"A good outfit with good prices"
"Our trip to Italy was one of the highlights of our life. The trip was so well done. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, and kept our group running like a Swiss watch. The bus was comfortable and the scenery was amazing. What we really enjoyed was the fact that at each stop we had a specific tour guide for that specific city which allowed us to enjoy the experience even more! We feel that we got much more for our money by using Go Ahead Tours, what we got was an experience that will be in our minds forever. We are so glad that we added the side trips to Bellagio, Siena, San Gimignano, Perugia, and especially the Isle of Capri. Each of those places was an experience all on their own. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone wanting to take a stress-free vacation to use Go Ahead Tours, and isn't that one of the most important reasons to go on vacation..."relieve stress"? Of course having the experience of a lifetime is great as well! Thanks Go Ahead Tours! "
"excellent. We did the Montecatini spa trip, 4 girls, and our guide Mary,was great. She was from France but has lived in Italy for the past 25 years and knows her stuff. We really saw a lot and learned a lot and enjoyed this tour. It was not too big, just the right size, the cost was very reasonable and overall, it was one of the best tours I've ever taken. I would love to Get Mary again when I go to Sicily."
"Wonderful experiences on both our tours. Tour guides were beyond expectations!"
"We thoroughly enjoyed our Paris and Normandy and the Loire Valley trip last October. It exceeded our expectations. Our guide was terrific and his knowledge of history really added to our knowledge of the places we visited. In addition, he was very kind and made each of us feel that our needs were important to him. The hotels were comfortable with great breakfasts and the dining venues selected by our guide were very enjoyable. We are so happy we took this trip."
"Memories of my tour come back every time I see an advertisement for travel. We had an wonderful mix of touring, free time, time with newly made friends and quiet time to reflect, review our pictures and rest. Tour guides were knowledgable, fun, and well organized. The small group allowed everyone to hear the guide and get on and off the transports quickly. All participants cooperated and we stayed on time. I am looking forward to planning another adventure!"
"I have taken at least 5 Go Ahead tours. 2 tours to Africa, 1 to the Swiss Alps, 1 on an Italy/Greece/Croatia cruise, and 1 to Japan. All of the tours have been amazing. Great tour guides. Great hotels. Great restaurants. Great itineraries. Having guides speak the language is a comfort. You know that you are well taken care of. Not having to plan where you are staying & all the other stuff is a plus. Just go and have fun. I have wonderful memories of all the trips. "
"It was the trip of a lifetime...all tours were much more than I expected....the people around the countries were welcoming and patient with questions....the countries had their breathtaking moments that pictures do not do justice to and our tour guide,Luke, was knowledgable beyond anyone's expectations"
"I recently took a tour to Israel with Go Ahead and was pleasantly surprised with the trip. The guide and driver were excellent. The accommodations, included meals, and sites visited were very good. The primary drawback is the limited amount of time spent at some sites, but this is to be expected with group travel. The other drawback, probably specific to my group, is that there were over 30 people on the trip; it was a larger group than I was expecting. Nonetheless, I would definitely travel with Go Ahead in the future."
"Go Ahead Tours provides a memorable visit to some of the most beautiful sites in Peru. Our guide stayed on top of everything, ensuring that our journey was without glitches. We had to fly eight legs in 12 days, including our flights from Seattle to Lima. I guess to see so much in such a short time necessitates waiting at airports. I especially enjoyed the several hour bus ride from Urabamba in the Highlands to Lake Titicaca, bucolic scenery with small villages and women in colorful, handwoven clothing particular to their village. The beauty and history of Machu Picchu was worth the crowds and the long train ride, which, actually turned out to be delightful, with comfortable seats, entertainment, and gorgeous views.
My favorite was Lake Titicaca. Our lodge was beautifully designed with wood and stone. Our room was huge and had a view of the lake. We had excellent cuisine, as we did at several of the restaurants on our trip. I decided that Peruvian food is my new favorite cuisine! Hiking, kayaking, and just hanging out made our time at Isla Suasi memorable.
I appreciated the selection of accommodations that were both luxurious and practical. I loved the stay in the cabanas in the jungle, again very attractive and comfortable, yet eco-friendly. I was a little disappointed that I didn't see any parrots or macaws, although the swarms of neon butterflies on the trail almost made up for the lack of birds and monkies.
I don't think I would have changed anything, but adding a day or two to allow for altitude adjustment. Several of us had difficulty.
I would not hesitate to recommend this trip, unless you are prone to altitude illness.

"We loved our tour of Australia and New Zealand. Are guide, Sludge, was excellent. We felt we had an excellent journey. We consider it one our best trips."
"I've traveled with Go Ahead Tours four times and have always been pleased with the trip; both the sights we visited and the great tour directors. The one thing they are remiss in is advertising. Other tour companies bombard me with brochures (more like books) on their upcoming tours but I receive very little from Go Ahead Tours. I plan my next trip almost entirely from these brochures."
"The whole experience was amazing but hotel picks for Paris and Rome could be a lot better. The tour guide was excellent. She is extremely knowledgeable about the tour, history, and able speak multiple languages was very impressive. I would go on a similar tour with same tour director any time. I'm planning on another European tour in 2015 and thinking about using the same tour company."
"It was an excellent vacation/tour. I am confident and proud to recomenf Go Ahead Tour to my friends."
