The trip went exceedingly well. All of the guides and drivers were very good and they were always on time meeting us at the airports and for the activity planned. They were also very attentive to my handicap and helped me numerous times during the trip. We were also impressed that they all had some knowledge of local birds and were able to contribute to our interest in birding. You did a great job in putting together a super itinerary. The highlight of the trip was the three days on the catamaran with Fred and Marina; they went above and beyond in taking care of our every need. The food onboard was the best of the trip and the catamaran was very comfortable. This was a wonderful trip we will never forget.

The travel adventure was beyond expectations. The activities and adventure were customized to our interests and it was an excellent trip that pleased everyone. The accommodations were luxurious, particularly in the Amazon jungle and Rio. The guides throughout our tour were top notch; they were familiar with their local sights, easy to spend time with and available whenever needed. One of the highlights of our tour to Brazil had to be swimming in the Amazon River with gray and pink dolphins. If we could, we would have extended the trip and had more time in Rio.

We loved our time in Chile & Argentina, particularly Patagonia. The weather was amazing and it was wide open with spectacular natural scenery, as well as incredible wildlife and their young. The hotels were all great, but the properties in Patagonia were really breathtaking. All of our guides were awesome, knowledgeable and were bending over backwards to accommodate us. A highlight of the trip was witnessing the glaciers on the boating excursion - you really have to experience it to understand its grandeur.

We are so happy with our recent Iceland holiday. I think it's probably worth nothing that both of us would have been happy to spend more time there - that's a measure of a good time! Accommodation was excellent. There is nothing about Deplar Farm that should have less than a rave review. Their helicopter took us over the mountains to the whale watching (wow!) and back along the coast. Fantastic! Each day seemed to lead to another memorable experience. There was also not a single person with whom we interacted that we did not wish for more time but it would be remiss of me not to flag three outstanding individuals: our snorkeling guide in the Silfra fissure, James; our helicopter pilot, Andri; and our tour guide and companion, Atli who was 11 out of 10.

We are having an amazing adventure. Everything has run like clockwork. Quito was fascinating, the hotel was beautiful, and our guide provided us with many insights. The Ecuadorian Amazon was truly fascinating. Everything about the lodge was amazing, from our arrival to the food to the jungle activities. We were exhausted yet exhilarated by the end of the day, and we got to see a lot of birds, snakes, and insects. Blue Parallel has exceeded all of our expectations, from planning to execution. Kudos to your team!
