I got put in a group of 4 (including me) when the max is 18 and average is 12-14, I do not believe it is reasonable and honest to run tours of 4. Not an enjoyable ?group tour? experience.

While I had a great time on my trip, I was expecting there to be a larger group. I understand that G Adventures will run a group as small as two people, but I was expecting a different experience when I booked my trip. I would have appreciated a notification ahead of the trip as I would have been able to join the group a day ahead.

Great tour leader

The tour was well organized and gave ample time to explore each place along with meeting new friends along the way. Perfectly assisted by a well informative CEO along the way.

The guide was great and he did such a good job but there was only 3 other people on my tour which wasn't the experience I was after, it was advertised as a group tour and party and I was only female.

The group was too small and not overly friendly

Style of travel was reasonable good, however I think given the cost of the tour and how much extra we had to pay for activities, could of done it way cheaper.
