The local guides went out of their way to look after me and to show me the best of Laos. They made sure that everything went smoothly and seamlessly. The hotels I stayed at were very comfortable and dining options were varied and of good quality.

I would also like to praise the drivers I had on the trip. They negotiated often quite treacherous and poorly maintained roads very safely and responsibly.

A superb highly recommended adventure- of particular note were the fantastically experienced and thoughtful, conscientious guides (Mr Yo in particular) who were generous and hit the right level of personal touches and friendliness, allowing us to explore, making sure we had the best experience possible. The hotels were sumptous and central and provided a range of beautiful rooms which suited our vegan, but with luxury request. Thai folk are incredibly welcoming and friendly and all our guides really opened up the country to us, and we left with a clear understanding of Thailand's heritage, and beautiful memories. The trip was well paced and varied- we moved around a lot and made the most of our time- packing a lot in!

All perfect timings and structure- great swap for the sadly flooded hotel.
Would have liked a warning to book our seats together especially since we splurged on business class flights.

Superb all round. Loved every hotel and nicely chosen- great position for our needs and well specced.

We asked for a tour covering particular areas in Malaysia over 3 weeks. This was arranged as requested by Jess and we had a lovely holiday...from Borneo and orangutangs to start with then on to sophisticated and modern cities Kuala Lumpar, Ipoh and Penang.. and finally a chill out on the beach in Lankawi. The only area we chose that was a disappointment was the Ramen Negra National Park where the most exciting creature to be found was a stick insect. Their award winning forest canopy walkway was closed, the salt lick hide was closed and they have not given an introductory video there for two years apparently.
Plus the number of visitors and building works going on in camp and along the river frontage ensured there was not a bird or animal for miles. Very disappointing.

But Inside Asia found us some fabulous hotels along the way. An oasis of calm and luxury in the diplomatic quarter of the busy city of KL, Villa Samadi, a 20 room boutique hotel was a wonderful surprise. The Weil in Ipoh was by contrast a large modern high rise hotel with every luxury, including panoramic views from the rooftop infinity pool. And the historic Areca Hotel in George Town, the rooms spacious and it's charming indoor garden terrace with 30 foot palm trees were the three best . But all accommodation was good.

The food was delicious in all accomodation . With a variety of tastes catered for..from super hot spicy to fairly mild. Plus we enjoyed finding our own lunches and dinners..and found both delicious and great value food easily.
Malaysia is a predominantly Moslem country with large Chinese and Indian origin populations. It seems a busy ,peaceful and tolerant country. The people were all welcoming.. Malaysian hospitality is famous...and friendly. I strongly recommend as a place to explore and learn about.A fascinating holiday. Thank you Jess and Inside Asia.

Thank you Jess. Please read my feedback as Taman Negara was a mistake...not your fault as we asked for it..but so you can inform colleagues. I have given clear feedback on the rest. You did a great job.

Accommodation
★★★★★

See first feedback. Villa Samadi,KL, Weil in Ipoh and Iveco, George Town are the 3 stand outs.
But jungle in Borneo. Sepilok..specially good for Orangutangs and the Sukau Lodge and Casa del Mare also outstanding in their own ways too.
