CLExcellent trip to Peru We went to Peru and were well looked after the whole time we were with SAE. No worries. Everything was well organized and all we had to do was meet them. They were always on time and looked after everything. The guides were excellent. Organizing the trip was easy and our trip organizer was very accessible and flexible. Peru is a marvellous place to explore and the food is fantastic! but beware that little English is spoken. Either you need to speak Spanish or you need a guide.

GBGreat trip to South America This was our first trip to South America and it was fantastic. Worked with Shawna Sanders to come up with a nice 13-day itinerary - Torres del Paine, El Calafate, Buenos Aires, Iguazu Falls and Rio de Janiero. Chelsey Rickert took over a couple of months before our trip. We went over the trip in detail a month beforehand. We were going to join the tour in Punta Arenas from our Antarctica cruise. Due to bad weather our flight from Antarctica to Punta Arenas was delayed two days. I called SA and told them the situation. Chelsey and the SA Expedition staff quickly came up with the best solution to get us back on the tour. They arranged a private shuttle to pick us up and take us to Torres del Paine, a 5-hour ride, arriving in that afternoon. Talk about service ! We even had time the next morning to enjoy horseback riding before heading off to El Calafate. Definitely will return to Torres del Paine to fully enjoy the awesome hikes and glaciers. In each city we were met by personable and knowledgeable guides and good drivers. The hotels were nice and enjoyed delicious South American food. SA made our trip so enjoyable and memorable.

GBRapa Nui was a fantastic destination Rapa Nui was a fantastic destination. The hotel was in a great location, but was a little run down and we had to pay for water since they failed to refill their dispenser. The SA arranged guide was great - knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Air Travel was very good; great seats enrout. Our SA travel agent Hellen was fantastic as usual.

GBThe trip was great but the itinerary… The trip was great but the itinerary did not reflect the actual day to day on the Solaris. The itinerary should have stated that there would be 2 snorkeling outings every day. I would have brought my own gear, had I known...
