Trip Reviews

I had an absolute ball. High points were the wonderful people we had in our group and of course trekking the inca trail.

It was an incredible trip. Our tour leader was excellent. Peru is a beautiful country. The Inca trail really pushes you to your limits.

The trip was very well organised and ran smoothy. It was our first pre-organised tour and made things stress free but adding the element of adventure and indivuality to enjoy it. Our tour leader was very helpful and always went above and beyond to help.

Terry was an excellent guide. Very attentive. Full of great advice and coordinating our travel connections. Machu Picchu was awesome and the highlight of our trip. No downsided to report. Accomodations were always good. Lake Titicaca homestay was also a highlight.

This G Adventures tour exceeded my expectations. The places we visited were outside the usual holiday experiences and they certainly lived up to the brochures descriptions. The logistics of traveling were eased by connections at airports. The travel arrangements were being handled smoothly and efficiently by Jorges. He kept the whole group informed and well advised at all times and was great fun to be with. The Lares Trek was superb amazing landscapes and Javier was a wonderful guide full of information and encouragement over the very high passes.Meeting only local people away from other tourists made these couple of days feel really unique and gave me a real sense of the place and people who live there. The support team were amazing at looking after us and were very gracious as hosts. All I had to do was sit back and enjoy the spectacular landscape. The home stay with Olga on Lake Titicaca was just lovely. Olga and her family were so welcoming and shared their home most generously. We had great chats and exchanged stories songs and helped prepare the delicious evening meal. Percy our guide on Lake Tititcaca really deserves a special mention he is full of passion about his home. He was so charming humorous and full of fun he made the trip really well rounded. The swim in Lake Titicaca was amazing refreshing and something I would recommend. The Amazon Lodge was simply wonderful and the staff and food outstanding. Seeing monkeys, magaws, vultures, cayman and amazing butterlfies and insects not to mention the huge trees all added a great glimpse of the wonders of the Amazon. The Highlight for me was achieving a life long wish of visiting Machu Picu which is magical and even though a little misty it all added to the experience as the citadel revealed and concealed itself throughout my visit. I would recommend climbing Wynupicu but only if not scared of steep climbs and sheer drops.Well worth the climb. A great adventure one that will stand out for me for long long time. Thanks to all the local guides and G Adventures for a really great time.

Peru is just simply brilliant???.. I just got back from the Peru Panaroma adventure. There was so much to do -- exploring the cities, nightlife, sightseeing, etc??The highlight of the trip was the Inca Trail hike which was just unbelievable. There are really no words to describe it. Gladys, our G Adventures leader and Hamilton and Elvi, the United Mice local guides made the trip so enjoyable and safe -- we had lots of fun -- laughing and talking the whole hike through. My utmost gratitude to all the porters and the cooks in our group who took care of us so well. It's amazing the work they did for us. When you finally reach the top of each mountain and especially, Machu Picchu -- talk about absolute, untainted pure beauty. Awesome does not even begin to describe the sight from the mountain top to the valleys below. The best part of the trip is the people you meet and I was fortunate to forge lifetime friendships. I couldn't have asked for better fellow group members. We had such a great time together. Also, the Peruvian people are some of the most generous and gracious people I have ever met. As a single female traveling, G Adventures provided the safety and security I was looking for??..I didn't have to worry about anything except for showing up -- Gladys took care of the everything. I encourage everyone to consider G Adventures for their next travel and I look forward to my next G Adventure.

The tour leader Gladys will forever hold a dear place in my heart. A true sweetheart willing to give you the shirt on her back if you need it. The tour itself had zero low points, even waking up at 4 in the morning was great with our group. The mix in the group made for a fantastic time. we are all life long friends and are planning to get together for a reunion soon. I will recommde both Percy and Galdys to all my friends on their way to Peru. I am not used to touring the world with a group, but G Adventures certainly opended my eyes to the sheer fun and feeling of family that quickly forms when you are all going through the same awesome experience. I will travel G Adventures again!!!

Far exceeded our overall expectations of what group travel would be like. This was our first tour (we have always traveled independently) and we really had a great time.
