He offered endless reassurance, always with a smile."

"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."

What travelers are saying

"We had the most amazing 5-day trekking with our tourguide Henrry. He shared some stories on the way and was very knowledgeable. We felt like we lucked out with him! His colleague Joseph joined later and was fantastic as well. We always felt safe, even though sometimes we'd struggle because of the lack of oxygen. Would highly recommend going with this company!"
