    Found it to be a good mixture of cultural experiences and activities. Particularly liked the smaller group sizes. I wouldn't recommend it to everyone though as I can see some not liking the long days of travel, not that it bothered me any.

    Super South was an amazing adventure! Loved every single second of it. I went alone as a first-time solo traveler and I think it was the best possible way to ease into travelling alone. Our group was small, about 4 people plus our guide, but I felt we made a really good connection and got along really well. The activities that were included were incredibly fun and unforgettable, and our tour guide Pui gave us great suggestions for what we could do in our free time. Had a blast and would 100% do it again. Miss it already!
