Reviews of Far & High Adventure Travel (Travel Agency)

Wendy Osmond

Working with Far & High was very good. Postak answered all my questions quickly and provided me with all the information that I needed to make this tour work for me. The tour itself (Mongolia / Naadam Festival), arranged by Far & High with a local company in Mongolia, was excellent. As a single traveller it is often difficult to find a company that I can work with, so I appreciated this as well.

I had a great trip to Myanmar with Far and High. While planning the trip, they were very responsive to all my questions, and their support in-country was wonderful. We had great guides throughout the country and all the transport (planes, boats, motor bikes, horse carts, etc. . . . ) went without a hitch. The hotels were the best available, with great accommodations and wonderful, big breakfasts. We were lucky to be at Inle Lake during a big Buddhist Festival and it was terrific. We had front row seats for the whole parade. I would recommend them wholeheartedly .

My sister, Chris Schrader, of World Travel Service, invited me, her brother, along on a FAM trip to Bhutan, December 12-21, 2018. It provided me with forever lasting memories, a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience. I dearly loved Bhutan, it's wonderfully friendly people, and every moment I was there. But beyond my own joy, I also want to acknowledge a few people associated with this trip. Firstly, our tour guide, Rinzin Wangchuck. "Rinzi" was one of the best tour guides I have ever come in contact with. He was extremely knowledgably, helpful, and always available to answer questions at any time. He is also a very kind, caring, & gentle person, with an immense amount of patience, which was definitely needed at times with this tour group, and which I suspect was a challenge for him on some occasions. People are not always easy to please, but from my observations, he tried his hardest. And as far as I'm concerned, he ranks as a 10-star guide. If I ever get a chance to return to Bhutan, I would be proud to have him as my guide. Secondly, our van and luggage drivers, Yonten and Yorji, both extremely skilled, kind, & happy souls, and I would trust my life on their driving. And there was a time or two that we literally had to!! We encountered unusual snow conditions at two high altitude passes, causing long unexpected delays due to inexperienced & somewhat rude drivers trying to drive on road conditions they should not have attempted. Without the patience & skill of both of our drivers, we easily could have been stranded along with many of the other drivers stuck in the passes for hours. But Yonten and Yorji always got us safely to our lodging destinations. Finally, I want to acknowledge two Far and High employees that accompanied our tour group, Sareena Kunal, located in their Kathmandu, Nepal office, and Pema Dorji, located in Paro, Bhutan. These two young ladies are perhaps the finest representatives for Far and High Adventure Travels that could have been added to the tour. I understand the purpose of their participation was to give them both an opportunity to familiarize themselves with this tour and it's elements. But my sister and I both agreed that these two charming, friendly, out-going young ladies added immensely to the enjoyment of the trip. In fact, they were our two favorite participants, and we believe we have made two new friends for life! Far and High can indeed be proud of these two young women, as they couldn't have represented their company any better. I could not give higher praise to High and Far Adventure Travel services ... simply the best!!

A friend and I joined a Far & High Adventure Travel small group tour of Bhutan, Nepal and Tibet (7 people in total). It was a fantastic trip and we never worried about a thing ! The guides were knowledgeable and personable and we were transported everywhere in a comfortable van. They kept a supply of bottled water in the van so we didn't even have to worry about keeping hydrated ! A totally fantastic experience all the way through - the trip of a lifetime !

I went with a group of ten to Tibet and really enjoyed it. Postak and his company had everything done perfectly for our group. The guide was good, hotels were nice, meals were fine and I couldn't have asked for a better trip. If you get the chance to do Tibet with Far & High Adventure, do it. Everest Base Camp is beautiful and so is the monestary that you stay at.
