Reviews of our Ecuador Tours for August
Feedback from guests who toured Ecuador during August.
Aly | Traveled in August
Loved the Galapagos!! was a wonderful guide and had so much positive energy, knowledge about the wildlife, and thoughtful suggestions about things to do. The islands were so beautiful, the wildlife was insane (truly a bucket list trip), the hotels were nice, and the food was better than expected as a vegetarian. I feel like the stop in Santa Cruz was a bit rushed with only 1 night - I wish we had more time there to explore, as well as to enjoy the hotel as it was beautiful and we never really had time to enjoy the pool or amenities. Also note that the boat rides between the islands can be a bit tough if you're someone who gets motion sick. Definitely bring meds and you should be good to go. Highly recommend overall and was a trip of a lifetime!

G adventures is at the top of my list now for all future travel. I would have never thought I would have felt comfortable traveling solo until this trip. It has given me the courage and the wings to fly now and go all over the world to the places no one would go with me. I trust G adventures and I look forward to my next adventure which I’m planning now. Thank you for the owners and all the people who carefully create and organize these well planned out experiences. This was a life-changing experience and I’m looking forward to more in the future.

We were very happy overall with the entire trip. Itinerary was wonderful. We enjoyed touring Quito and the surrounding areas with our guide Edison. The Monserrat cruise, the crew and our guide Manny exceeded our expectations. We spotted almost every land and marine animal or bird native to the islands. Puerto Ayora is a lovely Our guide Ruben was so sweet. We loved swimming at Las Grietas. The boat ride to Bartolome Island was long, but we are glad we got to see its volcanic landscape. We did opt out of some afternoon snorkeling sessions on the Monserrat as well as the scheduled trip to Isabela Island today. Being in our 70s, we chose to pace ourselves and keep well rested.

My Gadventures tours to Machu Picchu and the Galapagos Islands was the trip/adventure of a lifetime. I would definately do a Gadventure trip again and am looking at going to Egypt with my husband. I've travelled extensively (packpack trough Australia, SE Asia, Europe; family travel; business travel; we own a home in Barbados and travel frequently). However, I absolutly enjoyed the gadventures trips as the guides on the trips were terrific,, the level of organization was great,, and the opportunties to travel in a small group enabled us to gain a rapport with others from around the world. . I have recommended Gadventures to friends already!

I had an incredible 2 weeks exploring Peru and the Galapagos. The experiences we had are ones that we were only able to do because of G Adventures, especially the trips that included the G-supported communities.
Jacqueline Arpino | Traveled in August
Our trip was amazing. Our guide in Quito was so informative and such a nice person. The cruise was great. We did so much snorkeling and the hikes were perfect. The naturalists on board were incredible, as was the staff. The Galapagos Suites hotel is incredibly charming and we really enjoyed staying there. We left feeling like we saw everything.
