My wife and I have had the opportunity to take several bike trips in Europe, all with other tour companies. This was our first trip with Active Adventures and it will not be our last. We had an amazing time, our leaders were awesome, and the itinerary was spectacular.

The Weka trip, exploring the South Island of New Zealand, is truly an amazing Trip of a Lifetime!!! A perfect combination of biking and hiking to the most beautiful, fun and spectacular remote areas that we never would have discovered on our own!

Outstanding guides - they were knowledgeable, polite, respectful, attentive, and fun to be with. We have been on five other bike trips with another company, this was more challenging in terms of activity, but certainly doable and the options enabled one to bike/hike his or her own choice. The mid trip break in Queenstown is perfect. Lots of variety but you could please arrange for more scenery! Simply breathtaking, each day was better than the previous one. Family style meals were relaxing for us and much appreciated.

This Weka trip in New Zealand was undoubtably the best trip package that we have ever been on and we've been on quite a few! Of the 15 best destinations to visit on the south island, I'll bet that we saw twenty of them during our trip. Unbelievably beautiful country, kind, helpful and fit citizens plus our guides were extremely experienced and attentive to each and every one of our diverse interests. For me some of the best highlights were: the ferry ride on fabulous Milford Sound, the bike ride to Mavora Lake through the stunning and primitive country (even in a sleet storm!), the two big hikes up Key Summit and Mueller Glacier for awesome views, skinny dipping in pristine, turquoise Lake Pukaki, group jumps at Castle Hill and hikes through the rain forest around Lake Matheson. Our lead guide Danny was superb in her driving skills along the narrow NZ roadways. Every time we passed a noteworthy spot, she would grab the microphone and give us a run down of the unique NZ vegetation, birds or geology. I found her comments particularly informative and spot on. I would also recommend that folks taking this trip consider running the Shotover River white water raft excursion on their day off in Queenstown. In summary, this trip was a "6" on a "5" scale...!

Can't say enough about how we loved our trip with active adventures! Lovely accommodations. Not fancy but comfortable with excellent locations. Loved the communal meals. We had a special group. Maddie and Danni were fantastic guides. Can't say enough about Danni. Her energy and enthusiasm were contagious. Both ladies had a unexhausting knowledge of the area, flora and fauna and the history of New Zealand and the Moari. What a special pair leading a special trip.

Our guides, the landscape, the food, the itinerary and all the active adventure made our two weeks with AA on New Zealand's south island non-stop enjoyment. Did I mention the guides....oh yes... they were absolutely incredible. They did everything possible to provide us with an amazing experience - they were better than the scenery, which is really saying something.
