Civilized Adventures

Expérience négative: Without listing the details concerning Civilized Adventures poor customer service, lack of honesty, integrity and accountability I strongly advise to avoid doing business here

Expérience fantastique: If you want to be blown away, plan your trip with Civilized Adventures. From the minute we met with Amanda, I knew we were in good hands. Everything went smoothly, and I highly recommend Civilized Adventures for your next adventure! Tanzania was the trip of a lifetime!

Expérience fantastique: Great personalized travel trips, all custom created. Staff are amazing and the office is beautiful. Highly recommend if you are looking for a tailor made vacation!

Expérience négative: There is nothing I would recommend more highly than avoiding this company at all costs. Due to their negligence in providing us the wrong wire information, we lost over 10 thousand USD. The manager verified with us that the sales agent did indeed provide us with the incorrect wire transfer information and the agents response to this matter was to ask for another 10 thousand to be sent, no accountability taken. With this, the agent was agressive and dismissive throughout our planning process and in their communication. They have completely put us off wanting to pursue this trip with any company, and certainly not through their agency

Expérience fantastique: This was my first trip to India and I am glad I went with Civilized Adventures. I was hesitant to go on a guided tour as I don't generally like to be herded in large groups. This was not the case with this tour company. Denell Falk, the owner, is a very experienced, no nonsense guide with the right amount of humour. Denell selected extremely knowledgeable on-shore guides who have had extensive training and years of experience sharing their knowledge and love of India. Groups are kept small and ours had 14 very enthusiastic and well traveled tourists. Many had gone with Civilized Adventures on several trips and rated this one as top notch. The accommodation was wonderful and food great, too. We saw all the major tourist attractions but the part I enjoyed most was when we went off the beaten path to see the real India. We saw craftsmen at work, the Sunset Ceremony and Sunrise bathing ritual on the Ganges. The Taj Mahal at sunrise and sunset. The rickshaw rides through the crowded streets of Delhi and the tuk tuk rides in Jaipur were not to be missed. We had lunch in a private home with a descendant of one of the Maharajahs. We visited the opium ceremony at Brahman village, as well as the Guda Bishnoi village who live in mud huts, practice sustainable farming and were the original tree huggers. We also searched for the elusive tiger at Kahna Wildlife Park. I am an active senior citizen and have traveled in South East Asia on my own back in the day, but at this stage in my life I was very happy to have a guide select the posh accommodations and wonderful meals to return to after a hectic day of discovering India. I was very happy to have experienced guides accompany me and explain the culture. One cannot say enough about our on-shore guide, Shaju Mohandas, who not only guided us safely but answered all our questions and gave us a very personal view of India. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who is reasonably fit and is open to the the sights and sounds of chaotic wonderful India.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing Thank you Andrew

Expérience fantastique: Ma femme et moi souhaitions passer notre lune de miel en Afrique, mais nous ne savions pas comment réserver des safaris et tout le reste par nous-mêmes. Andrew de Civilized Adventures a réalisé notre rêve de lune de miel en nous expliquant les options générales et en recommandant des endroits adaptés à notre niveau de confort et à notre budget. Il a ensuite tout réservé et tout s'est bien déroulé. C'était le meilleur voyage que j'aie jamais eu et nous sommes prêts à utiliser Civilized Adventures à nouveau pour de futurs voyages.

Expérience fantastique: Positive: Professionalism , Quality , Responsiveness

Expérience fantastique: Known for adventure trips with leaders from the Calgary Zoo, we have done our Top 3 trips, an African Safari, Galapagos, and Antarctica.

Expérience fantastique: Civilized Adventures is first class all the way! We have done a custom trip to Africa and a group trip to the Galapagos Islands. Both exceeded our expectations.

Expérience fantastique: Dennell et son équipe ont été merveilleusement réactifs et professionnels pour nous réserver un voyage urgent en Inde afin de rendre visite à un membre de la famille malade pendant la pandémie. Civilized Adventures a coordonné tout avec toutes les compagnies aériennes et contacts à travers le monde, à des prix excellents. Ils ont considérablement réduit le stress d'une période très stressante pour notre famille. Merci beaucoup, nous utiliserons Civilized Adventures à partir de maintenant !

Expérience fantastique: Nous avons planifié un voyage d'un mois en Namibie et en Afrique du Sud. Il y avait 4 camps différents, 6 hôtels, 10 vols sur quatre compagnies aériennes, une voiture de location et quelques milliers de kilomètres de conduite, ainsi que des transferts entre l'aéroport et le camp. Tous les arrangements ont été faits par Karen chez Civilized Adventures en coopération avec Wilderness Adventures en Namibie et en Afrique du Sud. Les gens dans ces pays étaient des hôtes exceptionnels, nous faisant sentir les bienvenus dans nos allées et venues. Il y avait beaucoup à voir et nous avons tout apprécié. Ce qui était le plus important pour nous, cependant, c'était que tous les arrangements faits par Civilized Adventures étaient solides. Tout s'est déroulé comme prévu. Les camps ont répondu ou dépassé les attentes. Les hôtels de Cape Town et de la Garden Route étaient parfaitement sélectionnés. Et lorsque des modifications étaient nécessaires à un horaire de vol, Karen s'est occupée de cela rapidement. Si vous cherchez à travailler avec des professionnels du voyage, nous vous recommandons Civilized Adventures.

Expérience fantastique: We planned a month long trip to Namibia and South Africa. There were 4 different camps, 6 hotels, 10 flights on four airlines, a rented car and a few thousand kilometers of driving, plus airport and camp transfers. All arrangements were made by Karen at Civilized adventures in cooperation with Wilderness Adventures in Namibia and South Africa. The people in those countries were outstanding hosts, making us feel welcome in our comings and goings. There was a lot to see and we enjoyed it all. Most importantly for us though, was that all the arrangements made by Civilized Adventures were solid. Everything happened as planned. The camps met or exceeded expectations. The Cape Town and Garden Route hotels were perfectly selected. And when a modification was needed to a flight schedule, Karen looked after it promptly. If you're looking to work with travel professionals then we recommend Civilized Adventures.

Expérience fantastique: Mon partenaire et moi sommes très satisfaits de notre première expérience avec Civilized Adventures. Carling est une incroyable planificatrice de voyages. Elle est compétente, rapide à répondre à toutes les demandes, préoccupations ou questions concernant le voyage, et ses compétences humaines sont excellentes. Elle a rendu l'expérience de planification puis de visite en Équateur complètement fluide et agréable ! Je la recommande totalement ainsi que Civilized Adventures.

Expérience fantastique: Known for adventure trips with leaders from the Calgary Zoo, we have done our Top 3 trips, an African Safari, Galapagos, and Antarctica.

Expérience fantastique: Nous avons passé 32 jours incroyables à Singapour, en Australie et en Nouvelle-Zélande grâce à l'excellente organisation et à l'attention aux détails de Karen chez Civilized Adventures et de leurs homologues, Swain Travel, en Australie et en Nouvelle-Zélande. Notre voyage avait le bon mélange d'activités - randonnée, kayak, montgolfière et expériences culturelles qui ont rendu notre voyage très équilibré. La pratique application Wetu nous a permis d'accéder à nos informations de voyage sur nos appareils mobiles, ce qui était très pratique. Merci beaucoup !
