We have traveled with other agencies and adventure group travel to many places throughout the world, but never before have we had this kind of personal service.

The biggest benefit to using Fred is that he and his people are specialists in the locations they guided us.

Each time we traveled to a destination we had a new local guide who knew the ins and outs of the small towns, the national parks, the trails, the flora and fauna, the shops, the restaurants and more.

If there was ever a glitch, we called or texted Fred or John at the office and the response time was almost instantaneous.

I like to be pampered. And Fred took care of us! The hotels were lovely and sights were beyond amazing.

Rating: ★★★★★
Planning 8 days in a foreign city can be overwhelming, but Fred and his colleague John at Exploration Journeys made our vacation in Buenos Aires stress free.

From the moment we landed at the airport, everything was perfectly synchronized.

All our transfers and flight check-ins were handled for us. Drivers were always on time, and the Buenos Aires guides were all excellent.

The custom guidebook they provided was so full of helpful information.

Highly recommend for anyone who wants a worry-free vacation.

We had an awesome trip to Argentina, and Fred and John made the trip easy and stress-free from start to finish.

We really appreciated their responsiveness both before and during the trip and their attention to detail.

The tours and tour guides were all great, and the pace of the trip was perfect.

Their detailed travel book made it easy to prepare for each activity, helped with dinner choices, and even made the difficult task of packing for varied climates and activities easier!

When our flight into Argentina was delayed and we were too late for our tour of Buenos Aires, the tour had been rescheduled before we even arrived.

We’ve already told several friends to consider Argentina for a future vacation and to work with Exploration Journeys to plan their trip!

The coordination of pick-up and drop off was excellent. We never had to worry and that made it much easier for us.

Accommodations in each city we went to was wonderful and very clean.

Working with Fred and John made our travel so much easier.
