Gap and similar ones. What are your interests? Where and how do you want to go? do you want a working holiday , rough and ready or have everyone else do the heavy lifting?
I am going in november already. I just want to hear what experiences people have had with this company, such as to know what to expect.

I've heard only good reports of GAP. Well organized and allow plenty of time to 'do your own thing' if you want. Women like them 'cause they are safe and take care of them in places where it may be risky for a woman.
Enjoy!!

Going to South America, in November.
Let us know how it goes when you get back. I've looked into that a few times, but can't devote the time needed for that at this point. (SP's are easy as they're for a few hours in a day, trips, even if for a good cause, take me away from work/clients too long)

Whoa! real soon.My experience is in southern Chile and Argentina, but the best thing i can suggest is to check out fi=orunthat tak about GAP and contribute.
Thanks. I have already spent $900 for myself and my companion on vaccinations, malaria pills etc.

Keep the little inoculation passports they should have given you to help with future boosters and redos. The country customs people may like to see them.

Ya, that's the going rate at many international travel clinics in TO.
I had yellow fever, typhoid fever, Hepatitis A and B, the bad news being that there is an outbreak of dengue fever, for which no vaccination exist.

The chance of you getting Dengue is very remote as your not there too long and not swimming in the local creeks and rivers. It's called broken bone fever for a reason as it hurts like hell if you get it, but that shouldn't happen.

I had Vaccinations against Hepatitis A and B 4 years ago, but I neglected to take the booster after I came back. AAaarrrg.

Took a Gap Adventure tour to Africa. Was pretty good but you're really roughing it. Our tour guide was great but we did move around a lot and I wasn't prepared but looking back it was a great experience.
I very carefully chose a "comfort" type trip. I noticed on the website that many of Gap's trips are trekking etc.
