A good quality and well planned holiday

We chose Wild Frontiers for our tour of Albania as they had additional interests in the itinerary as well as the UNESCO sites. We particularly liked having two walks and two boat trips. The itinerary was well planned with excellent hotels, all clean with modern bathrooms but a range of types from mountain Lodges, through local hotels to a very luxurious 5 star one night with views to die for. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic and his bringing to life of the time of communism was enlightening. The driver was charming and very safe! The group was a perfect size at 10 (originally 12 ).

Second Wild Frontiers trip…

This was our second Wild Frontiers trip - this time to Egypt. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The local guide was very good, knowledgeable and friendly. We especially like the opportunity to see a bit of local culture as well as 'the sights'. We extended our stay and WF arranged some extra trips and accommodation for us - we'd definitely go with Wild Frontiers again.

Exciting & so well organised

I must say how impressed I was with my first Wild Frontier trip - so well organised , so smooth with so many moving parts to put in place - such a hard working & caring guide there throughout . I have done corporate trips over the years but this was really impressive from up to date vehicles , great restaurant choices & a clever itinerary that covered a lot - exhilarating indeed !

Uzbekistan - Land of Silk Road Treasures

My first trip with Wild Frontiers and it was fantastic. Our guide Ildar was so knowledgeable and really made Uzbekistan come alive, explaining the history, customs and future hopes of the country. The trip went smoothly and was well organised. I couldn't fault it. Wonderful sites, medieval cities and interesting fast-paced modern cities. Good mix of desert, homestay in an oasis in the middle of the desert, friendly camels (!) good, comfortable hotels and great food. Group size of 12 was great and we all got on really well.

Uzbekistan with Wild Frontiers

Had an amazing trip around 4 cities on the Silk Road in Uzbekistan with a superb group of fellow travellers and a fantastic guide, Bek.

The pre-trip information was detailed and accurate and all aspects of the itinerary were tailored to meet the needs of the group on the day.

Wild Frontiers are a highly recommended tour company and I would have no hesitation in using them again.

Great trip to Albania.

I recently returned from a trip to Albania with Wild Frontiers. It was a great trip, the itinerary was well thought through, we had lots of different types of activities all of which were interesting and enjoyable, yet I never felt hurried or rushed. Our guide was good humoured, accommodating and knowledgeable. We had the same driver throughout the trip he was a careful driver and I always felt safe with him at the wheel. Our fellow travellers were lovely and we had a great deal of fun and laughter . I would be happy to recommend both Wild Frontiers and Albania.

Five star trip to Algeria

I have just returned from a trip to Algeria with Wild Frontiers, which was fabulous. Our guide was excellent and stayed with us throughout the trip. We really got to know the country and culture, something which Wild Frontiers do exceptionally well. I'm looking forward to travelling with Wild Frontiers again soon.

So much to see in Uzbekistan

Just returned from a WF Silk Roads tour of Uzbekistan and we really enjoyed it. The tour planners gave us all the right information and the itinery was well thought out. The guide was excellent and well informed, the accomodation and travel well planned and of course, the country and its treasures spell binding.

Uzbekistan

I visited Uzbekistan with Wild Frontiers and had an excellent trip.
We visited 4 different cities and learned something new about the history of the country every day. Our guide Alex was incredibly knowledgeable and very helpful.
Most meals were included and the food was very good. Our hotels were all centrally located and were very comfortable and clean.

Albania Encompassed - brilliant trip!

We were keen to visit Albania, but daunted by the idea of organising a trip which would include everything we wanted to see - mountains, archaeology and modern history, literally from one end of the country to the other. We’re so pleased that instead we opted for a Wild Frontiers tour, which took in everything on our list and so much more. Travelling in a small group (12), with an expert driver and a brilliant guide, we experienced, learnt and thoroughly enjoyed so much! Comfortable transport, stylish (and varied) hotel accommodation and fabulous food really enhanced the trip and our fellow travellers were a joy. We also greatly appreciate Wild Frontiers’ efforts to support responsible and sustainable tourism, working with reliable and like-minded local colleagues. Heartily recommend both the trip and the company and hope to travel with Wild Frontiers again.

Definitely recommend Wild Frontiers

My first trip with Wild Frontiers was amazing. I spent a week in Georgia travelling round with a great group of 12 and a friendly and extremely knowledgeable guide. Everything was well organised, food was fantastic (all included in the trip price) and accommodation was great. Will definitely travel with WF again and recommend them to others.

Wild Frontiers chooses its destinations, guides, and activities with great care. Its small groups and knowledgeable guides create in-depth experiences far beyond the capability of most organized tours. On my three Wild Frontiers trips, I have learned about history and culture, gotten out into nature, eaten well, rested comfortably, and had a wonderful time.

Tunisia Uncovered. I recently finished a Wild Frontiers…

I recently finished a Wild Frontiers tour of Tunisia. I saw and learned more than I ever imagined when I originally signed up to go. Other tour companies I’ve traveled with have all done a nice job of giving you the basics about what you are seeing. But the major difference I’ve found with Wild Frontiers is on their trips they always take the extra steps to ensure that you really gain a genuine understanding of the people and places you are visiting. I have traveled six times with them and have never been disappointed. I’m looking right now for my next trip with them!

Sri Lanka - a thoughtful itinerary

Wild Frontiers put together a thoughtful itinerary for us, which included hiking 7 stages of the Pekoe Trail, cultural visits to Hindu temples, Catholic churches and Buddhist stupas, ferries to the islands in Tamil country near Jaffna, train rides, food markets and cookery - finishing up at a luxury hotel on the beach near Galle. The wildlife was the highlight for us - seeing a leopard at dawn, a sloth bear rubbing his back against a tree and 120 different birds over our stay (3.5 weeks). The range of accommodation was excellent.

Uzbekistan

Fascinating country explored in a small group of 12 with an amazing guide, Nilufar. Details about life eg arranged marriages, divorce, education, and health care made the experience much richer. The homestay in the mountains was particularly relaxing and enjoyable with a walk, and having a local Takjic group encouraging everyone to dance to their music. Local people were so welcoming. Felt safe.

Unforgettable Trip in the Best Possible Way!

We had an absolutely amazing time in South East Asia. Wild Frontiers planned a 5 week trip that included Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. We had a rich agenda nearly every day filled with all of the "must sees" as well as deep cultural experiences with the local people. We cannot say enough how well we were taken care of by our guides, drivers and country managers as well as our travel agent back in the office. In addition, the hotels that were chosen were mainly boutique establishments that celebrated the local culture with design, decor, and food. Everyone was EXTREMELY accommodating. We could not recommend Wild Frontiers more highly if you want to get a true custom cultural experience while enjoying yourself at beautiful accommodations.

Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan - must be seen !

My second trip with Wild Frontiers was to Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan - "Cities of the Silk Road".
With Ildar as our group Leader and then a different guide for Turkmenistan we were in great hands the whole time with these kind and knowledgeable men.
We saw a great deal in the 2 week trip including Samarkand and all its impressive buildings, and Turkmenistan and its slightly long winded border crossing process, onto the very strange and empty of people Ashgabat and of course the Darvaza Gas Crater.
I cannot recommend this trip enough to anyone considering doing it. Since returning last week I have booked another trip for next year with Wild Frontiers.

Excellent way to experience Albania

Had a great walking tour of Southern Albania. Beautiful country and walking in the southern mountains amongst the wild flowers was unforgettable. Our guide was equally fabulous leading the way on the trails and ordering the most amazing meals in the towns and cities we visited. Don't miss the chance to see Butrint.
