Just to let you know that we have all made it back safe and wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for organizing such an amazing trip for us.
I want to say how wonderful our trip was and to thank you for all your hard work in giving us yet another exceptional Laterallife experience. All in all, the hotels were great, particularly the Ritz Carlton who could not have been more lovely and we had a gorgeous time!! Thank you so much again.
We have just returned from a tremendous two-month trip to New Zealand and Indonesia. Nick and Nicoletta put together a wonderful itinerary for us, having really made an effort to get to know us and work out what we wanted as a family.
There’s so much to say about our Indonesian trip! The relaxed, beach vibe of the Belmond Jimbaran Puri was a perfect start. Our boat adventure in Borneo gave us amazing wildlife sightings and so many magic moments.
Ian Priest: We have been on many family adventures with Laterallife over the years, many for extended periods . This time was a shorter trip – just over two weeks in Indonesia . The first ten days in Bali , firstly in a very special villa on the beach near Canggu and secondly inland to Ubud where we went white water rafting and cycling down a volcano.
We were absolutely delighted with the one month long itinerary that Nick and his team put together for us. It was a perfect combination of culture, relaxation and fun, and harmoniously balanced both their ideas and our own.
Looking back, our 56 day trip included 18 flights, 25 hotels/lodges/resorts and multiple drivers/guides/itineraries. There were essentially no glitches which is truly amazing!!! Many thanks, Nick, for all your work and monitoring during the trip.
“We had the time of our lives! Nick was patient and attentive through the planning process and tailored our itinerary to our interest and requirements.
“in 2014 my family and I travelled through South America for 9 weeks whilst on sabbatical with laterallife. Such was its success that our proposed 2015 summer villa holiday was replaced by an overland trip in Brazil from Salvador/Bahia to the beaches of Trancoso.
Neil and Max join me in thanking you for so beautifully organising our recent trip to Burma. Not only did you pull out all the stops (we imagine) possible to curate us a wonderful 12 day itinerary on impossibly tight timing and with very short notice but you did so with great attention to detail and considerable understanding of our preferences and innate requirements. Such aplomb and flair.
Lateral Life organised a two month sabbatical in the summer of 2013 for my wife, my children (aged 13, 11, 9 and 5) and me. We travelled to Indonesia, Australia, Ecuador and the US.
We are back today – the glow of Indonesian and African sun still warm on our backs. We are zombies today wandering in that land between yesterday’s glorious realism and tomorrow’s reality – I may never resume consciousness. Thank you for all your efforts on our behalf, we have had a wonderful trip and we look forward to the full debrief.
What a wonderful trip. Every place in South East Asia was so different, from the beauty and friendliness of Laos; to the historic temples and villages of Cambodia; to the chaotic buzz of Vietnam. What was consistent was the excellence of Steve’s organisation, the efficiency and knowledge of the local guides and the fact that all elements of the experience exceeded expectations. Thank you.
We have been back from our yearlong sabbatical for just over a month now and are still heartbroken that the amazing and life-changing experience has come to an end. Nick and his team worked tirelessly on our trip, following us every step of the way from the initial planning stages
Just a quick email to say we have had an amazing trip and many thanks for all your efforts. All the travel plans and bookings went well and we saw so many different places in a short time. The kids loved it too – Anna really enjoyed the Aman stay!
Sitting by Singapore River and sadly leaving for UK this eve. Everything has gone amazingly well. We loved every minute. Great itinerary and guides. Thanks so much. We have come away enriched. Kind regards,
Mark and Adam asked us/laterallife to plan a “we like our creature comforts high end trip”. After much discussion we decided to open their eyes with a first time journey through India, Bhutan, Thailand, Burma, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam.
Hi Nick, Thank you so much for organizing our amazing adventures. Our sabbatical has been amazing throughout and we are so pleased that we asked you to organize it for us. Had it not been for your input at the planning stage we would have missed some of the places that we enjoyed most
