    Nice trip. Very good guys. They made it all. Nice experience. We did activities we never could dream of ... Like the cenotes, the waterfalls, the meetings with the mayan people. Hiking in a cave ... Memories for the rest of our life!

    We had a great time. Three weeks is the longest trip we've done with G. This style of tour is pretty tiring for three weeks. The constant early mornings, long travel days, only a couple of nights in one place. Or perhaps I'm just getting old :-)

    A great adventure in the footsteps of the Maya. The majestic pyramids revealed their secrets to me. The amazing jungle and volcanoes of Guatemala and the unique Coral reef in Belize provided an unforgettable experience.

    Honestly this was a very lovely trip. Great CEO. Great sites to visit. Some amazing optional activities. Snorkling in Caye Caulker, the caves in Belize... A lot of long travel but worth it. Private transport could be a bit better.

    Kate

    Asked on March 13th, 2025

    Can you advise if we book (2 people) for 1st Feb 2026, does that confirm the tour will go ahead? Also, looking at your website, it's clear the tour price is likely to be reduced closer to the time. Can you offer a better price if we book now?

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2025

      All of our trips have guaranteed departures, so this trip will depart with just 1 person booked. Unfortunately we are unable to offer better price than what is on the website at the moment. As it is quite a way away, we would recommend holding off for a while to see if the price gets reduced, but there is no guarantee that it will, but just make sure it doesn't fill up.

      Kate

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      In my first email I asked about the option for hotel upgrades, can you advise.

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2025

      The hotels are part of the confirmed itinerary and we don't offer upgrades. The only option you might have is to upgrade the rooms locally, but at your own expense in addition to the tour price. If you are looking for upgraded service level, we will recommend looking at our Geluxe or National Geographic tours.

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten September 2024

      You can most certainly choose to share a room with a fellow traveller of the same gender in your group at no extra costs. The pricing you see advertised on our tours are based on twin share. Single supplement or "My own room" as we call it will be an additional charge on top of the shown pricing on the website.
