Reviews of our Central America Tours for January
Reviews from guests who toured through Central America during January.
Beata S | Traveled in January
Great trip! We saw so many animals and plants. Great food and awesome guides. The rain was a bit of a factor and as such we missed some activities. Suggestion is to think about plan B when rain happens, eg a talk about the behaviour of the animals or plants or a cooking class.
Megan C | Traveled in January
Loved working with all my CEOs, they had different styles but were all knowledgeable in their regions and helpful to the group. Pay them more. Seriously, they aren’t getting paid enough for what they have to do.
Lauren H | Traveled in January
Wonderful trip with Shadwell and Elwin. The scenery was out of this world, and for someone who despises camping, it was a seamless adventure at each stop. Long drives which I was expecting, but entire days on the road became a bit tedious.
Anonymous | Traveled in January
Out of our 29 tours with Collette, this was our favorite. Great tour manager, An Doan, made the tour fun, exciting, busy if you wanted, and so much more. Riding vespas and hiking to falls in Laos. All are memorable experiences. We would repeat this tour at a later date.
Danai A | Traveled in January
It was a very nicely paced trip. The group was amazing, we had a lot of fun and our CEO was great. Although it was a short trip for me, I feel that I experienced a lot of things in a few days.
Lindsay W | Traveled in January
We had a good experience in India and Nepal. Our tour guide in India (Binu) was very assertive, knowledgeable and friendly. He couldn't do enough for us! We also saw some beautiful sights - thank you!
