“Well what can I say! I have never had such a well organised holiday ever. Chimu were absolutely brilliant. We used Craig in Brisbane and he is so passionate about the country that he made me really excited. I can not recommend Chimu enough. Our trip was 8 weeks and everything was organised perfectly. We had 2 flight cancellations but Chimu swung into action and sorted out the issue straight away. At every airport and hotel, we were met on time by our drivers and local guides. Seriously, get onto Chimu and book your Sth American and Antarctica tours. BRILLIANT”
“Chimu (Lisa Easton) worked with my wife and I professionally and quickly right from our intital contact about undertaking an Antarctic expedition cruise. Lisa handled all our many questions and enquiries with speed and grace, showing no frustration at our numerous contacts. She also provided quite a bit of time giving advice (from her own experience of such a curise) on matters to do with clothing, suitable things to take, making the whole exercise for us so much smoother. She wasn't in control of the weather, but it was clear, with blue bird days - just spectacular! It made the whole experience incredibly memorable.”
“Isure is travel company Intrepid. Intrepid cancelled significant section of the trip ie Falklands, in advance of departure date due to their inability to ensure ship arrived in Argentina by published and paid for departure date. Pre departure Intrepid sent can of itinerary to begin cruise in Uraguay. On arrival in Uraguay advised Falklands was being removed from itinerary. Full refund only offered once already in the country and airfares expended. 4 days of travel lost - ie 20% of trip. Only 10% refund received. Then had to battle to receive refund as cash rather than credit.”
“What a pleasure to deal with Stephen : always willing to answer all and every question a first-time-Antarctica-traveler has. He goes above and beyond what I expected! Now I have my fingers crossed that my expedition will go as perfect as its whole booking process ;-)”
“I entered my desired experience and budget and was presented with a choice of several options. One was the perfect choice. I’m very happy with the entire experience and rapid response to my request.”
“Stephen Eastern’s service was A1. Prompt replies to all our questions and personalised our trip with any and all alterations we requested. He also gave us good advice which was invaluable. Chimu looked after everything with our Itinerary. Thanks Stephen and Chimu.”
“It’s our second time around with Chimu. This time Ms Nicila Forsyth has put together a tailor made trip to fit our requirements and she is very thorough, accurate and helpful. Highly recommended !”
“The people at Chimu Adventures have been fantastic to deal with at all stages. All my financial and other random quetsions have been answered promptly and helpfully, making the early part of our trip a lot easier to negotiate than could have been. The web site is excellent ... there's tons of information that is all valuable. Can't wait to actually embark on our Antarctica adventure!!!”
“Lisa Easton worked quickly and efficiently to organise our South America and Antarctica trip scheduled to kick off in less than 3 months time. So, 5 stars for organisation! I will reserve my final judgement of Chimu Adventures until the end of our trip so stay tuned.”
“Stephen did a great job organizing our Antarctic cruise and itinerary in South America. Nothing was too much trouble and he always contacted us to check we were happy with our plans.”
