We traveled to Morocco with A+R earlier this year and had a very poor experience. Our guide was generally indifferent (did not keep the group together on walking tours so often spoke when not everyone could hear, often put off questions for "later" and never followed-up despite requests, and often left out information that we later heard from others that could have been very useful to know), travel was in a bus barely big enough for our group (so it was quite cramped), and the itinerary was not followed (things were just left out with no explanation). Several times traveling to meals the guides even had trouble finding the way to the restaurant. Very poorly prepared. Many other issues - enough for a several page note to the company post-trip. And the company's post-travel follow-up was not outstanding. They did at least acknowledge that they had perhaps not vetted this trip to an appropriate level. Others on the trip who had traveled with A+R before said the trip was an aberration, but we will not risk it again given the poor follow-up and the alternatives available.

Excellent host and local guides. Got to know that there is more to Panama than the canal. Loved going to the Embera Village.

The Panda's were great and the overall trip was handled very professionally. The Guides were excellent, and took us right to the Airport, got our tickets for us, no waiting in long lines, they were very knowledgeable about the History of their Province, and on time.

I just really thought the trip was very good. This was our second Alexander and Roberts trip, and we have been impressed each time. I highly recommend your company to everyone. We love the small group feature, also. As I prepared for this trip, Melanie Delworth was also very helpful.

The tour guides were fabulous and the hotels were first class. We saw quitzals (three) of them in Monte Verde because of our guide.

Just about everything was great. Our guide Leo was excellent! A+R needs to ensure that all guests are capable of taking care of themselves and their excess bags and not have the guide take care of them.
