This was our first trip with G Adventures and we were extremely disappointed with the quality of the guide, who was a last minute replacement with insufficient training and/or experience. her english was also quite limited - we don't blame the guide who was thrown in and did her very best but rather the lack of oversight or follow up from the organization, which does not make it a one off and rather a 'likely to repeat situation' - who also contact G Adventures halfway through the trip to voice our concerns and received totally unhelpful responses ('we hear your concerns and we passed the information for another departement who will investigate' - we did eventually receive a response after the trip was completed and a small refund but we would have much prefered help during the trip (like supporting our inexperienced guide with another guide) - for those reasons we believe this is a systemic issue and would be afraid to recommend you to our friends and family - it is unacceptable to throw in a inexperienced guide and hope for the best, the lack of oversight and training is the key issue
