I would say that this was the trip of a lifetime! So much was packed into 11days. You are truly immersed in the culture of Japan. I felt emotional when I left because I had just shared this amazing adventure with all these people that I didn’t know, but then got to know. Noriko, again was absolutely exceptional.!!

I recommend everyone to try the Solo-ish tour with G Adventures at least once. My experience in Morocco was entirely positive and left me with incredible memories. The tour is well-structured and allows you to see the main attractions with highly knowledgeable and helpful guides. I also appreciated the hotels, the choice of restaurants, and the activities that allowed me to fully understand Moroccan culture. And finally, the bonds that were created with the group were truly special and unforgettable.

Ireland Family Journey: Castles, Folklore & Gaelic Traditions

(6 reviews )

No booking fees

As a parent, I look at traveling right now through the lens of my child. What will she enjoy? As if she is having fun, most likely, I will too. This adveture, had the right mix of scheuduled activities, downtime, movement, and experiences. My 12 year old loved the time that she spent on the tour and fell in love with Ireland. She enjoyed playing Gaelic Games, hurling, and learning Irish social dancing. She is still talking about the jail at Spike Island and the history of the Island. She loved hearing about the fairies and other Irish lore. The tour guides didn't just recite the facts to her, they told the stories that make up Ireland and brought it to life for her. She left the trip with memories for a lifetime and came home excited to share her adventures with her family. Less than 24 hours after the trip, she is excited to tell her dad that G Adventures goes Antarctica and and that we should start planning.

An awesome vacation that I waited decades to experience. G Adventures Nat Geo Journeys did not disappoint. Loved visiting the yak herder's family, meeting the camel herder and his family, and having lunch in the ger of the lovely retired nurse living on thr outskirts of Ulanbataar. So blessed to have the experience of being invited inside their ger.
