Our trip to Greece was memorable. Adventure Life arranged for a private driver and daily tour leaders who were knowledgeable and personable. The day we were supposed to return, Greece had a 24-hour strike. Elma handled all the transportation problems promptly. I love that Adventure Life has people with experience in different parts of the world, plus local contacts.

We have used Franny from Adventure Life to help us plan trips to South Africa (with 2 safari lodges), Ecuador, Belize, and Greece. Every trip was phenomenal. Franny will get to know you and what you like - then she plans magical experiences for you! I love having someone who knows my preferences and plans it for me - the trips have not been overpriced and they take the stress out of travel planning.
