A fantastic and successful trip to Southeast Asia

Neither the Icelandic volcano nor the civil unrest in Thailand could hamper our exciting tour to Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. The volcano showed its mercy in good time, so our group managed to get home, and the demonstrations in Bangkok did not affect in any way the trip and the time spent in exploring this cosmopolitan city. The undisputable highlight of the tour was the visit to the famous...

Mauricio

Tour: Iraqi Kurdistan
★★★★★
My recent trip in Iraq organized by Penguin was excellent from start to end. Both Penguin tour guide (Nessi) and the local guide (Fahad) managed all topics efficiently and facilitated an amazing experience for the group. Now I dream about visiting the Northern part of the country, too.


Peter

Tour: Socotra Island Adventures (Yemen)
★★★★★
Thanks for everything in terms of your work and help with this trip to Yemen. It was an amazing experience - one I would recommend to almost anyone. By the numbers of people who travelled to the island, it is only going to get more exposure. The local company was very good - so you can have no problems with them at all. I was really lucky though - there were only 2 of us on the trip - and it was a really nice experience. I will continue to work with Penguin in getting ideas for great places to travel.
