We cannot thank you enough for your help, patience, encouragement and professionalism in getting us ready for the trip of a lifetime! We loved it and can't say enough good things... Paco was tremendous as were the porters - "World Class Athletes"! Glad we had your tip guidelines, but we far exceeded those when we saw how hard they work. What wonderful sights, people and experiences. Thanks again for being such a great help... Keep making people's dreams come true....

It was wonderful. I had very high expectations prior to the trip, and I am happy to say that all of my expectations were exceeded. The staff, accommodations, and food at the camp were fantastic. The wildlife was amazing. We saw the "big five" and were fortunate to experience the great migration of wilder beast and zebras into the park.
Thank you for helping with the arrangements!

We had a wonderful time and was probably one of the best trips we have ever taken.
The people were amazing! My wife and I have been to several places around the world and we can honestly say our tour guide, Tashi Dorji, was by far the best tour guide we have ever had. On our second day we had "traveler's sickness" and was confined to our room for almost a day. Tashi tended to us like we were in a hospital. He went into town and got us banana's and drinks to get rehydrate us.
The destinations that we went to were perfect for the 7 days we were there. I would not have changed anything. The festival was just amazing.

Galapagos/Ecuador
The Galapagos is best experienced aboard a larger boat (100-person), and while I took the three night version I recommend the four- or seven-night. Of course, the three night/four day left me wanting more which is the best sign of a great vacation. While you may think a larger boat creates crowded situations with lines and congestion, this was not the case at all. The boat is organized, and there are two trips a day to the islands providing extensive time viewing the animals and feeling Darwinesque. Yes, the blue footed boobies do have blue feet, and yes, the iguanas do actually swim. Words do not describe the experience, and pictures do the booby’s feet an injustice. Do not leave this earth without the experience!

We had an incredible trip and have only positive things to say... We couldn't believe how close we got to the whales - both in our kayaks and on shore. The sea lions were another highlight, we felt like we had a bunch of friends following us. The trekking was an added bonus, we didn't realize there would be so much of it and that it would be so beautiful. We can't say enough about Pablo and Sofia! He was so knowledgeable in history, marine life, the peninsula and provided so many interesting facts. He was also a pleasure to travel with and as a guide. His ability to whip up delicious meals with only 2 pans and a camp stove was incredible. He was also very proficient in packing 5 days worth of supplies in 4 kayaks - with room to spare.
From the time that Sofia picked us up at the Trelew airport to the time that Pablo dropped us off ..., we felt like we were in very good hands and that we were among friends. Pablo and Sofia truly made it a very special experience and a trip of a lifetime.

Just back from a very successful trip to Rwanda. What a stunning country, beautiful people and of course the gorillas! We visited Hirwa group which included a 2 day old baby. I'd have to say this will be in the top 5 experiences of a lifetime.

The Mountains were amazing – better than expected. Portions of it felt like a mix of Corsica and Nepal. The 4 day extension is definitely worth it (the Toubkal can be done in 2 straight from Imlil but it’s much better to take 4 days and do it right). Lots of time going thru original Berber villages, great landscapes, a surprising luxury lodge the first night, good guide, good cook, all in all very satisfied...
I have to thank Tilden for his precious series of advice on Morocco. It’s obvious he knows this country really well and was able to guide us properly.
