I’ve travelled with three different companies before and Geckos were easily the best! If you’re after authentic, local experiences, and enjoy local transport and being immersed in local culture you need to consider Geckos! The Peru highlights tour was amazing! Aside from the iconic Machu Picchu experience, there were so many other inclusions and activities making this tour great value for money and highly enjoyable. I loved that some of the activities were things I wouldn’t have thought to do on my own - but am so glad I did them (eg the Home Stay and time in the Amazon)! Overall I can’t fault this tour!
Geckos through Central America gave you a lot of time to yourself and time to explore the things you wanted to see. There were limited activities however with the right tour guide you could be given a whole list of things to do on a day at a relatively low cost. While having to use public transport at some times wasn’t ideal it was safe and gave time to look at how the locals do it. The private transport was great, big, clean buses with enough room to spread out over the long drives.
I had an amazing time traveling with Geckos Adventures! The only reason I won’t be traveling with them again is that I’m already 29. We got to see so much incredible wild life, from swimming with juvenile sea lions, sea turtles and sharks to walking along side giant tortoises and marine iguanas. I also love that Geckos does land based tours instead of cruise ships, as we really got a feel for the island culture and had a lot more chance to interact with locals. The only drawback was that many excursions weren’t included, but they were worth the additional price and our guide was knowledgeable about other amazing things to do if you didn’t want to pay more. I highly recommend the Galapagos trip with Geckos Adventures.
Could not recommend highly enough the tours through Vietnam.. the local guides are a real point of difference! They make a good mix of fun, culture and history!
