Customer reviews & ratings
An amazing experience for my first ever group tour. I liked the balance and pacing of planned activities and optional activities as it allowed some flexibility. Our CEO Roy was fantastic and made me feel at ease throughout the whole trip. I really appreciated the enthusiasm and knowledge from Roy and all the other local guides we encountered. Personally I loved the mix of adrenaline activities and wildlife spotting for this particular trip. Our group was a nice mix of ages and very friendly. This has inspired me to go on more G adventure trips! Value for money, how well ran the tour is and takes the stress out of travel
Ashleigh Oct, 2024 VerifiedOverall it was a fantastic experience. I always make friends on Gadventures tours, including the CEO! The itinerary was well paced and lots of fun. I did think the places to eat were too touristy for my taste, but understand the logistics when we are a big group. Roy was particularly great at helping a difficult group member and keeping the trip fun for everyone else. �Pura vida! The CEO is always fun and knowledgeable, I make friends every trip, and I like that many activities are optional so you can tailor the itinerary to you
