Guest Testimonials

"Everything was stellar. Our accommodations were spectacular (especially Singita Castleton), the guides and hosts were outstanding (from Stellenbosch to Madikwe and Singita), and the food was exquisite. We saw all the animals!!! It was fabulous. The local team flexed our flights due to weather so we had zero worries. It was great. The only small recommendation is to have easier contact locally with more details to the group - there was one last minute pickup for a dinner that fell through and I didn’t know who to call. Minor detail! The entire trip was fabulous and you even got us in with the best restaurant in Africa - where our friends got engaged that evening! So special." JB

"Lucy Rudgard and her co-staff members were professional, courteous and always concerned about us during the entire experience." JO

"We had an amazing time in Japan. All of our guides were wonderful and so helpful navigating the cities! The hotels were incredible and we enjoyed all of our excursions. Thank you for planning an unforgettable trip!" EBB

"Great trip! Livia did a wonderful job listening to our wants and put it together perfectly. Our guides were prompt, courteous and on-time. Accommodations were a perfect match. The only issue we had was in Geneva finding the exact location to find the guide should have more specific instructions on where to meet as the fountain area is quite large. A cross-street reference would have worked better. The address given did not meet us up with our guide. Also, the driver from Chamonix to Verbier was prompt however, his driving was a bit chaotic especially up the mountain. It was unnerving." LF

"We loved the Calabash. It was exactly what we were looking for as it relates to our New Years trip - thank you!" JL

"The hotels, guides, and food arrangements were well above what we expected. We had a perfect trip with no regrets or complaints on any aspect of it." DDM

"While all guides were excellent, the guide Miguel during our time in Sacred Valley and Cuzco was especially exceptional. He was extremely well educated about the local area and history beyond the other guides, due to his passion for the culture of the area and made us feel very welcome. Many times, we heard other travelers remark they were curious about something their guide did not know the answer to, but Miguel had spoken with us about it. I would suggest requesting him for future guests!" KJ

"The trip was really wonderful. Simon and all the in-country guides were fantastic. All the hotels met or exceeded our expectations." JT

"Planning our honeymoon to Thailand was exceptional when using Scott Dunn. As a same-sex female couple, we wanted to ensure our guides and hotels we were staying at were LGBTQ friendly and working with you gave us the peace of mind that everything would run smoothly. Our luxury travel specialist, Corey, was more than willing to answer our many questions and helped go back and forth with us to put together our perfect 14-day itinerary to Bangkok, Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai and Koh Yao Noi. He was very responsive and knowledgeable about Thailand. The hotels you partner with were gorgeous and we could tell you have good relationships with them. We liked your app and found all the included information was super helpful during our trip! We appreciated the surprises along the way but think sharing details about some of them (like complimentary massages) in advance would help encourage others to book with you." SS

"Another fantastic Scott Dunn trip. The accommodations, air travel, guides (Abrahim and Mahmud), drivers (Mohammed in Cairo) and meet and greet (Ali) were amazing. Ali particularly went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Abrahim is a wonderful, energetic guide who is passionate about Egyptian history and culture and his energy is contagious. Every part of the trip ensured our ease and comfort. I do wish we could have included a couple of "magic moments" such as a special dinner or entertainment similar to what you all did for us in Morocco. We did not discuss this before the trip and it would have added some texture. The Oberoi Zahra was wonderful. The staff was amazing and the boat top notch. The food and accommodations were fantastic. Please pass on to Oberoi our special thanks to Mohamed Saady, Hossam (server) and room attendant Mostafa. They were super kind and took great care of us. All in all a wonderful trip!! Thank you!!" DKJ
