    15day National Geographic Inca Explorer The tour had an excellent itinerary and activities, giving a broad overview of Peru - we loved it. Accommodations (with one exception) were great, and all had an included breakfast buffet. The tour's included activities (e.g. cooking class, pisco tour and tasting, potato park, boat tour of Isla Ballestas) were terrific. Appreciated the two included flights which saved a lot of driving time. Logistics were handled, and everything was smooth and easy (thanks to our CEO, Mary Chu!).

    Our lead guide and assistant guide was exceptional and made the Inca trail even better than we had imagine. Porters were all amazing and friendly. The food was incredible and I did not expect the great cuisines provided to us each day.

    This was the best tour I have ever done! Thanks to G Adventures we were able to meet local communities in Peru, something we wouldn't have been able to organize ourselves. Doing the Inca trail was a fantastic experience - we couldn't have wished for a better guide (Enrique) or a better organization! Thank you G Adventures and special thanks to all the hard working porters!

    Got lucky and met the nicest group of people! The guides were all excellent at their job, knowledgeable and very friendly. One small downside was the organisation. Some guides would tell us, oh the guide tomorrow will let you know the details. However when the following day came, the guide would tell us oh your guide yesterday should have explained all the details. Its only a minor thing but organisation and communication could have been better. But a great experience overall and j would be happy to travel with G Adventures again!
