Mikayla W   -  Traveled, October 2023

Well I enjoyed the trip it is very fast paced and I don't think everyone would enjoy that. Not if you really want to explore the places you're visiting.

Sarah M   -  Traveled, September 2023

It takes out some of the pain of planning, but you still have a lot of flexibility in what you do. If you are traveling alone, the group can enhance your trip by being able to do things with people you can bond and talk with throughout the trip.

I felt like the value of the tour was more than worth what I paid for it. I also appreciate how environmentally and socially conscious G Adventures is.

- Inexperienced CEO - Lack of value for money - Low quality accommodation - Would rather get the whole group sick then give people there own room - Putting us on buses instead of trains even though it would take longer to keep costs down - People felt forced to go to ',optional/welcome dinners', which were usually expensive restaurants and receiving nothing back from G - ',30 something', age bracket being quite broad leaving the ages in the group to be 18-38 which obviously created a strong divide in the group - Missing our whole day in Bruggess which we had paid for due to incompetent CEO, again with no apology or compensation from G Adventures.

The hostels are rough and the travel from place to place is exhausting

I did a classic tour (highlights of Sicily) and a 18-39 tour (Rome-Paris), I preferred the Classic tour as it felt more intimate. Although, i had a blast with all four of my tour guides (Matteo, Daya, Andrei and Fabrizio).

Felicity K   -  Traveled, June 2023

I would recommend it to someone who wants to go to many places in a certain amount of time, but will tell them that it is not an all-catered for experience. A lot of people in my group didn't realise that day activities weren't included in the main cost and they had to pay more to do those things.

It was a fantastic way for me to travel. Not only was I able to see new places but I was able to explore and share them with people who I got to know really well and become friends with. The CEOs made it a stress free experience!

Our first tour leader, Barbara, was incredibly outstanding and made the whole trip worth whille. I don't feel I will ever have a guide as fantastic as Barbra. She truly elevated the tour beyond anything anyone had expected.

Kayleigh S   -  Traveled, August 2022

I loved my G Adventures! I love how the tour guides don't have a strict schedule for us. They suggest things to do in each city and if we want to do it she will put it together as a group so that all we have to do is pay. Everything is optional and you can do whatever you want in each city which is nice! the hostels were better than I expected and I loved all the people I met on the trip. I am ready to go on my next trip! I do think that a backup transportation option with specific times and companies for each city should be given to the tour guide ahead of time especially with frequent train delays. We missed a train and were frantic to get to a bus it ended up working out.

Takes all the stress out of having to organise accommodation and transportation yourself, gives you insider knowledge on each city because of the guide
