13 and Counting We have taken 13 adventures with Internatinal Expeditions. We are often asked which trip was our favorite and have never even able to zero in on just one,or two,or even three. All trips were well planned and executed. Our expedition leaders and local guides were superb. We’re currently exploring choices for our 50th Anniversary trip.

VVery good with reservations Very informed guides and the wildlife and historical sites were superb as was the food. Logistics however need to be improved. First day should have come with a list of suggestions and a city map. Rooms should not have overlooked a religious site which was going to have all night long celebrations interfering with any sleep. Too early a start on last day which was much too long and really continud into the nighttime departures.

Amazing experience, beautifully organized and executed. Our guide was fantastic - and both naturalists extraordinary. Made it fun, helped us learn, created a life time experience. The boat and amenities were wonderful. The food outstanding, and the crew was so attentive-talented-and professional. My only suggestions would be to create a photo data base to provide linked to the list of flora/fauna we summarized toward the end of the trip. Also maximize the on land portions as you can, depending on the season.

The tour of the Galápagos Islands was… The tour of the Galápagos Islands was wonderful. ...everything I hoped for. I am 80 years old, with asthma, so I managed what I could of the trip. Riding around in a Panga as great, and I saw lots of scenery and sea birds. The treks across lava fields was interesting, but too long for me.....I found a 3 hour + hike, up hill and down dale at the very limit of what I could physically handle. I did not try the snorkeling or swimming, as I have asthma and the water was quite cold. The shore walks were fine and interesting. The treks through land areas were fun, seeing iguanas and various birds that Darwin studied. Turtle island was terrific, with all the Galápagos turtles walking around. The boat was lovely, accommodations great, food excellent, guides excellent and informative, evening lectures/movies were educational. The fellow travelers were attentive, interested, on time, cooperative, genial.

We had a wonderful time and were… We had a wonderful time and were pleased with special efforts made to accommodate us after our arrival was delayed because of severe weather in El Paso. Our accommodations were splendid, our guides outstanding and the meals were delicious and tastefully presented. The hikes and boat trips through jungle and cloud forest were experiences to be cherished and long remembered. We highly recommend it to anyone considering such an adventure.. Tom and Rami Scully
