I feel that G Adventures exceeded my expectations. I figured the hotels and transport would be taken care of, but I was surprised at everyone's knowledge and eagerness was truly amazing and I would recommend this company and this Journey to other people. I felt I learned a lot, experienced a lot, and saw a lot in a fairly short amount of time.
