Overall, I was truly impressed by how earth and human conscious G Adventures is. This unique focus really sets your program apart from others and makes me proud to support you now and in the future. I had the pleasure of joining my first G adventure group, accompanied by such a wonderful group of people and an excellent CEO Min and incredible local guides: Jill, Addi and Seng. Earth and human-centered tourism are often afterthoughts, so it was a pleasant surprise to see these values woven seamlessly throughout the trip, from the villages we visited to the local restaurants we supported. This thoughtful approach made the experience not only enjoyable but also deeply meaningful.
Amazing, simply amazing. Kakada made the tour, we are so lucky to have been on this tour with g adventures and supported with such a wonderful CEO. I felt the passion that he has in what he does.
Journeys: Iconic Thailand was a fabulous experience!!! We had the most wonderful tour guide (shout out to Natthanan Chai Yenklom--the very best!!!!) who looked after every detail and made the experience comfortable and enjoyable for each person on the trip. I loved the varied activities--the home visit and cooking class in Chiang Mai; Ko Klang Island and Hong Island in Southern Thailand; and the amazing temples in Bangkok were particular highlights for me on the trip. I would do another National Geographic Journeys/G Adventures tour in the future!
Excellent. I went looking for an adventure & I found it. I was humbled by the experience & I have a greater appreciation for what is most important in life - that's happiness. Thailand is truly magical & I'll be definitely going back one day.
We had a fabulous couple of weeks in Thailand with Explore. The tour visited most of the places we had hoped to go to independently but cut out all the stress of trying to organise it. There was enough unstructured free time to do a few little tours of our own. Our tour guide Super Jeff was fantastic and the whole group were really sad to say goodbye to him at the end. Lots of fun opportunities to travel on or jump into water. Other members of group were interesting and fun. Lots of great food. The two night train trips were surprisingly comfortable and easy. My family loved the Thai boxing morning. Good mix of culture, adventure, beach. The only disappointment was the day boat trip to Ang Thong marine reserve - very busy and touristy, long time on big boat, food not great and the snorkelling was almost non-existent. We wished we'd taken the day off on our own to spend more time on the beach or take a proper snorkelling tour.
Wow!
This trip was just incredible.Temples,Buddhas,meeting elephants,travelling on the Death railway ,swimming in the river Kwai and so much more. If you want to learn about the history and culture of this beautiful country then this is the trip for you.
Our guide Wit was absolutely outstanding and he made the trip so special.
This was our first trip with Explore and we will definitely be booking another.
I truly enjoyed my experience with GAdventures. The SouthEast Asia encompassed tour was a great way to see the highlights of 4 different countries. It was a great opportunity to truly experience each culture and give back to the communities. The tour leader really makes the experience as positive as it was. It wouldn’t be the same without Chen!
