My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our Rimu trip. We were looking for an "active" trip and this did not disappoint us. The activities were excellent and the locations for all of them were surrounded with stunning scenery. The guides were knowledgeable, thoughtful and kind with a very good sense of humor. The food was very good. Occasionally the lodging did not provide guests with the same degree of sleeping comfort. Some guests were given very small sleeping space. But all in all the accommodations were good especially considering the remote location of some of the places. In summary this trip provided exactly what we were hoping to experience --- a variety of scenery, activities, with knowledgeable and caring guides.

This trip met and exceeded my expectations. Our guides took us to the absoute highlights of the South Island and we were able to experience these sites by land and sea. The kayaking, biking and hiking were each challenging, but very do-able. Food was outstanding and so were the stories our guide told us! Thank you!

The trip far exceeded my expectations. Great planning, cuisine, comfortable lodging and choices of activities. Andrew and Natalie were extremely knowledgable in all facets of the trip, from bird life to local knowledge. I highly recommend this trip to those seeking a very active and well planned tour.

I did both the Rimu and the Kauri and I thought they were both amazing! New Zealand is all around a beautiful place, but the scenery that you get in the North Island is distinctive from that of the South. I think it is definitely worthwhile to do both trips (either adding the 5 day trip or the 11 day trip like I did). The Kauri trip has more culturally activities and has less intense hikes than that of the Rimu trip. That being said, the hikes can still be challenging if you decide to push yourself. I am so glad that I did both trips because it gave me a picture of New Zealand as a whole. Additionally, Nat and Andrew were amazing guides! I have no complaints about anything and would recommend this trip to everyone.

I have always wanted to go to New Zealand and this trip was better than my wildest dreams. Not only is the scenery beautiful beyond belief, the guides are amazing. GT and Sarah were my guides, and our group truly became a big family. Sarah is a great cook and as someone who is ALWAYS hungry I can say that they truly do a great job with providing enough food for everyone to be satisfied. GT has a lot of knowledge about New Zealand and was up for answering endless questions. I know it sounds cliche, but this truly is the trip of a lifetime. I have absolutely no complaints about this trip and would recommend it to everyone!

This week we began in El Calafate and greatly enjoyed the hikes and adventure atmosphere in El Chaten. The downside to this week was the fact that every long bus ride and/or hike paid off w/great views. The exception was leaving El Chaten to see the giant sloth and the penguins. It seemed a bit anticlimactic after all o the spectacular experiences. My suggestion for this part of the trip is to spend an extra day in ElChaten. Maybe make it a "you pick" day...choose my biking, fishing, climbing or an additional hike.
The guides were awesome and Cynthia was brilliant!

I never tired of the beautiful views from all parts of the country. I loved the waterfalls. The flowers and greenery were awesome. The mountains are so different than what I have seen before that I couldn't see enough. Everything so different than what we have here in my home state of Missouri.

Cynthia was a fabulous guide. Laid back yet very professional and personable. She interacted well with our children who loved her and was so accomodating and knowledgable. Patagonia was an epic trip for my family and I!
We must have lucked out on the group of folks on the trip with us. We all came together like one big family, everyone interested in everyone else's wellbeing and spending time talking with each other. You wouldnt have known that that was the first time we met each other.

Active Adventures really helped us see 2 weeks worth of incredible things as we went through Peru. They were so accommodating and even if we knew what was going to happen we were still in awe.
