TESTIMONIALS
It was truly amazing. I cannot say enough about how fantastic our guides and Howard Soon were at communicating their knowledge and in such are relaxing manner. The accommodations ranged from delightful to outstanding.
Argentina Wine Tour

Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic guides were well suited for the group and very helpful. They had local knowledge, interesting historical facts, good restaurants & shopping.
– Walking the Cotswold Way

Going to the Galapagos would not be nearly as enriching unless it had a strong learning component. It is such an unusual place. That need was well-met.
– Galapagos

Gary Lewis is an excellent leader. The guides chosen and arranged for each of the gardens were wonderful.
– Gardens of Ireland
