This was my first trip to Alaska and my first G Adventures tour, and it couldn’t have been better. The Hiking Valdez itinerary was incredible — from the scenery to the activities, every moment was memorable. The experience exceeded my expectations and made this trip truly unforgettable. I’m already looking forward to traveling with G Adventures again!

I had a really great time in Alaska and would do it again! The tour was fun, our CEO Charlie was great and it was a fun time throughout the whole week! Kayaking in Valdez was fun and what really blew my mind was Wrangell St. Elias NP, such a beautiful and pristine landscape!

I wanted to share my positive experience with Bookmundi regarding my recent 18-day 'Zen and Scenic Japan' tour. The booking process was remarkably easy and hassle-free, which was a huge relief. The customer service team deserves special praise for their patience and polite responses to my many questions, making me feel fully supported. The tour was more affordably priced than similar ones from other companies, and the bonus program was an appreciated addition. Because of this excellent experience, Bookmundi has earned a permanent client. Thank you for such a great journey.
