Lead Adventures can also build you a custom made experience that gives you a unique opportunity to live and work in a local South American community making a real difference to people’s lives and the environment. Share with like-minded volunteers, quickly make new friends and experience Ecuador as it really is.

Why Choose Lead Adventures?

Exceptional Local Support:

They know how important it is to build mutually beneficial relationships with local resources.

As a South American (Ecuador) based company the quality of their local contacts is second to none. This allows Lead Adventures to offer superb and efficient services to their participants.

Their bilingual, experienced local staff are always there to help you get the most out of your experience as a participant in their programs.

Security and Experience:

Their superb local knowledge and contacts mean they have the safest and fastest security and emergency procedures in the unlikely event that an emergency arises.

The fact Lead Adventures are the best in the area is proven when other tour provider companies use their local experience and services to solve their own issues.

Value:

This is another area where being local means an advantage.

Lead Adventures administrative costs are much lower than agencies based in Europe or the USA. This enables them to offer lower prices for their programs compared to other international travel agencies.

Additionally, as they are the operators of these programs rather than the agents, they can guarantee cost efficiency and offer you a great value.

True Local Impact:

You will be really making a difference to the area you visit: Most of Lead Adventures’ revenue goes directly into the projects they support, that means local economic impact rather than marginal compared with how major tour operators work.

They support local environmental impact throughout our volunteer projects in Galapagos and the Amazon region. As a South American company, based in Quito, Ecuador, Lead Adventures have the local knowledge and capacity to choose the best managed projects.

No wonder they love Lead Adventures!

Guernsey Travel

Guernsey is a small island with a big heart. Nestled in the middle of the Channel Islands and within sight of the French coast, Guernsey retains much of its traditional charm alongside the identity of a modern and vibrant British island.

Loyal to the British Crown, Guernsey and the rest of the Channel Islands became British isles during the Norman conquest, creating a unique Anglo-French history that survives to this day. Today Guernsey is a self-governing ‘Baliwick’, incorporating the smaller Channel Islands of Sark, Alderney and Herm. There are many quirky and charming features on the island, including unique Guernsey stamps and the island’s own currency – legal tender only in the Channel Islands (don’t worry though – British Sterling can also be used!)

Holidays in Guernsey can be spent shopping and exploring in the town centre of St. Peter Port, exploring the lush countryside and coastal cliff walks in the south and west of the island, or lapping up the sunshine on one of the island’s beautiful beaches. Visitors are treated to a wealth of natural features and experiences to invigorate the senses and relax.

Guernsey is a naturally abundant source of fantastic food. Both locals and visitors are treated to many Guernsey specialities, including fresh Channel Island seafood, a wealth of locally-grown fruits & vegetables and Guernsey-brewed ales. The island features a great selection of restaurants, bars and cafes for al tastes, from hearty pub fayre and contemporary dining to beach cafes and award-winning hotel bistros.

A Guernsey break is an ideal antidote to stress; a different world only an hour from the UK mainland.
