I had a great time with Gadventures trip to Peru and Boliva. I highly recommend Gadventures, National Geographic small group trips. I believe these trips offer special insight into the local cultures.
The National Geographic tour was well paced, friendly, informative, comfortable, & safe. They planned all the things I wanted to see without the logistics challenges.
This journey felt significantly longer than its actual duration—in the best possible way! I thoroughly enjoyed every moment, appreciating both the wonderful group and the breathtaking landscapes of Patagonia. What I valued most was the ability to fully embrace the experience without the need for planning or decision-making. Every detail was so well taken care of that I could completely relax and immerse myself in the beauty of Patagonia without any concerns.
From Peru to Bolivia, Lima to La Paz, take a tour of some of the region's most fascinating destinations, starting with the captivating Peruvian capital of Lima. Learn about the incredible flora and fauna of the vast Amazon Jungle. Take a scenic train ride through the Andean mountains to reach the breathtaking 'lost city' of Machu Picchu and meet the indigenous people of the floating islands of Uros on Lake Titicaca. This 14 day tour ends with a visit to lakeside Copacabana before exploring the lofty city of La Paz.
A fantastic tour to experience a good slice of Columbia! Especially good if this is your first time in Colombia, with a great mix of city and beach, with lots of included activities that you would want to do. Rafael was one of the best CEOs we have had on our many G Adventures tours.
Perfection. I have nothing to complain about. And it was truly the trip of a lifetime. I’ve wanted to visit Peru since I was 3 years old watching Jacque Cousteau (I’m 59 now) and it was every bit as magical, intriguing, awe inspiring, and beautiful as I had hoped.

Shared more about this previously :) But I also wanted to add that for me, the highlight of the trip was our visit to the Parque de la Papa. This was such a special opportunity and the work G Adventures does for local communities is admirable.
The overall experience was outstanding. Patagonia is a wonderful destination, one of the last wildernesses in the world and a place to be treasured. We really enjoyed the hikes and would have been happy to do more. Tash the CEO and her colleagues were really friendly, helpful and passionate about Patagonia. Tash had excellent knowledgable about nature, flora, fauna and the areas we visited. The glaciers were breathtaking and the accommodation was excellent, especially Estancia Cristina, the remoteness was just what we needed, to be away from the frenetic ways of modern life for a while. The tour was well organised and communication was excellent. Would definitely recommend G Adventures for this type of holiday
