We had a truly special trip, during which we experienced so many firsts. The whole trip felt unique and off the beaten tourist track. Our time in Tokyo, surrounded by tourists, really highlighted just how special and intimate the time on the Okinawa and Ishigaki islands was. Our cultural excursions were of such a high quality compared with anything you can book yourself online. Having our CEO open the door into this amazing culture was invaluable to us and allowed us to access many experiences that would not have been available without a guide.

This tour exceeded my expectations on every level. The layout of the tour and the work of our tour guide ensured that I learned a great deal while having a really good time!
Yes, but first I forgot to mention about the first boat trip!! One of the guys suggested people could swim, and there were only two of us that really could swim, and there were people that had to be dragged back to the boat in their life, vest!!! Not really sure why someone didn’t stop them and give them a clear picture of what the swim would be like!!! So maybe next time on that first one it could be a kayak or a swim for strong swimmers!? Joseph was great, and the snorkeling and cave experiences are one of a kind!! Palawan is worth the adventure!!! Thank you for providing us the opportunity to explore new cultures & waters!!
I've loved all the G Adventures tours -- the small groups, the interesting itineraries, and the enthusiastic, knowledgeable and very competent guides (and drivers too!). All three trips I've been on were fantastic introductions to the country (India, Turkey, and now China and Vietnam). I'm already looking ahead to what my next adventure might be!
My journey through China and Vietnam was nothing short of amazing. From breathtaking landscapes to rich cultural experiences, every moment was a discovery. In China, I explored ancient wonders and modern marvels, while Vietnam offered me warmth, flavor, and unforgettable trails. Even when my knee gave me trouble, my guide’s kindness turned a challenge into a highlight. And the photos—wow. I came back not just with souvenirs, but with stories, gratitude, and a heart full of adventure." Thank you Tom,Nam and Luan.
This was my first G Adventure and it won't be my last.. It was so nice to have all the planning done for us, especially with all the permits required. The pace of the tour was good, we had time to ourselves and time with the group. The guides were professional and fun and took excellent care of us.
