An amazing trip to a stunning country - Uzbekistan.

We had a wonderful time seeing sites across a wide expanse of country and the transport for these was comfortable with friendly and competent drivers. Our tour guide, Bek, was patient, knowledgeable and friendly. Uzbekistan is full of colour and we were able to experience that and to understand the history and the events that brought the country to where it is. The buildings themselves were as stunning as the photos show and the small group enabled us to make the most of a wonderful experience. Wild Frontiers were prompt and clear with instructions and responses leading up to the trip engendering confidence in the process. I thoroughly recommend this company to anyone wanting to travel with ease and trust.

Do it!

The description of the trip to Uzbekistan was very helpful and honest. We had a wonderful experience with our guide Nilufar. She was knowledgeable, organised, kind and funny. We had a group of 11 which worked very well for us socially and we had a lot of fun. Uzbekistan itself was welcoming, memorable, beautiful and thought provoking. My experience of the culture, history and people that we met along the way is something that will live with me and make me smile long into the future.

We did an individual Georgia trip with an amazing guide Tamar who showed us various parts of this fabulous country from the high Caucas mountains to Tbilisi as well as various religous and historical sites. We greatly enjoyed all aspects of the trip, loved the local food and really appreciated the trip program that fitted our needs perfectly. A huge thank you!

"Sri Lanka: Hidden Treasures of the Sacred Island” with Wild Frontiers

"Sri Lanka: Hidden Treasures of the Sacred Island” with Wild Frontiers

Sri Lanka offers many exceptional sites of cultural, historical, and religious interest, as well as fascinating landscape, flora and fauna.

This active, engaging tour provided a comprehensive Sri Lankan experience accompanied by a very knowledgeable and accommodating leader, Dammika, his helpful assistant, and a safe driver.

We visited amazing temples and fortresses, saw ancient ruins and stupas, explored rice fields and tea plantations, visited a village of drum-makers, and more. Every day we enjoyed local food -- several times in private homes -- sometimes with a cooking lesson.

Some challenging nature hikes and safaris, added to the variety of activities on this tour.
Transportation was mostly by bus, but we had an opportunity to bike and to take local tuk-tuks.

The highlights for me were: meeting and spending time with one of the oldest tribes in the world, the Vedda people, learning about and seeing ancient irrigation engineering, and seeing a sloth bear and water monitor lizard up close.

I highly recommend this tour with Wild Frontiers, Unforgettable!

Beyond wonderful!

This truly was a trip of a lifetime (so good I need to do more!). A fabulous and imaginative itinerary exposed us to amazing variety and diversity of landscape, animals and people – from bustling town to the fabulous crater and the sweeping plains. We ticked off the big 5 and saw a huge variety of beautiful animals and birds – many up close and personal! Visits to local tribes, a coffee plantation and Africa’s largest art gallery added yet more value to the experience.
The whole trip was perfectly paced – ‘organised with wiggle room’. We never felt rushed and equally never bored. Highly knowledgeable guides, fabulous accommodations, wonderful food, great service – all in excellent company (the perfect group size).
Tanzania truly is a wonderful country. Wild Frontiers did it, and us, extremely proud.

Tanzania: Safari, Serengeti & Maasai Heartlands.

Our Tanzania trip was an experience that far exceeded any expectations.The sheer scale of the landscape and numbers and variety of wildlife on the ground, on the water and in the air was incredible. It was our first time seeing Cheetahs up close in the wild and a large pride of lions giving a display of their interactions with each other. This was interspersed with local cultural visits such as the Hadzabe tribe and Masai which were truly exceptional. All these experiences and our stress free enjoyment were made possible by the knowledge and planning of Wild Frontiers. The local guides were simply brilliant in every aspect. Meeting new friends during the trip was a real pleasure and an added bonus. We cant recommend Wild Frontiers enough.

Very well planned small group trip. Every day was filled with interesting and unusual activities from ancient sites to desert experiences. There were opportunities for hiking and never felt rushed
Accommodation was comfortable and varied.
We had the same (local) guide and driver all trip.

Highlights of Ancient Egypt

Just had a wonderful trip to Egypt. Everything was beautifully organised and the hotels were excellent. I feel we saw all the wonders previously experienced only on TV or in books in just 8 days. The tombs, temples and local sights were so interesting, made all the more so by our enthusiastic and knowledgeable Egyptologist guide. He was also fun and helpful. Our group was small and my fellow travellers very nice and easygoing.

Diverse, interesting and amazing!

Jim at Wild Frontiers put together an amazing and diverse custom/private trip for us to Singapore, Malaysia and Borneo. The entire trip was five weeks. Every detail was taken care of from transfers/flights, accommodations, activities, experiences along with recommendations for meals and free time. We couldn’t be more satisfied. Jim took the time to work with us to make sure our itinerary met our goals and desires.

Superb Trip

I thoroughly enjoyed our small group tour to Uzbekistan - something I have dreamed about. Starting with our superb highly knowledgeable and approachable guide, a well balanced program of cultural experiences, historical sites and culinary feasts, this trip was exceptional - I didn't want it to end. We also had ample time to explore ourselves and discover the magic of the silk road Wild Frontiers provides excellent customer service which is an additional benefit. ( suggest arriving a day or 2 prior to explore Tashkent - especially the underground and get acclimated)

Unbelievable journey to Uzbekistan

Being able to experience Uzbekistan with a small group and a local, knowledgeable guide made the trip even more special. The Wild Frontiers trip was one of the best trips I've ever taken, and I've been to 51 countries. I refer it to the Five M's....Mosques, Madrassas, Markets, Museums and Meals!

Tailor made perfection

From Jen and Kathy
Our South India tailor-made, solo journey with our own driver, and guides when needed, put together with the help of Jess from WF, was a perfect combination. The itinerary was busy and interesting with a great mix of on-the-go exploring and down time.Our guides were experienced and knowledgeable; our driver amazing and reassuring; and our accommodation generally ritzy and comfortable.
The highlights were many: from the splendor of ancient temples in Tamil Nadu, tigers and elephants in Nagerhole National Park, cruising the balmy backwaters of Kerala, to walking in the well trodden footsteps of long-age traders from distant lands in ancient Kochi.

The trip with Wild Frontiers Taj

The trip with Wild Frontiers Taj, Temples and Tigers on 8 March was fabulous . The Taj Mahal was as magical as ever but the highlights of the trip were seeing four tigers a mother and three cubs as largess her, a black bear and her cub in Rathambore Reserve and being in Jaipur for the Holi festival . We were very lucky to see the tigers as they had a kill and were busy sharing it. We joined in the Holi celebrations and got covered in coloured talcum powder. We saw several palaces and forts and stayed in some heritage hotels as well as visiting two villages. Out guide Bhopal was very knowledgeable as were the local guides and he made the trip exceptional. We saw the real India . It was well worth the trip and heartily recommend it

Wild Frontiers tour of Laos and Cambodia

Had a great time on a recent "Heart of Indochina" Wild Frontiers tour. James, the tour leader, knows both countries so well and he worked brilliantly with the local guides to ensure we had the best experience. We ate great food and stayed in very good hotels but also had a chance to meet people and gain an insight into their way of life. We saw amazing temples, palaces and waterfalls and spent time on the mighty Mekong. A wonderful introduction to these two countries.

Amazing Rajasthan

Jess organised an amazing trip for us in Rajasthan. Every detail was taken care of and everything worked like clockwork. Our driver for the entire trip was a delight and made us feel incredibly safe. Jess organised some quieter locations along the route which were amazing. Especially Sharpuragh Bagh which was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommend Wild Frontiers and especially Jess.

South India in 3 weeks

We did the South Indian Odyssey trip in Feb/March 25. What a fantastic experience, from Chennai to Cochin via Mahabalipuram, Pondicherry, Kumbakonam, Madurai, overnight train to Mysore, Safaris at Kabini and finally through Kerala ending with 2 nights on a backwater cruise, it packed a huge amount into 19 days. Our Tour Leader Dileesh was amazing and the driver Ranjith went above and beyond to help us enjoy a wonderful experience. WF are the most innovative and organised of companies, every trip with WF (this is our 6th) has been wonderful. Don't look anywhere elso for India.
