Our Rimu trip 14th-27th December was excellent. We did so much in the 2 week period, stayed in such lovely accommodations and were blessed by wonderful weather most of the time. A highlight was Christmas Day and Boxing Day at the remote sheep farm in glorious weather, eating Christmas meal in the evening looking out to Mt Cook across the lake with wonderful clear views. We also loved the kayaking in Marlborough Sounds and Milford Sound and the helicopter ride over the sound too. Jasmine and Kirsten were excellent guides and Kirsten a great encouragement to me the eldest person on the trip and the slowest. The group jelled very well and we had many laughs

Wonderful collection and combination of spectacular scenery, outdoor activities, and good people in a fascinating part of the world. In addition to the rich fauna and flora, we loved learning about the rich history of Patagonia.

So let me start off by saying I hardly ever review things.. But I wanted to make an exception, because the only thing that came close to how impressive the scenery, was the work rate, professionalism and friendlyness of Jasmine and Kirsten. How on earth they managed to do everything they did is beyond me, they certainly made the trip that much more special. I am particually thankful to Kirsten for looking after my mother who is of a certain age! And to Jasmine for her consistent friendly laugh and smile. These guys deserve a raise or something! Thanks once again to both of you, Regards, Andrew

Most excellent trip. I would not have attempted the hikes I actually completed without the help of our fearless guides. They encouraged me every step of the way with kiwi humor and attention. The scenery is mind boggling. Beauty around every corner. We would not have seen or experienced half of what we did on our own. A lot of meticulous planning was done on AA's part to feed us, drive us and get us to the trailhead. I never got lost. Thank you all!

An amazing way to see the North Island. Every day offered something unique and memorable. It was great to see the sights and learn about the history, culture, and ecosystem of New Zealand. The accommodations offered beautiful views and Amelia and Elysse made sure we never went hungry! Thanks for the trip of a lifetime!

This trip was a great way to see all the South Island had to offer. The scenery in the South Island was absolutely stunning. From Franz Josef and Mt. Cook to Milford Sound, all of the experiences were amazing! I couldn't have pictured a better place to spend the holidays. Gary and Alex were awesome guides and made this a trip to remember.

Hiking in Chile and Argentina is terrific. The weather was a little bit of everything but the hiking was always superb. You need to be fit to enjoy the trip but penguins, guanacos, caracaras, rheas, foxes, what must be the world's largest rabbits and, of course, condors are wonderful. Did I mention stunning, granite walls, towers and glaciers?

Where do I begin? Thank you to Active Adventures and Arturo Rojas for the most memorable trip I have ever been on. At first, I was nervous to travel alone to a foreign land, but as soon as I met Arturo and my fellow Active travelers, I felt so at home. The people I formed relationships with were so amazing, friendly, and full of energy. I loved the diversity this trip brought in ALL aspects. You meet people from all over the world, and you see every terrain from small beaches, to mountains, to big blue lakes (my favorite part of the trip) to mystical forests. The weather was a mixture of sun, rain, wind, and snow, and the wildlife scattered about is a great plus. The hikes were full of excitement with a good balance of intensity. Some days were VERY challenging, and others were just long walks in the park. 10/10 would recommend this company and trip to anyone even SLIGHTLY interested in traveling to Patagonia.
