Just returned from first trip to NZ, including 2 weeks on the South Island tour. Absolutely terrific! The different environments, the guides, and the food and lodging were first rate. Alecia and Katie couldn't do enough for the 12 of us. I was solo, but our group bonded well throughout. I liked the "Comfort Option" in Nelson Lakes - great day hikes and returning to a warm shower and bed each night, but the 7 who took the Angelus option raved about it to. Unfortunately one of our two rainy days on the trip resulted in cancelling the heli-hike on Franz Joseph, but we had an excellent hike up a rainforest mountain instead. The hiking is just amazing, and the kayaking, biking and Milford Sound were all great as well. Go on this trip if you can!

My wife and I loved Active Adventures New Zealand South Island trip. The country was beautiful and the guides from Active Adventures made it easy, adventurous and fun.

We had an amazing time in Peru and Ecuador and the experience was enriched by our excellent guides, Salvador and Pepo. Both were very knowledgeable about the history, flora, and fauna of the area.

The guides were very good, both the Active Adventures coordinator and the local Chilean and Argentine guides. The region is challenging to visit, so having them was essential! The scenery is quite spectacular, and there's a reason why so many hikers, climbers and backpackers add the region to their bucket list. Active is still doing some modifications to this itinerary and if the kinks get worked out, it'll be an even better trip.

The ziplining and tubing were great. I always felt safe, but had a lot of fun. I am not sure what I enjoyed more, ziplining and rock climbing, or tubing. Tubing in the rapids was very unique. The tubes just bounced off the rocks as we went down the rapids. Everyone had a blast!
The guide for standup paddle boarding was a great teacher. Just about everyone was able to standup at some point. The trip was a good mix of activities with some down time. We enjoyed sampling the local cuisine. The guides took great care of us and all the locals we met were so nice! My only complaint is that we only saw a small part of Costa Rica. We hope to come back and see some more of this beautiful country.

Really liked how the focus was on hiking, but we also had opportunities to do other activities too. Views were amazing whether while biking, hiking, kayaking, walking on a glacier, in a boat, or even from our refugio dorm room. Dinners were exceptional - thank goodness we got in a lot of exercise! Guides were fantastic: knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and organized.
