Ticked all the boxes for me. Adventure, activities, culture, rest and relaxation.

Excellent mix of different activities
Trip was exactly as described and expected. We enjoyed it immensely!
There are many positives. As positive feedback I would rather: 1. not have to budget and pull my wallet out for all the tiny charges. I'm on vacation. If I want to worry about the niggly things, I will travel on my own. I resent having to pull my wallet o
I really enjoyed the trip, it's pace and variety. There was too many nights on Caulker and not enough on Hopkins/elsewhere. I already talked to that. I personally ha...
Great itinerary Great CEO. Great group.
We enjoyed it. Some of the accommodations were lacking. In particular Jungle Jeanies in Hopkins was barely acceptable. It would have been nice if the drumming had be...

broad choice of elective activities and a very competent ceo.
A great variety of activities was the key to our enjoyment. However, one nagging negative was the number of times tipping was necessary. Often members of our group h...
I have been on 2 g adventure tours now and both were great. The guides were spot on and friendly. Tours were efficient and well planned . A great experience!
It was great, from the friends we made a to the sights we took in. All wonderful.
This is my 3rd G Adventure trip in 3 years. I love the relaxed, yet adventurous type of travel G Adventure offer. It's perfect for my lifestyle?..
Another excellent G Adventure trip, thank you :)
The tour had a lot of different experiences and lots of things to do. I don't think if i had travelled to the country on my own i would have been exposed to the types of things we did. I liked how there were different choices in the given area and our gui

Overall my wife and I had an exceptional experience. One of the primary reasons we decided to go with G Adventures was to have the opportunity to undertake a more cultural and local tour. This was definitely achieved on this trip through our Chief Experie

We had a great time. Our Belize/Tikal Adventure was a well-balanced mix of activities and flexible options.
It was one of the best holidays I've ever had, and much needs to be attribut...
It was worry free travelling.
Awesome! An adventure to undertake but be sure you are in a canoe with a guide!
The organization is well defined, uses local people and goes to a variety of areas. There is something for everyone

I feel the tours are very varied, there are a lot of different tour options available with G Adventures and the price is reasonable.
A very enjoyable insight into Belize.
I had a fantastic time. There were people with a variety of levels of fitness and desire for group activity on the trip and our CEO was able to accomodate everyone's needs and preferences.
It was a complete break from the everyday. I returned refreshed, invigorate...

I feel the variety of activities and the time efficiecy was the strength of this travel style. It is also interesting to travel with a group.
I had a wonderful time.
I have now done around 13 GAdventure trips and have loved everyone! I would therefore not fail to recommend them to anyone.
I was able to get immersed in the cultures and natural wonders of the countr...
Almost everything ran smoothly, and we had a great adventure. This was a trip true to it's name. There was something new and exciting almost every day. The route, accomodation and activities were well thought out, you could tell a lot of experience and in

FYI, Sharon, my wife, has already submitted her evaluation. We thought, though, that it would be good for me to submit one as well. I have rated this style of travel so high because it incorporates culture, recreation and camaraderie so well.
Both my wife and I had a wonderful time experiencing Belize with a small group of travelers who also appreciated experiencing out of the ordinary travel. Our group w...
Editor’s Take
Things to Look For in Guatemala Travel Reviews
Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary.
Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.
For traveling in Guatemala, consider that a majority of your time will be spend outdoors. If being in close proximity to nature, and seeing the odd bug or two in your accommodation is not your cup of tea, it is likely you will find your Guatemala tour experience less than satisfactory. Most lodgings in Guatemala will be comfortable yet basic.
Many Guatemala accommodations are eco-lodges designed with sustainability in mind above all else. This has the potential to feel like a chore for some travelers, so before you discount Guatemala travel, know that negative reviews may be coming from a different perspective on eco friendly travel.
Positive reviews of Guatemala consistently mention their guides as a huge part of making the tour enjoyable. Guatemala tour guides are often nature and adventure travel experts, helping travelers spot camouflaged animals, and providing unique insights into local plant and animal life. They also helped keep things positive during Guatemala’s often unpredictable weather, which accounted for some reviewers negative responses to Guatemala travel.
