Your arrangements gave us exactly what we wanted. But we were surprised that this was not a group tour as we thought it would be. Each hotel and excursion was separate, as opposed to being with the same group and tour guide the whole time. However, it worked out fine. We especially loved the hotels selected by the tour company because they were centrally located and we could easily walk around the various cities.

Contrasts of Colombia definitely the right tour title. Trip was so different every day.
Catalina was fabulous, funny, informative, full of energy and took everyone's preferences into account. Especially loved the workshops and demonstrations.
The only minor spoilers foe me were that we didn't get to go to the leather workshop, the bus was too cramped (but sorted later for which we were all grateful), the red house was closed but again Cat arranged for bus to drop us there avoiding a long walk back.
This being said I loved the whole trip and have already recommended my friends book it.

We thoroughly enjoyed all the guides and all the towns and cities we visited. We saw some of the most beautiful landscapes we have ever seen and felt that everyday was an adventure. We are home now and already miss South America. Thank you again for a truly memorable experience.

The highlight of traveling with you was the promptness and timeliness of service.
All Hotels were very good and our favourite excursion was at Iguazu Falls, it was very scenic.

Arturo was a fantastic leader and guide. Knowledgable, helpful, caring, experienced and amusing. This was my 11th Explore holiday and Arturo is up there with the best guides. The porters and cooks are heroes - we were very happy to tip them generously. The itinerary was perfect, though no one should underestimate the challenge of around ten hours walking on day three. Cusco hotel staff were fine but the layout around a central atrium means the rooms are very noisy. The hotel near Machu Picchu was lovely but the staff were rude, unhelpful and disinterested. Overall I’d fully recommend this trip - but be sure to get into shape beforehand and consider your kit carefully.
