This is a excellent introductory tour of South America visiting 2 of the continent's most dynamic cities, (Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires) and one of the world's most incredible natural wonders, the Iguazu Falls. This is not a typical motor coach tour as it travels between locations using domestic airlines. All ground transportation to see the sites within the aforementioned cities and the falls was on large, comfortable coaches using different drivers for each location, all excellent. Everything went without a hitch thanks to our great tour director, Rodrigo. After this tour we want to explore South America more. Highly Recommended.

Comprehensive, felt like I saw a wide spectrum of what Colombia has to offer, and a few surprises that I never would’ve sought out to experience myself!

The 21 day adventure exceeded my expectations. It provided a wonderful introduction to the history and diversity of Peru’s culture. The hike to Machu Picchu was, in places, challenging but imminently doable. The tour leaders were knowledgeable, friendly, engaging and interesting people.
My desire to participate in another G Adventures tour is driven in large part by the quality of their tour leaders.

It's the first time I've done a National Geographic tour and the accommodation was at the next level compared to classic tours.
Lunch on the salt flats was awesome, table, chairs, food and wine. Followed by sparkling cider for tea with snacks....G never fails to surprise me by taking it up the next level.
Izzy helped me out with my on line check in, as well as a few others in the group. He is definitely deserving of being a primary CEO

Simply the best trip I have ever been on. I did not want to come home! The leader made everything happen with no hitches - and encouragement for a slightly trepidatious snorkeller! As for the Galapagos - Wow! I think that that the trip, being landbased, allowed us to experience so much more, meet more locals and eat local food and just soak up the atmosphere - on the beaches or in the bar!!

Loved my first GAdventure trip and definitely more to come. Our guide Carlos with very informative, time management was good and he was always readily available to assist with any request. Beautiful destinations, great excursions and free time to explore on my own
Had an amazing group of people for my 2 week journey and felt like family.
