I was primarily interested in the Inka Trail and Machu Pichu but the rain forest and Lake Titicaca were brilliant. Three holidays in one.

Trekking-intense journey for landscape lovers! Ushuaia is just the perfect spot to finish the trip, relaxing and beautiful at once. Buenos Aires however doesn't fit into the experience because there was no program!

Milagros and Marcela helped me plan a fantastic 10-day Essential Of Patagonia trip (mostly Argentina and 1 leg in Chile) and made the trip very smooth and easy to customize based on my preferences. For first-timers to the region, i would highly-recommend utilizing them as they are very knowledgeable and responsive. The Laguna de los Tres, Perito Moreno glacier, and the Torres del Paine Mirador hikes were sublime and unforgettable!! I would opt for "hard" hikes if possible to see the most, and try it out at least, and if not you can always tell your guide that it is too difficult and they will modify the path during the trek.

I can't recommend this tour enough. Well organized, amazing experience. Hiking was beautiful and the porters and staff were so hard working, they carried everything, set-up camp for us every day/night and allowed guests to immerse in the magic of the Incan culture and natural beauty unencumbered. Also - the food, which was cooked fresh every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner was delicious, healthy and made with care.

I met some of the best characters on this group tour, friends for life and had some of the experiences and memories that will live with me forever. The 65 day tour of South America is fast moving and packs so much in. The CEOs from G are the best and are always there to take care of you and the rest of the group, all you have to do is turn up and enjoy your trip

The Galapagos Islands—nature’s living laboratory—take center stage on the "Galapagos Experience" adventure trip. Over seven days, you’ll follow Darwin’s trail across San Cristobal, Santa Cruz, and Isabela islands, guided by expert naturalists who bring the islands’ evolutionary wonders to life. Dive into a moderate activity level, ideal for travelers eager to snorkel with playful sea lions, trek volcanic craters, and observe giant tortoises in their natural habitat. The itinerary includes immersive wildlife activities alongside ample free time, so you can choose between relaxation and adventure each day. A major USP of this trip package is the land-based approach—accommodations on the islands mean you won’t be confined to a cruise, giving you flexibility and a more intimate connection with local communities and landscapes. For those who dream of seeing the Galapagos’ legendary creatures up close, this tour makes it both accessible and unforgettable.
