testimonials from some of our travellers

"Thanks for putting together such a great tour of Cambodia for us. We had a truly amazing time and fell in love with the country and its people....The tour was so well planned, our guides were great and we came home having had a much deeper experience than you usually get as a tourist. Everything worked out well, the choice of hotels, restaurants and excursions."

Tracey Reid - Cambodia - August 2008

"Firstly this is to thank you for the really superb arrangements you made for our trip to China this month. Everything worked perfectly. We were met and escorted without flaw, we stayed in very interesting, comfortable and well located hotels, and had great meals. We really enjoyed the trip and learned a huge amount about your great country….You can be sure that we will be recommending Bamboo Travel to anyone that we meet who would like to visit China. It was such a perfect trip."

Hugh Burnett - China - November 2007

"I just wanted to say that we all had an absolutely fantastic trip to Laos and Angkor….thank you (and everyone else who was involved) for making our holiday one that we will never forget. It really was one of the best that I have had and everything went very smoothly. We have all become obsessed with Laos and I am sure that at least some of us will go back."

Alasdair McWhirter - Laos & Cambodia - January 2009

"Firstly I'd like to say that we both had a fantastic time and found the trip greatly enhanced by the services you provided. All three guides were there to meet us at the designated pick up points and were friendly, informative and flexible to our needs….I'd also like to comment on the excellently presented itinerary pack that you sent to us. The layout and attention to detail including the addition of photos specific to our trip gave us real confidence in the professionalism of your business and made us feel that everything was well prepared and organised. The luggage tags were a nice touch too! I appreciate all the work that went into it and your patient dealing with all our alterations and additions along the way."

Henry Drake - China - August 2007

"Just to let you know that we are back from a fantastic trip to Vietnam and that everything ran like clockwork. I will be more than happy to recommend Bamboo travel to anyone I can and your representatives were brilliant at every location."

Sue Cook - Vietnam - October 2007

"Thank you so much for organising our wonderful holiday to China. Having never met you in person we arrived in Xian a little nervous but we should not have worried. Our guide Lily was fantastic and very knowledgeable. The trips you advised exceeded our expectations….the same service continued in Guilin with another perfect guide Lee. The day trek to the Rice Terraces was hard work but I wouldn’t have missed it, simply fantastic a day to remember forever. Bamboo Travel did a first class job... we had a holiday of a lifetime."

Dawn Reynolds - China - August 2008

"What can I say - our feedback is totally positive on all aspects, before and during Cambodia. Our two guides were excellent; both Eak and Engly - very good English, excellent knowledge of Cambodian history and culture, their passion for their country and their care of us was first class. The school at Shinta Mani was an excellent example of assistance that is being given and we were please to be able to sponsor one of the students at the school. In all - wonderful."

Andy and Janet Beal - Cambodia - January 2009

"I wanted to drop you an email to say a big thank you. Our trip to Thailand went so smoothly, the hotel you booked in Bangkok was just perfect. Sukorn beach bungalows were wonderful and so were the people. I would certainly recommend your services to anyone, and would definitely use you again."

Melanie Morris - Thailand - December 2008

"I just wanted to let you know what a great time we had in Vietnam. The trip worked out perfectly - good accommodation, interesting guides, some fantastic sights, friendly people and delicious food. What more could one ask….Thank you for your help. We will definitely recommend you to friends who want to head out to the Far East."

Sarah Nield - Vietnam - June 2007

"Thank you very much for organising a splendid holiday for us. The high spot was the river cruise on the Pandaw which was very enjoyable. The boat was very comfortable; the food was good, the drinks free and the staff very attentive. All the hotels we stayed in were excellent... Everything worked very smoothly and efficiently."

Leslie and Norma Dickinson - Indochina - December 2007

"Overall, the trip was totally fantastic. The organisation was great - the guides were always there when we arrived, the hotel reservations were all fine, all entrances to sites were paid up, the vehicles were nice and we had absolutely no problem with tickets or anything of the sort….we would all like to thank you very much for organising an excellent holiday, and will be recommending your services to our friends. My personal view is that this is the best possible way to see China - sufficient assistance that you're not totally lost, but still with plenty of independence."

Lyndsey Gunn - China - October 2007

"Just wanted to say thanks for organising such a wonderful trip. It all went really smoothly, the guides were all excellent and really looked after us... we had a fab time and will definitely use your services again and will not think twice about recommending your company to friends!"

Alison Balmforth - Vietnam - August 2008

"A big, big thank you to you, Tim, and your representatives for organising the most wonderful trip to Myanmar. The four of us had the most amazing time from start to finish. The guides were informative and friendly; hotels first class and the tour itself very interesting taking in the key sites and more...nothing was too much trouble. Anyone considering a trip to Myanmar should go ...and with Bamboo Travel! You were brilliant!!!"
