Our tour operator G Adventures are often able to book extra services for our guests, such as pre and post hotel nights, as well as airport transfers. These are services they offer as a convenience to you. While G Adventures do not charge a high premium for these services, we have found that it is often cheaper to book these services yourself. Below you will find a spreadsheet with pricing for these extra services along with the single room option.
Airport transfers, where you are met at the airport by a person with your name on a sign, tend to cost roughly twice the amount of an airport taxi. An airport transfer can be very comforting when are arriving late at night in a country where you do not speak the language.
For hotels, online websites (such as Hotels.com, Expedia, Priceline, etc) or booking directly through the hotel, tend to get you better prices than G Adventures is able to offer. Sometimes much better prices! If you book through one of these websites or directly through the hotel, they also often have more lenient cancelation policies than G Adventures can offer. If you wish to book the hotel yourself, please take a look at the spreadsheet below for the hotels we are scheduled to use. Keep in mind, sometimes G Adventures changes the post or pre hotels that we use on our programs. In that case, you may have to a taxi between the old hotel that you booked yourself and the new starting hotel.
There are three advantages to booking through G Adventures. First, It may be more convenient for you to book it through G Adventures than through a website. Second, if G Adventures changes our starting or ending hotel, they will also move your pre or post nights to the new hotel. This way you won’t have to change hotels on location. Third, G Adventures cannot book airport transfers for people that book pre-hotel nights themselves. This is due to their insurance only being able to cover uninterrupted services under their umbrella.
We give you all of this information so that you can be an informed consumer.
Please keep in mind that G Adventures does sometimes raise the pricing of extra services during the year so we cannot guarantee these prices until you book the services. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL 90 DAYS BEFORE DEPARTURE BEFORE BOOKING EXTRA SERVICES, OTHER THAN THE SINGLE SUPPLEMENT WHICH CAN BE BOOKED AS SOON AS YOU SIGN UP FOR YOUR GEEO TRIP. To book extra services, please email travel@geeo.org at which time we will confirm the price with G Adventures and book the service for you. Here is the current information on pricing that we have:
