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.

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.

This was an excellent tour. We a nice sampling of Argentina and Brazil in just two weeks. The countries are huge, so many weeks could be spent traveling to much of their sites and cities.
Diego, our tour guide, was terrific!! Hats off to Diego!!

This was an excellent trip in every way. The leader Alejandro was outstanding- very caring, helpful , informative and well-organised. Peru is a varied and interesting country and although Machu Picchu was spectacular there were many other highlights to our tour. The itinerary covered a lot of ground but it was not too rushed with a good mix of organised activities and some free time. The transport by bus and train was comfortable and the hotels were good and well-situated.

Thoroughly enjoy the trip. The itinerary was well thought out. Plenty of time to allow for acclimatisation before the final highlight - the Inca Trail. Special shout out to Darwin our tour leader who goes extra mile to ensure we enjoy our trip. He is very keen to share his knowledge and love about Peru.

I was wowed by the beauty and scale of Argentina. Our tour leader Carolina could not do enough to look after us all and make sure we all had an enjoyable experience. The wine tours were interesting and varied, and the wine tasting great fun and of high quality. I would have liked a few more short walks included, but understand they would be hard to fit in as we were covering such distances.

This was a busy but amazing trip. Matchu pichu was out of this world.
Galapagos was wonderful, so much wildlife and great memories made with our group.
Definitely should have packed less so could buy more.
