First, I just wanted to thank our travel specialist again! His help was invaluable and made the trip so memorable and easy. Everything for the Peru leg was flawless from the time we landed in Cusco. On the trail, Lobo, our guide was a walking Inca/Peru encyclopedia. He answered every question we threw at him regarding plants, animals, history, astronomy and anthropology and everything else. Everything in Ecuador was nearly as equally perfect. We filled the days between the trek and the Galapagos cruise with sightseeing in Cuenca and Quito on our own. Thanks again for planning out this amazing trip! Look forward to our next Global Basecamps vacation!

Client Testimonials
Steven, Highlights of Ecuador and Peru
We got back from our Africa trip about a week ago and are still basking in the glow of a wonderful trip! The excursion to Tanzania that you arranged for us went off without a hitch and everything was phenomenal. So, we just want to say thanks again for working with us through the whole process. It was truly everything we expected and a whole lot more!
