Excellent guide

Excellent guide Showed us nooks and crannies for best photos

Close up to dancers Excellent show

The location was wonderful, the amenities were very good, the staff was very friendly and helpful. In fact, the best meal we had was at a local restaurant across the street in the commercial center (2nd Floor) which someone recommended. We used the spa, which was well priced and a nice treat. The rooms were large and comfortable and ours had air conditioning. The negative which keeps them from 5 stars is that you cannot flush the toilet paper in the toilets. They should upgrade the system to handle that.

Our tour guide was fantastic.

Romantic 🥰

Best hike ever. Beautiful views.

Beautiful boutique hotel just on the edge of Pueblo. Loved all the exotic greenery, tasteful decor and location

Beautiful boutique style hotel , spacious, light filled with the most fabulous roof top lounge area , small pool, sun lounge and restaurant. Food was uncomplicated, delicious and beautifully presented . The staff at Los Pilares were so helpful and efficient. Always with a genuine smile. Loved this place and was so sad to leave it!

Excellent central location within walking distance of Museum Belles Artes . Vibe is rather corporate and formal, lacking charm, the rooms dark and soulless although very clean and well appointed, huge bed, smart bathroom but the water wasn’t hot. Room right by atrium so noisy whilst breakfast was being set up early morning. Breakfast food rather average, good fruit and juices, everything else rather stale and dry. Redeeming feature were the restaurant staff who were all so sweet and attentive and a few of the reception staff

Damp, our room was right at bottom of Stoney track and staff totally disinterested. Didn’t even know we were arriving and it was not busy. Dirty sofa was our first impression of room and not enough hot water for a shower.

It’s everything I don’t like in a hotel. Big, soulless down a development of other horrid hotels. Big rooms , soulless and the air conditioning has an awful chemical smell that made me feel sick. It was clean and staff were very nice. Breakfast was awful.

Pablo is a real authority on this . Not to be missed

Again it was our guide Pablo that made this one of the most enjoyable cultural tours we did. His knowledge of the artefacts and Diego’s motivation to collect , what each piece represented was astounding and thus knowledge lay the foundation to every thing else we went into see. Brilliant experience

Fascinating place and guide good

Another wonderful guide that transformed this experience. Very knowledgeable about the national park and genuinely a mountain lover! We started at 4000 meters and climbed to 4500 meters of the “ white lady”. Hard at this altitude so got a real sense of achievement. We also met some very funny and friendly fellow climbers.

Without this tour we would never have fully appreciated the significance of the street art we saw. Stories of the artists, the subject matter and techniques. Our guide Ariel was an absolute gem. So knowledgeable and passionate about his city and art. Fabulous English too. We had a great morning with him cycling around the best of the murals. This is a must activity to really fall in love with Oaxaca

Loved this city and our hotel. Easy to walk around and absorb the atmosphere.

Already given a description of this. Top experience.

We started with a tour of the local market, a local church to soak up the vibe and cultural richness of this small town just outside oaxaca. Our guide Alejandro was so knowledgeable and relaxed and really knows food and the history of his country. Our cooking experience was so special and we felt so privileged to spend time with this family and cook with them. Dalia planned a menu to suit our unsettled tummies and used herbs to promote digestion and healing in the most delicious soup and chicken broth. We made tacos which was great fun and ground cacoa nibs and made them into a delicious treat. We will always remember this . So special.

Already reviewed. Fabulous

What a wonderful and unique experience! Open air rooms with nothing but the buzz of the jungle to lull you to sleep. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Delicious food and fresh juices. I loved lying in the hammock, drinking a cold one on a hot day and listening to the Amazon's natural symphony. p.s. get a massage :)

Very nice staff, room was clean but tiny and the bed was uncomfortable.

The most comfortable hotel I stayed at during my 2 weeks in Peru. Nice sized clean room, comfy bed. Close to everything. Really appreciated the water refilling machine in a town where everything costs at least double :)

Pretty nice, comfy private rooms, centrally located, friendly staff. In the bar downstairs they have a fun welcome drink / jenga game every night for guests and live music many of the nights. Good common areas including a little library and movie theater. Good bar food and a coffee shop downstairs too.

My bed was sooo uncomfortable. I got a terrible stiff neck and soar back and felt sick from not getting any good sleep. I tried to cancel the last 3 nights of my reservation (48 hours ahead of time) as I was leaving for Aqua Calientes for a few days but they REFUSED. It was sooo bad I paid to stay in a hotel instead. I will NEVER stay here again. There are way better hotel options in the same price range as a private room.

Well rounded sampling of delicious Peruvian foods. Our guide was very knowledgeable so we enjoyed learning about the foods as much as eating them. I wish there was more fish including Ceviche. Also, it's much more of a food tour, we did not explore very much of the city

Overall it was a very enjoyable and unique experience. I would be interested in what activities the other lodges offer as Refugio's are pretty limited unless you're an avid bird watcher.

If you'd like to try one the world's top rated restaurants (Central, Kjolle etc) book at least 3 months ahead of time! Either way there are soooo many good restaurants with availability. Check out the 100+ stray cats in Kennedy Park, good place to buy souvenirs too.

Well rounded tour of Incan ruins with beautiful city views. Valerio was a very friendly and knowledgable guide. We took a detour to an Alpaca factory where I found some beautiful handmade gifts.

Beautiful ancient ruins and salt mines. Riding an ATV surrounded by mountains was so much fun. The Sacred Valley was majestic. Ollantaytambo was such a charming town to visit and stay in on the way to Machu Picchu. Again, Valerio was a fantastic guide.

Valerio helped me be prepared while not overpacking, which I was very grateful for the next day on the trail :)

Such a one of kind experience. Up high on a hill in the Sacred Valley surrounded by jagged snow capped mountains. Llamas and Alpacas grace the grounds and eat corn husks from your hands. The food was delicious, the ambiance is top notch. We caught the ATV rides from here not Moras, which I'm glad we did because this area has much more beautiful scenery.

Life changing experience for me! Gorgeous views the entire way. The boxed lunch was soo delicious. You will never forget the feeling of satisfaction when you walk through the sun gate and look down on a world wonder. Wiñay Wayna was amazing too.

Perfect amount of time to tour the city. Valerio was very knowledgeable. Plenty of opportunities for post card photos.

Wow, it lives up to the expectations in every way. It's so overwhelmingly beautiful it's a spiritual experience. The surrounding area is beautiful too.

Amazing chef and staff!!!

The breakfast was great and the staff very helpful but the location is at the busiest and loudest part of the port and we had people sleeping outside of the entrance during our stay which made it difficult to get in and out of the hotel.

Excellent dinner, superb wait staff and the singer was fantastic

We had a very poor day weather wise and really the trip should have been canceled , but it wasn't so we had to go or lose our money.

Very good location and efficient check in check out process. Breakfast could have been better by changing the menu. Everyday same options were repeated. All in all very good hotel.

Very good location and efficient check in check out process. Breakfast could have been better by changing the menu. Everyday same options were repeated. Parking next to the hotel was very useful All in all very good hotel.

Very good location and efficient check in check out process. Front office staff (I think his name was Christian) was extremely polite and helpful. Made sure we got the room we liked and offered us the fan in the room as it did not have air conditioning Breakfast could have been better by changing the menu. Everyday same options were repeated. All in all very good hotel.

Beautiful town and worth the visit

Most of the cafe and restaurant were closed. It was like a curfew

Driver was very rude and aggressive. My wife was a bit slow in getting off the bus and the guide taunted with lot of sarcasm “Oh I thought you are going to stay on the bus” When I asked him that we have booked the tour so why do we need to buy the entrance tickets for the Forest, the guide Complained nobody listens to me when I am talking and that we are wasting his free time by asking questions and that he does not get any tips. Guide told us that he spend DK 1,200 to bring us to the Forest (Is that our fault) When we asked him to open the bus so that we can get our bag that we have left behind, again he was aggressive and said that we are wasting his time but will oblige us just because we said please. The guide said that he is not discriminating. The fact that the guide said that is proof that he was in fact discriminating because we were the only dark skinned people in the bus. My wife was very nervous and felt threatened with the aggressive and hostile behavior of the guide to the extent that she started weeping. We had to abandon the trip and take a taxi in the rains back to the hotel, which meant 1 entire day wasted. Solveig was very kind and supportive and comforted us by offering to book a taxi for us.

We had planned to visit on Monday but it was closed so we went the next day

We had a nice quiet stay here. We had two rooms adjoining by a private hallway, which was very nice. It is an older hotel but has nice updates. The breakfast was very good, and it is within a few minutes walk of Plaka and the historical sites. The view from the bar is quite nice! We did not have an Acropolis view from our room but it was quiet except on the one weekend night we stayed there.

We had a nice time here! It is close to the downtown area for walking, and had free parking (we rented a car). The rooftop pool was a hit. Our room was nice and big, and had a balcony, so it worked very well for our family of 4. The breakfast is delicious!! Very nice help from the staff with parking.

This is a gem of a hotel. Perfectly situated in Ivermiglio, which was a quiet village with nice restaurants, supermarkets and some shops. The family room had a double bed on the first floor, along with sitting room, kitchenette. The upper loft had two twin beds, so it was great for the family. Our room was right on the Fira to Oia trail, so we could easily get down to Fira. The staff here is so so so lovely. They helped direct us to things to do, were so kind, and offered us breakfast sandwiches for our early morning checkout (they even had someone come early to help us take our bags to the street). It is a boutique hotel experience that is not to be missed. The sunset views here are 100% phenomenal!!!

This was our favorite day! We had a lovely driver and our tour guide at Delphi was wonderful. We learned so much about both modern and ancient Greece! The lunch at the olive grove was so delicious and a wonderful end to our day!

The private tour of the palace was a really great event. Our tour guide was well-informed, took time to answer the kids questions, kept them engaged, and helped us take lovely family photos!

We left our hotel around 5 PM and went to dinner at tavern near Sounio. The meal wasn't our favorite of the trip, but there aren't a lot of restaurant choices near Sounio. The cape and the Temple of Poseidon did not disappoint! We got there around 7:30 PM and had enough time to walk around and find a spot to watch the sunset.

We were picked up by the Santos transfer on time and had a nice trip to the port where we waited for our boat to arrive. The group on our boat was mostly couples and one other family with young children. The trip included 1 hour at the volcano crater (which is just enough time to walk to the top and back down), then we sailed to an area where we could swim to hot springs. After that, we sailed to a second area for swimming followed by a delicious dinner, then back around to the port near Oia to watch the sunset. Overall it was a lovely day!

We had a wonderful tour guide who met us at the Acropolis Metro and then walked us to the top of the Acropolis and then the Agora, and gave us great insight into the history. Our guide was wonderful , incredibly knowledgeable and kind. She knew that our family already knew a lot of the Greek mythology history, and so she gave us some insider tips on other things to see in the area. She could also tell when our kids were getting bored and fading, and helped us find them some ice cream to cool off between our stops.

The Koronekes Olive Mill is such a lovely experience! Our guide was really informative and we learned a lot about the olive oil process and the island of Crete. Also, the lunch at Bakaliko was so delicious. The servers were lovely, and they suggested some great dishes and wines for us.

This was a really nice day with Argyros Travel. Our driver Takis and guide Harry were great. We got to Oia for some pictures before the crowds, and then traveled down to Megalochori to see an older town and original cave house. Then we went to Akrotiri for a guided tour (it was very cool!!). After Akrotiri we did the Atlantis museum, then over to Black Beach for lunch at a restaurant Mario, which was wonderful and had a beautiful view. We learned a lot about Santorini's history, culture, and the tourism industry.

LOVED everything about the Villa Mary! The wonderful location away from the craziness of Positano, the amazing view from the plunge pool, delicious breakfast on your private balcony and the warmth of the hotel staff. Stay here!!

Loved the location and the breakfast! And, the staff was very friendly. The mattresses and the linens need an upgrade.

Actual hotel is lovely and kind of funky, but the overall building/elevator is a bit suspect.

Great location and lovely hotel. Room was quite small though.

You Know is a great tour company -- Ross in particular did an amazing job.

Amazing hike -- tour guide was very knowlegable. Think his name was Guiseppe?

Already wrote about it -- NOT a hidden bead -- totally overcrowded and not at all what was advertised.

Highlight by far was Ravello - glad the driver recommended to spend most of the time there.

Great family run business! Had a blast!

Definitely NOT enough time in Pompeii -- was pretty disappointed we could not stay and explore more. There are huge lines with tour groups from Cruise ships so you need to build in more time to accomodate for this. Would have wanted more time on our own to explore after tour ended.

A charming boutique hotel. It was well situated and quiet. The staff was accommodating and friendly if not always present.

This was the nicest hotel I have ever stayed at.

Amazing location, lovely staff, breakfast on the roof with acropolis view!!! No bells and whistles in the room but who needs those?

Good location, lovely staff, spacious rooms

Eleni held the attention of my kids so well and was so friendly. Now we have a souvenir in the hero my son created.

AMAZING/BEAUTIFUL. The valley was lovely and the butterflies so fun to look for/see.

Demetrius was amazing and so personable and knowledgeable. The trip was enjoyable even though it was so long (a feat in itself) and the tour was so fascinating. Our guide was patient and kind and flexible. Great restaurant stop as well!

A fun way to spend the evening. Show could have been 90 min instead of 120 I think. But delightful good natured and fun/funny. Kids really enjoyed.

Very good storytelling from our guide! Easy transport, flexible and kind. A great chance to learn about the past civilization on Santorini and current research efforts.

Absolutely great. Cool boat, great experience. Volcano hike was cool!

So cool! Nikos even stopped at an olive farm for us. We got a really good sense of Rhodes and Rhodes town from this tour! Highly recommend.

Our stay at Wilde Apartments Grassmarket was mostly pleasant, but we had an issue with the taxi driver dropping us off at the wrong place. It was a minor inconvenience, but worth mentioning.

Destiny Scotland - Hill Street Apartments was one of the best places we've ever stayed. The only hiccup was the lack of communication about the key code to enter the apartment, which caused a bit of a panic. However, once that was sorted out, our stay was perfect. The apartment itself was fantastic and made our stay in Edinburgh truly memorable.

The Kirkwall Hotel was an excellent choice. The staff was fantastic, and the accommodations were comfortable and met all our needs. The service was impeccable, making our stay there truly enjoyable.

The taxi service to our hotel was prompt, but the Edinburgh Old Town Tour was a bit underwhelming. Our guide, Christoph, was lovely but had a heavy accent that made it hard to understand him, especially with the Plexiglas barrier in the taxi. An open car might have made the experience much better. Despite this, he took us to Calton Hill, which we thoroughly enjoyed.

The Shetland Tour was a highlight. We had a fantastic guide who took us on a driving tour through some breathtaking scenery. It was truly an unforgettable experience, made even better by the knowledgeable and friendly guide. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Shetland Islands.

Nicholas, our guide for the Cairngorms tour, was absolutely wonderful. The tour was well-organized, and Nicola's knowledge and enthusiasm for the area made it an exceptional experience. I couldn't have asked for a better guide or a more beautiful setting.

This hotel was breathtaking. Being on the water with such a dramatic view was incredible. We enjoyed a fantastic dinner at a local restaurant recommended by Lucie, which featured amazing fresh seafood and a stunning sunset. The next day, even though it was rainy, the views were dramatic and beautiful.

Smaller hotel with a really historical feel. Fantastic staff who were always helpful finding restaurants, transportation, etc. We loved the location in the heart of the 5th Arrondissement, near the Pantheon.

I was really looking forward to going up to the top of the Eiffel Tower, but due to some crazy traffic (thanks to President Biden's visit), we missed our appointment. Despite not making it to the summit, we still enjoyed our time at the Eiffel Tower and took some great pictures.

Chambord Castle was one of the highlights of our trip. It was lovely to see and really stood out among the chateaus we visited.

The wine discovery tour in Vouvray was fantastic. We learned about biodynamic wines, which was fascinating. It was a great day overall.

The Rodin Museum was part of a perfect day. We got to see different aspects of France, and the museum itself was a wonderful experience. We really enjoyed it.

We had a private guide named Clementine who was outstanding. She brought the history of the Normandy invasions to life and adjusted the tour magnificently to our interests. By the end of the day, we had a comprehensive understanding of the event

This was such a unique and fantastic experience! The mechanized animals, including a giant elephant you can ride, were incredible. It felt like stepping into a Studio Ghibli movie, filled with imagination and creativity. Plus, the hotel was conveniently located, which made for an enjoyable evening.

The sidecar tour was an unexpected delight! It was a recommendation from Lucie, and my family absolutely loved it. It gave us a unique perspective of Paris, almost like we were pedestrians exploring the city. The kids, who are in college, found it especially helpful to understand the city's geography before we walked around the next day.

Great location, hot water took a little time to warm up though. They gave special treat for Bonvoy members which was nice

Wonderful hotel, friendly staff. Rooftop view is amazing, food was fabulous and spa was also wonderful

Very friendly helpful staff. Great AC in rooms for hot days. Rooftop pool was very nice

Gold museum was amazing experience. Our guide was so knowledgeable, we learned so much in each area.

Highlight of the trip! Learned so much, the view was incredible

We were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and quality of the rooms in this newly renovated hotel. Dinner and breakfast were also very good.

We've stayed at Four Seasons all over the world. This location maintains Four Seasons well-deserved reputation for excellent service, beautiful rooms and grounds, and delicious on-site dining.

It's a LONG journey to get here-- but when you're riding a camel off into the Sahara dunes and coming back to dinner and a fireside performance, it's all worth it!

While the rooms are 3 stars (clean, but relatively small), what really sets this property apart are its beautiful gardens and grounds and the views of the valley. Don't miss the chance to explore the mosque, hammam and bakery in the buildings next door .

This was the perfect activity for our first night in Marrakech. Dinner was absolutely delicious and our kids enjoyed the chance to talk with the young son of the family who prepared our meal.

This place was cool, but we could probably have skipped it in favor of more time exploring other parts of Marrakech. A little too 'instagrammy' for our tastes.

Great experience walking through the markets with multiple stops to try soup, snails, olives, bread, tagine and fresh juice.

We have admittedly high standards when it comes to our resort hotels. Unfortunately, despite what appeared to be their best efforts Cascade Wellness just didn't meet the mark. Our first apartment (#511) was very disappointing-- a not insignificant walk to the main dining areas/pools with a view of the roundabout, combined with worn/dirty furnishings, dirty linens and black mildew rampant in the shower areas. We were disappointed enough that for only the 2nd time in my life, we requested a room change. The second apartment (#1111) was an improvement in terms of cleanliness/pool access. Overall, however, this resort needs refurbishment. The carpets/couches/draperies in both apartments need to be deep cleaned to remove stains and the furniture is noticeably dented and scratched. In the three days we spent poolside, the pool bar by the 'sand' pool never opened (we were there in mid-June and the pool was in use by many people). Landscaping does not appear to be watered regularly and walkways between buildings were in need of repair. We only ate at the hotel once after being unimpressed with our lunch, preferring either to go out and order in via UberEats. The front desk, however, did try to be helpful, providing good restaurant recommendations and, after moving us, checking to see if the new apartment was an improvement. Bottom line, this is not a 5 star, or even a 4 star, resort.

Great location, well appointed, clean rooms (the port in the rooms is a nice touch).

Great location, beautiful ocean views with a balcony. Large rooms (our adjoining rooms had dressing room area(s) larger than many hotel rooms). Only stayed one night so can't speak to the pool and other services.

Sintra is a can't miss stop on your visit to Portugal and, at the suggestion of our driver, Andre, we combined our visit to Pena Palace with a visit to Quinta Da Regaleira and a quick lunch in the old town area-- which made for a perfect day trip from Lisbon.

Lovely private boat tour along with coast. Knowledgeable, pleasant guide and appreciated the mid-ride port sampling and that our son got to help drive the boat. Would have liked the option to jump in the water at some point, but recognize that was not part of the itinerary.
