      Patagonia was fabulous! The group was wonderful with no drama and lots of laughs. And the area is gorgeous.

      What a memorable Thanksgiving in Bali! We snorkeled, went bike riding, visited temples and a local family's compound, and visited the Bali swings. The water palace was spectacular! 1000 Treks, Leigh & Eduardo always come through with unique, fun, affordable itineraries. Looking forward to my 5th trip with them - Australia!
