This trip was the first solo trip I have ever done and to say that it has changed my life is an understatement. I enjoyed every moment of every day. Because of G Adventures, I never felt unsafe in the location I was in and was able to reap all the benefi...

Really worth doing this tour with G adventures.
04/15/2024
These group tours weren’t really on the cards for me as a solo traveller. Made a decision to give GA a try and I don’t think I’ll look back. If you’re contemplating any group tours give GA a look. Throughout my tour of South America I witnessed how much ...

I had an absolute blast on this trip! Made friends I know I’m going to be in contact with for a long time and it was a safe, comfortable and exciting way to make the most of Ecuador and Peru!

The highlight was the insights Edith added to the tour. This tour provided an introduction into Ecuador and Peru and has motivated me to return and explore other areas in Peru and South America.

I had such a great time and made amazing friends. I felt like I have seen Ecuador very well using this tour.

A huge disappointment. Coming off an incredible G Adventures tour in the Galápagos Islands, I was very excited for this 2 week tour through Ecuador and Lima, yet it was not at all what I hoped, and in fact the whole second week I couldn't wait for it...

Some of the best experiences of my life were on this trip. I’ve always wanted to travel—more specifically to South America—solo, and I cannot recommend a better way to do it than G Adventures.
01/17/2024
Very fun and enjoyable experience. Great tour leader. Only problem. I had was one individual on the tour who tried to pick fights with everyone. They called me a misogynist which really cut me deep. Ed did great to make me feel better.
01/16/2024
Such a great introduction to South America with a fun group of likeminded people. I booked this trip 5 days before leaving and going with G Adventure made it easy tu jump on a plane and go with little worry. I feel like I’ve only scratched the surface of...

I'm glad half of my group were really good people and they really made the trip for me. Overall, I was really disappointed and uncomfortable most days. Like mentioned before, someone in our group found outside activities for us to do since there was ...
