We spent 2 weeks (April 2023) of dreams with the route offered by this travel specialist in southern Ethiopia.
Accompanied by an excellent driver with a very comfortable 4x4 car and a guide fluent in English and French and rich in very broad knowledge of his country, its history, the many different tribes, the fauna, religions, different climates, climate, a real walking bible! We shared 10 days with these two very nice people and the many exchanges were friendly. A delight.
We particularly liked the visits to the different tribes (Dorze, Mursi, Karo, Arbore, Hamer, Sidama and others) where we could share the preparation and their meal, the coffee ceremonies and even their dances.
The different lodges for the night were all of very good quality and we really regret that actually only few tourists choose to travel through this beautiful country and its many ethnic groups so different and happy to share their daily life.
Betty and Yaye prepared our journeys over 10 days and we had only very good surprises, everything far exceeded our initial expectations.
Thanks again to Hailu and Fisch for allowing us to find ourselves in a different world, poor but very humble and welcoming.

Itinerary was fascinating, food and cultural experiences were wonderful, all local people interactions were friendly and hospitable, tour leader was excellent, Morocco is a wonderful country. A bit too much windshield time between sites but this can't be avoided. The hotels, riads, and gites were fun and authentic. Loved this trip.
This tour is not for the faint of heart, but it is one of the most rewarding experiences I?ve ever undertaken. The 5 day route permits you to visit waterfalls and other natural beauties in the Sierra Nevada mountain range. The staff were absolutely epic as well! The food brilliant. It was actually a true once in a lifetime experience.
While Colombia has a rep for being unsafe, it has climbed the ladder of worthwhile travel destinations for a reason. Not only is it amazing to learn about and see the transformation that the country has gone through within the last 20 years, the diverse landscape is worth traveling for. From growing hubs like Medellin, to rainforest adventures in Minca (amazing jungle rave) and Carribean vibes on isla grande, I enjoyed sunset kayaking, racing through the rainforest on motor taxis and the cute old towns of guatape and Cartagena! Caro was really helpful and lovely.

My overall experience on this tour was absolutely amazing, and I highly recommend it. The guide Abdul, the driver Arabic, and the group truly made the trip exceptional. I would even consider this one of the best trips I?ve ever taken.
That said, my only recommendation is to improve the accommodations. The hotel in Fez was very disappointing, and the location of the hotel in Marrakech could be better. Including a riad experience would significantly enhance the overall experience.
It was great to experience so many varied and different things, from ancient cities to hot air balloon rides to hammam treatments. We were busy but also had some free time. Mustafa was the perfect tour leader, a perfectionist yet approachable

I had a great time traveling with G Adventures. The small group experience is great. We start out as strangers and end up as friends. I like leaving the driving and organizing to someone else. It works for me!
