Local Tour Operators You Can Trust!

Click on a travel provider's name below to view details about the company.

The travel providers selling through Detour's Adventure Travel Marketplace are the best local travel companies on the planet!

Detour doesn't operate any of the trips in the Adventure Travel Marketplace -- instead, we use our many years of experience in the international adventure travel industry to hand select the top companies in each destination. You don't have to try to determine who operates good trips because we've done it for you! The highly screened companies and their professional guides selling trips in the Adventure Travel Marketplace take their jobs seriously, and they know the key to their success is pleasing you, the customer. All of these companies are professional and reliable, and are respected leaders in the travel industry in their own country. Each provider has its own strengths, and offers trips in its own style, allowing you to choose a provider who offers a trip that matches your desires--your dream trip.

All travel providers selling through Detour's Adventure Travel Marketplace have their headquarters in the country/region where they operate trips, and they all practice socially and environmentally responsible tourism. They have implemented programs like dental care for porters, donating money to local schools, and paying living wages to local staff.

When you travel with a local company and local guides they can show you sights and share local knowledge that no outsider could know---giving you an insider's view into your local destination! Of course when traveling with a local company and local guides you may notice some differences from what you would experience with a guide/company from your own country, such as different views of time or details of sharing information about the schedule. These are cultural differences to be enjoyed, and they can actually enhance the experience of your trip, not signs that the guides or companies are unreliable. We suggest you keep an open mind, remember that your guides and tour operator are reliable professionals, and you will have a wonderful trip and a memorable cultural experience too! To really experience a destination you need to interact with local people, and there is no better way than by traveling with a local guide.

Additionally, by traveling with a company located in the destination where you will travel, you can be assured that the vast majority of the money you spend on your trip will make it into the local economy where it provides jobs, stimulates the economy, improves the lives of local people, and helps protect the natural resources and local environment you have traveled to see. When you buy a trip operated by a company based outside the region of the trip, often way more than 50% of the money you spend never gets close to the local economy, and instead ends up in the pockets of people far from your travel destination where it can't have any effect on improving lives and protecting your destination's cultural and natural resources.

To read more about a provider click on their name and you can read about their environmental policies and their company philosophy, as well as view all trips they offer. Not every provider is right for you, but we're sure you will find a provider and trips that will match your interests, helping you get your dream trip!

TESTIMONIALS

We are back from a fabulous time at the Refugio Amazonas! I have nothing but raves about it all! Thanks for your help in getting us to this great place!

-- Susan L, Refugio Amazonas Family Adventure

We just got back from Peru on Sunday. It was a GREAT trip. We thoroughly enjoyed it! The highlight was truly the trek to Machu Picchu. Thanks for all of your help in making the trip very special. Everything went off without a hitch. We were very impressed.

-- Mary Ann, B., Multi-Activity Peru

We had a great time on the Galapagos Cruise. Our guides were very engaging and informative and everything was timed just right. We had the right amount of activity, food and leisure time every day. We are not \"cruising\" people and were apprehensive at first about being stuck on a boat for 7 days but we didn\'t feel \"stuck\" given the number of excursions we had each day and the fact that we snorkeled at least once or twice a day. We also extended our trip on the Islands and stayed at a hotel but definitely would recommend a cruise over staying on the islands. The islands gets very hot and there are lots of mosquitos but on the boat there is shade, wind and no bugs! Great amount of variety of animals and geography we saw. Sad to leave!

-- Wendy K., Galapagos Islands on the Eric, Letty, and Flamingo

I want to say I LOVED the trip. ECOCAMP was divine. Really amazing setting. The mix of people in the group was healthy. We all liked each other enough to dine every meal together.

-- Roshi G., Torres del Paine 7-day Trek
