In the market of travel agencies, there are a lot of companies and options to choose from. But today, a new agency tries to distinguish itself from the others: Flashpacker Connect Adventure travel. This new and original travel agency promises to “providing you with unique off the beaten track experiences around the planet”. Based in Cuzco, Peru, the company indeed proposes amazing programs in beautiful places such as Peru, Chile, Bolivia, Thailand, Iceland and Nepal. The company is growing and new destinations are to come in the future such as trips to Mt Everest!
The company proposes tours in the above countries, mainly treks that can go from one day to almost a month depending on the destination you want to go to and on the circuit you wish to take. Of course, the longer the circuit is, the more expensive it is going to be: from $380 for a day in Peru to more than $2,100 for a 24-day trek in Nepal. Yet, the experience is worth the price as Flashpacker Connect provides an unique set of options when compared to other companies: the groups are small (not more than 10 people for most of the trips), and while they do bring you to the more common destinations, such as Machu Picchu, they also hold their promise of offering more “off-the-beaten-track” activities like treks in Nepal, and it has an extremely competent and cheerful staff.
If you are interested in discovering unique and new places, you must visit their website that will give you a sneak peak of the amazing regions the agency can take you to. It will also provide you with all the information you need to know, starting with all the different options available and more precisely a lot of advice: which insurance to take, what to take with you, and what is and is not included in the price of the trip. The agency recommends to book your trip around 2 or 3 months beforehand to ensure availability.
Overall, you will not be disappointed if you travel with this company. Many of their reviews praise the professionalism of the guides, the amazing places they go to that are not where all tourists go, and the advantage of being in small groups also enhances the good atmosphere between the guide and the other travelers in the group. Furthermore, with such awesome sponsors like National Geographic Channel and Forbes, you can be sure that the young company is definitely going keep growing in the coming years.
So, before everybody hears about them and their “off-the-beaten-track” adventures, experience the amazing experiences they offer before everyone else!
