Once in a lifetime vacation to Machu Picchu

This was our second vacation experience using Lost World Adventures as our travel guide and we were even more impressed with their performance this vacation than the first. Their guides were knowledgeable and very friendly, the travel arrangements were perfect and the guides picking us up were always on time and in most cases early. The hotels we stayed at were first class and the staff very friendly and accommodating. If you are considering a trip to central or South America I can think of no other travel agency that I would use other than Lost World Adventures. Andrew and his staff are amazing.

Buenos Aires, Santiago and Easter Island

I've used the services of Lost World Adventures many times and each time, I'm absolutely thrilled with the outcome. Our trip add-ons to Buenos Aires, Santiago and Easter Island turned out perfectly. The transportation at each point was right on time and the hotels were perfectly located. Thank you, Lost World Adventures!

another wonderful trip-

We have taken several trips using Lost World Adventures. We have found this company to be very well organized and thorough. Our guides on this trip; Alexjandra Oyarzum in Valparaiso, Chile and Maria O'Connor in Buenos Aires were exceptional. Knowledge, friendly and helpful. We will use Lost World Adventures again when we plan a trip to Central or South America.

Patagonia,Chile and Argentina

My wife and I traveled with our grown children to Patagonia, Chile and Argentina over Christmas and New Year. I found Lost World after extensive online research. I booked the return flights, and Lost World arranged everything else. The whole trip went off perfectly, every excursion was well organized, the hotels were excellent, Patagonia cruise could not have been better. Guides were very knowledgeable, with excellent English.
I would recommend Lost World Adventures without reservation. Thanks

Chile Argentina Trip 2015

Lost World Adventures organized our 18 day trip in November 2015 to Chile and Argentina. My wife and I traveled usually with a driver and a guide often in a private vehicle. We crossed the border 4 times starting in Santiago and ending in Torres del Paine. We had an outstanding time!

Accommodations were clean, comfortable and excellent overall. These boutique small hotels served delicious, mostly local fare with a gourmet flair. Hotel staff helped us with travel logistics, printing boarding passes for flights, organizing hikes and side trips and were extremely friendly and fluent in English. (My Spanish is spotty.) 

The local guides were also outstanding…friendly, fluent and fun!

We had timely transfers and flights and always felt the local company had our backs. 

It was a pleasure planning and doing the trip with Lost World Adventures and would highly recommend them and plan to use them again when traveling in the south.

Lost World Adventures is an amazing, affordable travel service.

My spouse and I have taken five trips through Lost World Adventures and have never been let down. In fact every single trip exceeded our expectations. We are delighted to go on amazing adventures that would have taken us months or more to plan ourselves but it was all done perfectly, just for us. We could not have come close to finding the best places to stay, the best guides and personal drivers ourselves. Yet the trips seem as though we planned them because they are so personal. We have trekked through the Amazon jungle, seen amazing birds and other wildlife and been amazed at culture, food, scenery and more at the most reasonable prices. We know that other travelers pay more and get less. That is why we continue to take trips with Lost World Adventures.

Incredibly Professional and Inspiring in Their Knowledge

We went on a two-week Ecuador and Galapagos vacation with my girlfriend in October 2015. My prime memory is the smoothness of the trip; every detail was planned and delivered with the utmost professionalism, meaning we could simply sit back and enjoy the country. Not only did the itinerary reflect my hopes for the trip, it was full of surprises and little touches that helped to elevate it every day. In particular, the choice of hotels was outstanding and the guides were incredibly inspiring with their knowledge and passion. What started as an idea (visit Ecuador and Galapagos) was crafted into something I could never have imagined in advance.

Perfect plan, great trip

Lost World did a top quality job planning our trip to Peru. Since it was our first trip to Peru, we relied entirely on Lost World to plan the trip and book the right accomodations and guides. it was a cutom trip and that guides were first rate, including one who was one of the best ever.
We also had just the right amount of time in the Sacred Valley, Macchu Pichu and Cuzco.
Lost World made a special effort to find a good hotel for us despite a large World Bank convention that was in Lima at the same time

Unfforgettable trip of a lifetime executed flawlessly

We worked with Lost World Adventures in arranging one of our bucket list trips to Machu Picchu and the Galapagos. The guides were outstanding--thorough knowledge and good English. All the transfers were on time and well coordinated. The hotels were first class and centrally located. Great time and hassle free. We were on the Legend in the Galapagos. Again, the naturalists were outstanding.
