Very good all round

I believe it could have more explicitly stated the accomodatuons and what is entailed such as shared bathrooks, lack of airconditioning etc. Also, i had an airport transfer that never showed up and stressful flights because connection tike was too small to even transfer the luggage. ( Airline lost my luggage for 1 day). Also it seems they should know some things. I was driven to airport at 2 am but the airline counter did not open until 330 am. Overall though it was an excelent gtoup of people and well layed out in terms of sites ad places and use of time.

G Adventures makes traveling to destinations that I would not feel comfortable doing on my own very easy. I also love that the tours take you to locations that aren',t the usual tourist destinations and actually give back to the community.

Variety in the tours/wealth of knowledge of the guides
11/19/2023
I absolutely love G Adventures tours, they show fantastic places while also teaching us about the people living there, the environment, and making sure that we are leaving the world a slightly better place through our travels. The guides are always fantastic, and I love getting to meet lots of new people to explore with!
