Our second Austin Adventures trip was just as spectacular as our first (Yellowstone and Paradise Valley). What made it great were the two wonderful guides that we had (and the fantastic group of fellow travelers). The trip wasn't without some unexpected challenges, like the trailer breaking down and one of our group having some temporary medical trouble, but Mathew and Joel handled them with virtually no impact to our good time.
This is no "laid back relaxing trip". You are going from early morning until night seeing and experiencing incredible sites and activities, while learning about the history and culture of the areas. Just the way I like it.

Great! The guides were outstanding! They met an unexpected challenge head on. (Trailer breakdown) They made a stressful situation look easy. Accommodations and food A+. And a great group of people that we traveled with.

Wow. Wow. Wow!! Bucket list destination for sure. We expected to see wildlife. Boy did we see more than we thought!! Rookeries of blue-footed boobies with their young. Snorkelled over at least 8 hammerheads. Nursing sea lions on every island. Galápagos penguins. Swimming iguanas around us on one snorkel. SO many turtles. Our guides Pepo and Paolo took AMAZING care of us and every detail. We so enjoyed sharing our adventures together and getting to know them. Both are a wealth of knowledge and a HUGE asset to Galakiwi. We can’t wait to return!! Highly recommend this land-based and active tour versus any liveaboard. We felt so welcome on every island and truly enjoyed meeting, talking with and supporting locals. Can’t recommend this trip highly enough. You will truly come back with the best memories of adventure and nature ever. Thank you Active Adventures!!

I've wanted to go to Alaska for years, but I'm not a cruise person. This Active Adventures trip let us experience part of this beautiful state in the ways I like best. I loved the hiking and biking, the Kenai Fjords tour was incredible, and the guides could not have been better. We're usually ready to go home at the end of the vacation, but we were not even starting to get tired of our adventure, our guides, or our other group members. Before we were home, I was already checking to see if Active traveled to other parts of Alaska, because I would like to explore the Inside Passage.

This was my favorite US vacation. The mix of scenery, outdoor activities, and animal viewing was beyond expectations. I shared many pictures with my associates at work, and many of them mentioned a desire to travel to Alaska and asked for my itinerary.

I loved how much of Iceland we were able to see. We lucked out with great weather. The hut to hut hiking was amazing and I appreciated all of Solvi's knowledge and many skills.

This tour included incredible views of the amazing Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks, including a variety of wildlife! We were able to enjoy the vast, picturesque landscapes through our hikes, riding the bike paths, and rafting down the Snake River. Our guides were knowledgeable, fun, and professional. If you are considering this tour, be sure to know your activity level; some in the tour were unable to complete the daily activities while others didn't find it difficult enough. We were active most of the day, but at an easy to moderate level.
