Despite our generational differences and the occasional accusation (on my part) of my dad being too American and (on his part) of me being too hard on him, we did pretty well! In our own ways, we each embraced this experience and processed it as a new chapter in our lives. For sure, we both came out different people; that’s a given no matter who you are and how far you go. I think we can both agree that we learned so much about each other. We may not spend more than 11 days on any given journey together again, but I can safely say that the last 33 years has been an incredible journey, and Ecuador was just a cherry on top.
Traveling relationships are tender and require extra care, attention, patience, and love. I am so honored to say that I have now traveled internationally with both my mother and father. Each experience was as precious as the last and as treasured as the next. I hope to travel the world with many more amazing people and look forward to meeting new travel companions along the way. After all, we all want to experience this life to its fullest and die happy travelers.
Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
