This tour was part of 10 week trip across South America that will forever be one of the best highlights of my trip. I feel privileged have met some of the best people and had experiences that many can only dream of. With experiences such as exploring the jungle in the Amazon home stay, paragliding and of course some of the best nights out, there was no shortage of new experiences and fun activities. It was of course very sad for this tour to end but I was also relieved I had another G adventures tour booked for the end of my trip.This experience has given me further confidence to continue exploring the world, and I am confident G adventures will be part of my journey as I travel in the futureShow more
