Nandih was great with our boys, age 10 and 15. He is very knowledgeable and a true professional. Mark, Sydney, Australia Nandih, our fine tour guide, was fantastic! He arranged everything! He knew what to do when the car broke down, and which restaurants had clean food and water. Thank you Nandih for the perfect holiday!. Silvian N. Bucharest, Roumania Our guide Nandih was wonderful. He took all of our requests seriously. This is a trip we will remember! Liz H. Florida, USA From start to finish our tour was excellent. Nandih was a great guide.. Very knowledgeable, patient and kind. Beware of the long journeys when travelling around by vehicle, it takes a long time especially on the west James, London, UK A vacation of a lifetime. Our guide, Nandih made it absolutely terrific. He met us at the airport, and never left our side for 2 straight weeks. We felt totally safe and well cared for. He was extremely responsive to our every need, from food to laundry. When we decided to fly, instead of drive over more bumpy roads to our next destination, he immediately arranged for that to happen! We were amazed at his proficiency in English, even using and understanding idiomatic expressions. He asked us to correct his grammar, so he could learn the proper way to say things. Just superb!!! Dale & Jeff, Stan & Patty, Pennsylvania, USA I can’t speak highly enough of our guide, Nandih. He was outstanding, anticipating every query, super knowledgeable and great company. He ensured that every step was a success.. Roger H, Melbourne, Australia REFERENCES Available upon request
