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.
