CAGalapogos and Rapa Nui [Easter Island] My husband and I, with a family friend, traveled to Galapogos and Rapa Nui [Easter Island], with stops in Quito and Santiago. The whole trip was absolutely remarkable! We were amazed by the wildlife and scenery in the Galapogos and enthralled with the history and ancient stones/heads on Rapa Nui [Easter Island]... and Quito and Santiago were bonus sites! I can't say enough. The trip was extremely well planned and organized. The guides were knowledgeable and from the places in which they worked - giving local perspectives. The accommodations were excellent. I don't have anything bad to say. It was just an incredible trip - a quite remarkable journey. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to see both sites!!

GBExcellent South American Adventure The trip SA vacations planned for us was fantastic. They helped us plan a 2 week trip to Chile, Argentina and Patagonia. They were great to work with and reworked our itinerary multiple times. Every step of the way we had great tours and our transportation companies were always on time. It was a fabulous trip and anytime we were worried or concerned about our plans, they were always easy to reach.

GBWe had a wonderful trip to Ecuador… We had a wonderful trip to Ecuador organized by Alan and Martha Cohen, SA Vacations. The local recommendations for Quito hotel (Patio Andaluz) and Amazon experiences at the Sacha Lodge and the Amazon Manatee explorer cruise were perfect for our group of 8, ages 27 to 87. The team of greeters and guides in Quito were perfect. Every connection was easy and clear. We asked to adjust our Quito day to include the botanical garden and they didn't miss a beat setting it up. They also helped us with restaurants and taxis for our free. Every connection was eased with clear guidance and help. We are very grateful to Alan and Martha and will certainly reach out to them for any future trips to South America.

GBPerfect trip to Patagonia This last trip to Patagonia was the fourth that South American Vacations has organized for us, and just like the previous three (Peru, Costa Rica and Ecuador) it was perfect. Every connection, every tour, every hotel and flight was perfectly coordinated. Even when we had weather related delays there was a backup plan. Above all, we always appreciate the great advice that Martha and Alan give us to organize the perfect trip. They know South America like no one else. Their suggestions are always spot on

GBA bucket list trip for sure! So well organized. This was planned in 2019 then the world shut down. Martha was able to get us as many flight refunds as possible and we just kept holding on until finally both Peru and Easter Island were opened up. Not one glitch with all the flights, people to meet and multiple excursions. Everyone was very professional. Everything was planned to the smallest detail so it was a very stress free vacation. This was a bucket list for sure- no regrets. Looking to go back for Galapagos and I am sure she will have a great plan in mind for us. Thanks for making a dream come true.
