Testimonials

Incredible scenery, warm and friendly people and an exceptionally well-organized event combined to create a trip of a lifetime.

I can't say enough good things about Ann and Jane. Well organized, knowledgeable and you can tell they are passionate about Rio.

It's a top quality experience. I know Marathon Tours & Travel does a great job at selecting the best hotels and tour guides. This was certainly true for Rio.

Spectacular. The run of a lifetime.

I had never been on safari before so my expectations were through the roof. We saw so many animals and the rangers all seem to have eagle eyes, spotting animals for us. They were so great about stopping, getting the vehicle in a good position for pictures etc. and just so knowledgeable about the wild life.

The support leading up to the tour was stellar.  Ann Haebler seemed always available to help with something or answer a question.  The venue sells itself, it is an amazing package for anyone looking to do the marathon - so many safaris included, we really did manage to see most of the animals.

I’m looking forward to my next adventure with Marathon Tours. I will go just about anywhere!

The Big Five Marathon package offers a brilliant adventure that will challenge even the most seasoned runner but will result in a lifetime of wonderful memories.

I loved the whole trip. I never would have thought to go the Easter Island if Marathon Tours had not offered the trip and I am very glad I did. My favorite part of the trip was the whole day tour on Easter Island, the Moai were amazing.

I loved the peace and spiritual aspect of Easter Island. So remote, beautiful and quiet. I appreciated Jacqui's ability to make each and every person feel very special and customize the experience. She is a great guide, and has a wonderful sense of reading people that is indispensable.
