I completely did not know what to expect and this just was incredibly amazing. I completely was lucky enough
to enjoy the most incredible guide, Gem. He was attentative, knowledgeable, funny, definitely an asset to the company.
My group was small 9 people including myself. Trip was a total of 2 weeks. I was brave enough to do the camping with 2 others. I do not regret that at all. What an experience!! I loved the refugios, speechless views, sunsets, sun rises, amazing Glaciers and of course experienced the winds!! The other 6 picked glamping, which had a great guide. We all met together again at the end of the "w Trek". The food along the way was perfect! Experienced local dinning, camping food, lunch boxes , lots of choices.
The rides through Chile and Argentina to get to our destinations was great. Got to see many animals, birds, plants on the way. Every little town we stayed in was phenomenal!!!
I already miss my guide and all the great people I have met along the way.
Will definitely do this again, but not without my guide Gem!!

We can't say enough good things about our trip. It was fabulous, fun, challenging and rewarding. Our guides Jess & Jacob were wonderful in that they were very detailed regarding everyone's individual needs. They were VERY organized, had us on the move every day. They made it fun and made modifications if they needed to according to our group. The trip was everything as described on your website. The trails were different each day, the meals were wonderful (Jess & Jacob are awesome chefs), the accommodations were great, transportation was good.............like I said we can say enough good things, we loved it!!

Our hiking group to chose to use Active Adventures based on positive reviews and recommendations from friends who have toured with them. We could not have been more pleased with our choice. My personal experience was top notch. Our team leaders/guides were amazing, the itinerary was indeed full and active, fun and interesting, and took us to the most beautiful places on the island. Lodgings and food was terrific too. The trip was seamless from beginning to end.

The Active Adventure tour was the best I've ever had in international travel. The guides were the best of the best. We got to see the best of the best in New Zealand. I felt like we got our money's worth and more from using their adventure package.

This was my first experience with a guided tour, and it was absolutely wonderful. Jess and Jake could not have been more gracious, kind, and knowledgeable. Jess's cooking was over-the-top exceptional (better than the restaurant food). Jake's easygoing style and vast knowledge of the Kiwi landscape was truly amazing - he entertained us, inspired us, and led us with finesse. I would follow these two young people anywhere.
