This was one of the greatest experiences of my life. G Adventures made exploration easy by removing any hassle or worry from the equation. We were also fortunate to have a great group and the best CEO.
Best trip I‘ve ever had! In a country I would have probably struggeled travelling on my own, I had the best CEO I could imagine. She was so helpful 24/7 and it was so much fun to learn from her about her country. The destinations were well choosen and it was a prefect mixture of nature and vibrant cities!!!
We had a fantastic driver who took us to the places we wanted to visit. He was very accommodating and was always ready for us with ice cold water! He directed us to the local guides at each site and his choices were always perfect. One member of our small group (4) had a problem walking and the driver was sure to take that into consideration at every stop. The price was more than reasonable.
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.

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!
