    Sally

    Asked on June 11th, 2025

    Was wondering since usually people join and leave throughout the tour if there is like a 2-3 week part of the tour my friend could book onto as he can't get the 65 days off for the full tour.

    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperator•Written June 2025

      The 65-day Great South America Journey is indeed divided into shorter tour segments, that can be booked as a stand alone tour as well.

      Sally

      Traveler•Written June 2025

      If the one I book goes on sale, am I able to switch to that price. Or once you've booked you're looked in at said price?

    • G AdventuresOperator•Written June 2025

      Discounts are only honoured if the booking is confirmed during the period the trip is promotion. A benefit to booking early is to not only guarantee your spot on the tour, but to also allow you to look into the best flight options available. With any of our tours, we will simply honour the price in which you booked. This not only applies to the tour price decreasing but increasing as well. It is our policy that once the booking has been confirmed, we are unable to add any future promotional codes.
