When it comes to immersive adventure travel, nothing compares to exploring the world with Active Adventures. We know it's not just about getting to the destination, it’s about experiencing it fully. That means connecting with local people, cultures, and wildlife, and being surrounded by nature so deeply you’re not just admiring the view — you’re part of it.
We’re passionate about creating life-changing, rewarding journeys in some of the most breathtaking places on the planet. How do we do it? With over 10,000 5-star reviews to back us up, it starts with our expert local guides who are knowledgeable, friendly, and truly the best in the business. We take the time to understand your travel style, offering flexibility within each trip, and we handle every last detail so all you have to do is show up ready for adventure. Everything’s included — no surprises — and our small group sizes keep the experience personal and meaningful.
With over 30 years of fine-tuning our itineraries, we’ve designed each trip to deliver unforgettable moments that will stay with you long after you return home.
Our spirit of adventure was born in New Zealand, our home. Driven by a passion for sharing our homeland’s natural beauty, Active Adventures has grown a lot, but we remain personal, down-to-earth, and far from "corporate". You’ll find our headquarters in beautiful Queenstown, New Zealand, with teams in every region we operate, plus our incredible local guides in every destination.
We are a crew of authentic adventurers ourselves (we're out on the trails any chance we get!) and it’s that expertise and local knowledge that powers our unique and exhilarating itineraries.
