Reviews of Journey Latin America / Journeyscape










Ten days of Mayan culture followed by five blissful days on a tropical beach.
We spent ten days exploring Mayan ruins and staying in gorgeous boutique hotels in small Mexican towns at Christmas time, then had five days in Playa del Carmen at a beach resort with pool. Perfect weather and perfectly organised.

A good introduction for a first trip to Latin America
13 days to Chili and Argentina, mainly discovering Patagonia as well as Santiago and Buenos Aires. Some walking but mainly discovering the Glacier Grey and Perito Morino as well as Torres del Paine Park. Ushuaia and the Beagle Canal. This was a group tour then we spent time in BA with family before going on to Iguazu and Yacutinga lodge before flying home.

Journey Latin America organised both the tour and the extension. Good hotels, good guides and everything worked easily. What I liked best was that we had time in all places and it was not rushed.





Central American Adventure
I travelled through Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras and Belize, seeking out volcanoes and Mayan ruins - oh and a few luxury ecolodges to relax by the pool too. It was an amazing adventure, crossing borders by boat (the only traveller going through immigration & on the boat) and by light aircraft again just me and the pilot. I met loads of local people and a few other tourists, learning a bit of Spanish and lots about living in Central America...

Journey Latin America (JLA) arranged my trip, listening to my ideas and putting them into a coherent journey. Mine was a tailor made trip and I had 1 member of staff at JLA to liaise with, who was very knowledgeable and able to answer all my questions. I had all my information as hard copy, e-mail and on an app!





Falkland Islands
2 nights each at Pebble Island, Darwin and Sea Lion Island, and 1 night at Port Stanley gave me a Penguins, sea lions and birds in abundance in their natural habitat.

JLA - arranged an excellent itinerary of seeing the wildlife and overview of the 1982 wartime history of The Falkland Islands in 1 week. Having travelled with JLA before on a small group tour I was confident to travel on my own knowing JLA had arranged everything.





a holiday to remember
apart from problems entirely outside the control of Journey Latin America this was a holiday to remember. from the original discussions a year ago with JLA to finishing up in rio everything we asked for was received.

Super Chilean Adventure
The Itinerary was what we had come up with to make the most of a 2 week trip in a difficult country to get around. Input and advice from LTA certainly helped to refine it and the advice not to do a self drive in Atacama proved to be sound. Inevitably there was a fair amount of travel and flight which eats into the time but despite that we packed a lot in. Starting with a night in Santiago before going to San Pedro de Atacama an a a number of ...
The Itinerary was what we had come up with to make the most of a 2 week trip in a difficult country to get around. Input and advice from LTA certainly helped to refine it and the advice not to do a self drive in Atacama proved to be sound. Inevitably there was a fair amount of travel and flight which eats into the time but despite that we packed a lot in. Starting with a night in Santiago before going to San Pedro de Atacama an a a number of pre arranged trips - deserts lakes Geysers, flamingo and thermal pools all backed by fantastic scenery and lovely accommodation. then off to Puerta Varas for a few days self drive. Maybe not our favourite location but the Casa Mollna was a beautiful stay and the Volcano walk memorable. Patagonia and Los Torres Del Paine really thrilled us with truly outstanding scenery although the number of visitors was something of a surprise and a trip to Laguna Azul provided a peaceful excursion. A day in Valpariso on the way home was a big contrast but we wouldn't have missed it. LTA organisation was key to making it so memeorable

Jouney Latin America





Wonderful introduction to South America.
Journey Latin America provided an amazing holiday which was our first visit to South America. Our guide throughout the tour was fluent, knowledgeable, superbly organised and friendly. All of the local guides provided for the tours were also excellent. It was a "discovery" tour which they had warned would be brisk but it was very full on with limited down time and some very early starts and long days. From the point of initial enquiry to the ...

It was a "discovery" tour which they had warned would be brisk but it was very full on with limited down time and some very early starts and long days. From the point of initial enquiry to the completion of the holiday the company were spot on. They were recommended by friends and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.
