I knew it would be a place like no other, but it still took my breath away. How could I imagine sea lions sleeping on benches like old winos, giant turtles blocking the road, prehistoric iguanas lounging on the beach ...

I loved our Rimu trip. Sally and Graeme were excellent guides. Every detail was covered, they were fun to be around, good cooks and very knowledgeable about New Zealand. All of our accommodations were nice and clean, and I enjoyed the range of motels, hotels, homes and B & Bs. New Zealand is a beautiful country and we really did pack a lot of activity into our two weeks. We hope to return some day!

We were looking for an active guided trip that would involve us in the country. We like to DO things, not sit and watch, and we found it and more. Our guides were astounding!

I have wanted to hike the South Island of New Zealand for over 25 years, and was finally able to do it this year. The Active Adventures team (Cassie and Alex) were absolutely fantastic. For someone like me-- with limited time to plan, but who wants to see the very best of New Zealand-- Active Adventures was the very best way to do this trip.

Hello to all at Active Adventures. We just got home from our Tui trip. This truly was the trip of a lifetime. To begin, If one thing stood out that made the trip it was our fantastic guides. We had Logan and Amanda. While both went above and beyond to make sure the trip - and the food went flawlessly I have to single out Amanda. I could never have asked for a better guide. She has a head full of knowledge about New Zealand that never ceased to amaze. She even went as far as to bake gluten free muffins for my girlfriend. It was her birthday during the trip and she even baked a gluten free cake. Amazing! I really liked the diversity of hikes, bikes and kayaks. It really broke up the trip and kept us motivated. Besides a couple of bruises and some sore muscles we came out of the trip great. I will recommend you guys to all my friends - and to strangers too. We have started planning our next trip to NZ. We are thinking about going back every year. I want to give everyone at Active a special thank you for creating and managing such a great trip!! Brad Zefkeles.

What I will remember is not the places, but the people we met, including our three guides. Most especially, our trip leader, Zacarius de Ugarte, was a true host for Peru, an ambassador for his native country. Places like Peru become real when they are represented by one who "feels" the place in himself. Zacarius's energy was infectious, and his knowledge of all things Peruvian way more than we could digest. Hit by altitude sickness, I might have gone home. His generosity carried me through, and is something I will always remember. He made the trip for me!

There was so much to like about our Tui adventure I couldn't possibly put it all into words. New Zealand is beautiful but what made the adventure so great were the two very special guides we had: Cassy and Laura. Thanks so much to both of them.

Thanks to ACTIVE we were able to enjoy all the wonder that Patagonia had to offer. The Condor trip was excellently curated to ensure that we got to see the most beautiful spots and we never had to worry about a thing (except making our legs work for the hikes! ;)). Cynthia was incredible! She took great care of us and was always offering helpful tidbits about what we were seeing and experiencing. We could not have imagined a better trip or better guide!

I booked a couple of Active New Zealand tours a few years ago, and those were pretty nifty--but the Jaguar blows them out of the water. Hiking the Inca Trail really put the "active" in Active Adventures, and while the Amazon and Lake Titicaca side trips were less strenuous, both were culturally and environmentally rich and engrossing. All our guides were first rate: smart, knowledgeable and with a broad and deep command of English as a second language. This is a first-rate excursion, with high altitudes the only cautionary note.
