Well organized, enjoyable tour. Mexico City is worth visiting; lots of things to see, lots of history, lots of great restaurants. We went during World Cup so paid a surcharge which we thought shoukd have been part of the advertised price since it was known well in advance. Our hotel was disappointing in the beginning but we were upgraded into a larger and better room thanks to the work of our assigned customer service agent. In the future I would insist on knowing what hotel was assigned to us before committing to the tour.Show more

I decided to do my first solo trip to the amazon rainforest and I am so glad I went there! Nicole who organised my trip did put my mind at rest as it was my first time away alone and I hadn't done anything quite as adventurous as that. She did help me throughout just checking in on me and she booked my transfers fir me, all pickups were there waiting for me and they were so nice and friendly that you can see everyone has pride in their jobs! It was honestly made so easy and that just made it special! The amazon jungle gave me a feeling of peace that I have not experienced before! My guide there was really excellent, so knowledgeable and can spot animals from a long distance. All the staff at the yasuni village really helps you to have a great time and they keep everything immaculate. Thankyou to all the staff involved in my trip for making it actually the best experience! There is so many animals to see at this part of the amazon, it is voted number one for bio diversity in the amazon and the world. The food was so nice and my room was beautiful! I saw so many animals, this trip was so worth it! It's a 10/10 from me.Show more

You shud have more control or awareness of the local reps in the various countries and also the situation in each country pertains local travel as some of these are very challenging and dangerous. Especially for a young lady or woman! 3am on some dark and dangerous roads for many hours in the dark and foreign countries especially on very wholey and very rough roads is not acceptable. Consider local trains or flights instead!Show more
