Our entire trip from airport pick-up to the final drop off went off without any glitches. Thank you so much, we will be recommending your company to our friends.”
Sharon and Allan Ross – BC, Canada
“It was a wonderful trip that fulfilled my number one bucket list item. I shall never forget it and you and your people made it so much more memorable by handling all the details impeccably. Thanks so much for your services. We cannot recommend Vaya Adventure highly enough. It was all perfect. You did a great job from pre-planning e-mails, to pre-trip documentation, to the actual final itinerary. We also had enough free time at and the right time, to allow us to explore on our own. The drivers and guides were great.”

“Booking with Vaya Adventures was a great decision! We planned our 20th wedding anniversary trip to Peru with Vaya Adventures and I’m so glad we did. They proposed a fabulous itinerary of the best sites, and the guides they provided to bring the history and culture to life were top notch. Great hotels, great food, great experience. We would only return to South America if we used Vaya Adventures to plan our trip. They’re amazing!”
Janine S.
“Our guides were excellent in all locations. Extremely informative, easy to understand, very thorough in their knowledge, and gave good recommendations for our free time.”
Geri Friedman – Illinois
“Thank you Vaya Adventures for arranging our amazing trip to Peru, Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands! It was the perfect blend of cultural and outdoor activities. Prior to the trip an extensive information packet arrived which answered all our questions from a history of the countries to packing suggestions. We were met by a representative at the airport, escorted to our hotel, and each day reviewed our plans with the guides. We can not praise our guides (and drivers) enough). They were knowledgeable, accommodating and so pleasant to be with. It was a trip of a lifetime!”
Sharon L.
“A thing I really like about traveling with Vaya is the guides/drivers. I learned so much by having one-on-one time with them. We talked at length about life, politics, art, family & dogs, and on and on. Sometimes for hours. They all really tried to show us their country and a good time.”
Janice Baldwin – California

Martha Rothman – New York
“Every single accommodation was luxurious and grand. Some of the most beautiful, charming, and chic accommodations I've ever stayed in! The staff at each lodge goes out of their way to make your stay even better than what you would expect. Each one has turndown service, ride arranging, gourmet breakfasts. Luxury robes and slippers, king beds that are like sleeping on a cloud, heated bathroom floors, heading pads in the beds for cold nights, rain showers with incredible pressure .... the list goes on. Just overall amazing service and experience.”
Kathryn Fischer – Georgia
“The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable during trip planning. The hotels were excellent (exceeded expectations) and all guides were phenomenal. Highly recommend Vaya to anyone visiting South America. I can’t wait for my next trip!”
Elina
“A fantastic experience. The trip exceeded our expectations on many levels – challenge, beauty, level of service, etc. Our guide on the Inca Trail portion of our trip was one of the best we’ve ever had for this type of trip. Not only was he willing to speak with us constantly and answer our questions, but he was extremely knowledgeable about his country, Peru, as well as of the history of the Inca’s and Spanish takeover. The pre-departure information was great and we really appreciated the historical summaries of the two regions. We appreciated the restaurant recommendations as well and the ones we tried were great.”
Denise and Loren Angelo – New York
“Could not have asked for more! Janie listened to us and helped plan a great itinerary for our first trip to Vietnam and Cambodia. So many highlights the Vespa food tour, visit to the Cu Chi tunnels and the war museum in central HCMC. TIA Wellness was perhaps the highlight of the trip, we had a great time at the cooking class and bicycle trip in Hoi An. Hanoi was lovely and such a contrast to HCMC. We LOVED the elephant sanctuary in Siem Reap and enjoyed visiting the temples. Phnom Penn surprised us, especially coming from calm Siem Reap! We enjoyed visiting the Royal Palace (and seeing the King's mother!)”
William Swersey – New York
”Working with Dervla on my complex and highly specialized itinerary was an absolute pleasure. Her expertise, attention to detail, and deep understanding of the diverse regions in Kenya that I was traveling to made what could have been a challenging trip into a seamless and enriching experience. From the intricacies of travel logistics to ensuring I could visit conservation projects and photograph African elephants in the wild, Dervla truly knows her stuff.
Patricia Sims – Founder of World Elephant Day
“We had a wonderful time! I was so happy that my wife's first experience in the bush was a success. Watching my wife see her first truly wild game, especially the cats, made me smile.”
Christopher Beuscher – Massachusetts
“Gabrielle 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 Arctic cruise next year. She's a gem!!!!”
