Every year, Travel + Leisure asks readers to vote on the top hotels, destinations, airlines, and tour operators around the globe. Known as the World’s Best Awards, travelers rated tour operators on their staff and guides, itineraries and destinations, activities, accommodations, food, and overall value. We are both thrilled and honored to announce that we have been included in the prestigious list of best tour operators for the third time with an overall score of 95.71, putting Trek Travel proudly in the Top 10 Tour Operators in the World. We were also named one of the World’s Best Tour Operators in 2016 and 2018.
