I’ve done seven trips with intrepid now coming up. And quite honestly most of the only issue appears to be a distance tune from the hotel to where we’re going and sometimes not enough group size. Safety wise it’s good I’m staying with intrepid
I just did my first SOLO group trip with EF GoAhead Tours to Venice, Florene and Rome and had the BEST time of my life! I even extended my trip an extra 2 days to visit the Amalfi Coast (Positano) on my own, after my group members departed. I would also highly advise checking their Solo Tours out as there is no supplement charge for their solo tours. Good amount of balanced time with the group as well as free time. I would also check them out. But I may look into doing my next trip with G Adventures or Intrepid as EF GoAhead doesn't currently have any solo trips that I'm interested in.

I am so excited to find out about these two companies. I have always wanted to travel and especially like guided tours. I have bad legs. I can walk but need to sit often or even take a motorized wheelchair if walking a lot for multiple days. I understand I couldn't do all trips but are there trips you've taken that you've seen somebody in a wheelchair? If so, how annoying was it for the other people in the tour? I would not want to inhibit other's joy. Would you recommend one company over the other when it comes to meeting special needs?
Love your informative review. I had actually never heard of G Adventures. I came here to just learn about Intrepid, but based on this review it would seem that G Adventures wins out against Intrepid in the majority of the categories. Thank you.
Thank you for this video Leanne. I am about to make my first solo trip. I'm excited but a bit afraid also. I am going to Germany and Switzerland to visit where my ancestors came from. Do you have advise for a beginner solo traveler? I was thinking for safety to stay at one hotel as a base, then make day trips tot he surrounding areas. But a bus tour might be better?
Hi there. I live in Switzerland and I can tell you that it is very safe here. But of course everywhere something can happen... In Switzerland there is a good transport network so I would recommend that you book a few bases and then go on day trips from there to the surrounding areas ;)
Anyone any idea which is best for families? We're hoping to go with my husband and 11 year old son to Morocco in December. Average temperature about 18 degrees, which is fine by us.
This was so helpful and exactly the type of video I was looking for, so thank you! Who did you go with for the safari? Thinking of doing an Africa tour in September but can’t decide between the 2 companies!
I'm so sorry I only just saw this. Its literally my only youtube video! I did kenya with intrepid. Who did you choose in the end? Hope you managed to go before lockdown happened!
They may not exist anymore but i can recommend African Routes for a low budget option that really looks after you and offer great routes. I did South Africa pick up in Pretoria, travel through kruger, the veldt, swaziland (very briefly) Durban and then along the garden route to Cape Town. I could have travelled on with the same bus & guide on their next leg up to Namibia and i wish i'd let them talk me into that but i'd organised my flight home by then and after a year away, home was calling but they were a fantastic pair of guides (a couple doing it together) and i do wish i'd just pushed on another week or so with them.
Great information thank you :) have you been on some of these trip by yourself? I am keen to go to South America but will most likely be going solo. Thanks
I was on an intrepid trip by myself, and g adventures with someone I knew. I think it all depends on the group. The group is unknown before you go and can have huge effect on your trip. The guide and the destination don’t have as much input on solo’s experience. In general I enjoyed the g adventures trip more but that might not have anything to do with the company.
I wanted to go on a G Adventure trip but apparently I was too old for your I wanted to do. They offered a similar tour but it cost about £1000 more. Definitely won’t be booking with them at that extra cost.
@@marykay8587 No, the other tour was with with G Adventures but it was more expensive for a shorter trip with less going on, all because I'm over 39! I have looked at Intrepid and they seem like a good company, reasonably priced with no age restrictions. The company that i travelled with before was Dragoman who were excellent but it seems like the pandemic has done for them as their website isn't showing anything.
hi there! Thanks so much for this review!! Ive never done this kind of organised trip before but super excited of the idea of getting a well planned tripped and being in a group of people to socialise with. Sadly... these are covid days. How is the situation then? Does one get a refund if thigs dont work out (like lockdowns etc?) I am fully vaccinated
Thanks for the tips! I am planning a trip to Turkey this summer. I usually plan everything myself but this year I decided I want to find it all organized. However, I need to have the free time to read, go out at night for drinks, and take my moments. I saw the trip suggested by Intrepid and Lonely Planet: Turkey uncovered. Do you think I will like it? Will I have my free time? Thanks again for the video.
I don’t care about supporting worldwide countries honestly. I am a frugal traveler and taking a lot of time to save up for traveling. I probably stay away from the companies which use our money to generously give away to foreign countries. In my minds, when I travel to a country, I already helped out its economy by eating at restaurants, staying in hotels, giving tips to services, drivers, local guides, tour leaders and so forth.
Independent travellers don't do G adventures or Intrepid.They go solo.I have been to 99 countries and do it on my own.Save 1000s.With Internet you don't need a package tour.If you are too lazy to book a bus ticket and a hotel...stay at home.
I was so sad thinking I had to go travel the world alone but now I’m stoked for these groups!!! Wahoo!!!
So. When do I need to be ready and iised picking me up

Just booked the 15 Day Classic National Parks and Bright Lights North America tour (G Adventures) for June 2021. Can’t wait!
Sounds epic!! Im definitely looking forward to a trip in 2021. Just need to decide where!

Yay! which ones have you booked?

Thanks Leanne!
Thank you for this video! Great information , as I am looking into a trip with gadventures in the future!
Thank you for this video Leanne. I am about to make my first solo trip. I'm excited but a bit afraid also. I am going to Germany and Switzerland to visit where my ancestors came from. Do you have advise for a beginner solo traveler? I was thinking for safety to stay at one hotel as a base, then make day trips tot he surrounding areas. But a bus tour might be better?

G Adventures has its regional offices in the countries you visit. G Adventures SUV take you to the tourist attractions on the itineraries.
I'm ready. What do I need to do
Anyone any idea which is best for families? We're hoping to go with my husband and 11 year old son to Morocco in December. Average temperature about 18 degrees, which is fine by us.
Great video, thank you!
So . . . in a nutshell, what’s your favorite of the two? 😅
difficult to call! But I have travelled with G adventures more often! 9 trips vs 2!
Wow, lots of unanswered questions here.
I had G Adventures for my Peru last 2019. Cant complain...However this after pandemic it seems to me both are overpriced...
This was so helpful and exactly the type of video I was looking for, so thank you! Who did you go with for the safari? Thinking of doing an Africa tour in September but can’t decide between the 2 companies!

Is airfare included with any of these or do we purchase that separately?
Im trying to figure that out as well! If you want so we can figure this out together we can dm on insta! Jimmyramirez.co
This was really helpful. I’m hoping to go to Japan 🇯🇵 in January with G adventures
amazing!
My last trip was the g adventures Japan express trip, just before Covid hit. Awesome and highly recommended.
How was it?
Thank you for sharing this
What camera was this video recorded on?
Does G Adventures have an options to have your own room? I'm not a roommate type person
Yeah they do
So G adventures is the clear winner
Great information thank you :) have you been on some of these trip by yourself? I am keen to go to South America but will most likely be going solo. Thanks

Are the hotel included in the package ? Or how does it work
You can book with or without airfare usually.
Sorry, re-read the question. Yes, both of these companies include hotel in the trip price.
Helpful thank you
Thank you.
I wanted to go on a G Adventure trip but apparently I was too old for your I wanted to do. They offered a similar tour but it cost about £1000 more. Definitely won’t be booking with them at that extra cost.
was it Intrepid??? I want to do one with my small family
@@marykay8587 No, the other tour was with with G Adventures but it was more expensive for a shorter trip with less going on, all because I'm over 39!

Hi,
Both of them don't answer their damn phone or emails....just sayin...
I have done five tours with Intrepid: Amazing!
I have done one tour with G Adventures: Worst experience of my life.
Why
@sam Algoma can you elaborate on why? And which tour?
oh really? Ive been on 9 with g adventures and loved every one!
whyyy????
Thats just a double commercial 😂
g adventures are age restricted ie 18 to 30 bollocks
No they aren't. Only some of them are; they have the 18 to 30 tours, but they also have tours for older individuals.
I don’t care about supporting worldwide countries honestly. I am a frugal traveler and taking a lot of time to save up for traveling.

Or .. you do what you want and let others do what they want? There’s an idea 😁
Not all of us are poor. I don’t mind spending money for the convenience. I already work hard enough to make the money I earn
