Golondrina

PAST CLIENTS FEEDBACK
"Great tour - definately
worth doing the 8days as I saw so
much more!" (Evelyn, Canada)
"Thoroughly enjoyable tour
and excellent value too." (Ralf,
Switzerland)
"The boat, rooms, food and staff
were all great! I would recommend
against doing 5day itinerary "A"
though because the final night in
the hotel takes time away from the
tour and is a raw deal." (Carrie, USA)
"Our 8day cruise on the Golondrina
was fantastic. The boat was lovely
with good facilities and with 14 people
aboard it was the perfect size group
to get to know our fellow passengers."
(Emma Fawcett)
