The hiking experience was perfect for me. The vehicles and transportation were very adequate. The camping experience was not great but accommodated the type of tour well. The seriously failing sleeping pads provided were a letdown commented on by everyone that made us sleep and wake up on the hard ground in the morning along with cheap tarps that were seriously frayed with holes in them... very poor to present them to your guests to use

Another amazing G tour. I will continue using G and recommend them to others. No complaints here - except for the start of the tour. I was not aware it did not start at the Nugget so turned up to the wrong location. Even the last email I received 1 week to the tour commencing, stated it started at the Nugget. I understand if I had the G app I would have been aware of this change. I will download the app for future. And as I only had wifi, I was unable to make immediate contact with G.
