Our family's 8-day Tui trek was jam-packed with stunning scenery, epic adventure and bucket list experiences. The accommodations and meals were perfect. New Zealanders and visitors alike are blessed with a culture focused on the enjoyment of the outdoors. Our guides were exceptionally accommodating to the entire group and demonstrated flexibility when Mother Nature threw challenges our way (as to be expected). They made it possible to enjoy the great number of awesome South Island experiences in just 8 days. Hats off to Active Adventures. You rock!

Active Adventures staff Liana and Holly conducted a superb trip. Liana is a careful and courteous driver; Holly a gourmet chef. Both imparted a wealth of information re history, Maiori legends, flora and fauna. The scenery was breathtaking particularly the west coast. Accommodations ranged between excellent and acceptable. The walks in the subtropical rain forest were unique and the highlight of the trip.

I didn't know what to expect except an adventure and this is precisely what I got. Not often that one travels and comes home with no weight gain and amazing meals at every turn. Our cooks and sherpas (Donotello, Ilario, Stephen and others), our drivers (Natcho and Mario), our guides (Eric, Salvatore) made our experience of the Andes and Lares trail magical. The Amazon was quite the experience as well although my preference was the mountains and the Peruvian people of the mountains.

The KIWI journey was perfect for me. What was most impressive was that everyday was a new adventure. Although we had some challenges with weather and a bridge being unpassable due to a storm, Active Adventures had a plan where we were taken across the affected area in a helicopter. Whenever there was a "glitch" due to unforeseen circumstances our two wonderful guides knew other hikes for us to take and continued our amazing adventure. Our guides were awesome. Jackie was our driver and I felt safe at all times with her at the wheel. And I wish I could take Lauren home to be my private chef! Her food was consistently excellent and varied. She was able to cater to all different dietary needs without missing a step! I have travelled extensively and this Active Adventure trip is in my top 5.

This was a great trip. I was thoroughly impressed with the friendliness and professionalism of our guides (Ruby and Kaleb). There were a couple of things that made us have to go off script (such as weather). Our guides quickly found alternatives that were as equally enjoyable. I would highly recommend Active Adventure to anyone who likes to experience a new place with a great outdoor experience. On a side note Active Adventure sent us to Amy Bohling w/NZ Travel Brokers to get our flights and an extra hotel night. She did an excellent job at scheduling and keeping us informed of our travel arrangements.

They took me to a ton of great places that I wouldn't have known about normally and I loved every single one of them. I went in April and it was coming to the end of the summer season for them (more fall) so the places that we went to were not busy usually and it was amazing to hike the trials and feel almost alone except for the few kiwis that decided to go out for the Easter break. The guides love what they do and it shows because they knew so many different fun facts all along the trip and showed that they really enjoyed their jobs. *shout out to Ellie and Elder*. If you are on the fence about whether or not to do the trip, I can say that I recommend it wholeheartedly. It was an amazing trip with amazing views and people. Also if you go on a vacation you want someone else to do the thinking for you, the most I had to decide on was what I wanted for dinner or what to do in Queenstown. No matter what, they had things covered and made it a very relaxing active adventure. 10/10

I have never been on one of these guided trips before. How nice to have everything planned and taken care of. It was a grteat variety of activities well spaced, with a few free days thrown in. Wonderful to not have to try to find places and come up with thiings to do in a country you are not familiar with. Enjoyed every minute.

We were apprehensive joining a group of strangers for this trip through Peru. Within minutes of meeting our group, we felt comfortable.
Our guide, Eric, was terrific and made sure we all were comfortable. Erick even provided support to us in Cusco two days prior to our tour starting. Erick worked with the group to customize the trip to fit our needs and abilities. The support teams were outstanding.
We enjoyed all the aspects of the trip. The country, culture, landscape, and wildlife were all amazing to learn about and understand, thanks to Erick. It was a great trip and we would highly recommend it to anyone.

The trip was without flaws or glitches. The country is beautiful. Our guides and fellow hikers were very enjoyable people. Certainly I hope to travel again with Active Adventures and will look on the North Island and Europe.

When we booked this holiday, our intention was to do the Milford Track - this track has been on our collective bucket list for many many years. We were excited when we started on this holiday, but little did we know, we actually ended up having the holiday of a lifetime. The weather was turning and by the time we embarked on our first walk - the Routeburn Track - winds were already building up. Alas, the Milford Track itself was cancelled when winds hit >100 knots. What happened next was spectacular...the cruise which was cancelled 3 times finally set sail, and we were treated to a spectacular showing of thousands of waterfalls gushing down the slopes of the fiords. Wow wow wow!!
We agreed that our guides Pim and Emma are the best that we have had in all our travels. The weather situation was obviously not conventional and undesirable, and they both handled them very well. They made the group feel comfortable, managed schedule changes with professional efficiency, and managed to keep our spirits up the whole time. Both are excellent and real treasures!
Because we never made it to the one place which we had intended, we will definitely return for it...hopefully sooner rather than later. Stay tuned!
