I first contacted Lateral Life on a whim when I received some attractive looking promotional materials in the post, filled with glowing testimonials from other lawyers. (If you can please a lawyer, you must be doing something right…)
As I was about to start planning a 5-week honeymoon in an exotic location, using a specialist travel agent seemed like a good idea.
However, the quality of the service provided by Nick Matthews and his team at Lateral Life was a million times better than my wife and I could have expected.
From the first planning meeting, when Nick “gently” persuaded us that the locations we had in mind ourselves were too dull and that only an African extravaganza would do, to numerous sessions poring over maps in Nick’s office, the pre-trip service was first rate from start to finish, and Nick’s warmth and genuine passion for travel was utterly infectious.
As for the trip itself, it is difficult to describe just how magical an experience our whirlwind journey through Southern Africa was.
From driving ourselves down the shipwreck-strewn Skeleton Coast in Namibia and white-water rafting in the Zambezi at Victoria Falls, to strolling through the sun-drenched streets of Stone Town in Isla de Mozambique and watching thousands of wildebeest try to avoid snapping crocodiles as they crossed the Mara river in Tanzania, our honeymoon was a rare example of a 10/10 travelling experience.
The organisation, transport and accommodation was first class throughout, and we genuinely felt as though we were a trip that had been tailor-made for us: about as far from a package holiday as you could wish for!
Thanks Nick – we’re looking forward to the next trip with Lateral Life already!
