I was anticipating that my trip to New Zealand would be the trip of a lifetime, but it ended up even better than I could have imagined! From getting to know all of the facts about New Zealand, its wildlife, the places, my guide Liz and the other travelers, this trip was perfect! I highly recommend the Rimu trip to anyone looking to get out for a couple of weeks and enjoy life.

Professional and personal guides. Unique accomodation. Awesome side tours. Your professionalism with advice prior to joining the tour whilst under duress after the earthquakes is to be commended. Congratulations on an excellent format. This trip restored our souls. We will be back to do the North Island and some more kayaking and hiking in the next twelve months.

Cynthia Valaquez(sp) was a fabulous trip leader. Our group of 10 met up in Cusco, a delightful city and after a few days of exploring, hiking and biking we went on to climb the Inca trail to Machu Picchu, an amazing journey in itself. It took 3 nights and 4 days...the porters were incredible and the food was delicious. Machu Picchu is a dream city in the clouds of the Andes mountains. No picture does it justice. Now I understand the word "mystical". We also went to a lovely jungle lodge in the Amazon Basin and to Lake Titicaca where we visited several islands, kayaked, and spent time with a family on Amantani Island. The Uros reed floating islands were like nothing I have ever seen. I have a real feeling for the country of Peru and its wonderful people after this trip with Active South America.

Cannot say enough about how well organized and thought out this trip was. Cynthia was the most amazing guide and we grew to love her. Hope we can return the host role and have her come to Canada and stay with us. I have over 1000 pictures and will share them and some of our experiences

The Manuka trip gave me a very broad look at the S Island. I generally don't care for tours, but I saw and experienced much more than I would have if had I travelled independently. Hats off to Lina and Heather. They are very engaging guides.

Fantastic Trip. The best way to see New Zealand. But the guidance on the necessary fitness level required for the trip needs to be more clearly explained. We had one person on the trip with a knee injury that should not have attempted the backpacking trip.

By using the best tour guides in the Islands, you are sure to experience all that The Galapagos has to offer, from face to face swimming with sea-lions to the barren mars-scape of Sierra Negra to wild giant tortoises! Incredible!

What a fun trip! Each day was filled with a great variety of activities, from hiking to snorkeling to learning about the islands and seeing all the unique species of wildlife. If you're an active person who likes to learn about a new place while on vacation, then this trip is the perfect combo of exercise and education.

The Rimu trip with Active New Zealand has been one of my best trips. It was the best way to see and experience the natural beauty of New Zealand. From the well-planned itinerary to the guides, lodging and food -- every day was different and very special. I am very happy that I did this, and next time I will be back with my husband!

This trip was awesome. All of the beautiful landscapes and the amazing cultures and arts were cool. I loved all of the llamas, vicunias, and alpacas. I can't believe that I actually went to Peru!

What a fantastic trip - celebrating a big '0' birthday. Our guide, Zambo, was incredibly knowledgeable but also refreshingly honest if he didn't know the answer. He's going to look into the reason why the marine iguana, which is supposed to be vegetarian, was helping itself to the fish at the market in Santa Cruz! Evolution in the making...

Loved all the activities except for the hike on the first day. I think there could be a better alternative.

The trip was well planned, the guide was outstanding, and everyone was helpful in making sure that whatever was needed was available. I was hoping for a little more kayaking and longer times hiking (in other words, bit more challenging physically) but overall I definitely have already recommendeded this trip to friends and business colleagues.

To be able to share in the magic of these islands was a real privilege - Zambo's enthusiasm was infectious and our group (average age about 50) have probably never been fitter!

I first learned about Active N.Z. in 2004. The verbal referral l I kept in my mind since then. When my wife asked me what I wanted to do for my 50th, I said Active New Zealand!! The second best idea I've ever had! (The first was to marry my wife.) Thanks for a wonderful time!
