If all your CEO are like Puna I can't go wrong recommending G Adventures.

It was a very positive experience for me and my family.
01/02/2023
I feel that a tour like this offers people an opportunity to do things they may not organize on their own, such as the Earwan Waterfall or many of the temples that we visited. It was safe, clean, well organized and allowed us to not have to make any decisions which is a luxury in our lives.
07/21/2022
I have been doing that recommendation already for some years.
07/21/2022
Opportunities to interact with local communities and experience what it is like to live in the country. Access to local foods,markets etc safely with a guide who can translate and explain the meaning behind things and explain what is going on

The trip was well thought out and led by an amazing guide in Wan
01/09/2022
Because it was the right amount of culture and experience for our family and our guide did such an excellent job of organizing activities, meals, travel arrangements and she went above and beyond what she had to do when we decided to stay longer at the resort at the end of our trip. Her knowledge of and pride in the destinations we visited made it that much better. We wouldn't hesitate to do another G Adventures

Wan, our CEO was amazing and so helpful and informative. We learned and did way more than we would have if we were travelling alone. The tour allowed us to see so much in a short time. We had a very memorable holiday.
