Customer reviews & ratings
Absolutely incredible experience and I'm so grateful to have gone. I would travel with G again without a doubt. I think I would have less constructive critic if not on a FAM because I would be able to select my participation level and take respite when needed, because we did need it. Maybe add a day or two to the trip to make it less rushed? But otherwise, AMAZING, Thank you I love everything about the company and its sustainable tourism values. The itineraries are great and the company is continuing to grow and adapt to clients needs and wants.
