What our travellers say
Faizal Okhai
Travelled January 2024
Well Planned Journey

"UnWild Planet organised a 2 week trekking trip for 6 of us to Patagonia in Chile and Argentina. The trip started in Santiago and ended in Buenos Aires. They provided us with a comprehensive itinerary, arranged the airport transfers, hotels and excursions. All the local tour operators they used were reliable and efficient. All the hotels were clean and comfortable. In the weeks running up to the trip they were on hand for any questions and advice on what to pack. UnWild Planet were very much part of making it a trip of a life time."

"Travelling with Unwild Planet was brilliant. Rohan and Gunjan personally make sure the itinerary is well thought of and they know the destinations well. The guides are helpful and collaborative. Highly recommended! We travelled to Antarctica, Brazil, Peru and Chile with UnWild Planet."
