"Another wonderful trip organised by the team at Audley Travel. This time we arranged a holiday to South Africa. Robyn Hutchons was our advisor and her personal experience and knowledge was invaluable in planning the holiday. The local ground agents in South Africa were extremely helpful in resolving some car hire problems. All in all, I have no hesitation in recommending Audley and we will certainly be using them again for our holidays."

"We returned recently from our trip to Egypt set up by Chris at Travelous and it could not have been better; exceeded our high expectations. It was a private tour for four of us that Chris set up. The itinerary was perfect, seeing all that mattered the most, including local flavor, yet still allowed time to relax at the luxurious hotels he chose. The views at each were stunning. The guides were exceptionally knowledgeable and super friendly. We felt safe at all times. It was one of our most favorite trips."
