What travelers are saying

"Thank you for diligently planning and coordinating my travels during a crazy time. I didn't think I would feel comfortable traveling internationally, but after going through it, I'm ready to go on my next trip abroad. The Argentinian side of Patagonia was spectacular and the weather and views to/from Fitz Roy completed my vision of the Patagonian mountains. Our group felt very accomplished. Ushuaia was a completely different environment, reminding me of San Francisco - cooler and with beautiful mountains. The team at Ushuaia (Jorge & Marcella) were super accommodating and they made my excursions more enjoyable. The other group participants were all local Argentinians and made me feel welcomed - I've made new friends along the way. I will definitely recommend Ushuaia to anyone traveling to the region. The hikes were equally challenging and the service they provided was excellent. It was a great way to end the trip! Thank you again for the adventures and I hope to see you again soon."

What travelers are saying

"Youseff our guide was excellent from start to finish and I felt safe on the roads with our driver. You see so much of the real Morocco BUT be prepared for long days on the mini bus, 2 of which were 12 hrs albeit you have plenty stops for drinks, food and toilet. The trip is full on up early every day, arriving at hotels in the early evening to get a quick change and out again . We had a group of 11, very mixed age and from 4 different countries. Hotels were clean and what one would expect from a trip in this price range, all were clean. Marrakesh, Fez hotel and desert camp did not serve alcohol but it could be found in hotel nearby in Fez. Marrakesh main square is amazing so full of life and nice places to eat and drink if you are there longer"

What travelers are saying

"The tour had an excellent itinerary and activities, giving a broad overview of Peru - we loved it. Accommodations (with one exception) were great, and all had an included breakfast buffet. The tour's included activities (e.g. cooking class, pisco tour and tasting, potato park, boat tour of Isla Ballestas) were terrific. Appreciated the two included flights which saved a lot of driving time. Logistics were handled, and everything was smooth and easy (thanks to our CEO, Mary Chu!)."

What travelers are saying

"I can’t say enough good about our trip to Egypt, arranged through Look at Egypt Tours. We felt 100% taken care of through our entire trip. Tarek was our tour leader, Ahmed was our guide in Cairo and Muhammed was our guide through most of Egypt, with the Nile cruise. Given the state of the world right now, I’m so glad that we were able to take this trip of a lifetime several Months before quarantine shut the world down. I look forward to the world getting healthier that we may travel again like this. Loved every minute, we highly recommend Look at Egypt tours!"

What travelers are saying

"I recently returned from the Costa Rican wildlife safari. I was a bit concerned with Covid however every place was extremely clean and had places for you to wash your hands before you even walked in. This was a trip I was actually supposed to go on in 2020 however it was postponed, waiting so long the expectations were high. I was definitely not disappointed! Patricia our guide was absolutely wonderful, extremely knowledgeable and cater to our every need. I would highly recommend this vacation. Also everyone that I met in the community was extremely gracious and kind. The majority of these people work on tourism and unfortunately in the last year have not had any. Booking this trip would not only be an amazing adventure for you but it would also be amazing for the people in the community"

"The Ionian Cruise was a ton of relaxation and very enjoyable. The only issue had with it is the lack of diversity at the events. But other than that it was an awesome time and I'll recommend the Ionian Cruise to all of my friend"
