Our family had a wonderful experience! We got a taste of the big highlights of Peru and had a lovely time with the other families and the guides. It was especially great going on a family adventure since we have an only child.
Fabulous! We appreciated the support pre-trip as well, with arranging last minute airport transport and an extra night stay in Quito. Staff were helpful and professional. We loved the Galapagos and appreciate this trip so much!

We had an amazing trip!!! The company in Uyuni Damayatur went above and beyond for us! We also loved our driver in La Paz- and Nirco our tour guide too- so informative. We also really enjoyed Nilo our guide for the Mashaquipe Ecolodge and our tour there! It was a treat to be in the city for Gran Poder as well. Great trip! Highly recommend!!!
The trip to Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands was the perfect balance of adventurous activities and cultural experiences for me. I loved all of the numerous activities packed into this trip and appreciated that CharlieTheTraveler organized the trip so well so it never felt like I was being rushed from site to site like I have felt with some other tour companies. This was the perfect getaway for me!
I really enjoyed my stay in Colombia through this tour of CharlieTheTraveler. The activities and excursions were well planned out. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly. The accommodations were welcoming. I felt well supported throughout the entire trip. I would not hesitate to book with this company again.
Absolutely incredible experience! Our tour guide, Rom, was so patient with our group and provided so much information for each spot! 100% will use this agency again!

As my wife mentioned, we made this tour to Argentina and absolutely loved it. The tour is great because it combines three destinations that we were willing to visit this time in Argentina which were Buenos Aires city, Iguazu Falls and the northern region of the country, which are all very different from each other. Great experience!
