Everything from booking through the trip was fantastic! For starters, AJ was accommodating in that they allowed the trip to proceed with only one person - it makes it difficult for those solos at times when we don’t at least have a second person - I am super grateful. Next, my guide, Rafael, was second to none. I asked a ton of questions about everything and he was able and willing to answer anything. He also added what I thought were special touches tailored to what I like during the trip - another benefit of solo travel! Finally, the trip itself was amazing- perfect itinerary with lots of activity and variety in the scenery and lodgings. I would highly recommend!!Show more

Where to begin….this 14-day Ecuador/Amazon/Galapagos trip was AMAZING and exceeded our expectations. An extremely professional company from the minute we inquired about this Active tour, adding a 2 day extension to our Galapagos portion and bringing us back to Quito, we can’t say enough great things about Diego who organized the tour for us. We booked last minute Dec 2, 2024 and decided to make it a 3 week trip with exploring Mindo cloud forest on our own (which we also highly recommend) and left Canada on Dec 31st! Jorge, our amazing and professional, friendly guide took us on a 5 day Ecuador mainland loop that included mountain biking in Banos, river rafting in the Amazon (super spectacular) and many a hike along the way. Jorge’s knowledge about absolutely everything brought new knowledge to us about beautiful Ecuador. We always felt safe and cared for. Jorge became a friend who we hope to see again in the future. When it came to our departure from Quito to Galapagos, Milton made sure we passed through the gates at the airport with all the Galapagos requirements and all went as smooth as can be. When we landed in San Cristobal we were met by our beautiful, intelligent and amazing Indira! AJ sure knows how to pick their guides…as all of them become our friends and family so quickly. Highlights were plentiful: Kicker Rock snorkelling with hammerheads, rays, sea turtles; sea lions now have a special place with us; Isabela Isl with it’s Sierra Negra crater hike; biking to Wall of Tears and seeing the huge tortoises in the wild; Santa Cruz’s Tortuga Bay - stunning! El Chato tortoise reserve….can’t fit it all in this space. The accommodations and food were all very good as well. Thank you, AJ, for giving us the time of our lives. We will be back for sure!Show more
