Ralfh, expat in Russia:
We had booked a one week trip to Kamchatka in September. The trip schedule and accommodation were pre-discussed in accordance with our preferences. All was perfectly arranged and we received daily briefings comprising all relevant information. The team was always available and took great care of us. The local guide was extremely friendly and spoke very good English. Excellent team and definitely a recommendation for anyone planning a trip to Kamchatka.
