This was our second Nat Geo tour experience and we loved them both. Great pick of scenic and cultural experiences, great guides and well located accommodations. This tour of New Zealand was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Raise a margarita to the beauty and culture of Mexico on this adventure. Discover Maya history at the incredible Chichen Itza ruins and visit Indigenous communities near the charming San Cristobal de las Casas. Indulge in a traditional pibil feast (slow roasted pork) with a Maya family and learn about Zapotec culture over lunch in a local home. Stroll the charming streets of Merida, be charmed by the alebrijes of Oaxaca and chill out on the beaches of Playa del Carmen. From museums and ruins to canyons and waterfalls, this journey will give you a taste of Mexico’s best.
I have been dreaming of traveling to Turkey for a long time. I had initially booked this tour in 2020 and clearly it had to be cancelled. Five years later, my expectations were exceeded by this tour. The rich history, culture, the food and the beautiful people of Turkey— this is a trip not to be missed!
There’s a reason this trip was the one that started it all and remains one of the most popular. On this 13-day adventure, you'll discover Northern Thailand, experience the metropolis of bustling Bangkok, trek among the hillside villages, drift down the River Kwai in Kanchanaburi, see the historic temples of the Siam Kingdom and venture into Golden Triangle. With unbeatable hospitality, bustling local markets, serene mountains and rivers and plenty chance to make your own discoveries, come along and see why this trip was, and still is, a benchmark for all our adventures.
This was a great trip, and I would recommend it.
The hotels were all fine, the one night camping less so - very cold and the set-up was VERY basic (a kilometer away from a luxury resort!) - but the night sky in the desert was amazing.
The trip notes are not totally accurate/informative though - there is a lot more travelling than they suggest and a lot of it is in 4-wheel drive vehicles over rough ground. If you don't like heights, beware!
Be prepared for squat toilets in quite a lot of places :-/
All in all it was a good trip, well managed and very interesting.
Itinerary was fascinating, food and cultural experiences were wonderful, all local people interactions were friendly and hospitable, tour leader was excellent, Morocco is a wonderful country. A bit too much windshield time between sites but this can't be avoided. The hotels, riads, and gites were fun and authentic. Loved this trip.
In depth exploration of Turkey from BCE to now. I now have a greater appreciation of its position within history and its influence globally. Would certainly recommend G Adventures as an introduction to this fascinating country
I had a wonderful time traveling with G to Colombia. The CEOs were wonderful, and G always seems to attract likeminded travellers who I thoroughly enjoy my time with. As a 30-something year old woman, I completely recommend taking a Classic tour, as there is a wonderful mix of age ranges that add so much character to the tour. The tour to Colombia included a great mix of smaller towns and larger cities, and I felt the pacing was perfect. While the accommodations could be improved, I had such a wonderful time, and would highly recommend the tour to others.
Another trip is coming to an end. Once again, I was able to enjoy an unforgettable time and get to know a country I'd never known before, but have now come to appreciate. TruTravels is also extremely fortunate to be able to regularly assemble such a great group. Isa always kept an eye on things and was always able to provide us with tips and tricks to ensure unforgettable experiences. Everything was excellently organized, and nothing stood in the way of a fantastic time. I'm delighted to have been part of this tour.

It was great to experience so many varied and different things, from ancient cities to hot air balloon rides to hammam treatments. We were busy but also had some free time. Mustafa was the perfect tour leader, a perfectionist yet approachable
