Good independent/adventure travel agent in central London

Anyone know of one? Preferably knowledge of more off the wall travel in less known locations.

I know of STA, but would like someone with a bit more knowledge of what they are selling, seen first hand how STA have caused issues with sales. But will go there for a check as well.

Trailfinders are good.

Thanks, I'll pop in this evening.

Any others?

Just book it all yourself.

He probably does not want to book it all himself, hence why he is asking if anyone knows of any independent travel agents.

I'm planning on doing that, however an having some troubles finding some of the things so want an independent aagent with lots of experience to see what they can come up with. I'm guessing nothing but I've been asked to try so I'll have a look at least once. The thread on here didn't come up trumps, but then I wasn't expecting that to either..

Not much of an 'adventure' if you're just buying some generic package holiday... albeit one involving a backpack

I see what you're getting at but that's what they call themselves...

Ended in being not much use but I applaud the guy for his knowledge and dedication, even if I had already seen all he had to offer as such.

Personally I think backpacks are overrated, duffel bag is where it's at, can be thrown around and onto buses/boats easier.

Another vote for Trailfinders.
