It was good, good balance of culture and nature. Accomodation could have been better.

A perfect way to be introduced to India. I would also like to add that Bruno is an exceptional ambassador for G Adventures - he turned a good experience into an exceptional experience.

I loved every second of this trip - amazing places, wonderful food and fantastic people. Our CEO, Bruno, was so enthusiastic and gave me the perfect introduction to his beautiful country. I can't wait to go back.

Great catch of South India.
Excellent
My South India trip with G Adventures exceeded my expectations. Given the price I paid I didn?t expect the accommodation to be as good as it was (with one exception). And our CEO Sanna was outstanding, something which really made the trip for me. I will book with G Adventures again and will recommend them to friends
