Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude. Worth every rupee.

Hotels were a step below what I expected for the price. Crew were professional without being stiff about it.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. The lead was calm and knew when to slow the group down.

Thank you. We've taken the point about the transfer and are reviewing it.

Stockholm & the archipelago done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Simple food, well made, and enough of it. Solid operator.

Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either.
