  Cheok was an excellent guide. He kept us informed, and he was always in good humour. He gave us lots of information about local customs and history. I thouroughly enjoyed the time I spent with him on our trip, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him as a guide!

  This was our 2nd G-adventures tour (Vietnam last year) and we had an excellent trip again. Our CEO was a young Cambodian woman who did a fabulous job of looking after all the trip details for a diverse group (aged mid-20's to early 60's). The itinerary covered a considerable number of sights and activities, with Laos being our favorite.

  For someone wanting to visit the area for the first time and travelling solo, it was a very good introduction. The itinerary covered the majority of the key sites/cities to visit for the limited time available. Accommodation was mixed as expected; some in our group found the level of guest house accommodation unacceptable because of the lack of 'luxuries' such as in room safes. However they were clean, welcoming and accommodating. Beds were firm but very comfortable (my preference), there was hot water, clean linens and usually breakfast. I grew up in a third world country; which is why I had no problem with the level of accommodation, or the standards of hygiene that most found a little unnerving. Our CEO was very good, and being local, was a real asset when in small villages where language is a barrier. Our local guides were great; presenting their area with compassion and knowledge, especially Peng (Luang Prabang to Vang Vieng), though he does need to practice his english with native speakers! Having said that, he was able to joke with the group and was willing to take all language corrections gracefully. The two points that I would make are: 1. Break up some of the longer bus trips us. There were too many long days sat in a bus. Perhaps an overnight sleeper on some routes to get more out of the days in situ. 2. Not enough time in Cambodia. While Phnom Penh is important, I felt I would have got more out of interacting with the smaller towns/ village/countryside folk.

  Went on this tour in January. Couldnt fault the itinery or accommodation. Had the worst holiday of my life due to a verbal assault by the CEO Jack who left me in tears. Still waiting on an apology............looks like I will be waiting. Would not recommend this kind of bullying to my worst enemy.
