I'm so glad my friends and I booked our trip to Machu Picchu with WAG and Shane! Every detail was taken care of and all we had to do was show up and have a good time. The local guides WAG partnered with were a huge part of our trip, helping us learn so much about history, significance and details about what we were experiencing. We were a large group (10 people), so it was so nice to have all of the transportation, hotels and trail coordination planned out in advance. I can't imagine our trip with any other company!

I had the best trip ever to Peru with Shane. He coordinated everything and we had a fantastic guide and group who helped us navigate the Inca trail. There is nothing more I could have hoped for and I am so ready to go back to Peru. Thank you for everything!

My husband, Bob, and I were not sure what to expect. I was signed up to hike Kilimanjaro, WAG put a private a tour together for him while I was hiking, after the hike Bob and I met up again and did a safari with the rest of our group. Everything was perfect. The guides who assisted me and our group on the hike were incredible. Bob had an experience of a life time on his private safari. We both enjoyed the safari through the Serengeti with our group. WAG put together itinerary for Bob and I to spend time with the gorillas in Rwanda. The gorilla trek was well worth our extra stay. Thank you WAG for putting together a trip of a life time!

Our trip to Galapagos with WAG was a fantastic travel experience! Our naturalist guide was a native of Galapagos with a wealth of information and a unique perspective. The trip was seamless from takeoff to landing! Thanks Shane and Barbara! Looking forward to traveling with you again soon.

I had the best experience with Shane and Barb on WAG Galapagos 2023. After a very stressful year this was the best stress free adventure. They were both so helpful. The trip was both relaxing and active at the same time. I feel so lucky I was able to share this amazing adventure with old and new friends. I highly recommend Worldwide Adventures and Shane!

I can't think of a better way to break out of Covid lock down than a trip with Worldwide Adventure Guides!!

We traveled with Shane and Barbara and a great, small group of folks to Ecuador and the Galapagos; what a trip! I'll never forget waking up to a spectacular view of Cotopaxi right out our bedroom window, the natural beauty and the close access to wildlife of the Galapagos, or the wonderful hospitality of our new Ecuadorean friends. Snorkeling with penguins, sea lions and at one point, 20-30 sea turtles, made me feel the wonder of this beautiful natural world like a kid again!

The best compliment to Shane's and Barbara's leadership is they led the trip such grace - if navigating Covid test requirements for a group of 16 was stressful, they didn't show it. I highly recommend WAG, and can't wait to put another trip on our calendar.

I like sitting on a tropical beach drinking margaritas but this pales compared to adventure trips with WAG. I've done 4 trips with WAG on 3 continents and surly will do more. They have all been amazing trips. I remember every day of each of these trips; summiting Kilimanjaro, overnighting in the Serengeti, trekking in the Himalayas and mountain climbing in the Andes. I've also been fortunate, meeting some wonderful fellow travelers. WAG does a excellent job organizing the trips with great locations, great accommodations and the best local staff.

Shane and his Peruvian team made exploring the Cusco area delightful. The Machu Picchu trip offered an education in the Inca culture, adventure, and breathtaking scenery. WAG knows how to make trips fun, exciting, and sometimes challenging. I’ll be back for another adventure!
