You have gone from a website (I wonder if it's a scam??) to almost personal friends. You were so helpful in setting up our trip, even when we wanted to deviate from the usual scheduling. Your written communications were professional and timely. And most important, everyone we talked to was friendly, helpful, and when you didn't have an immediate answer to a question, you found the answer and called back. Is there a score above A+?
You arranged our reservations with Quark for the Antarctic Tour. The trip was all it was advertised to be and all we could wish for. We wanted to experience the Antarctic, with the wind in our faces, penguins at our feet and our feet on the actual continent. We did not want a floating palace with bingo and swimming pool. We got the right tour for us and would recommend it for any other able-bodied, independent minded traveler.
Adventure Life arranged that we be escorted from the international Buenos Aires airport to the national airport. Our escort, Joe, was a highlight of the trip! It's hard to believe we spent less than 2 hours with Joe (an hour on our way south and an hour on our way north two weeks later). He is so pleasant, a delight to visit with, helpful and courteous. I just can't say enough nice things about him.
Since we stayed in Ushuaia two nights after the tour, you arranged for us to stay at another hotel. Posada Fueguina was just right for us. It's a small hotel, with the advantages and personal care of a bed and breakfast, but with the privacy of a hotel. We would definitely recommend it. It is uphill several blocks from the waterfront, just a pleasant walk for us, but too demanding for some travelers. And yes, they include a lovely breakfast, personally served in a lovely breakfast room.
Would we like to go again? You bet!
Meanwhile, we'll happily tell our adventurous friends about Adventure Life.
Kelly and Rhenee were excellent to work with on planning our trip. The logistics all worked smoothly and everyone was friendly and on time. Our accommodations were very good, particularly the incredible Patagonia Camp in Torres del Paine! Our guides on every excursion were outstanding and made the hikes memorable! Overall we had a wonderful trip with incredible memories!

Adventure Life is definitely a first-class safari tour company, and our representative was Franny Friesz. First of all, she responded immediately after we contacted Adventure Life. We told Franny that we had never been on a safari, and she was more than eager to offer a mountain of information about the trip. She informed us fully about all the ups, downs, and all arounds! She even prepared a number of packages for us to review -- even after we made changes to the areas we wanted to explore. Friendly, helpful, professional, and extremely knowledgeable -- these words describe Franny, and what a wonderful trip she prepared! We couldn't have asked for better service than Franny of Adventure Life. We HIGHLY recommend her and her outstanding company! Bon Voyage!

The staff at Adventure Life made planning my family's trip to the Galapagos Islands as easy as possible. They listened to what we were hoping to experience and made thoughtful suggestions about how to accomplish our vacation goals while meeting the needs of travelers ages 17-76! They patiently answered questions and follow up questions in the months leading up to the trip. They helped us trouble shoot and customize the trip in every way possible. The logistics involved in traveling from Boston to the Galapagos are innumerable. The Adventure Life staff helped us arrange every detail and the team they assembled in the Galapagos was tremendous. I have never done a trip this big before and after working with Adventure Life this time--would not hesitate one second in working with them again.
