The naturalists were so knowledgeable and great. The pace was good and we saw everything we wanted to see in Peru and Ecuador. The hotels were all beyond fabulous and the boat was the same.

Very good communication throughout the booking process. The portal app allows access to all of your travel itinerary and info. Everything went very smoothly from the time we met our representative at the airport in Quito to the time we returned.

My trip to Galapagos was beyond my imagination!! From beginning to end Natalie (Vaya) had addressed and attended to every detail to make my experience stellar and a once in a lifetime event. The guides and service staff aboard were so brilliant and delightful. This was an excursion one should not miss. I was solo and treated like a queen! From people, activities (snorkeling), environment, comfort and cuisine, nothing was missed. I would highly recommend Vaya for this unique adventure to all.

Melissa was an incredible resource to the area. Her insight set an experience I never could have planned on my own - from the hotels to home visits in Lamay and even the perfect bar to watch a soccer game.

Our trip to Argentina and Peru was the best planned trip that we have experienced! From the airport pickup in Buenos Aires on March 31 to the drop off at the Cusco airport on April 16 every detail was handled efficiently. All the Guides were knowledgeable, personable and timely. Emily at Vaya Adventures delivered a hassle free and unique experience!

We have worked with Vaya before on trips to South America. The trips were great so we decided to use Vaya for a trip to Europe. We recently returned from our trip to Sicily. Again, Vaya organized a great trip. The trip was great. Vaya's knowledge and planning was exceptional. The trip was 100% as planned. I cannot imagine taking this trip without the expertise that Vaya provided.
