Great trip!! Great leaders!! Well done Gianluca!!

Great trips.
Great guides

Took a trip to Russia with a special side trip to the area where our ancestors lived. It was a fantastic trip. Everything and everyone was just about perfect for the whole trip. I will not hesitate to travel with Wilderness Travel and would recommend them to anyone interested in a trip!

Excellent service, communication, trip research, planning and execution

We had an excellent experience as a multi-generational family of 10 traveling in South Africa. Our local guides were excellent, our safari in two bush camps provided great complementary experiences, and all the details worked out as advertised. We could not have asked fo rmore.

Perfectly planned and excellently executed. My first trip with Wilderness Travel and I was impressed every step of the way from sign-up, getting my questions answered, itinerary and guides.

Out tour guide Kate Wilkins was competent, knowledgeable and kind. Very good experience.

Tops! Our first trip with WT, all good!

It was a wonderful trip. Excellent guides and driver! Beautiful country.

A diverse cultural experience with a taste of 5 countries. Mostly easy hiking, but poles should be required and travellers should learn how to use them before they begin this trip.

I want to express my sincere disappointment and displeasure with our Wilderness Travel, trip "Magical Madagascar". Let me start by saying that my wife and I have travel extensively. We have been to Africa, South America, Indonesia, French Polynesia, and many other locations. Never have we encountered anything like Madagascar.

Madagascar is a country completely devoid of infrastructure. The roads we travelled in the north and south were horrifying. We were subjected to gut wrenching, bone jarring, reverberating rides, on roads that had potholes that could swallow entire vehicles.These rides ruined this vacation for not only for me and my wife , but also for everyone in our travel group. (Yes, we discussed this among ourselves, repeatedly) These are not conditions that develop quickly, but occur because of decades of neglect. The omission of such conditions prior to our purchase of your trip is unforgivable.

In the north, the ride to Ankarana took 4.5 hours (2.5 hours in itinerary). The ride to Berenty took 4 hours, and the ride to Andasibe took 5 hours (3 hours in itinerary). Because of the durations of these drives, every activity held on these days had to be modified and shortened. This deprived us of significant wildlife viewing time and opportunity. It also created a group of physically and mentally exhausted travelers who never had a minute to rest or relax upon arrival at any location.

Additionally, the trip was further complicated by the presence of and elderly couple who were not physically capable of participating in this type of travel. The older gentleman was 84, he was never asked by Wilderness Travel to present medical proof of his fitness to participate. He was unable to walk more than a kilometer without being physically exhausted. He fell three times during the trip and had to be evacuated from one of the hikes by vehicle. This created a problem for the trip leader who had to accompany the couple on every activity and occupy one of the groups guides for every hike. This action caused our entire group to be short changed on every wildlife hike. There were no options for longer hikes or photo oriented hikes, and nearly every hike was shorter than advertised.

Seven of the ten of us got some level of gastrointestinal upset. Four were unable to leave their rooms. The sanitary conditions are not safe.

Another unforeseen problem with the trip had to do with the Madagascar Airary. We arranged for you to exchange $200 each in advance of our arrival. We attempted to spend it at the airport gift shops in Antananarivo, but found that no shop would accept this Malagasy money. We then tried to exchange it back to US currency in both Madagascar and South Africa, and were informed that no one wants or will exchange their currency. We were stuck with $200 dollars worth of Airary. Again, Wilderness Travel gave us no insight or advice that the monetary system in Madagascar would be so unstable.

As you can see from my letter, our trip was anything but "Magical". I hope that moving forward you will stop promoting this adventure to unsuspecting victims. A travel company of your stature should be ashamed of misrepresenting a country that is slipping back into the stone ages as Magical. Shame on you! Shame one me, for being fooled by your lovely brochure.

This Cornwall trip was my third WT trip in the UK and all of them have been first rate. The guides are gems, full of good cheer, incredible local knowledge, and uncommon generosity.
Richard Bell designed this trip and has it planned to the finest detail. The schedule is wonderfully mixed, with cultural sessions blended in with the hiking. My wife especially appreciated the fact that we stayed 3-4 nights in each hotel. The coastal scenery is stunning.
Our other WT trips were equally well-planned, beautiful and comfortable. We are signed up for two more next year!

In August of 2019, we flew across the ocean to join up with Wilderness Travel for a bucket list trip - a photo safari in Tanzania - something I've wished for since I was a little girl. We have traveled with Wilderness Travel before and found their trips to be safe, fun, and engaging with professional, interesting guides along with comfortable accommodations and delicious food. Our Tanzania trip surpassed our previous experiences and expectations. As passionate wildlife photographers, we need certain elements for outstanding photography such as early morning light and the perfect location from which to photograph the animal. The guides understood our needs as if they had been to photography school themselves, and we brought home prize-worthy images and memories never to be forgotten. We loved it so much we have booked our reservations for 2021 to capture the spring migration in the Southern Serengeti. I couldn't recommend a better travel company.

Very well organized trips & groups are great. Everyone gets along. I look forward to a new group of friends with each trip. They are on time & friendly. Lots of fun. No loose details!

I’ve traveled 3 times with Wilderness Travel. All trips have been outstanding!

I’ve traveled with WT five times over the last 15 years. They are one of my favorite travel companies for small group active travel. Always outstanding guides, interesting routes, the best hotels and meals. I’m sure I will travel with them again!

wilderness Travel is an awesome experience. 1st class all around

My husband and I have traveled all over the world with Wilderness Travel. We have never been disappointed with their guides, planning, hotels, etc. They are a "top notch" company for adventure travel

We had a great time even though the total eclipse was obscured by clouds and the high seas prevented us from landing on Pitcairn island. The speakers, ship and service was very good and we had a wonderful time meeting our fellow travelers.

All of the off ship tours were extra & this was an expensive trip to begin with. Have been on other trips where only exceptional tours are extra. The ship itself & all the people on it were wonderful.
