The Pika trip was a replacement trip that my son Ted and I had originally planned for Bhutan in the fall of 2020, then Covid got in the way. The Pika Trip was completely up to the standards of my four previous Active Adventures trips(Dolomites, Nepal, Patagonia, Machu Picchu). Each of them was a trip of a lifetime experience and the Pika was no exception and it was right here in the USA.
The Austin Adventure guides (Alisa and Steve) were hardworking, accommodating, knowledgeable and flat out fun to be around. As all four previous trips were outside the US, I had found that international travel can be a bit tiring, however once in the hands of the guide(s) you could just relax and enjoy the new world. Surprisingly it was the same on this trip. Once we met the guides it was all “no worries”.
The food….well we ate like kings. If you have not yet had a buffalo steak…well I am long over due for another. The lodging?….a couple of our rooms were almost too nice for a hiking trip. This was NOT camping. :-)
And the scenery, do I dare say was spectacular. Photography is my hobby (some say disease) and the colors….oh my the colors.
Sooo, I am now 75 years old and had in mind that this would be my last Active Adventures trip. Am now rethinking that. All you young’uns out there who might be reading this, if you are debating, 75 comes around pretty damned fast. If you have the means, sign up. It is best way to maximize your trip, have a helluva good time and experience the world around you to the fullest. I guarantee it!

An absolutely fantastic trip. I cannot say enough about how organized and complete everything was. Pablo was a fantastic guide and his love for the Galapagos was evident. We also had the pleasure of having Paolo on the trip and he was terrific as well. I always thought that when I made it to the Galapagos it would be by boat. I am delighted and so happy that this was a land-based trip. I cannot say enough about how much my husband and I enjoyed this adventure. Thank you Active Adventures, Pablo and Paolo.

I felt so lucky to actually get away on a walking tour in these covid times. Revisiting places I hadn't seen for thirty years and getting back into the West Coast bush was pretty special. Our guide made everything seamless and achievable

Everywhere we looked there was something new and interesting to see. From the marine iguanas to the equatorial penguins, to the giant tortoises - we were surrounded by unique creatures and landscapes. This was on my bucket list, and now I know it was for a good reason. Simply amazing!

This trip was always a faint gleam of imagination in the category of: "would it not be great to spend some time on the Galapagos and ponder how Darwin landed on his insights." You can watch Planet Earth and read about it all but to see it with your own eyes is a feast that connects imagination with the real world. This land-based trip with emphasis on the word 'Active' gets you a little closer. And of, course, at the end of the day, all the comforts and a decent meal is there to be enjoyed.
