WHAT ELDERTREKKERS ARE SAYING

We know we offer incredible trips, but it's our travelers that have the final word on the quality of our tours. Here are just some comments that we've received...

TO: ElderTreks and all world travel lovers
From: December 2004 - Jan 2005 Vietnam tour

There are 15 people in our 21 day Vietnam tour - 13 Americans and 2 Canadians. All of us are very experienced world travelers.

We wanted to let the ElderTrek agency and our fellow world travelers know that our Vietnam guide Ms Thuy knowledge of the history, customs and social structure was unsurpassed. She shared her life with us and opened her heart and soul so that we felt the soul of Vietnam.

Roger Burrows, our tour leader's attention to any and all details of needs of our group was simply remarkable. We want you to know if you ever have an opportunity to travel with Ms Thuy and Roger Burrows, you will be in the hands of the best tour guides we have ever traveled with. The special treatments never stopped!

I LOVED the trip! Very helpful staff, outstanding food, even the weather was organized to perfection!
H. Andrie - Vietnam

I thought it was a fantastic trip. I especially enjoyed visiting all the hill tribes, Inle Lake and all there was to see in that area - the travel by longboats, the time on the Pandaw, observing life on the river and balloons over Bagan. I enjoyed every opportunity to visit and interact with people.
J. Cain - Burma

I really enjoyed the trip - 1st time on a tour for me. It was well organized, food staff, very good - loved the scenery and being outdoors and my heart was glad to be in Tibet.

Niraj was one of the best guides I have ever had, very knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble.

The trip was remarkable, unforgettable, fabulous. Excellent overall organization, good mix of exercise and leisure, kindness and helpfulness of guides.

Roger takes such good care of everyone in his group. I'd go to the ends of the world with him without a moments hesitation. In a rating out of 10, he gets 11 in my book.

I thought the trip was outstanding. I am very impressed with your travel organization and I would be interested in other trips with ElderTreks. China is very impressive on all accounts.

A good trip, well organized with outstanding staff and friendly group of travelers. Transylvania was much more beautiful than I expected and I particularly enjoyed the hikes and villages.

We thought the trip was wonderful - it exceeded all of our expectations! While we enjoyed virtually all aspects of the trip, the game drives in particular were fantastic. We also found it interesting to learn about the culture of Tanzania - this enhanced the overall experience greatly.
J. McGuire - Tanzania

Scott is the best leader we have had on our trips. The landscape was surreal and the tribes were colorful with music and dance being a prominent part of their lives.
C. Wright - Cultural West Africa

We enjoyed the active hikes, the remoteness of the countryside, the people and the local guides. The wranglers and cook on our trek, each picnic and most of all the energy and excitement that Florencia gave us all - she is contagious! Thank you all the staff, this adventure we will long remember.
M. Hvizdos - Hidden Treasures of South America

Hiking the Inca Trail was totally awesome! Very challenging but worth every minute. The scenery, the history truly impressed me. The cook was amazing and the porters were great. Manuel was truly a 10 throughout the tour, knowledgeable resourceful and well organized. I enjoyed all the day trips - the tour was perfect.
