She gave us history and understanding based on personal experience.She moved easily through the group sharing meals and conversation with all of us at different times. She encouraged everyone to get to know each other. She was great. "

"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."

"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.

"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."

"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."

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!!!"

"Andrew was a wonderful guide. Cheery, helpful, and always interested in the clients interests. One of the best!!"

"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."
