What our clients say about us

Elephant Nature Park
27-28 November 2005

"We found the Discover Asia Travel through the Association of Thai Travel Agents and found them to be extremely helpful and accommodating from start to finish. Their standard of service and flexibility on what they would do for you was excellent. We had booked an internal trip with them and so needed tickets and other paperwork. After a long trip to Thailand, there was no need for us to find their agency, they came directly to our hotel to meet us and hand over everything we needed personally. We would highly recommend them."

Thank you Discover Asia Travel for providing me with the most memorable and enjoyable vacation trip of my lifetime.

Prior to contacting Discover Asia Travel, I had attempted to put together a trip on my own using the internet and tour books. What a headache! Then, a Sierra Club member referred me to Wangdowa Sherpa at Discover Asia Travel. Having a personal reference gave me a much greater degree of comfort. I emailed Wangdowa, told him where I wanted to go, and for how long. Within a short time, the entire itinerary was specially designed for me. I sent Wangdowa numerous emails with lots of apprehensive questions, and he always graciously and patiently answered each and every question, putting me at total ease.

I just returned from my trip and it was flawless. I was treated like a celebrity by everyone on the staff.

I would like to give a special thank you to my guide in Bangkok and Northern Thailand, Ping Pong. He was more than a great guide, he became a friend.

I would recommend Discover Asia Travel to anyone. No group is too small, for I was a party of one, and it turned out fantastic.

Jalman Meadows Ger Camp Mongolia
6-12 June 2005

"Dear Jan, all the staff at Jalman Meadows, the horse men, and the drivers,

Just to express our appreciation of the great hospitality and efficiency we received during our days in Mongolia. From the airport-pick up to the Jalman Meadows Ger Camp, it was one of the most happiness times of our life. And we felt sad once such moment had ended once we left.

All the staff, including the horse men we met were truly attentive and caring. The place was magic with unforgettable scenery. We hope to be back again.

The trip was fantastic. We were really enjoy every moment there. The scenery was like being on the other planet. The staff and the accommodation were very excellent. It was simply "Oriental Hotel on the grass". And our horse riding was unforgettable. This could not be experienced anywhere else. Nothing could be equal as riding a Mongolian horse in Mongolia.

We hope to go to your office and chat with you about your Everest sometime. In fact, in Mongolia, by chance, we had an opportunity of joining the celebration of the first three Mongolian who just came back from reaching the summit.

Of course, we are glad that you would use our comment for posting. We wants others to know how happy we were as well."

Krabi Eco Tour 2004 "

I just completed a second eco-tour with the folks at Discover Asia Travel and it was even better than the last one! Wangdowa and his guide saw to every detail. The trip went off without a hitch and was a super learning experience for everyone involved. Our tour of Krabi was fabulous from beginning to end. I can't recommend it enough! We're looking at a trip to Chang Mai for next year. If we go it will definitely be with Discover Asia Travel."

"I found the two trips that I went on in Thailand with Discover Asia Travel Co. to be fantastic. The service was great and attentive and the ambiance delightful./s/

"We just returned from our "jungle realms" tour in Thailand and we had a wonderful experience. Wangdowa and the folks at Discover Asia Travel did a great job. Our tour was well planned from beginning to end, and our tour guides were knowledgeable and friendly. They handled our seventeen teenagers with ease, and that's no small feat. We will take another school trip next year, and we're planning on going with Discover Asia Travel."

Ed Gravlin, Taegu American School, Taegu, Korea

"Visiting Thailand with Discover Asia Travel was a great experience. I really enjoyed. Myself, coming from a western country to an unknown and exotic country such as Thailand was a bit scary. When I first got there I was warmly welcome by the very professional people of Discover Asia Travel Co. So quickly they made me feel like at home. I traveled Thailand from north to south without any worry, everything went just perfect! I went to southern part of Thailand, into one of the most beautiful islands, called Koh Phra Thong. There I was surrounded by nature, wild life and amazing beaches. I just had a very nice time there and at a very interesting price. I wish to visit it again. Thank you Discover Asia Travel Co.!"

David Valls, Barcelona, Catalonia, European Union

"Visiting Nepal and trekking through your beautiful country has been a dream of mine since I was a child. I want to thank the wonderful staff of Discover Asia Travel Co., Ltd. of Thailand, and Asian Travel Adventures-Nepal for making this dream come true. The guides were extremely courteous. They freely shared their knowledge about the countryside and the people we visited. The chef and the staff were excellent. I still try to explain to my friends how someone could make such a beautiful birthday cake on the trail without an oven. The village we stayed in, the shaman healing we attended, and the special Buddhist ceremony we witnessed were very special events I will remember forever. I feel this trek was very unique--something we would not have experienced without your guidance and your flexibility in creating a trek that can't be found in the guidebooks. Thanks again for a memorable experience. Namaste."

Charlotte S. Pollard, Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA

"I think of you all so often with much fondness and gratitude and hope someday to trek again with you and Asian Travel Adventures. It was an incredible experience and I can not imagine being in better hands. You and everyone in your company took such good care of us from the hot tea delivered to our tents each morning to the wonderful birthday cake your head cook baked for Anna on the trail in the pouring rain. Even though the weather did not always cooperate, I still had the most amazing adventure of my life. Your great knowledge of the area led us to remote villages, monasteries and even to a special ceremony with a Shaman in Phapre. Thank you so much." Very Sincerely,

Sally Condon, Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA

"I thought all of you were absolutely so wonderful and kind and supportive. I really did appreciate all the attention to detail and your going with me to the airport to claim my lost baggage as well as meeting us there upon our arrival. I really felt secure with you and your team. I had total confidence in your experience. As you know, I loved the Sherpas and thought your supporting group were the kindest people in the world. I will always have a special place in my heart for the Sherpas who helped me each day like Tenji and Chongba. They all treated us with such patience, kindness and consideration. I hope you will say hi to them. And, Ang Kami also was truly a great leader and admirable. I will never ever forget the trek as long as I live. It is probably the most adventurous thing I have ever done in my life and I am truly glad I did it. It is really hard to describe the trip to friends here in the states. I tell them about it and then say it was like stepping into an action packed adventure movie. For me, I loved meeting the shaman and the Buddhist monks. They were the highlight of the trip, especially knowing, that the shaman had never worked on any Westerners before. I really truly felt privileged and honored to experience the many sacred spots you guided us too. I also want to thank you personally for watching over each of us, guiding us, supporting us and helping us through an experience unlike any of us have ever encountered. I really appreciate all your kindness, consideration, and extra efforts you made. If any of you come to the Bay Area, I hope you will feel free to call me so I can take you out to dinner. I hope you will stay in touch and that all is going well. I look forward to meeting you again soon I hope! Be well!"
