TripADeal Reviews

Fantastic experience seeing these unique and beautiful cities in China. Visiting Tibet especially was a unique and breathtaking experience Traveling in a small group was definitely an advantage The standard of all hotels was excellent and the food on the trip was delicious in each city

Excellent trip. Planning and logistics were spot on and smooth in the transition. Accommodation and meals were above and beyond. Tour guide and bus driver were well versed in where we were going and knowledgeable in the planning. Tour guide made adjustments to the itinerary when needed to suit the weather conditions to allow a smooth flow of events and activities. We were not rushed or pushed at any stage along the way which allowed us to enjoy the tour immensely. As a group we all made firm friends with each other which made it easier along the way. Will definitely recommend "Trip A Deal" and the tour guide for any further trips that we may plan in the future. Thank you so much

Highlight was the Great Wall

Tour Guide Demetris was fantastic. Very patient given 34 people to cater for, all with different needs and expectations. Loved the whole trip. For us, everything was organised perfectly and we enjoyed everything. Demetris even arranged additional activities not noted on the itinerary for those interested. Demetris made everything simple supplying very detailed information at every part of the trip. Itinerary for us was great as it gave enough time in each place to check out the main highlights and get a feel for each place. Location of a couple of the hotels was definitely not ideal as they were not near any facilities. (Many people were not happy about this). My wife and I enjoyed the whole experience immensely but I feel that it wasn’t what some others on the tour were expecting. (I feel that some may not have looked at the advertised itinerary properly before booking, as everything on the itinerary was well covered, plus plenty of extras added by Demetris to enhance our experience).

Beijing and its history delivered excellently by guide. Hotels all excellent. Buses and drivers excellent. Inclusions excellent. Jade factory, silk factory, pearl factory and tea factory all fine. Sales pitch a bit over the top. Would have much preferred to see how things were made/produced and things being made rather than just finished product and hard sell.

Thoroughly enjoyed this trip. Great value for money. Guides were fantastic, accommodation was excellent & optional tours were good. I would highly recommend this trip.

Out highlights were many including the following, tasting many types of Japanese food through out the country & let’s not forget the beer as well, all great. Sightseeing including shrines, temples, Tori gates, the country side , Mt Fuji, boat rides , bullet train, Ninja village, Hiroshima. The tour guide has great & as well as the other travellers. Cheers 🍻

WELL PROGRAM TOUR. SOME CITIES NEED MORE TIME TO EXPLORE. EXCELLENT TOUR GUIDE AND SAFE BUS DRIVER. COACH NEED WI-FI.

I could not fault this holiday at all, the experience was amazing, definitely worth the bargain price paid. The hotels were clean and the food was brilliant. Everything flowed like clock work, the tour guides were knowledgeable and the vibe was high. Can highly recommend this trip. 5 stars all the way.

The tour covered a lot of territory in a short time covering the major attractions in China we hoped to see. That meant the need to have several travel days but it was all part of the experience. We thought the organisation of the tour was great with no hiccups. Guides were always where they were meant to be and were really helpful navigating the train stations and airports plus other security areas. The choice of activities were varied but we felt that there were too many shopping stops esp. in Shanghai. More time in the museum would have been nice to get a real grasp on Chinese history. The cruise ship was comfortable even though a bit dated. We liked the nightly shows and activities offered. Our one concern was that the cruise guide was a bit difficult to understand.All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Special mention to Merrick as our guide in Guilin. Excellent!

I had a goal.....to complete the 7th and probably 8th Wonder of the world, before a special birthday! Great Wall ✓ Terracotta Warriors✓ I was so impressed with the One World airline Cathay Pacific. The hotel were all 4 Star and impeccably clean. With breakfast included everyday. Water in room. Included activities and site seeing with tour guides were great. The add ones were all reasonably priced and worth it. With the 10 day Terracotta Warrior China tour.....it was full to the brim... sleep when you get home !!! Great coaches and safe drivers. And we all ended up as a new and beautiful family! I have now been on 19 different tours all over the world. This one was incredible and 💯 Terrific 👍 Sally Meadows

Worriers of China Tour has given me a total different view of China Thank you Trip a Deal team for giving us a memorable holiday our group was very easy to get-along, friendly, help each other . Tour guides were really great and knowledgeable easy to talk to , and approachable at any time , I have to mention Venesa from Beijing , she was really great never had any boring moment. My best moment was climbing the Great Wall in the rain unremarkable experience, beautiful surroundings.and the History. Enjoyed good food and garden and shopping. Only thing I would asking you to consider is given a one free day to recover , get very tired changing hotels , quick change over was very tiring ,late early coming to the hotels.And not enough time spent in the beautiful Gardens. Overall pretty good value for the money. I will recommend Trip aDeal Tours for family and friends. Sure we’ll keep an eye on another great Tour with Trip aDeal with near future.

I enjoyed my trip to China very much and felt the itinerary was reasonably well paced overall. There was one particularly late night followed by an early start the next morning, which was a little challenging, but I understand that part of the reason these tours can be offered at such an affordable price is the use of less popular flight schedules and travel arrangements. One thing I think would be helpful before departure is a clearer explanation of how these tours are priced and how the tipping system works. I know the daily tipping requirement is outlined, but it would be useful to explain that the tips are shared among the whole team behind the tour, including drivers and support staff, not just the tour guide. It would also be interesting for travellers to understand how the tours are subsidised through partnerships with airlines, hotels, businesses and attractions, which helps keep the upfront cost so low. I participated in all of the optional tours and found them to be excellent value. However, it would be useful to provide more information beforehand about how these work. If you choose not to participate, you may be dropped off separately and need to make your own arrangements until the group reconvenes. That's perfectly manageable, but it would be good for travellers to know in advance so they can plan accordingly. My only real criticism relates to our guide in Xi'an, Maria. She was a lovely, friendly and hardworking guide, but at times her accent made her difficult to understand and some of the instructions were not always as clear as they could have been. This occasionally created confusion within the group. On the other hand, Nina, our guide in Beijing, was excellent. She was knowledgeable, organised, easy to understand and kept everything running smoothly. Likewise, JZ, who looked after us for the remainder of the tour after Xi'an, was outstanding. He was informative, approachable, had a great sense of humour and ensured everyone felt well looked after. Both guides made a significant contribution to the enjoyment of the trip. Overall, I had a very enjoyable experience. I've travelled with TripADeal several times now and have always found them to offer good value for money. I would certainly consider travelling with them again.

So well organized and our Guide was truly helpful and knowledgeable.

Our China trip was truly an unforgettable experience and exceptional value for money. At just $999 per person, including international flights, accommodation, and guided tours, this has to be one of the best travel deals available. From start to finish, everything was very well organised, allowing us to enjoy the journey without any stress. The itinerary was fantastic, covering many of China’s iconic attractions, cultural highlights, and modern landmarks. Every destination offered something unique, making the entire trip both exciting and memorable. A special thank you to Alice Ji (Beijing Tour Guide) and Kai (Shanghai Tour Guide). Both were outstanding throughout the trip. Their professionalism, knowledge, friendliness, and attention to detail greatly enhanced our experience. They were always approachable, happy to answer questions, and provided fascinating insights into China’s history, culture, and local traditions. Their passion and dedication helped make the tour both informative and enjoyable. The hotels exceeded our expectations. They were clean, modern, comfortable, and well-located, providing an excellent place to relax after a busy day of sightseeing. The coaches used throughout the tour were also spacious, clean, and extremely comfortable, making travel between destinations relaxing and enjoyable. The food, sightseeing, transportation, and overall organisation were excellent. We felt that every aspect of the tour delivered outstanding value, especially considering the remarkably affordable price. The tour provided the perfect balance of cultural experiences, famous landmarks, local experiences, shopping opportunities, and leisure time. We highly recommend this tour to anyone considering visiting China. It was a wonderful journey filled with amazing memories, beautiful scenery, rich cultural experiences, and exceptional service. Thank you to Alice Ji, Kai, and the entire team for making our trip so enjoyable and memorable. We are already looking forward to joining more tours with TripADeal in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a well-organised, affordable, and unforgettable travel experience.

Beautiful scenery, well organised tour guide.

Absolutely loved this tour. Both the Canadian and Alaskan legs of this tour was jam packed full of natures wilderness, animals and both native and colonial history. I highly recommend this tour for young and old.

Wonderful trip which was actually 3 tours in one package that went off seamlessly! There were so many OMG moments that it is impossible to pick one above all others but having it snow on us was special.

This was an excellent and detailed overview of the main show stopping attractions in China such as the Great Wall, Forbidden City and the panda house at Beijing Zoo.

The three tour guides were fantastic, knowledge was excellent and made our trip so much better learning from these three. Enjoyed the flow of the trip. It was our first trip a deal tour. I know it’s hard but would have enjoyed another hour or two on the Great Wall of China, this was the highlight for me and my wife. As two hours disappeared to quickly. Accommodation was mind blowing as we are not used to staying in 5 star, very clean and staff all friendly. The fast train was well worth the journey, the 7 hours gave a real view of China, whereas the plane flights you see nothing. The only negative aspect from my wife and I was the restrictions on our two daughters (15 & 17) attending the trip with us, I believe there was nowhere we went that they couldn’t have attended. But I have noticed that all the China trips are 18+, I’d love to know the reason behind this. Overall our first experience with you at trip a deal was extremely high, we look forward to planning our next adventure with you. Kind regards Darren

Value for money with all great highlights experienced.

Everything was great the guide in Canada the accommodation and the pace of the trip. The cruise was good.

We loved the whole trip , some of the days were a bit long but we did enjoy it Maybe the shopping was a bit much and it might be good to add a few more tourist sites instead of shopping Guides were all really great

Best of Japan was a fantastic trip and introduction to Japan. Our tour guide Edna could not have been a better guide, always going above and beyond. I appreciated her enthusiasm and great sense of humour throughout the whole trip. Always making sure we were able to get the most out of our day, and loved how she imparted her deep knowledge of history along the way and all the stories as she kept us entertained.

This trip was great from start to finish, We were met at the airport by our tour guide Blair, can not praise her enough, she was a fantastic guide who went out of her way to look after everyone, she was informative and answered any questions anyone had,The hotels were all clean and comfortable, rooms were small but that is to be expected in Japan, when we booked into a new hotel Blair would meet anyone that wanted in the lobby and take us to where shopping and resturants were, nothing was too much bother or her .The bus driver was also very polite and friendly and got us everywhere safetly, I am really looking forward to my 3rd tripadeal tour in March, and recommend these tours to anyone.

Excellent trip. Well organised

Best part was the small group of only 5. The transport and accommodation was first class. The guides were very knowledgeable and the drivers experienced. Overall, a ****** good trip. Highly recommended.

We had a great time on our Best of Japan trip experiencing the many sites along the way. Our guide Edna was exceptional continually adding local knowledge to the tour and working extremely hard to ensure we maximised our experiences. It was great how she helped us find special gifts and adjusted the itinerary (always consultively) to include additional sites where possible. I will be recommending TripADeal. To all of my friends Thanks Edna and TripADeal.

Loved the ease of it. All organised perfectly. Communication from your guide was excellent. There was lots of extra tours/trips offered that we were not aware of before. Every day we were offered an extra tour or activity at extra cost. This would have been good to have that information prior to travelling.

The Safari camp, staff and guides were excellent. We were totally satisfied with all aspects of the holiday. What was experienced exceeded our expectations.

Loved the organisational side that was quite seamless. We were accompanied to the train stations and airport departures and assisted all the way. Food choices and accommodation was very good. The guides were all very knowledgeable One thing that I found a bit difficult was during our Beijing visit the desk staff could not communicate even though the hotel is a large stopover for trip a deal ( based on the large busloads of trip a deal travellers coming and going over the time we were there.)

This holiday was fantastic. From the 5 star accommodation to the sights. While the walking tours were exhausting in the humidity and not for the physically challenged they were a great way to experience what each city had to offer, Highligjts include riding in rickshaws and Tuktuks riding down the river at night among lanterned boats. Ha Lon Bay and the secret cave. The Cu Chi tunnels not for the feint hearted and Angkor Wat. The elephant sanctuary was special and the fish cleaning our feet was special experience to my husband and I. There were so many experiences that I cannot mention them all. Thankyou to our tour directors who did everything they could to make our holiday so memorable thank you Tony, Loi, Lucky our pocket rocket Nini and especially Bora who was exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble and he went above all expectations to look after us and enhance our holiday. If I ever get back to Cambodia I would be asking especially for him. Thank you Tripadeal you have nailed it again. Airflight is still arduous. Nothing beats Qantas, but I will live with it to get the great holiday. Value for money without compromising.

We had the most amazing tour guide (Kat) she was a highlight, as well as exploring Hanoi and the mountains. Suggestions for improvement or consideration for the more elderly when staying at Pu Luong Bochandi retreat. The stairs to get accommodation and restaurant are intense even for the fitter people. And the junk boat could be missed or upgraded. other than those two it was amazing trip

Joe went above and beyond. An excellent guide. Meal at forbidden city excellent. The other dinner in being att night was only just as good was cold. Beijing hotel did not have a fridge. Dinner in Xi’an. Totally amazing. Chris brining guide whilst knowledgeable. Walked way to fast

We had an excellent holiday. Well organized, on average adequate hotels - some excellent. some tired. Tours guides were great, excepting Thai lady whilst helpful, her English accent was very difficult to understand. Itinerary was perfect but scarred by the Thai Cambodia border issue. This was not TripaDeal's fault however, it added 2 extra long days on the bus. Overall a great holiday, good people in a small group and we all felt looked after.

So many animals. Got to see them in the sanctuary's and in the wild. People are very warm and inviting. We travelled with Borneo Trails and Clay the host was probably the best Ive experienced- informative, organised and funny. Didn't really need too much extra cash as almost all meals were included. I wasn't sure if I wanted to go on this trip but so glad I did.

Very extensive programme in the three countries. The tour exceeded my expectations. For those interested in history, culture and experiencing the unbelievable scenery particularly of Georgia, this trip is highly recommended. A special note, Azerbaijan is the cleanest country that I have ever visited. A paper on the ground anywhere is a rarity.

So much to see and amazing adventures to be part of, the tour guides were spot on with their knowledge and making sure every person had the best time. I amazed myself that I climbed the Great wall, China is so diverse from the very old to the very new, I would certainly do it again, only one small suggestion would be that it would have been better for guests if they could have 2 nights in hotels instead of only the one night in three hotels its just a suggestion, overall AMAZING .. AMAZING... AMAZING... WILL GO AGAIN.

Ship was great personal wonderful paper work straight forward and easy to follow

Ale our tour leader was amazing and really made the trip. He was proactive prior to us beginning the trip and all through out it. He's send us recommended food choices for the regions and places of interest. He even, on his spare time, showed us around Venice which was above an beyond. Very much appreciated. Only suggestions would be an additional wine tasting in the Presecco Hills as there was too much time in the town afterwards. Also as a suggestion a cooking class in the town we stayed at outside Cortina. This could be an optional extra for dinner. There's an Australian that runs the local supermarket across the rd we asked about it and she said she knew someone that could do it.

The down time we had of afternoon was so good an just the realax days. An our guide was really good .

It was a well-planned itinerary covering most highlights. All 3 guides were excellent - Hoang Nam (North), Manh Tam (Central) and Nick (South). Nam had great foresight by setting up a Whats App group that was used and greatly appreciated by all. The following guides were tagged as appropriate in which made communications very easy. We had 17 is our group which was a perfect size for the itinerary. The 5-star accommodation was as described and the group in general all agreed our first accommodation "The Tonkin" in Hanoi was a highlight. The only downside was travel days as in general you lose that day so if possible, having earlier flights to maximize time in new destination (even to just explore on your own) would be great. We already have recommended this tour to others and will continue to do so. I'm currently looking at where our next adventure will take us and searching the trip a deal site.

I absolutely loved this tour- what an absolute treat to experience travelling through the Mongolian steppes and Gobi desert with a fabulous group of people- there were 9 of us. It is amazing how the drivers know the route as there were not many road signs. Definitely an adventure. Loved the scenery, rough terrain, hikes and variety of landscapes and temperatures. It was 35C some days and then it snowed, we were all so thrilled albeit a bit cold. The homestay and visit to the yak herding family was a great way to observe nomadic lifestyle- they were very hospitable, first time sniffing tobacco and drinking milk vodka and why not. Witnessing wild horses,eagles,vultures,ibex,wild ram, gazelles, camels and goats running to the water source was awesome . This is one of my best trips and Mongolia is forever etched in my memory.

I loved the animal adventures, especially the river cruises. The guide Brenden and driver Anchoo were both excellent and knew their jobs well. I had a wonderful time with a great bunch of other travellers. The hotels and food were all good, and all the extra activities were well designed and received by all parties. Thank you for organising a wonderful holiday. Alison Caddy.

Thoroughly enjoyed the package to Johannesburg and Cape town. The flight to Johannesburg was tiring, flying from Sydney, Perth then to Johannesburg. Unfortunately, also the flight entertainment on South Africa Airline was non existent as without personal head phones or a lap top there was no way one could access the movie on board. Accidentally, no headphone were handed out to any passengers. Kruger National Park was awesome although it would have been more beneficial if the safari drivers kept in touch with each other as we were split into two groups and we did not get to see the Big Five which the other group were fortunate enough to witness, namely the leopards and lions. Our tour to Cape Town was amazing, taking all the history and breathtaking views of Cape Town and its surrounds. I would like to commend our tour guide, Andre Steenkamp who is a real gentleman, genuine , kind and caring and always extremely approachable. It is obvious Andre is very passionate about his homeland with interesting facts and history, making it all the more interesting for visitors. It is very obvious that he takes great pride in his work . Andre is a valuable asset to your organization and I will recommend this trip to all my friends and relatives.

I loved everything about my holiday, our tour guide Tracy was fantastic, so knowledgeable and helpful to everybody. Showing us many great sites and her information was priceless . Then off to Shanghai and was met by Jojo and again another great tour guide, made our trip special everyday

A delightful holiday with trip a deal the rich history that the country has it was awe inspiring, the Great Wall and Terracotta soldiers were a highlight along with the forbidden city and many more historical landmarks, all the tour guides were amazing sharing their knowledge of cultural attractions and making out trip an enjoyable experience Give it a go you won’t regret it

Loved how the tour guides Tracy & JoJo made the whole trip easy, flexible & relaxed! We absolutely loved our trip and were in awe of what we experienced for the price & duration of our holiday ❤️ Communication with TripaDeal from the moment we booked to the end was brilliant, nothing was left to chance & it was very reassuring as this was our first time with them but will definitely not be our last! Just go! You will not be disappointed but you will regret not taking this opportunity & experiencing the history of beautiful Beijing & the incredible city of Shanghai.

The friendly people in all Stan’s made me feel safe always & the cities were so clean & beautiful. The tomatoes were amazing as was all the food especially at the provided dinners which were great fun. Maybe a change of route so we only did the mountains in tajikstan once but not complaining. All guides were great as were the drivers.

I loved all the beautiful scenery, history, culture and food. The hotels were fabulous. The guides were wonderful.

Loved the cruise. Our tour guide on the Turkey leg started drinking alcoholat 11 in the morning and didn’t stop all day, quite often we had to wait for him to start our day. He was very knowledgeable and probably talked for too long and we always seem to be running overtime at every place we stopped at most hotels were not anywhere near the town Centre. One particular hotel in Turkey was in a district that was boarded up graffiti everywhere and we couldn’t walk outside the front door. quite a lot of the hotels were substandard and their breakfast didn’t cater for westerners. most of the coaches were old. our tour guide in Egypt was fantastic. One of the best I’ve ever had.

Packed full of places and beautiful scenery to see you certainly get your money‘s worth accommodation and guides were wonderful couldn’t fault loved it all. Great trip.

Air travel in cattle class not so good and lack of opportunity to upgrade for extra leg room Guides excellent, great knowledge of the culture and attractions. The additional excursions were excellent with exception to the tea house which was mainly a sales pitch and the Kung Fu show which was very good but the no allocation of seats and being caught up in a mad scramble to get a seat soured the whole program.. the cliff walk was absolutely amazing. All local attractions spectacular Accommodation excellent, especially the Marriot in Shanghai.

Flights where very good tour was great but need less shopping and more sites seeing. Tour leaders Jessica and Rose were excellent and helpful. Overall it was a great experience very happy.

It was a wonderful trip seeing all the important parts of Chinese life including cultural, historical, industrial, agricultural and social perspectives. We liked the diversity of the itinerary and the weather was favourable for our visit. The pacing of the days and long bus trips were at times difficult to manage for us being older and with diabetes. Overall it was a memorable trip.

Me and my family had a wonderfull holiday in China. We enjoyed to all places that we went to and Thank you to our 3 tour guides Jojo at Beijing, Rocky at Xi’an and Raymond at Wuxi, Suzhou, Hangzhou and Shanghai. They were so organised and supportive throughout the journey. Our family group also wonderfull. This trip is highly recommended. 12 days Warriors in Terracotta. 10 nights 11 days plus day for the flight. Thank you to all the teams of Trip a deal. Please don’t forget to add my Qantas points. Thank you.

The tour guides were friendly and helpful and all the places we went to was so much fun. We got plenty of free time and also fit a lot into a short ten days. Loved the group and the country so much and plan to come back

We had a wonderful time with our new friends exploring all of the amazing places we visited especially Luxor hot air ballooning and cruising the Nile River was great . All the accommodations were amazing but the hotel resort at Hurghada was really fantastic. Our guide Adham went out of his way to make sure we had the best experience possible and the drivers were very friendly and extremely competent.

Both our guides Jessica(Beijing) and Rose(Shanghai) were quite knowledgeable and very helpful as well. Flying by Juneyao airlines first time and it was a good experience and helpful crew as well. Hotels were very good too. There were quite few places that we went to for pearls, Jade,medicines,silk where quite a bit of time was spent and personally I think it we were able to spend going to tourist places instead would be better. It would also be better to include some pointers for those who change in Shanghai for connecting flight to Beijing how to go about and how to recheck id's for bags since the connecting flight was just 1 hour and everything had to be rushed.

Mekong Delta

It was a very well organised tour our group leader Arch was excellent Good hotels he bus driver and his assistant were great too

Great way to see China, learned a lot about their history and the culture. Our tour guides were excellent. Thank you Nina, Marry, Anna and Charlie. All and all it was a wonderful trip and good value for money. I was pleasantly surprised. Very Happy with the whole trip.

Loved the Breakfasts. Enjoyed the multiple hotel stay in Westlake, Hanoi,_gym, pool, kitchen and washing machine. Hotel staff were very helpful. Guides were very good. Trang was exceptional. Cu Chi tunnels, Ba Na hills, Sapa and waterfalls walk and Halong bay were wonderful. Excursions were varied and interesting

Flights early evening better than night

Really love this trip, hope we can do it again.

The whole tour was awesome, Peru - Macha Picchu amazing, Iguaçu Falls wow. From an improvement perspective, a bit more downtime between the respective excursions would have been better, too much of a rush example, arrive by 4-5 pm and off the next day by 7.30 am Also, the tipping gets a bit complicated when going from one country to another - Peru was done well, the guide (Edward) coordinated the whole aspect extremely well - collected the tips and paid each person (drivers, hotel staff, and other support crew) in our presence, not that it mattered as evidence that he paid them in our presence. As for in Argentina and Brazil, it was a bit disjointed, Edward set a high standard as we expected the same from others guides

The whole trip is fun and enjoyable. The friendliness, helpfulness and efficiency of the tour guides are one of the highlights during my holiday.

Fantastic trip Excellent itinerary Guides were very good.

Wall and Warriors were the highlight.

The Great Wall was fantastic, real challenge for climbing in a scenic location to share the adventure with the rest of the tour group, all climbing to a view that we all remember forever.

The guides were incredibly informative and the main sightseeing places were phenomenal. For the extra optional tours, it would be good to have an alternate option for those who choose not to do them. Eg. rather than stay in your hotel, come on the bus as there is a park nearby or shops etc.

Loved all of it! Mellany, our tour guide was so thoughtful and caring, such a hard worker and always made sure we were all comfortable and catered for. Only thing I would recommend, to do more cultural tours in Manila rather than churches, but other than that, it was a lovely holiday.

Loved walking the Great Wall, seeing the Terracotta Warriors, the grand canal cruise - just to name a few. The trip covered so many highlights of China. Would have loved a bit more free time, but otherwise an amazing trip.

This was a great trip and definately well worth the money,there were only. Oh pls of things I think that could change to make improvements such as the add on at the end of the trip to Thursday and Horn Island, we could have done with a couple of hours free time on Thursday Island before transferring over to Horn Island as there was absoloutly nothing on there and nothing to do and we were ushered off to the hotel which was very old and run down . But overall the trip was great and Herritage tours was great ..

What we loved: The itinerary was exactly as stated. A Taste of Italy. We loved seeing all the cities we visited. Highlights Being Pisa, Florence and Chinque Terra. We liked most of the hotels with the last one out of Venice being a fabulous spot to rest after a great fortnight on the road. The extensive treed gardens and peacocks 🦚 were very relaxing. The beds were great and the plumbing worked. Another stand out and infact the STAR of the journey was our bus driver Nilda. She is one very skilled driver with a kind and caring nature. A rockstar driver. A lowlight of our tour was the audio guides provided by our Tour Leader. They were subpar and unless the person speaking into them held the microphone right up to their mouths, you couldn’t make out what they were saying. It’s already hard to understand Italian speakers, but these devices made it much harder. I’ve had experience of really good audio equipment on other tours. These ones were rubbish. our tour leader didn’t give us any history of Italy either. His leading pretty much consisted of showing us where the town centre was and where we would meet to catch the bus back. He took lots of photos (not so much of the group) and seemed to be enjoying “his holiday”. When people became ill on the bus he stepped up and looked after them properly though arranging medical care. I was pleasantly surprised about our fellow travellers. It was an homogeneous group of experienced, thoughtful and patient travellers. The weather played a part also. Some days were a little hot and that made the going tough for the older travellers. The Tour leader could have helped a bit here, by cutting some visits a bit short to get us back on the air conditioned bus. Overall I would recommend this tour to anyone who has not been to Italy before. We went in the last two weeks of May and it was already getting hot. I came home with a tan. One word of warning. Be very mindful of pickpockets. they are in all the big cities in Italy and work in packs. Especially on Rome Metro. I’d put some warnings in your itinerary about men in particular leaving their wallets in their back pockets. The pickpockets are young girls and they work in packs surrounding you. Men in particular are vulnerable here.

Excellent tour guide who gave extra optional activities Excellent bus driver who drove safely and was very helpful for carsickness

Everything was amazing. From the airport collection, the beautiful necklace we received, meeting our wonderful guide Clay, it was just perfect. Clay was super knowledgeable, funny, English was perfect, and told us everything we needed when we needed it. Not to much too soon. We saw so many amazing animals, the boat rides, bus trips were all fantastic. We chose to do the added extra to the rural community which was one of the highlights. It's a real shame that more people didn't go. I think that if it was better advertised maybe more people would go. Or even if that was a little cheaper it may be better and more people would take up the option which would ultimately be great for the community.

We didn't know what to expect. From the moment we got off the plane to our hotel we were blown away. Our only gripe was we were not on a direct flight. All the accomodation was fantastic. Our tour guide :V: went above and beyond. He was happy, funny and very informative. Also the bus driver was a great driver and very polite. Can't speak highly enough of them. We celebrated our 36th wedding anniversary while on trip. This is definately one anniversary we will not forget . Thanks to V., our tour guide. Will recommend to our friends. Can't wait to do another Trip A Deal. Thank you for a wonderful time.

Our Shanghai tour guide, Faye, demonstrated exceptional expertise regarding China, coupled with a delightful sense of humor and a consistently friendly, helpful, and professional approach. The highlights of the tour encompassed visits to the Great Wall of China, including an opportunity to ascend it, the Terracotta Warriors Museum, the Forbidden City, and an evening cruise on the Grand Canal River was a sight to be seen. While flight scheduling could benefit from optimization, the overall experience was highly commendable.

This was our first trip a deal holiday and boy did we enjoy it, the booking process was very easy and simple , the communication was excellent, we were kept well informed from off , flights were all on time and simple , ALL our hotel rooms/stays were excellent with unbelievable breakfast included, all of the tour guides were fantastic, very knowledgeable and spoke good English, transfers between hotels and tours were on comfortable buses with good air conditioning all included extra bottled water , we also pre booked several extra tours for our free days , they were all well worth doing , all the extra activities usually include meals which were all in very nice restaurants, overall we found our first Trip a deal holiday excellent value and enjoyed every single day , we look forward to booking our next one 😀

The Great Wall of China along with the Terracota Warriors were a big highlght but the trip was just brilliant form start to finish! All guides were amazing but Selena was exceptional!

We loved Tiananmen Square, The Forbidden City, The Imperial Gardens, the Summer Palace, the rickshaw ride, the Great Wall, the Terracotta Warriors, Xian, Wuxi, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Shanghai - there was so much to see and do and we thoroughly enjoyed it all. Our guides at each of the three cities - Beijing, Xian, and Shanghai were excellent and very informative about how beautiful China was and how well they do everything. We could see this for ourselves - the cities were very clean, we felt very safe at all times and we absolutely had the best time.

The 2-day Canadian Rockies and seeing the breathtaking views in Canada. A friend recommended that if we ever do this, make sure to pick the Gold Leaf service and he quite right!

The trip was very interesting,we saw lots of different Temples, Mt Fuji andhe arnt about Japans History. Ben our guirde was very easy to understand. The driver was very helpful and his driving was very safe .

The Entabeni Safari was excellent, the rangers were very informative, we got to see all the animals up close and personal. The staff couldn't do enough for us. Big thanks to Matthew, Sammie & Daisy and all staff for making this holiday one we will never forget. The Victoria Falls were amazing, would recommend the Helicopter flight to see it from above as well.

The Balkans countries are fantastic, the people are amazing, very rich in history and culture, the old towns / palaces / castles / national park / caves are wonderful. We built camaraderie with our fellow Aussie travelers (Yellow Team), got to know a bit about each other, had laughs, friendly bantering and fun. Great bunch to travelled with. We also have an amazing, very efficient, organised, very helpful, funny and knowledgeable guide, Zeljko Mihic (a.k.a. Jake).

India - cultural experience loved the Taj, Sri Lanka - green & lush. Elephants were magic. Maldives - perfect finish

Every place was excellent, can't seperate out anything

Very Organised and very informative, both tour guides Robert and Michelle excellent 😊

Overall the trip was excellent. The accommodation was good. All accommodation was quiet and comfortable although a couple of the hotels didn’t have a mini fridge in the room which was needed by a couple of people to keep eye drops and other medicines cool. Most accommodation had a swimming pool except Strawberry Farm in the Cameron Highlands where it was too cool to need one. Buffet breakfasts were excellent in all accommodation. Transport was brilliant and always exactly on time and very comfortable. The only exception to comfort was the jeeps up to Mossy Forest and tea plantations but this is to be expected and the drive although challenging for those with poor mobility was fun. The drivers throughout were very good and I always felt safe. There were also appropriate comfort stops. We saw almost everything that was mentioned on the itinerary except for a couple of places that were closed. The guide Gerald was very helpful and while we were on the tour he did every thing he could to help organise taxis and point us in the direction we wanted to go. An appropriate amount of time was allocated for each stop with the exception of the tea plantation tour. The tour by the plantation guide was cursory and rushed. The highlight was the last four days at Rebak Island. The resort is fabulous, The boat ride to the resort from Langkawi was fun, the food excellent, happy hours stretches for more than an hour and the pool is wonderful. The only drawback is that there isn’t any snorkelling from the resort beach. Everyone we met was welcoming and helpful and it was very good value for money. I am sure there were people on the tour to find fault but as far as value for money goes I thought it was very good. Our group had various mobility and health issues but we were in a group of fifteen other travellers who were patient and helpful. We had a tiring but wonderful time.

Well organised and everything as advertised. I varied itinerary that covered a lot of China. The guides were knowledgeable, patient and spoke excellent English. Would recommend this trip.

Absolutely thrilled with the Incredible China Tour. We went with no expectations drawn by the price to see a country that was not really on our bucket list. What a pleasant surprise; loved China and every detail from start to finish provided by Trip A Deal in the tour offering was way above our expectations. The hotels were great with spacious rooms, good quality, and good amentities. The tour inclusions were interesting and well planned. The tour options were fabulous. And the tour guides informative, interesting, and fun. Huge shout out to Henry who in particular does an amazing job of keeping us on track and to our fellow travellers who were a pleasure to travel with 💛

We loved everything we got to see and do while we were in China.

Bedding should be double bed for couples not singles

All good. Amazing scenery. Well organised tour.

The accommodation and guide at each city visited were amazing and truly made the trip that extra special.

Really enjoyed this holiday. South Korea is a really beautiful country to visit, loved the culutre, food, scenery and the locals were very respectful to tourists. The tour was well organised and not rushed, the hotels were excellent and the tour guide was very informative and friendly. Will recommend Tripadeal to my family and friends.

Every thing was great but especially the river safaris 😊
