"Exceptional experienced trip leader. One of the best"

"Abdul was extremely patient - always willing to explain one more time whatever information we needed to know - very kind, thoughtful and always up beat. His passion for archeology, pyramids, pharaohs, and tombs was contagious and inspiring. Very knowledgeable - wonderful sense of humor."

"Excellent guide! Broad interests, intelligent, caring, fantastic language skills, great people person!"

"Turin was excellent in his knowledge of the country, in looking after us, and in providing "surprises.""

"The tour was fantastic, in large measure because of the exceptional professional competence and friendliness of Ollie along with the excellent service of Stefan, our driver.  We will surely use ElderTreks for some future trips.  We hope tour director/guides on other trips are as great as Ollie."

"I want to thank you so much for making my trip to Kenya/Tanzania the best of my life. It was absolutely amazing!!!"

"Thuy was excellent - very informative about her country. She gave me a real insight into Vietnam."

"Ham is surely one of the very best guides I have ever had (I have traveled internationally on at least 15 trips catering to wildlife observation). He was knowledgeable (knows and names and even tells the sex) of hundreds of Ugandan birds, an expert sighter (could see a lion about a mile away!!), was always polite, had a great sense of humor, put up with 4 woman old enough to be his mother, ... I could go on and on. He was absolutely wonderful and made the trip one of the most memorable experiences of my life. "

"Damla is a world class guide with a superior knowledge of the ancient history of Asia Minor and modern day turkey. She should have a show on the History Channel."

"What made this trip unusual, even for experienced travelers, was the extraordinary personal charm, enthusiasm and thoughtfulness of Guiper and the kindness and knowledge of the local guide, Antonio, in Guatemala. We have traveled for many years and cannot remember any guide who had Guiper's ability to enliven each day with his wit and good humor and with an almost preternatural ability to see what each member of the group needed to make the day pleasurable and interesting."

"Kamel was a great tour leader. His knowledge of Tunisia's history was impessive, he has a great sense of humour, and he added special visits to his family which we all appreciated."

"This was a very active itinerary and Manka helped me through a couple challenging parts. I might still be trying to struggle my way down the Paklenica Gorge Trail were it not for her. She knows her history, and her English is very good. She is VERY personable and has a knack for knowing different personalities and how to communicate with them and get the best out of them while making sure they are getting the best experience she can provide. She was on top of every detail at all times and has an amazing memory. I absolutely love her."

"No doubt Sammy has the fluency skills and organizational skills along with knowledge of Ethiopian history to be athe skillful tour leader he is. His organizational skills were flawless!!! His ability to be mindful of safety and watchful of all his clients at ALL times was impressive. His interactions with his drivers was one of respect and commraderie. Sammy can be hard to follow when sharing details as he uses lots of words to convey his message. I was lucky to have Sammy as my guide and would not have wished for another."

"Christos was a joy, a warm personality, encouraging, did every thing in his power to make sure we each had a great experience, a culinary expert when ordering meals. You are fortunate to have him!"

"Jeff demonstrated a deep affection for his country. He was knowledgeable of the flora, fauna, history, culture and politics and gave us a wonderful overview of everything. He made sure we saw everything we were promised, but was flexible in giving us spontaneous experiences. He was kind, thoughtful and concerned about everyone's well-being. He also had a good perspective and sense of humor."

"Danny was an excellent trip leader. He generously shared his knowledge and personal experiences. He was always calm and upbeat even when things didn’t go quite as planned. A true professional but also a very kind sweet person."

"I have again enjoyed another Eldertreks trip and have more planned upcoming. I just wanted to let you know that in all my years of traveling--and with several different tour companies--I've never had such a good guide as Sumit Pruthi! My friend and I experienced a wonderful tour thanks to his excellent skills. Just wanted to let you know what a jewel you have!!!"

"Samir was the best: knowledgeable, organized, pleasant, non-flappable. "

"Knowledgeable, good sense of humor, good at working with people, just a few, mostly minor organizational glitches. We strongly recommend him!!"

"Joel was excellent...all the information he has, organized skills with people and the information book we got at the start...wished more companies would do that"

"Karl continuously went above and beyond everyone's expectations! He was informative, witty, never boring, helpful, kind and full of surprises! I would gladly travel with him again!!!"

"Dylan rose to the challenge. He treated us to local treats and knew how to get us to be first up Table Mountain once the weather cleared. He was a remarkable young man and we were very lucky to have him. He was very patient with the eldest people who couldnt seem to manage the walks and took them back to the bus and made sure they were comfortable. He knew his stuff."
