Matt has everything very well planned and thought out. We wet to Peru in August 2025, saw lots of things I probably would not have known of if we went on our own. Most of the time we stayed 2 nights at each hotel which I think is much better than packing up every day. We stayed in Lima for 3 days on our own afterwards.

Great trip to Peru and Bolivia
I just returned from my second excellent trip with Geotours, this time to Peru (with my spouse) and Bolivia. The trip preparation and organization was super thorough and we covered a lot of ground efficiently while staying at convenient and generally comfortable accommodations. We enjoyed diverse and well planned activities but also had some free time. The company owners are exceptionally experienced travelers who lead their tours personally, in a responsive and responsible manner. I have already committed to two more upcoming trips with them.

Namibia, etc.
I had a fabulous time traveling to Southern Africa, especially Botswana and Namibia with GeoTours. Matt and Susan were very professional with leading our group on a schedule that included seeing wildlife, learning the histories of the countries, and experiencing the cultural aspects of townships, and tribes. A great mix of experiencing Africa. The local guides in the national parks were very knowledgeable and flexible to what our group was interested in, whether it be the large mammals, birds or plants. GeoTours had most of the trip scheduled with planned activities, but they also had many options for extra excursions to go on or we could just relax at the hotel. The accommodations were all clean and comfortable and varied from 3 - 4+ star facilities. This was an experience I will never forget and I hope to travel with them again.

highly recommended
I recently went with GeoTours to Bolivia and Peru, my 6th trip with them so far. The owners/leaders Matt and Susan designed and executed the trip plan very well - for instance, the Peru trip started with Arequipa, a lower altitude historical city, before going up to high altitude cities/places. the trip ended in Machu Picchu, one of the seven wonders of the world. most local guides are very knowledgeable with good English. The hotels they booked are from the same chain, with similar facilities and services, easy to adjust. What i particularly like is Matt was a geography professor, so he explains the natural setting, cultures and histories with depths. I have recommended this tour (and others) to my friends, as GeoTours trips make participants "be a traveler, not a tourist," as the late Anthony Bourdain advocated.

I've travel with GeoTours to Bali
I've traveled with GeoTours to Bali, Ecuador, Sicily and Peru, and I have no plans on traveling with anyone else other than GeoTours. Each travel experience has left me in awe. Matt and Suzan are incredible guides. I promise that if you travel with GeoTours, you'll be planning your next adventure before your trip is even over. I can't wait to continue to explore the world with GeoTours. Love you, Matt & Suzan!

I love traveling with GeoTours
I love traveling with GeoTours. The itineraries are well thought out, giving each participant on the trip an opportunity to experience both the culture and truely new experiences. I appreciate the attention to detail when these trips are planned. The accommodations are always very unique and comfortable. Matt and Susan do an amazing job with providing the group with a variety of things to do, while also leaving ample down time for participants to relax, if desired. I have visited 5 countries with GeoTours and all have been 5 stars. These trips not only offer a variety of experiences, but also offer great value. I am always overjoyed when I know that a GeoTours trip is in the horizon. Thank you Geotours for your continued dedication to helping people like me with the opportunity to visit the world.

Geotours will show you the world.
Geotours will certainly show you the world. The sheer number of unique destinations to choose from is extraordinary. Having traveled several times with this company I can assure that you will see everything at each destination that you would want to see and often times more. Matt is a retired geographer and loves to show people the world. I highly recommend geotours. Informative, efficient and affordable compared to some of the other big your companies.
