Buddy

“I think this trip ranks very high on my trips of a lifetime.  Beth and I were excited when we heard about it, and we signed up and began to train and purchase the correct equipment and clothing.  We did all we could to make this trip a success.  It turned out to be just that largely because we did our job, and we had a great trip leader in yourself.  You planned every step and kept us informed daily.  The lodging and food were top-notch and very memorable.”

“Michael is fabulous in all respects, and he really made this trip transformative for all of us. His maturity is well beyond his years, his intuition is spot on, his planning and execution was flawless, he made all of us feel comfortable and carefree, he changed plans on the fly when necessary (weather, unique opportunities), and he seemed to connect with each traveler on a personal level that made our experiences so much more than what we anticipated. His recommendations of what foods to try, what to look for in each town, what experiences we might look for at each juncture of the trip, and all of his other suggestions and explanations to help us stay in tune with the local surroundings made it seem like we had been there before. We are indebted to him for the experiences he created for each of us.”
