The western islands itinerary in the Galapagos aboard the Reina Silvia with Omar Medina as our guide was one of the best trips I've taken, in more than 50 countries over the past 25 years. We saw incredible wildlife - at least 1 or 2 new species each day! - and spectacular landscapes, and we really had time to explore in different ways and take it all in. Omar and the crew of the Reina Silvia took such good care of us in every way and made our adventure safe, fun and memorable. Our group of 16 was fantastic - we've made some true friends, and are already making plans to see each other again. I can't recommend this trip highly enough... just wish there was an option for smaller meal portions (for those of us who are smaller people), since I felt bad wasting such delicious food. The trip was epic, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

This was a trip of a lifetime! G adventures and our CEO's, Felipe and Gustavo, made everything so enjoyable and easy! Getting to the Galapagos was no easy feat and our CEO's handled everything with professionalism and enthusiasm. I felt like I was able to show up and not have to think about anything. I will definitely be booking Gluxe adventures again!

It has been a fantastic experience. I didn’t know what to expect from an organised tour. I usually organise my own trips, but I have been impressed. The level or organisation and attention experienced was second to none. I’d choose G adventures again without hesitation.

The Journey to Macchu Picchu with National Geographic and G Adventures was so much more than I bargained for. Not only did we see and explore Macchu Picchu, but in the days leading up to the "Big Mountain' we learned so much about the Incan culture and practices from the visits to other lesser-known archeological and cultural sites, that by the time we arrived at the UNESCO World Heritage, Macchu Picchu, I felt that I actually understood this extraordinary site and its significance to the Incan people.

Variety of food could have been more varied, smash at every meal and the same green salad. but the food was all well prepared and tasty. i liked the trip very much and would recommend it. the pre trip info pack needs review it offer inaccurate and out of date information.
