This journey felt significantly longer than its actual duration—in the best possible way! I thoroughly enjoyed every moment, appreciating both the wonderful group and the breathtaking landscapes of Patagonia. What I valued most was the ability to fully embrace the experience without the need for planning or decision-making. Every detail was so well taken care of that I could completely relax and immerse myself in the beauty of Patagonia without any concerns.
The overall experience was outstanding. Patagonia is a wonderful destination, one of the last wildernesses in the world and a place to be treasured. We really enjoyed the hikes and would have been happy to do more. Tash the CEO and her colleagues were really friendly, helpful and passionate about Patagonia. Tash had excellent knowledgable about nature, flora, fauna and the areas we visited. The glaciers were breathtaking and the accommodation was excellent, especially Estancia Cristina, the remoteness was just what we needed, to be away from the frenetic ways of modern life for a while. The tour was well organised and communication was excellent. Would definitely recommend G Adventures for this type of holiday
Perfection. I have nothing to complain about. And it was truly the trip of a lifetime. I’ve wanted to visit Peru since I was 3 years old watching Jacque Cousteau (I’m 59 now) and it was every bit as magical, intriguing, awe inspiring, and beautiful as I had hoped.

Could not recommend this trip more strongly—Oswaldo was a phenomenal guide, and we got to see so many different animals and island landscapes. While I would have loved to stay for a longer tour, 5 days and 4 nights on the boat allowed us to see all of the highlights of the Galapagos. The crew was excellent, my travel group was so much fun, and everything we saw and did was absolutely incredible. Absolute 10/10 trip!!
Shared more about this previously :) But I also wanted to add that for me, the highlight of the trip was our visit to the Parque de la Papa. This was such a special opportunity and the work G Adventures does for local communities is admirable.
The comfortable camping experience on the Inca Trail was a dream come true. For a trail that is legendary for being quite crowded, the itinerary we followed allowed us to experience the trail almost entirely on our own. It was amazing. Moreover, the camping experience felt like glamping with better food on the trail than the restaurants we went to as a group.
This was an amazing experience, and a once in a lifetime adventure that I will treasure. This is our first tour with G Adventures and has led an extremely positive impression - so much so that we have already started looking at other tours, and I have recommended G to everyone we know who are interested in hiking the Inca Trail!
Fabulous! We appreciated the support pre-trip as well, with arranging last minute airport transport and an extra night stay in Quito. Staff were helpful and professional. We loved the Galapagos and appreciate this trip so much!
My overall experience on this trip was absolutely unforgettable. The locations were stunning, and the people of Peru were incredibly warm and welcoming. I always felt safe exploring both Cusco and Lima, which made the trip even more enjoyable.
The four-day hike to Machu Picchu was truly amazing, and the final tour of Machu Picchu (Circuito 2), led by David, was a definite highlight. The views were simply breathtaking—an experience I’ll never forget!
