The trip was lovely. I was disappointed in Edinburgh when we were taken to an Italian restaurant for dinner. I expected a nice Scottish meal. I would have liked to have spent another day in Scotland. Our tour guide, Cathall, was wonderful and knowledgeable. I really liked...

Our second Go Ahead tour experience and first time traveling to Portugal. A perfect September, tour guide Elyseo and driver 'Captain Pedru' -- all of which made this a wonderful adventure. From Porto in the north, Lisbon, and the Algarve in the south, this food and 'oh so much...

I cannot say enough words to describe how great of a tour guide Kong is. He is extremely knowledgeable, personable, caring and funny. He accommodated each of us individually and held us together like family. With an already packed itinerary, Kong worked in several additional...

This tour was fantastic! I went alone and found that I was the only person by myself. But, I quickly made friends and had a wonderful time seeing Italy! We kept busy and there was only a few moments to be on our own (because I did all but one of the add ons). I realize that...

Amazing trip, Alonso was so knowledgeable. That being said, 30 women and 3 with major mobility issues, nothing started on time. I will go back to Costa Rica in a Heart beat. Maybe with a tour group that vets their participants better.

This was by far my best tour ever. Absolutely the most beautiful country, with the kindest people. I highly recommend this tour. The tour director was phenomenal and added so many wonderful touches.

This trip was wonderful . Our tour guides, Solomon and Anthony were fantastic. They explained the entire trip with great details and knowledge . The stories Anthony told us about the animals made them easy to remember. They were very attentive to all of needs.

This was my first trip to Costa Rica and it was a fantastic trip; super fun, exciting, educational, everything I hoped for and more. Volcanoes at 11,000 feet above the clouds, breathtaking views, mischievous monkeys, slow motion sloths, huge iguanas, 27 foot crocodiles,...

All-in-all an incredible journey
Iceland: The Golden Circle & Ring Road →
“Our tour has become a favorite for me. I credit our tour guide (Triggvi) with his incredible ability to educate and inform as we went. (Iceland has such history that I was unaware of, and I learned so much.) In addition, the amazing sights of volcanos, waterfalls, & glaciers, with all that formed around and because of them, is an experience I am so appreciative of having. Loved seeing the many horses and sheep, tasting good food, learning about Icelands folklore, and meeting nice people. Our bus driver was also a good part of my experience and was very much appreciated as well. Shout out to Steiny! The Northern Lights were amazing to see. We were fortunate to have perfect conditions and fellow travelers who stayed up watching and alerting the rest of us. All-in-all an incredible journey.”

Must do, must go trip!
“Although I had a few mishaps on the trip, I had someone to guide me the whole way. Being in a foreign country for the first time when things don’t go as planned can be very scary. After things settled down for us, we were able to enjoy new friends and experiences. Must do, must go trip!”
