"We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Australia. The itinerary covered a lot of places we would never have discovered on our own. Our Tour Guide Sladje was great! Her little personal touches such as her "peckish treats" were a delight, and we gladly took advantage of the extra excursions she personally added to the tour. The only downside we personally felt was, as non-swimmers and non-snorkelers, we would have preferred not to have been made to spend an entire day on the Great Barrier Reef. While we enjoyed the helicopter flight over the reef, the glass-bottom boat and semi-submersible were disappointing. We would have preferred an option to spend more time in Karunda and the rainforest. But all day on the reef, not so much. Our other disappointment (and certainly not the fault of Go Ahead Tours) was no seeing more of the wildlife in the wild. We expected to see more kangaroos and camels... never saw one camel. As for Karunda, I think you should add an optional cost of the koala experience as an optional advance payment. I would have been more able to add that to our total cost and be able to include my husband if we hadn't been hit with the extra that day. As it was, I did the koala holding, but he didn't want to spend the extra money. Otherwise, we enjoyed every excursion we went on. I would definitely recommend Go Ahead Tours to our friends."

"The organization of EF GoAhead Tours was incredible!
Every detail was so well planned; the accommodations, meals, transportation- just perfect!
To me, the BEST parts of the trip were the local guides and the wonderful group we were with; truly incredible how well the group bonded!
I can not say ENOUGH about Snezana, our tour leader; she was the BEST! She was so attentive to our needs, informative, & just went above and beyond in every way!!!"

"It was truly one of the best"

"Fantastic history, views, food, wine and people! And on top of that we had an A plus tour guide Raquel that went above and beyond for our group!"

"The itinerary of this tour was well planned with respect to the need to cover significant sights in only two weeks. The tour guide was excellent. She was efficient, concerned about the welfare of her fellow-travelers and had a good sense of humor. However, too much emphasis was placed on side trips at additional cost. If a person did not take all these side trips, they missed out on some enjoyable and educational experiences. Many of these could have been incorporated into the basic trip since no itinerary alternatives were provided for those who elected not to take these trips. While most of the hotels provided excellent accommodations, a couple of the hotels were not up to par.

"We had a great time on our Go Ahead tour to Ireland. They pack of lot into one week to make the most of your trip. Galway, Cork & Dublin are the main cities, but we saw so many towns and smaller cities and castles. Kathy our tour guide was great and kept us on schedule. At times it may have felt a little rushed but we went out of season when some of the attractions close early, but we still managed to see them all. When we got home and went through everything that we saw & did it was worth it. I love Ireland the scenery, the people, the food and of course the beer. "

"We chose the perfect time to visit Sicily and, on our own, Naples. It was sunny and in the 60s in late February and early March and the choking crowds that one encounters in Italy slightly later in the year were not yet there. Our overall and local guides were knowledgeable and personable. We also had the great good luck of having a warm and wonderful group. Hotels were fine to spectacular, as was food. Itinerary was fine. A note to all: despite traveling a lot, we planned to arrive on our own the first day of the trip, which we thought we did. We forgot that the first date of the trip is the day the flight DEPARTS the United States, not the first hotel night date."

"EFTours’ focus in Germany is on one of the many wars in human history...and tourists would like to see that part of Germany that common tours ignore: its incredible musical and artistic world. Stop with the war sites and give us Bach and Bauhaus. I’m 73 – that’s “nearly dead” - and am too young for WWII to be of any interest. Disappointing choice of excursions. "

"From day one, this trip was filled with incredible surprises. As I stated in my 1st FB Post: Iceland: Land of magical, mystical adventures round each turn.” Such a variety of geological formations. Such incredible glorious beauty & power, such interesting history, both cultural & geological. Almost a study of complete continents in one small island as the North American tectonic plate collides against the Euro-Asian plate. Magnificent, powerful waterfalls supplying energy to the boiling springs & geysers providing heat, even the by-products of geo-thermal energy producing the therapeutic & restorative Blue Lagoon. The Icelandic gods of Oden & Thor brought us remarkably mild, clear blue skies to take incredible shots doing partial justice to the grandeur of this land & people & witnessing The Northern Lights. What hospitality from our knowledgeable, funny guide, the best in the workd, Gunnar Robertsdottir, to all who served us or passed on on the streets & byways, we were welcomed as Home folk & invited to experience the best of this culture. We found Loki & Floki, Jon Snow to ice caves & Glacier ice & snow. We heard stories of Ravens perching on new-claimed Land to descendants still on the RR roof on the top of the world. From stories of The Hidden People & Elves hiding in volcanic caves & near black beaches, we were awed. From hydroponic tomatoes & delicious bread, to a rare breed of horses with a gait all its own, we had an experience extraordinaire. This should be on your bucket list for sure. "

"It was great. So many experiences.
The tour directors were wonderful.
Saw amazing things.
Rooms were very comfortable.
City guides were knowledgeable.
Would do it all over again.
Two thumbs up."

"Great tour director, drivers , lodges and itinerary all brought together people of Tanzania and new Tour friends for a trip of a lifetime for us!"

"Enjoyed the trip. Would do it in a warmer month next time."

"This tour was focused on nature: wildlife, birds, waterways, plantations, gorgeous flowers, rainforests, mountains, and a volcano. Accommodations were wonderful and the food was good. Our tour director, Rafa, was fantastic--very knowledgeable, helpful, and humorous.
"

"A very good tour. I learned and saw a lot which is the point in traveling. The tour directors were excellent and knowledgeable. The transportation was excellent and safe. Unfortunately, the hotel rooms were either too hot or cold without air conditioning or heating working. I would also suggest picking restaurants that offer at least one vegetarian dish on their menu. The restaurants in Spain acted like they were completely unfamiliar with a vegetarian diet and this is 2019! One restaurant in Spain served the vegetarians (I was not the only one on tour) a dish of eggplant and mushrooms and called this a vegetarian dish. This was most unfortunate because it was not even prepared in an appetizing fashion. However, overall I would rate the tour very good and I would recommend it for others. "

"Met all the objectives - northern lights - Blue lagoon - golden circle! connecting flights on United were both delayed 24+ hours through Chicago - exhausting and missed entire first day of tour. As a result missed out on networking with other single travelers. "
