My experience with G Adventures was absolutely incredible. This was my first time travelling and I couldn?t have asked for a better way to do it. As a female solo traveller, I found that G Adventures was a great way to travel while creating friendships and feeling safe. The CEOs are absolutely phenomenal and add so much value to travelling, especially if you don?t know too much about the destinations you?re travelling to. Everything is so well organised and coordinated. Can?t wait for my next G trip.

I joined this tour as an 18 year old first time solo traveller, scared and excited to travel with strangers. To put it simply, it exceeded all my expectations. The places I’ve been, the things I’ve seen and the people I’ve met put my experience over the top. Thank you G Adventures!
What can you do in a month? Oh you know, just see some of the absolute best parts of Europe on a 30-day, hostel-based adventure from Amsterdam to Corfu, that’s all. Sound good to you? Then let’s get going. On the first leg of your trip, you’ll visit Berlin before heading to Prague, Vienna, and Salzburg, soaking up art, architecture, and the best views ever along the way. Next up, the Alps! Experience the colourful charm of Innsbruck and the baffling beauty of Lake Misurina, then venture further into Italy for flavour-filled days in Rome, Florence, and Tuscany. Croatia comes after, including a stop in Dubrovnik (the real-life King’s Landing) before road tripping into Montenegro and Albania for a tour of a medieval fortress and beachfront hangouts. Finally, catch the ferry to Corfu for one epic final day.
Exciting, exhilirating, sooo much history....we had fun and made some really good lifetime friends. We are the type to be up for early breakfast and 'go go go' all day to return after a late supper feeling exhausted but happy. Thank you G.
I would highly recommend G Adventures for your next trip if you're looking to meet great people and see some cool places and don't want to worry about planning. I will definitely be doing another trip in the near future!
