Dear Zoe,

Just a quick note to say that our trip with you to the Ecuadorean Andes and Jungle was totally sublime. Every detail of the organisation was so thoughtful, considerate and tailor made to our needs – quite a challenge as we were a group of eight people ranging in age from 9-60.

For my family it was a truly transformational journey. It connected us to nature in a very deep way and it was such an honour to live with and share the indigenous wisdom and traditions of the Achuar and Kichwa people. My teenage sons have been greatly affected in a positive way and have already integrated what they have learnt into their daily lives and their future study plans at university.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We will recommend to any person wishing to connect with these people in an authentic meaningful way, that you are the only person who should take them.

With love and gratitude,

Jo Sawicki, Paul Cayford and sons Daniel and Jesse.- London, UK
