This trip exceeded my expectations. It had everything that I wanted in activities and sight seeing. I was looking for an adventure that offered opportunities for myself and my family, without requiring me to be in charge of all the details - this trip met and exceeded my expectations. I liked the variation in activities, the accommodations and food that were provided and our guides were excellent. The small group allowed us the opportunity to interact with others, without having to wait through large group delays.

The pair of guides, Ryan and Emma, were the best pair of guides we have ever had. They were knowledgeable and attentive. They interacted with the group well and made this trip one of our top rated trips.

The 14 day South Island tour was amazing. I personally feel like I got saw a majority of NZ without having to spend hours upon hours of planning. The food was amazing - loved home cooked meals with the group. Some days we did have a lot of extra time in the afternoons- would have loved 1-2 more miles on the easier hikes (for example- the Kepler track). I also wish there was an additional backpacking/hut overnight experience (2 nights alone didn’t feel like enough in the backcountry). I was impressed with the staff’s knowledge and willingness to alter the plans for groups’ interests.

Going into this experience I knew that the hiking would be a challenge. I anticipated seeing majestic views and experiencing the wonders of the South Island of New Zealand. However, I was surprised to be in such a great group of like-minded individuals. I typically travel alone and I've done some intense hiking on many solo travel experiences. Active Adventures delivered on the adventure while the fellow participants offered community. From dinners, to drinks, to encouraging one another along our hiking experiences it was the people that made this experience unforgettable for me. Lastly, the guides were 10/10 amazing. Not only were they a wealth of information, but they were also organized. The guides were also fantastic cooks, as they made many of our meals.

It is rare that an experience, that one expects going in to be wonderful, so far exceeds expectations - but the Active Adventure Ultimate Galapagos Island Adventure did exactly that. I was expecting the wildlife to be incredible, and it was. I expecting the Islands to be gorgeous, and they were. However, I never expected our guides, Diego and Pauloa, to be so great, in every way imaginable. Diego brought so much knowledge, energy, intelligence, and humor to every interaction. He was so much more than a trip guide. He was a friend, a professor (more like an encyclopedia), a motivator, and a leader. Pauloa handled every detail of our "operations." It was truly a well oiled machine. Bags got moved without the guests ever seeing them move. Every hotel, every restaurant, every activity, were all planned and executed flawlessly, thanks to Pauloa. He never missed a single detail. I was awed by the level of expertise (and passion) they each brought to their respective positions.
