James' review for another G Adventures tour

“Truly loved Spain and Portugal. Morrocco was exciting as well, but more from a cultural perspective. Really pleased with the overall tour - it was fab! Thanks-”
CHRISTINA's review for another G Adventures tour

Very Good
“the tour is very nice but more activities could be included, such as hiking, diving etc. It would be nice if they added some extra days to visit Greenland which is very close. There was a lot of driving. The hotels were impressively good. Iceland is expensive and more meals could alos be included. The tour guide was good and gave insight to the local living.”
