Our overall experience was excellent. Our guide, Roy Villaverde, was really great and unbelievably knowledgeable, especially about bird and animal life. Also terrific was Jos

We are an active family of four (son is 20, daughter is 18). We had an excellent experience in Costa Rica with Alex as our guide. He was funny, knowledgable, friendly, and a great photographer. Our driver, Werner, was an excellent driver who made us feel very safe and comfortable in the clean and spacious bus.

Our Galapagos guides, Pepo & Paolo, were excellent communicators and very well informed about the environment of the Galapagos archipelago and mindful of the human culture and environmental history of these wonderful islands. Excellent background on the sea life and how to conserve it for the future. I want to go again!

Loved this adventurous trip; we were a small group of 9 and all got along famously.
Our tour guide Pablo and his helper Paolo were a definite asset to this trip with nothing being too much trouble for either with answers to questions about culture, flora and fauna from Pablo were knowledgeable and well researched and many of his stories made each of the various endeavours entertaining.
The hiking and biking was excellent , not strenuous yet a little challenging at times, with good equipment provided and the necessary safety precautions adhered to.
Ecuador and the Galapagos islands are very safe ; there is little crime and great care was taken with the new Covid rules and I felt secure.
Food was always delicious with plenty of choice in all restaurants catering to special needs also; fresh Fish and Ceviche a definite must try for future travellers!
The accommodation was in lovely little boutique style hotels in all the islands visited, food was always plentiful and delicious with helpful service and we were made to feel welcome by all.
This land based trip for me, was the real way to see the Galapagos islands, it was full of activity and organized days with little time to wonder what to do next. It is definitely suitable for single travellers, I would not hesitate to travel with active adventures again. Thank you

All I can say is amazing!! This was my second time to do the Jaguar Trip and the last time was so great that I didn't think it could get better, but I was very pleasantly surprised that it did get better. The arrangements, the organization and the guide were great! Not a complaint one. Our guide Wilson, was such a great guy! He was so friendly, so easy to deal with, well organized and so incredibly knowledgeable! He really went out of his way to make sure we were doing good and enjoying ourselves. He even made sure we got the pictures we wanted and was great at suggesting pictures that would create amazing memories. The last time I went to Peru it was alone, but this time I was accompanied by my wife and son, and it was such an incredible experience for them to experience. Wilson interacted with my wife and especially my son as though he were family. In fact, when we parted it felt like family parting to all of us!

Just want to say Thanks on behalf of myself and Alan for providing us with such an awesome experience with this 'Takahe' Trip to Queenstown and Fiordland. Jon and Elder were just the best - knowledgeable, helpful, great driver (Jon),fabulous cooks, and all round good guys. We are grateful that Active Adventures kept our trip going, as we were aware there had been cancellations due to travel restrictions, but we felt pretty special and a little privileged to have just 4 of us being looked after by these 2 guys. The other couple were so lovely and we all got on really well. As for the hikes - well what can I say - every day was filled with stunning scenery, beautiful walks, and lucky for us, absolutely fabulous weather (every day!)

This is a very special trip. I've been to many world destinations and the Dolomites totally took me by surprise. The grandeur of the scenery is second to none. Every time I looked up from our hike, I saw a different and more spectacular sight. Also, the people we met were great and our guide, Richard, was the best!
I'd highly recommend this trip, BUT, get some hiking practice in before going. For experienced hikers, this is an invigorating trip. For those that don't adventure out much, this could be difficult. Put some time in before the trip and you'll have a wonderful experience.
