Agent specializing in Wildlife Expeditions

I've been to 80+ countries myself, and have sent people all over the world. But my favorite trips to book are those wanting to find exotic wildlife such as Antarctica, the Arctic, African Safaris, and Galapagos! I specialize in intimate tours in small group tours or small ships.

    So easy and So fun!
    Reviewed By Laura - TX | Traveled to Turkey ~ Europe
    I have always planned and booked my own vacations: Iceland, Egypt, Spain, Italy, Peru....But I doubt I will again. Carly made everything so easy and stress free! The tour with G Adventures was amazing, but Carly was also booked my hotels for extra time before and after the tour began. This was one of the best vacations ever partially because I didn't have to sweat the details! Thank you Carly!
    I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    Smooth sailing in Egypt
    Reviewed By Liz - US | Traveled to Egypt ~ Africa
    I usually book my trips independently, but I knew Egypt would be a tricky one. I meet Carly in the Girls Love Travel Facebook group. Since we are both teachers, we hit it off. She helped me book a 10 day trip through Egypt. She was professional, flexible and easy to work it. I will reach out to her in the future when I feel safe traveling again. Peace, love and travel!

    SERIOUSLY FABULOUS
    Reviewed By Marschel - TN | Traveled to Martinique ~ Caribbean
    Carly was amazing from day one!

    I originally booked for a different destination in Saint Martin but there were some issues with the resort. Carly personally spent hours on the phone to get things resolved and us transferred to a new resort. Top notch personal attention to details and even made us an itinerary!!

    Seriously cannot recommend this lovely soul enough! So helpful and friendly!!!

    Thoughtful, attentive, and detailed service
    Reviewed By Emily - Atlanta | Traveled to Niagara Falls ~ New York ~ USA
    Carly has helped us book day tours on trips we already had planned, has helped us book group tours, and helped me find a tour friendly as a solo female traveler.

    Each time – her attention to detail, access to “off the beaten path” opportunities – and passion for what she does shows through. The packet received for my Egypt trip was color-coded, and really laid everything out so connections, airport transfers, and key contact details were all clear and taken care of. Traveling is stressful – so being able to just GO! And not stress the details was a lifesaver.
    I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    Definitely book with Carly
    Reviewed By Alice - UK | Traveled to Jordan ~ Middle East
    I have travelled with G Adventures a few times before and their customer service has always been great. However, Carly added that extra personal touch. She was available to answer all of my questions whenever i had them and kept me updated on any questions outstanding that were waiting on a G Adventures to answer. This totally kept my mind at ease as i didn’t need to keep on top of anything or chase anybody for answers.

    Carly arranged my airport transfers, extra hotel nights, and excursions and this all went smoothly. She sent me all of the vouchers/confirmations that I needed and reminded me of anything I was missing.

    The added bonus of booking through Carly is also that she has travelled to so many countries and has a lot of valuable travel experience. This meant that any questions I had whether it was regarding appropriate clothes, packing, the weather, cash vs card/ ATM access, local sim card etc, it was all answered from personal experience which is invaluable!
    I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
