Our Peru and Inca Trail trip with GAdventures was outstanding. This was our 7th adventure with G and I cannot imagine traveling any other way. G takes us off the beaten track, tests our limits, challenges our assumptions, teaches us local culture and customs, and introduces us to fabulous fellow travellers and local guides (CEOs). The G for Good and Planetaria initiatives are always heartwarming, and the opportunity to homestay is unique and personal. Thanks again, until next time? Tamara S. Calgary, Alberta Canada 🇨🇦Show more
