The Guides are fantastic. Perfect planning with flawless execution made this a stress-free memorable trip to Lima, the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu with lots of information provided by our passionate, intrepid, knowledgeable local guides. They made us feel like family. Lovely people. And the food was fantastic!

Our trip ran like a well-oiled machine Our trip ran like a well-oiled machine. Everyone in on time, prepared, and sooooo informative. "Cruise" on the Galapagos Legend too child-heavy, chaotic, but not your fault. All drivers, guides, and airport transfer personnel were exceptional.

Great trip to South America This was our first trip to South America and it was fantastic. Worked with Shawna Sanders to come up with a nice 13-day itinerary - Torres del Paine, El Calafate, Buenos Aires, Iguazu Falls and Rio de Janiero. Chelsey Rickert took over a couple of months before our trip. We went over the trip in detail a month beforehand. We were going to join the tour in Punta Arenas from our Antarctica cruise. Due to bad weather our flight from Antarctica to Punta Arenas was delayed two days. I called SA and told them the situation. Chelsey and the SA Expedition staff quickly came up with the best solution to get us back on the tour. They arranged a private shuttle to pick us up and take us to Torres del Paine, a 5-hour ride, arriving in that afternoon. Talk about service ! We even had time the next morning to enjoy horseback riding before heading off to El Calafate. Definitely will return to Torres del Paine to fully enjoy the awesome hikes and glaciers. In each city we were met by personable and knowledgeable guides and good drivers. The hotels were nice and enjoyed delicious South American food. SA made our trip so enjoyable and memorable.

Smooth Sailing I worked with Jeanie of SA Expeditions to plan our trip. Everything happened on our trip just as planned, all the pick ups, transfers, tours, flights and guides. That's a lot! Not having to think about all this stuff made the trip very enjoyable. Jeanie also alerted us of a possible Argentinian airlines strike, although it was resolved before we had to make any changes. We felt well taken care of and focused on enjoying our adventure.

Best Peru Trip Hands Down! I felt I needed to dedicate a bit of time to provide a response worthy of this trip. In short I can say that it was flawless. You created an itinerary that left out nothing and included the perfect balance of rest and activity. Your staff was outstanding. Special mention needs to go to Allison. She is a genuine person that made us feel like close friends the first day we met her. The hotel choices at all stages of the trip were outstanding. I'm happy to argue with anyone that would consider alternate accommodations at any of the sites we visited. During our stays we used the spa services at two different hotels - outstanding by any standard. I've travelled extensively in the past twenty years and this was the best overall experience my wife and I have enjoyed. Next year we will be back booking a trip with SA Expeditions - the bar has been set high.
