    The trip was fantastic. We especially enjoyed Galapagos Safari Camp, which was easily one of the best places we ever stayed. All the guides were amazing as well. We also appreciated that everyone has been informed about our dietary choices. Overall, a great experience.

  • Trip to Brazil

    We have previously gone on several trips orchestrated by different companies that we hold in high esteem, and the service that Naya Traveler was on par. We were very satisfied with the itinerary you planned for us in our extended visit to Rio, and even more satisfied with our tour guide. We are experienced travelers and have had guided visits to numerous countries in Asia and Africa, and she ranks with the best guides we have encountered.

    We had an amazing experience going to the South Pole. It is a long and complex trip and working with Marta and Naya Traveler made it all easier.

  • Journey to Argentina

    Throughout our entire trip Naya Traveler had thought of everything. We were met and escorted from airport to hotel everywhere and our guides were great company and always well informed. During the planning stage Sarah was more than happy to answer our many questions and really understood what kind of hotels and experience we wanted from this holiday. For both my husband and I this has to have been one of our very best trips and we would recommend Naya unreservedly.

    I decided to go to Oman four weeks before my flight departed. I had no contacts in the country and no time to plan, but I knew what I wanted out of my trip.
