Joe Watters - June, 2008

"We had a terrific time in Peru. It was a trip that all of us will long remember in the best of terms. I've said to others that Highland Adventures did a super job of seeing that we had all the elements in the trip that made it extra special. I've been on many trips to all the continents of the world and this trip to Peru stands out as one of the very best."

Jonathan Weaver - June, 2008

"Highland Adventures planned everything perfectly. There was always an English speaking representative to greet us wherever we traveled around Peru. The hotel choices were superb, and also offered an excellent buffet breakfast at every stay. The trip was worry-free, stress-free. If I were to go back to Peru, I would first call Highland Adventures."

Christopher Conrady - May, 2008

"The trip with Highland Adventures to Peru was absolutely incredible. It was a beautiful mix of guided tours through the Incan past and freedom to explore the current Peruvian culture. Each guide explained the Incan empire like they had personally lived in it. I could not think of a more incredible trip for those of all ages. I recommend this trip for those thrill seekers, history buffs, or simply those wanting to explore a new culture but simply do not know how."

Brady Ambler - May, 2008

"Everything was well run and amazing from the start. We really enjoyed our adventure."

Mike and Jane Collins - April, 2008

Mary Beth Algert - April, 2008

Ken and Darlene Bobrosky - February, 2008

"We have arrived home from an incredible trip to Peru. Everything was efficient and well organized. Hotels were in great location, their staffs were all helpful, the guides were knowledgeable and personable, and the sites were amazing. I want to thank you for your continuing contact regarding our needs and requests. It was very comforting to know that someone was dedicated to providing a caring professional service. Thank you. We will be recommending Highland Adventures to four friends from Canada."

Amanda and Jeff Gallinat (Hong Kong) - December, 2007

"Thanks to you and to the team there for our wonderful holiday! We had a truly extraordinary time, in all regards. Certainly, the Galapagos is a 'once in a lifetime' destination, filled with the truly unusual and amazing. The wonderful ship Sagitta that you selected, the world-class naturalist guide we had, our wonderful fellow travellers (only 10), and the amazing crew of the yacht made our trip all the more wonderful. All of the arrangements were superb, and Highland Adventures personal care throughout the process was also great (even though we were 6,000 miles away). I would highly recommend both this tour and your company to anyone looking for a wonderful trip to the Galapagos. "

Jeff Borman - December, 2007

"It was a pleasure to plan a trip through Highland Adventures. The company's knowledge of the tours is exceptional and the follow-through critical. I have recommended Highland Adventures to family and friends."

Jim Glick - November, 2007

"This was my third adventure with Highland Adventures. My previous trips were to Peru and Chile. My most recent one was to the wonderful country of Argentina. All areas of my trip were very well taken care; airport pick-up and returns; the most wonderful guides throughout the country; excellent hotels and a first for me: a bike tour of Buenos Aires. An incredible way of viewing a city. I will definitely use Highland Adventures for my next two trips: Brazil and Ecuador (with the Galapagos Islands) knowing I will get an incredible adventure."

Stanley Phillips - October, 2007

"Thank you for making our trip such a great one. We really had a wonderful time. It was lots of fun and very memorable. Everyone did their job to their fullest and on time. Highland Adventures rates A-1 by us. The tours were great, the rafting was fun, and the jungle was an adventure."

Kristina Monshaw - October, 2007

"Everything went smoothly and we had a great time!"

Glenn and Kim Goodwin - September, 2007

"What a wonderful experience. Great personal attention! I can't say enough wonderful things about your team during the Inca Trail portion. Each night our tents were setup and ready. The meals were as good as any restaurant. The first night they actually went down to the river and got fresh trout for dinner. There is nothing like arriving to Machu Picchu through the Sun Gate early that fourth day.

The greatest part of our adventure is that Highland Adventures customized the tour the way we wanted. Kim and I wish to thank you for making this an unforgettable vacation."

Judy Young - September, 2007

"Just wanted to let you know what a great trip we had. I can't thank you enough for all your help. We loved our guides and everything in our itinerary."

Jeannette Lewis - August, 2007

"We were really impressed with how organized everything ran and how knowledgeable all the guides were. Thanks a ton for customizing our trip. I would be happy to refer any friends or family to Highland Adventures for their future travels."

Meagan Dever - August, 2007

"I have just fallen in love with Peru and its people. I could not be happier with everyone that was part of our tour with Highland Adventures. Please feel free to contact me about writing a reference to anyone/anytime."

Margaret Chan, Hong Kong, China - August, 2007

"I highly appreciated the arrangements and personalized services of Highland Adventures"

Svetlana Walker - July, 2007

"We had the most AMAZING time ever - not only with the incredible scenery and experiences, but the entire organization of the trip itself! We were unbelievably impressed with how effortless and smooth all of our transitions between the destinations were. It was a fairly complex and multi-destination trip, and every single component went off without a hitch. We are so thrilled with the entire experience overall that we are already looking into your Galapagos package! "

Sharon McDannald - June, 2007

"A+ adventure to the Galapagos! Thank you so much for such a well coordinated adventure. What an incredible and unforgettable trip! Everything went perfectly from the pick-up in Quito to the last transfer (on time to the minute) to the airport in Guayaquil. All of our expectations were met and then some! I liked swimming with the playful sea-lions and cute little penguins - couldn't believe how close you could get to everything. We left feeling like we had made some friends in Galapagos and Ecuador. We will definitely recommend this trip to our friends."

Tim and Nicole Stauffacher - June, 2007

"From the beginning to the very end of our trip, our experience with Highland Adventures was nothing short of excellent. Every detail was covered thoroughly. Every question answered to leave us with no sense of uncertainty. Most importantly, an absolutely wonderful trip was prepared for us to Machu Picchu. The trip memories and adventures will last a lifetime. We would most definitely recommend Highland Adventures for anyone interested in a truly high quality vacation experience."

Georgianna Nichols - May, 2007

"Our experience was truly a once in a lifetime event. If any vacation could be considered “perfect”, far exceeding our expectations, this was it!! Not even one disappointment. All of the guides were great and always showed up on time and ready to go with excitement.

We loved Ecuador and Peru, they’re both incredible. Machu Picchu was amazing. I can’t even describe how miraculous the Galapagos Islands are. It’s unlike anything we’ve ever seen or experienced – a trip I would recommend for anyone interested in nature at its best. The Alta was the perfect size – only 14 guests on board. The naturalist onboard was just as amazing as the islands. The snorkeling was great – a bit cold, but swimming with sea lions, sharks, penguins and turtles was quite incredible. We met some wonderful people and hope to keep in touch for years to come. We can’t thank you enough for creating such a memorable vacation for us."

Maxine De Seta - May, 2007

"I had a wonderful time hiking the Inca Trail and seeing Machu Picchu -- the experience of a lifetime! The care and personalized service I received from Highland Adventures was amazing. Cheers to Highland Adventures and their team!"

Irina Martynov - April, 2007

"We are back from our wonderful vacation and cannot thank you enough for a great tour you put together for us. We were most impressed by the level of service of your team in Peru. We will recommend Highland Adventures to all our friends!"

Ken Robinette - April, 2007

"The trip was well planned and wonderfully organized. It was our first trip to South America and we had no idea what to expect. All of our guides were excellent, fun and informative. The combination of the Andean culture, Incan history and amazing topography made this a trip of a lifetime. My two teenage children had wanted to go to Hawaii instead of Peru, but both are thanking me now. For myself, this was without question the best vacation I have ever had and it makes me anxious for another trip to South America"

Max Poliashenko - April, 2007

"I was amazed how much Peru had to offer. Even though I speak Spanish, I really enjoyed the fact that we were always taken care of by super-friendly staff guiding us on personalized tours, sometimes, just for two of us. This was a memorable and worry-free vacation thanks to Highland Adventures."

Robert Graesser - March, 2007

"Thanks for making our trip to Peru such a great success. Cuzco, the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu were the highlights of our month in South America. The arrangements you made for us were great. Your team was always on time, friendly and knowledgeable. The guides and tours were also very good. Above all, your advice and careful tour arrangements kept us healthy and able to enjoy our holiday. We'll look forward to our next adventure with Highland Adventures."

Jillian Zambelli - March, 2007

"The trip was outstanding! Your services were top notch. I would take another trip with Highland Adventures in a heart beat and would recommend you to anyone wanting to travel to South America."

Jackie Nickolaus - March, 2007

"Our trip to Peru was great. Everything worked seamlessly. The transfer people were wonderful, the bus drivers good and the guides fantastic! Your team in Peru was above and beyond anything that I've ever experienced. I am encouraging my parents to contact you about booking a trip for them."

Mary Anne Frankl - January, 2007

"If you are interested in a wonderful adventure provided by the most professional detail oriented organization then make Highland Adventures your choice. They delivered much more than we expected by the time our trip to Chile was completed in January of 2007. One of the trip highlights was our visit to Isla Magdalena along the Strait of Magellan. If you've never seen over 140,000 penguins, make this trip and you will smile each time you see a picture of a penguin. It was fabulous!

Wild Patagonia was a term I had heard on the Travel Channel and I would say that describes the Torres del Paine Park. From majestic mountain views to wildlife around every corner Patagonia "rocks”. There is so much more but the people at Highland Adventures can tell you all about it. They are the expert. My husband and I would like to do another trip to Peru or the Galapagos and without a doubt Highland Adventures will be the company we call. "

Audrey Fastuca - November, 2006

"I speak for both my father and I when I say we do not know where to begin in recounting this incredible trip. The organization of this trip was perfectly orchestrated; a credit to you all for making that happen. In the short amount of time we had, we were able to truly experience Peru from village to city. Each guide was thorough, accommodating, and above, all patient. We put in a special word for Rudi, the Machu Picchu tour guide, who really made seeing the Incan ruins a spectacle and a personal experience. "

Beth Oliveri - September, 2006

"I am writing you to let you know just how much I appreciated all of your assistance with my once in a lifetime trip to Peru. For months you assisted me tirelessly answering all of my questions. Your patience just amazed me. Your Peru guides were always available to meet us each step of the way. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Highland Adventures and I would highly recommend your tours."

Gail Arnold - May, 2006

“Thank you, thank you, thank you! Our Andes Amazon adventure was great! We were so impressed with your staff, lodging, tour guides (especially Darwin in Machu Picchu) - We were very lucky with the weather. We will wholeheartedly endorse your tours. Thank you for your follow-up.”

Helen Riedstra - May, 2006

“The trip was great and your office did a very good job of having people there to greet and meet, as well as sharing information to make our stay enjoyable. I so enjoyed South America and the people. I look forward to traveling there and seeing more some day. I will share your name and address with friends and contact you again when I get ready to travel again.”

Hess Dyas - September, 2005

“When I talked with you about planning a trip to Machu Picchu for my grandson, Keagan and me and that the trip had been his idea, I knew you were someone special when you sent an itinerary with a cover showing condors soaring above Machu Picchu and the heading, "Keagan's Adventure". Everything you outlined in that itinerary was better than I even expected. The guides were knowledgeable and passionate about their culture and history. Everyone was on time and helpful when meeting and delivering us to planes and trains and vans. And they cut through red tape in airports that speeded up that process. You were so helpful before the trip and now you have shown the same interest in us after the trip, wanting to make sure all had gone well for us. Thank you very much.”

Scott Dowling - July, 2005

“It really was very well done with all personnel and arrangements very good”

Alicia Carmona - April, 2004

Victoria Gomez - April, 2004

"The trip was great. It met all of our expectations and more. The weather was perfect and everything was on time and as planned. The hotels were very good and our guides marvelous.

M arco Gomez - March, 2004

"You guys are awesome! Our Inca Trail experience was superb. My children had a wonderful time and learned so much. Your guides were professional, very knowledgeable and accommodating to our needs. All the camping facilities and hotels were top notch. You did a great job in coordinating and making our trip as smooth as sailing. Thank you"

Jim Glick - November, 2002

"I want to compliment you on my wonderful trip to Peru. I couldn't have asked for a better organized trip than yours! Everything was very professionally run and the guides were magnificent. They were very passionate in their areas of expertise; this made my time with them incredibly worthwhile. I highly recommend your company to anyone who is interested in Peru and learning more about the Incas."

William Hertzberg - July 2002

"I just wanted to drop you a brief note letting you know how well everything went on my first trip with your company to Cuzco and Machu Picchu. Things were smooth and professional, with excellent hotels, ground staff and guides throughout. Your people in the field there were punctual, warm, caring, outgoing and very helpful in every way possible. I couldn't have asked for a better experience from a company costing twice as much."
