GBTrip was wonderful Trip was wonderful. The hotels chosen for us were perfect as were the guides and sights we visited. We felt that we got a really good feel for the country and its history while meeting interesting people and having wonderful tours and food! Gabrielle Venturi: I think she is fabulous. Extremely helpful during the planning and attentive to details which I loved. Will absolutely continue to book trips via Gabrielle! Love the phone call predeparture that helped answer final questions.

GBWe had an awesome trip to South Africa We had an awesome trip to South Africa. It was carefully planned out by Heather and we loved it all. She is very knowledgeable and had great suggestions to make our trip so wonderful. Because of her personal travel experience in South Africa, she was able to recommend so many things relating to restaurants, events, et cetera. She let us have our own time for exploring, but the guided tours she scheduled covered more than we would have done on our own. Heather was also always available to answer all our questions and she had so much patience with us! The information package provided by Vaya was extensive and covered all aspects of traveling to a foreign country. The app for the itinerary was very handy and also very easy to use. We enjoyed a few days in Cape Town and a day of visiting wineries in Franschhoek. Our time on safari was so memorable. We stayed at Rockfig in Timbavati, which is a magical place. We saw so many animals on our game drives. The guides were so knowledgeable and all the Rockfig staff are amazing. We loved Victoria Falls. South Africa is an amazing country. I hope we can go back! Thank you Vaya Adventures for providing us with a trip of a lifetime!

GBEverything went smoothly including all… Everything went smoothly including all intra-country flights. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and interesting. Liz was with every step of the way. Combining a galapagos and machu picchu did require some logistics, and which to do first. The weather suggested a galapagos first and peru second which proved to be correct choice. Liz directed us to this itinerary.

GBWe love Vaya Adventures We love Vaya Adventures. Gabrielle Venturi has treated us like family and taken superb care of us for almost 10 years. She'll be putting up with us again as we take another expedition cruise with Aurora next year. She's a gem!!!! On our trip to the Arctic Circle in August, our fellow passengers were delightful, and we seemed to all share common interests and a real desire to experience this new and interesting wonderland. The trip provided us with a whole new appreciation for the lives of the Inuits who live in the region. We were very fortunate to have two Inuits on board to share their thoughts and experiences of growing up in the remote villages of the Arctic. We can’t thank Gabrielle and Vaya enough for recommending this cruise with Aurora Expeditions. Even under some challenging weather conditions the expedition team made the journey exciting and fulfilling. Can’t wait for our next trip in April.

GBThank you Vaya for our Fabulous Galapagos Trip Vaya planned a perfect Galapagos trip for our family . We had some time limitations and they managed to find ways for us to experience everything we had hoped for. The guides were wonderful. The ship itinerary enabled us to see all the animals we wished to see. Vaya even arranged for us to spend the long afternoon layover on our return trip at a colonial era inn,instead of sitting at the airport for 8 hours.
