My G Adventures tour was incredible. I can?t recommend it enough. I was worried with it being my first solo group tour. But the trip was planned so well and I could completely relax and not have to think or plan much. I will definitely be doing more tours.
Sights, sounds, places, activities, events, food: everything on the agenda offer us an opportunity to truly experience the countries and cultures we visited.
I have just returned from this wonderful adventure and wish it hadn't ended. The sights, sounds and colours will stay with me for ever and I would like to go back to India and Nepal again one day.

One of the best things Ive done as a solo traveller. Our tour guide Caro was the best and we had an unforgettable time! Cant wait to book another one soon!
During July 2019 I visited the Maldives as a solo traveler. The Island Hopper tour was perfect for my intent to experience the real flavor/culture/people of the country and not the artificial environment of resorts. I arrived and was met by Shaffaf who was the perfect guide/host to hotels, ferries, experiences across 5 islands. I love Maldive island life--even more so after the busy arrival city of Male. I especially love the FREEDOM to set my own itinerary on each island after local representatives warmly welcomed me at each island ferry and presented the options of their island. Diving, snorkeling, fishing, kayaking, visiting the homes of locals, beach time and just sharing hours of lazy conversation with the locals was priceless. After returning to the USA, my heart is still in The Maldives!!
