Truly unforgettable experience, and I can totally see why so many people on the tour had used G Adventures before. I will certainly be booking another one!
We’re both in our 60s and loved the concept of seeing iconic cities in one tour. Highlights for us were Cape Town and Agra, very well organized with knowledgeable guides. The early morning flights and long transfers were tiring, and there wasn’t much time to unpack before moving again. That said, we met lovely people and learned so much. We just wish we had more time in Singapore. They handled logistics impressively for such a big tour. Would recommend for flexible, energetic travelers.

Loved it all. The usual mix of guided tours and free time, with excellent hotels and a good crowd on the bus. Of course in any country there is so much to see and one tour cannot see it all but this was certainly a great effort at experiencing as much as possible within my time and budget constraints.
Great introduction to Japan, to city life (Tokyo and Kyoto) and the country (snow monkeys were a highlight as was the homestay in Hagi). Mack is the most diligent, thoughtful tour guide I have come across, and I would thoroughly recommend this trip
