The Boss’ Pitch: Why Travel With Geographic Expeditions?
GeoEx’s president Jim Sano says: "We’re proud that GeoEx is consistently recognized by Travel + Leisure, Conde Nast Traveler, National Geographic Traveler, Outside, and National Geographic Adventure as among the best travel companies in the world. But laurels are not to be rested upon, and we’re constantly seeking to make sure we give our travelers the best possible experience and exceed their dreams.Here are some reasons we think travelers should choose us:
- Personal service: Geo Ex has built its success by placing personable, individualized service first and foremost.
- Passion: We’re a company, top to bottom, of travel enthusiasts, of map browsers, book readers, and dreamers; we infuse that passion into all our trips and delight in sharing it with our travelers.
- Experience: Our eyes are still full of stars, but they’re also clear: We know that when you venture off the beaten path in search of the most authentic experience, you’re going to encounter problems; in more than a quarter-century, we’ve encountered problems and solved them again and again.
- Innovation: GeoEx has pioneered travel to Tibet and Central Asia, Iran (we were the first American company to run trips there after its revolution), Vietnam, Patagonia, Bhutan, the backroads of Kenya and Cambodia, and the South and North Poles.
- Responsibility: Since our founding, GeoEx has been setting the standard for commitment to careful, mindful, and environmentally and culturally responsible travel in the field and at home. Safety Net: We maintain 8,760 hour per year emergency support for our travelers in the field, and our insurance program, from lost baggage and trip cancellation to medical evacuation, is tops (a claim we’re more than happy to back up).
- Comfort: We’re not fans of discomfort for discomfort’s sake, so we carefully pick the most salubrious accommodations, from city hotels to rural inns. Our boats around the world are built for comfortable exploration rather than floor shows and costume balls. And our treks and walking trips are flawless, with all the cooking, cleaning up, portage, and camp setting up done by our meticulously trained staff."
