, while making suggestions to improve our experience. All the guides were experienced, helpful and flexible. The hotels were all in central locations and perfect for our accommodation needs. We learned so much about these two countries and had a great time. We very highly recommend this service.”

“We used the Rough Guides referral tool to inquire about self-guided trips in Iceland. We received 2 proposals very quickly, both quite reasonable. We went with Traveo, who organized an excellent trip, with regular communication. The only issue was the weather (including one day of Orange wind warnings and closed roads) but I guess that was out of their control. . .”

“We booked a trip to Istanbul and Cappadocia which was brilliant. Everything went very smoothly, taxis turned up on time, hotels were comfortable and welcoming and any questions we had both before the trip and during it were answered promptly, even out of hours. All three tours which were part of our trip were interesting and the guides were knowledgeable and friendly. The 1811 Cave Hotel was stunning as was Cappodicia itself. All in all, we would throroughly recommend this trip.”

“My family had an amazing trip to Italy, planned by Rough Guides. We saw so many things but also didn't pack the itinerary too full, so every tour or experience was really amazing!”
