Why I Travel: I love travelling to places I know from reading books or from films I’ve watched. Also, I also love meeting new people, and learning new customs. Travelling is also a time to be out of our daily routine.

My Most Amazing Travel Experience: When I recently visited Golden Rock ( Kyaikhtiyo), it was amazing to see clouds rolling under my feet. Also, the environment was very lush and green, and the Golden Rock was brilliantly illuminated through the fog when it was lit by spotlights, which was stunning.

My Dream Trip: I want to walk along the Great Wall of China, and see the Eiffel Tower.

My Insider Tip for Myanmar: In Myanmar, when you meet people, always try to say “Mingalabar” which is our greeting word for “hello”. Then you will see the happiness in their eyes when they learn that you have respected their culture, and they will be always ready to help you.

Having grown up in South Africa exploring the wildlife, mountains and coast, I was inspired to travel and from a young age, became fascinated with South-East Asia. After numerous trips, I made my passion my profession and now 14 years later I am still working for a local Travel company in Southeast Asia and can’t imagine a better place for me.

We spent 10 days in Cambodia and overall I must say it was perfectly organized, the tourist guides were of high quality, they had a thorough knowledget about the places and perfect English. Also prior to my trip the communication with the travelling agent/coordinator was very pleasant and clear. In order to help the agency to improve to be even better partner let me highlight two things. The trip to Great Tonle Sap Lake in February, i.e. dry season is definitely not worth to visit. Everything was muddy, sometimes we were afraid to be stuck in the river that lacked enough water. I am not sure if this trip in rainy season becomes more interesting but I would have skipped this half day trip if I could. Moreover, the tour guide in Angkor Wat was for sure very experienced and had a great English but I am afraid he didn´t even notice that some of my friends didn´t have such a good English and yet he kept talking in a very sophisticated way to them which sometimes was a bit awkward. We felt like on a public historic presentation rather than having a friendly and empathic partner who understand our needs and wishes. The tour guide in Phnom Penh was really good on the other hand. Last but not the least, the selection of the hotels was also optimal, we were very happy. There was a little misunderstanding in Siem Reap where we had to be transferred to a different hotel because of the lack of capacities in the previous one but that was rather a detail. This is my second time and again was really happy, I am sure it is not my last trip!

This e-mail is to express how we enjoyed the trip we had with Henry as driver and guide, all over Malaysia. Henry was very committed in his role: he could show us interesting sites and explain to us topics about history of Malaysia. We can say that we appreciated our trip, for a great part, thanks to Henry.

In December, just before Christmas, we have been to Malaysia and had a great time there! Thank you for the support and organization. Especially our driver/guide "Jacob" was the best choice ever! Without him, our trip would not have been half as good as it was!

Malaysia is an incredible place, with everything from city, to rainforest, to tropical islands, all rounded off with incredible food and friendly people. Insight guides took all the worry from any planning we had to do, and built

Excellent trip. Well organized, great guides, balanced itinerary. Terrific hotels with the exception of the offered room at the Amata Resort in Ngapali Beach, however the inadequacy was solved with an upgrade. Would recommend Backyard unconditionally.
