What our travellers say

We travelled with Adele and Barbara on an amazing trip through South America, taking us through Bolivia, Peru and Ecuador to the magnificent Galápagos Islands. Adele put months of detailed planning into the trip and had thought of everything — accommodation, transport, flights, wonderful places to eat and experiences along the way. Everything was so well organised that once we were there, there was very little to worry about. We could simply enjoy the adventure, with the freedom to join in with experiences or do our own thing. Two absolute highlights were the unforgettable horse trek through t

Have been on many adventures with Barbara and Adele which are always fun and fascinating. Have spent time being escorted around Straddie, have stayed in luxury in Switzerland and have enjoyed being wined, dined and driven. So easy and relaxing with just the right amount of excitement and adventure. Always come back happy and fulfilled having really ‘seen’ these wonderful locations. Spending time making real connections with like minded women is something I forgot how important it is for the soul. I wait to join them on more of these amazing tailored and unique journeys.

ADELE TOOK ME TO MEXICO!!! I trusted her completely …airfares, accommodation, tours, and restaurants. What a wonderful experience. We went to Chapultepec Castle overlooking the city, that was a highlight for me to feel such history, then onto the markets. In the evening we had a tour of the city, we entered buildings and cathedrals that were built hundreds of years ago, looking at the architecture and gold fittings with the most exquisite tiles. So, so special. One of the most incredible experiences was hearing the drums in the distance as we approached one of the many squares, every Saturday
