The guides were awesome! Kevin Floerke and Josiah Finnley. Plus our Glacier Park Guides, Tara & Tom.

The hikes, scenery and wildlife were wonderful. And everyone in our group got along great.

The tour was a good mix of walking and visiting points of interest. Isabelle, our guide, was knowledgeable and being from Provence excited to show us her home area. She made us feel as though we were her friends for whom she wanted to show why she loved Provence.

Our Classic Journeys tour in Quebec City and the neighboring villages, parks, and countryside was exceptional. Our guide Lenny was excellent as clearly demonstrated by his professionalism, enthusiasm, sense of humor, patience, and kindness. Fabulous experiences, tastings, meals, and hikes / walks. In addition, the Classic Journeys team had us well prepared for the tour. We highly recommend!

An unforgettable adventure exploring Iceland with a good dose of culture, history, and how it ties to the landscape. The lodging, meals and transportation were excellent. Foodies will not be disappointed. The time moving to our destinations flew by with stories, descriptions and history from Atli our guide. The unexpected stops along the way to view or experience lesser known points of interest make this an outstanding tour. We look forward to more travel with Classic Journey.

We had an amazing trip to the Galapagos with 3 generations. We had a private tour with 6 of us plus our guide who was incredible. She was competent & knowledgeable about the Islands & the flora & fauna. She also was able to spot things of interest way before we could see them.
She was so great that we felt like she was part of our Family. She was great at anticipating our needs & dealing with them quickly. Some of our party had some physical limitations & others were gluten free. Our guide always had gf snacks & was able to accommodate our physical limitations gracefully.
We felt very safe during our whole trip. We always had proper gear & safety boats nearby when we were in the water.
Our first contact with Classic Journeys was great! The people we dealt with initially & during the whole planning process were competent, very knowledgeable, very friendly & willing to take the time to address our needs.
They worked very hard to make our trip a memorable experience & they achieved that goal.
We all had an amazing trip & a once in a lifetime experience.
We will travel with Classic Journeys again. It was wonderful to not have to think about any arrangements or permits, etc. We just had to sit back & enjoy everything!
We were so very lucky to have found Classic Journeys. Thank you for a once in a lifetime experience.

Well planned, terrific guide, small group

Great trip.

Definitely our guide, Alti!

Arthur Woods was a fantastic guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with. It was great being out in the country at Nes Gard. All of the excursions, (hikes, glacier walk, organic garden) were terrific.

Our guide Martin Cox made the experience awesome. The activities such as kayaking, snorkeling, hiking were lots of fun and informative given the easygoing nature and fund of knowledge of our guide.
Overall, I had a once in a lifetime experience, always to be remembered.

We all had a truly wonderful experience touring the Cotswolds with Diane Clarke and Julia Morris. They both were SO very informative, caring, considerate of our concerns and so fun to have guide us through our journey. It was everything that we could hope for. For me the highlight was simply walking amongst the beautiful landscape and animals throughout the countryside while learning about medieval England from our guides.

We had a great time on our Classic Journey trip. The hikes were great with different variety featuring hikes with great views, hikes to waterfalls, hikes along lakes and streams, none too difficult or too long but still challenging. Of course, what usually makes a trip are the people and our group was a fun group but what ultimately makes a trip are the guides and our guides, Francesca and Janelle were wonderful! Both were so friendly, caring, knowledgeable, organized and efficient.

our tour guide Eric was patient, knowledge and flexible! our family was able to enjoy each other and put the worries of the trip driving and coordination aside. The hotels were truly unique. Each adventure (snorkel, glacier walk, ice field, horse backsides) had a super individual guide that read our group needs accurately. All of us are thrilled!

Our whole family went to Iceland for a trip with Classic Journeys. It met and exceeded EVERYONE's expectations. Our guide Eric was superb and accommodated everyone's needs in stride. The activities were perfect and kept all moving and excited about the next day. The hotels and food were good, though my son may have trouble getting reindeer locally.

Well managed and interesting

I had a great adventure with Classic Journey in Galapagos. Our guide, Alfredo, was phenomenal. We were a group with very different levels of physical capabilities and levels of comfort with adventure. Alfredo took everyone’s needs and wants into account and made sure everyone had fun, saw what was most important and remained safe doing it. Our group had 9 family members and 2 people who became like family over the week. Alfredo did a great job of integrating the group and also giving us some free time to explore on our own.
I am a vegetarian, so I was not sure what to expect food wise, but there was always an option or 2 that was available and very tasty. Our last dinner at The Point on Santa Cruz was delicious. I also loved the local houses/restaurants we went to. I chose a land based tour so we could feel immersed in the culture and experience local food and customs. Alfredo and his group of friends on the islands were so welcoming.
The wildlife was spectacular. Whether snorkeling or hiking, Alfredo was great about pointing out the flora and fauna of the islands. I also really liked his knowledge of Darwin and the history of the Galapagos. On every island there was at least one local guide helping and they were all accessible, friendly and knowledgeable. Godo on San Cristobal went above and beyond to make me and my 2 sisters feel comfortable and safe on our snorkeling outings.
The hotels were all nice with air conditioning. Even though it was the cool season, I still very much appreciated a cool room to sleep in. My favorite hotel was Indigo on San Cristobal. Loved the location and the proximity to to sea lions, shops and restaurants. Great place for an early walk before the daily adventure started. The pool area was also amazing.
Iguana Crossing on Isabela was also top notch. Beautiful view. Great iguana watching. Beautiful beach to walk on. Fun bars and restaurants close by. We also saw amazing shore birds when we walked on the beach. Very nice pool area. Enjoyed the breakfast here both mornings. Eggs made to order and nice buffet.
I appreciated the the location and the history of the Angermeyer hotel on Santa Cruz. Beautiful place to hang out and have a coffee or a drink. At night there are baby sharks to watch in the water and you can see the lights from the town. I love history so I enjoyed Alfredo telling us about the Angermeyer family. This hotel is showing its age a bit. It was very clean and had AC and the people who worked there could not have been nicer. The manager was so helpful when one of my sisters had to get to town on our last day to get to a pharmacy.
Our last day was full travel day, but even as we made our way back to Quito, Alfredo continued to tell us about the different ecosystems we were traveling through. I will definitely continue to follow the efforts of Galapagos to save their wildlife and their plants, especially the native plants and tress.
I have to also compliment Alfredo’s choice of snacks!! He always had a stash of goodies while hiking or boating. Tangos and Monkey Hippies were spectacular!!!
I cannot recommend this adventure enough. It was truly the adventure of a lifetime.

Donal is the ultimate host. He is well known and respected by so many people and that helped to ensure we really experienced the Irish culture, the best of restaurants, and story telling that was simply great. You have selected hotels that were outstanding.
