Peru
“The trip was amazing. The planning and execution were nearly flawless and it was exactly what we were looking for: a real introduction to Peru, with the cities, Amazon rain forest, and above all the Andes with high-altitude trekking, Inca history, an introduction to the people, culture and cuisine.
The Lares Trek was the highlight of the trip. I can’t express how amazing it was from beginning to end, and I can’t thank you enough for recommending this. The number 1 success factor was our guide - I have rarely met such a wonderfully warm, genuine, knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and just all-around excellent human being. The trek itself was glorious. I was a little nervous about my ability to get through it, but in the end it was totally manageable.
The vistas, the vast spaces, the mountains, the camelids, the people we saw and met - I thought I was prepared but everything was beyond my expectations. I felt a real peace and joy during those walks that I have rarely felt at any other time. The Inca trail and Machu Picchu were also fantastic. These are more touristy and not as awe-inspiring as the vast solitude of the Lares trek itself, but they are extraordinary and we are so happy to have experienced them!
I can barely begin to describe the wonders of the trip and just how good everything was at every step of the way! I cannot recall a vacation that was so smooth and so wonderful, and that is really thanks to Last Frontiers and your great planning, ideas, contacts, and responsiveness to our needs.” - HD travelled in August 2019
Chile/Argentina
“We're safely back from Chile and Argentina, had an amazing trip and can't wait to go again! With two minor exceptions everything you and your local agents had arranged worked like a dream. We loved almost everywhere we stayed, particularly Indigo Patagonia (Puerto Natales), Puyuhuapi, El Barranco (Futalefu), La Escondida (Villa La Angostora) and Antumalal (Pucón). It's definitely a part of the world we want to see more of so I hope we'll be back before long. If we do we'd want to go further south and also to try to get even further off the beaten track.” - CL travelled in January 2019
Bolivia/Chile
“Thank you once again for organising such a wonderful holiday for us!! The holiday had so much variety and we stayed in the most amazing places. I think the highlights were probably the Condoriri hike, the Amazon and the trip across the salt flats and the altiplano. It was nice that you punctuated the holiday with some super walks. It was all truly memorable and a hard act to follow.” - SH travelled in August 2018
Chile
“I just want to thank you for your part (and your local partner in Chile) for making our holiday in Chile such a memorable trip. It really was a wonderful combination of luxury and adventure which has made the return to the humdrum very difficult. It's very difficult to give any constructive criticism, there isn’t much under your direct control and it would not be realistic anyway to expect perfection in a country of such great wilderness. I would class Explora Hotel (and Patagonia in particular) as more of an adventure than a resort and thanks again for arranging that for us - it was the highlight.” - RB travelled in January 2019
Costa Rica/Panama
“It was fantastic and everything went like clockwork. Your advice was spot on, everyone was friendly and turned up when promised, and each hotel was different but lovely. We will definitely be in touch again for our next trip to Latin America.” - TR travelled in September 2018
Chile/Argentina
“I just wanted to thank you for putting together such a fantastic trip for my mother and I. It was truly wonderful and exactly what she wanted. In fact it exceeded all our expectations and gave us both a very special experience that we will never forget. So thank you once again for looking after us so well and understanding what my mother wanted from this trip and delivering with great patience, care and insight. I hope we can have more adventures with you in the future. Many, many thanks.” - KG travelled in March 2018
Peru
“Thanks for organising our recent holiday, we had a wonderful time and everything went to plan and ran exactly as stated in the itinerary. The organisation of the trekking part of the trip was outstanding - there were only 4 of us in the group and we were taken care of by 12 porters/cooks who came up with delicious and varied food. All the team were friendly and helpful. Thanks again for a wonderful holiday.” - EM&NS travelled in June 2018
Costa Rica
“All transfers by car were on time and with very nice drivers. The hotel staff were charming and we found the concierge service very helpful too. The holiday was a great success, many thanks for organising it.” - AB travelled in February 2019
Chile/Argentina/Brazil
“We had a great trip with so many diverse things to see and do, and many happy memories. Catching up with friends in Valparaiso and Buenos Aires made it personal as well. Sights like Torres del Paine, Perito Moreno and Iguazu will not be quickly forgotten. All the connections worked and pick ups happened as planned - thank you for your excellent attention to detail. The local agencies were terrific and the guides were not just well informed, but good company too. We enjoyed the wealth of wildlife, especially birds, and flowers and discovering the Lake District in Argentina was a pleasant surprise, away from the normal tourist routes and the car hire went well. Our accommodation was good to very good with a few unusual quirky places. We ate lots of good meals and I particularly enjoyed the Chilean and Argentine wines - we were also introduced to pisco sour which should be on everybody’s list! Thank you again for arranging such a very good trip.” - JR travelled in January 2019
Argentina/Uruguay/Chile
“We are now back in cold and miserable London but with many happy memories of a fantastic trip where everything worked perfectly. Thanks again for producing such a memorable trip without any hassle, even all the internal flights were on time! We certainly know who to come to, and recommend, for our next trip.” - DF travelled in November 2017
Mexico
“We had a great holiday thank you. The highlights were the townhouse in Merida, The Haciendas in Santa Rosa and Campeche, Casa Sandra on Holbox and the lagoon side villa in Bacalar. The ability to get in to Chichen Itza early in the morning was invaluable for that visit. We probably liked Uxmal the most given the relative lack of tourists and impressive ruins. Calakmul being so remote and least uncovered site made it less impressive for us. I was also pleasantly surprised by the standard of driving in Mexico away from Cancun.” - VB travelled in January 2019
Honeymoon to Peru and Brazil
“We had an amazing time! We felt like we really got a flavour for South America during the three weeks we were there and were able to see so many things. All the hotels and transfers were really good. We also really enjoyed the private tours we did with the local agent and felt that their staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. Our highlights included our visit to Machu Picchu and staying in the Amazon (seeing and learning about the plants and animals in the rainforest).” - C&GW travelled in July 2018
Peru
“We had a magical time in Peru! All ran smoothly according to your brilliant schedule, enhanced only by the fact that we ended up having a private Mountain Lodges of Peru trek, just the three of us, with our own guide and muleteer. That meant we could set our own pace and squeeze in extras, which suited us all, and everything was a highlight. From the high-altitude foods tasting menu accompanied by nectars and infusions at Mil restaurant on our first day to that first glimpse of Machu Picchu across the valley on my birthday! The sun shone throughout and we managed a pre-dawn sortie to watch the sun rise over Machu Picchu. Our time in the Sacred Valley was amazing too and we had an excellent guide. Your local agent was very helpful throughout but in particular in arranging assistance at Lima airport on our return as the connection time was quite tight and, as you predicted, we weren’t able to check our bags all the way through to London. So a huge success thanks to your superb planning Sue.. I'm now recommending you to everyone!” - ES travelled in May 2018
Galapagos
“I have travelled fairly extensively in the last few years but I can say that the Galapagos is the most unique place I have ever visited and it was my most memorable holiday ever. Like a lot of people I have seen many TV programmes showing the fabulous wildlife in the islands but always thought that the pictures were the result of special cameras and telephoto lenses recording from a considerable distance.
To find the wildlife so very close and so utterly unafraid of humans was breath-taking and I am still having to pinch myself to make me realise it was not a dream. The courtship display of the waved albatross, frigate birds with their red throat sac, blue and red footed boobies, iguanas so numerous that it is difficult not to step on them, snorkelling with playful seals showing off their aquatic prowess and the sedate lumbering giant tortoises will long remain in my memory.
Your recommendation of the Mary Anne was spot on. As you know I had been looking for sometime for a boat that did not charge a single supplement and it was down to you that I found the Mary Anne which ticked this box. In addition, being a sailing craft, it was completely different to all the other boats sailing around the Islands which made the voyage even more spectacular. Everything on the boat was first class from the cabins, the meals, to the wonderful crew. Above all the route taken on this cruise took us to some of the more remote islands where the best of the wildlife was to be found. Other people I spoke to later in my holiday who had been on other more central cruises had not seen half the wild life that we had come across.
As to the organisational side of the trip I have nothing but praise for the excellent service provided by Last Frontiers, from the initial advice and help you gave me in the planning stage to the actual delivery of the cruise. The choice of the Wyndham hotel in Guayaquil was ideal for the short stay I had, very luxurious accommodation with a good selection of restaurants very close to the hotel. I will certainly recommend your company to my friends. Sorry to have written at such length but that is what happens when one experiences the holiday of a lifetime! Thanks again for all your help.” - PC travelled in May 2019
Chile
“We've had an outstanding trip to Chile. We loved all our destinations and were blessed with great weather throughout. Everything about it was fantastic and we were very grateful for the work you'd put into organising it and selecting a range of excellent hotels. It was quite a luxury having cars to meet us at the various airports, and having the back up of local agents. All in all the whole holiday was memorable, and I think we got the balance right with the time spent in the different places. So thanks again, and to the agents and hotels in Chile.” - EO travelled in March 2017
