Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Dorms were tidy and the common areas were where the group actually gelled. The lead was calm and knew when to slow the group down. Would book with them again.

Hotels were a step below what I expected for the price. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones.

Appreciate the honest feedback; we're looking at the pacing on that section.

Andes & Caribbean done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones. Would book with them again.

Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. Would send friends their way.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude. Solid operator.
