5.0 - Excellent

I really enjoyed the trip. The guide () really went above and beyond to make everything special. He even helped organise activities that weren’t on the itinerary. There were a few flights within the tour that were too late in the day resulting in a wasted day. Every place we went to was amazing. I wasn’t overly happy with the local guide at Iguazú Falls, but everything else was great

Our trip leader was fantastic! Both very knowledgeable and very passionate about the places we were visiting and the local history and culture, and went above and beyond to organise activities for us to do. He even organised for us to go to a local football game in Brazil when it lined up with a free evening!

The trip was really good with lots of standout places and experiences. Our trip manager was brilliant. He was friendly and knowledgeable and made everything easy. Some of the accommodation wasn’t the best (poor showers, uncomfortable beds, no safety lock box, no elevator) but for the most part acceptable.

I met some of the best characters on this group tour, friends for life and had some of the experiences and memories that will live with me forever. The 65 day tour of South America is fast moving and packs so much in. The CEOs from G are the best and are always there to take care of you and the rest of the group, all you have to do is turn up and enjoy your trip

A wonderful trip which covers many of the highlights of South America. Fast paced trip as moving from place to place a lot which was fine with me but some people could find this very tiring. Good range of places visited from cities to beaches to countryside. I enjoyed the included activities but would have been happier for the price of the trip to be slightly higher so that more activities were included. I would recommend the trip to others.
