What a fabulous trip, far exceeded my expectations. The hikes were amazing and varied with the most stunning views. The hotel we stayed at was lovely and modern, our host Lucy was great and the food delicious. Our guide Tom was outstanding. He was a fab leader, very informative and made the hikes really enjoyable. He continually made sure we were all ok and was just an all round wonderful guide. Thanks so much. We had the best time.

Our Guide is Tom, he's been brilliant throughout. Everything went very smoothly, I've got some amazing memories from these past few days, and loved every minute of it. The weather was perfect, sunny, warm, and no rain. A special shout out to Lucy at the hotel we stayed at - the food we had was amazing - 3 course meals and lovely continental breakfast. Our group was small, just 6 of us, I didn't know any before I got there and we all got on really well. If you have any doubts about taking a solo trip, just go for it, you wont regret it. I'm already thinking about my next trip

A huge and very personal thank you to Lahouceine for everything you did for us on Mount Toubkal. ❤️ You weren’t just our guide — you were there every step of the way, encouraging us when things got tough, sharing your knowledge, making us laugh, and always making sure we were okay. I’m truly grateful for your patience, kindness, and support. What could have simply been a mountain climb turned into an experience I’ll never forget, and you played a big part in that. Thank you, Lahouceine, for the memories, the laughs, and for helping us reach the summit. 🏔️🇲🇦 I hope our paths cross again someday, my friend. 🤝❤️

Absolutely amazing experience climbing Mount Toubkal! The scenery, challenge and whole adventure were incredible from start to finish. Our guide, Lahouceine was fantastic knowledgeable, professional, encouraging and made sure we were safe and enjoying every step of the journey. I couldn’t recommend the experience or our guide highly enough. An unforgettable adventure and one I’ll definitely remember for a long time!

What an incredible adventure canoeing across Scotland turned out to be. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I've ever had, combining breathtaking scenery, physical challenges, and unforgettable friendships. The journey was far from easy. Long days on the water, changing weather conditions, and the occasional tough portage tested us both physically and mentally. However, overcoming those challenges as a team made the achievement even more special. There were times when determination, resilience, and teamwork were essential, and everyone stepped up to support one another. One of the highlights of the trip was the amazing people I met along the way. The camaraderie, shared laughter, and willingness to help each other created a fantastic atmosphere throughout the expedition. The team spirit was truly inspiring, and it was incredible to see how everyone pulled together, no matter what the day threw at us. A special mention must go to our fabulous guide, Matty, who remained calm, positive, and reassuring in every situation. His experience and steady leadership helped keep the group focused and confident, even during the more challenging moments. Another standout was the food. After long days on the water, we were treated to fantastic meals cooked from scratch. The effort and care that went into every meal made a huge difference and provided a real boost to morale at the end of each day. The combination of stunning Scottish landscapes, personal achievement, teamwork, and great company made this an experience I'll never forget. It was wonderful, challenging, and immensely rewarding from start to finish. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an adventure that pushes you out of your comfort zone while creating memories and friendships that will last a lifetime.

An absolutely top-class experience from start to finish. Our guide Simon was outstanding clearly knew his stuff and had the experience and confidence to guide us through whatever the mountains threw at us. His calm, guarded pragmatism gave us confidence, particularly when conditions became difficult. The knowledge, professionalism and encouragement from Simon made a huge difference. He knew when to push, when to be cautious, and how to keep us moving towards the goal. Darren, our driver, was brilliant too. He kept everything running smoothly and was a constant source of encouragement and support. A genuinely challenging experience made possible by an excellent team. Would highly recommend Simon, Darren and the team to anyone taking on the 3 Peaks 3 Day National Challenge

From the outset, our guide Akis committed to a hike that would be Safe, and would be a pleasurable experience, and he delivered on this promise. The hike was a combination of great scenery, strenuous climbs, relaxing swims and great Cretan food among new hiking friends. Akis took the time to provide us with insightful information regarding Cretan history, geology, flora and fauna and the mythology of Homer's Odyssey. Well done Akis.

Not 24 hours as the title suggests. There's a mandatory driver rest stop which is 1 hr. The guide then tells you can take the hour of total time. As the guide said there not there to help you but just there toensure group safety, but when you do fall and need help there no where to be found and members of public have to help you. Dont except a verbal health and safty briefing or plan for the hike at the start of the challange.

It was a truly wonderful experience. The scenery was amazing. Our guide, Chucky, was very knowledgeable and able to help out those that needed it effectively to keep us all safe. He was communicative both before the trip and whilst it was on. The organisation was efficient. Everything worked to plan as nothing was left to chance, it was evident that Chucky had done this many times in the past. His cooking was first class taking everyone’s dietary requirements into account. What made it easy was that everyone helped out: washing up; pitching and breaking up camp; carrying the equipment to the wild campsites and around lock gates. Hard work but team work makes the dream work! I can thoroughly recommend the trip it will stretch, excite, and amaze as you look at the environment from a different perspective.

I knew this would be a challenge for me, having no experience of canoeing, however our guide Kieran was an enthusiastic and patient instructor, so that I quickly became confident on the water. Working as a team was encouraged and this built a close relationship within the group so that we were supportive of each other when the going got tough. Kieran obviously enjoys his role,, being able to be playful and serious when required. This trip has boosted my confidence and left me wanting more. Heartfelt thanks to everyone ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What an adventure, meeting a group of strangers to canoe across Scotland. The weather wasn't always perfect but the craic was mighty. We were lucky to have Kieran as our guide - not only did he keep us right in the canoes but his cooking was something to look forward to, even ensuring the only vegan had plenty to eat. It was a fun filled week with amazing scenery and a bit of hard work thrown in.

He definitely had safety at the top of his list, especially in the high waves of Loch Ness. A bunch of dodgy strangers turned into a respected team of friends, and made the trip truly memorable.

Truly life changing trip that will reignite your love for travel. But this hike is no joke! Definitely make sure you have a baseline level of fitness and can be active for hours at a time, as the days are very long but the week goes by fast. Our guide Fernando led our group (the Sexy Cougars) expertly with punctuality and humor. The cooks (shout out Juan Carlos) cooked incredible food that I will forever salivate over and still crave. They’re very accommodating for dietary preferences. Our group bonded through the shared difficulty of the hike, memories, and laughs. Don’t second guess booking. I would do it all over again. Alpaca is very professional and fantastic about pickup/drop off schedules.

I recently completed the Mount Toubkal trek booked through Skyhook, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, the entire experience was flawless.Skyhook made the planning completely stress-free. The booking process was smooth,. The true highlight of the trip was my guide, Mohammed. He is a truly fantastic and positive person who completely made the experience for me. I started dealing with a bit of early altitude sickness during the trek, and Mohammed was incredibly supportive, patient, and encouraging. He kept my spirits high and safely helped me push through the toughest parts. I felt completely looked after the entire time.The Hospitality & Experience:The rest of the local Berber team, cooks, and porters were also exceptional, keeping us well-fed with delicious hot tagines. The trek is physically demanding—especially the early morning summit climb—but reaching the top was absolutely worth it.If you are looking to climb Toubkal, look no further than Skyhook. Ask for Mohammed if you can—he is the absolute best!

I understood that this adventure would be hard, tough, and soggy, looking at the weather forecast before we set out, but I had no idea it would be such fun or that there would be so much SAILING. We all knew we were so fortunate to have such a capable guide in Keiran. His empathy and imagination gelled our group in no time, and he knew we were all game for a real adventure and provided it in bucket loads. Thank you Kieran and thank you Skyhook

Absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish. Not a day without rain and a couple with crazy wind but our guide Kieran was amazing at keeping the group’s morale up. He’s a great cook and such a patient teacher, using humour and the occasional command (!!) to keep us going. We were a group of mixed ability and experience and thanks to Kieran, we all left having learned a lot, gained new friends and very keen to book our next adventure! Five stars!

Well! I admit a bit of a wobble first night in heavy rain negotiating putting up a tent for first time in 20 years, undressing and dressing in said tent with a mostly damp if not soaking set of clothes as the clouds burst nearly every day , peeing in the woods and being very much out of my comfort zone, but Kieran was on hand with advice in a kind, fun and optimistic way throughout, which was reassuring! His rousing speeches before each new section had is all pulling together ! It was harder than I had imagined , but I really enjoyed the physical challenges of the paddling, battling the sail against the wind and the portaging and I’ve come back a bit stronger I’m sure- maybe I’ll be able to do a press-up now! TBH I would have swapped the tent for a YHA or a B&B 😂, though became a dab hand as the days went by, but would not want to have missed out on Kieran’s fabulous and creative feasts or the banter of my new canoe friends, all of whom were just brilliant companions and made the trip so much fun. There was a fantastic spread of ages from 24-74 and we all genuinely got along so easily. No one had a sense of humour failure even in the torrential rain, and lots of laughs were had and some excellent sea shanties were composed! The views were spectacular and breathtaking, the rain or post rain mist making for amazing photos taken and shared by the group, we passed castles and saw an Osprey nest and visited the monument of the seven heads! Gruesome! Actively looking at other tours for next year- like the sound of the montblanc tour!! On to the next adventure!

We had a truly epic adventure on the Great Glen - gorgeous campsites, good tough equipment and great food. I got to learn new skills and improve my canoeing whilst having great fun. Above all what made the trip amazing was our guide Matty who consistently and calmly guided us through both the trip in general and some hairy moments on Loch Ness in particular. He brought good humour, clear instructions and made us feel safe and confident in unfamiliar situations as well as ensuring we enjoyed the experience as a holiday and not just a challenge. Really highly recommend this trip.

Wow what a week we had the absolute best time! What an adventure from start to finish! 🛶🏕️ Matty was our tour guide and honestly he was brilliant! Before we even got on the water he explained everything clearly and gave us a little demo paddle so we all felt confident before setting off. Matty’s cooking was great too and he made sure everyone’s dietary needs were catered for. He kept us updated with the weather throughout the trip and always made sure we had the right layers on when the conditions were going to change. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him and he really helped make the whole experience so enjoyable. There were eight of us altogether with two people in each of the four canoes. We quickly became a great little team and built up such a lovely friendship along the way. The teamwork soon kicked in and we honestly never stopped laughing from beginning to end! 😂 We’ve made some amazing memories and had the best time. We’ll definitely be booking another adventure at a different location next year and hopefully Matty will be our guide again! 🛶❤️ Thanks for an unforgettable week!

A mind blowing trip! I have to say that I was really excited to go along on this trek to the summit of mount Toubkal, but the whole experience far exceeded my expectations. From beginning to end we were very well taken care of, the food was authentic Moroccan home cooking, with loads of variety and generous portions, and the people that I met along the way were truly spectacular. The trail is challenging and should not be underestimated, but our guides Mustafa and Hassan were just brilliant. Super friendly guys who enjoyed a bit of bants and were very knowledgeable about the route and points of interest. Not for the faint hearted, but if you're up for the adventure of a lifetime, then these are the guys to take you to the top. I'm already planning my next Skyhook adventure, everyone needs a bit of this in their lives. The locals are so welcoming, and after years of travelling, there is nowhere else like this that I have ever been. Highly, highly recommended. Yalla Yalla Toubkal! Shukran

What a challenge and such an experience! Richard our guide was great. He had the perfect blend of knowledge and experience and his approach to getting us up and down each peak within the time frame was spot on! This is no easy challenge... The gruelling nature of each climb and decent takes a huge toll on your body. The real challenge is not so much the physical which don't get me wrong is incredibly tough... But the lack of rest/sleep/recovery whilst travelling in a cramped minibus surrounded by all your kit (wet and dry) is a real test of resilience! I feel there should be some kind of vetting process with regards to a person's level of fitness so awkward and difficult decisions need not be made by both the guide and participants regarding continuation at a certain point. Also a medal for completion should most certainly be included. All in all a mega trip though!

It’s really hard to put into words what an incredible adventure this trip was. Completely out of my comfort zone I was prepared to jump in and embrace whatever came our way. I knew from the moment we met our wonderful guides, Netta and Carla from Nordic Paddling that we were in for an incredible experience. A meet and greet on the banks of the fjord with a demonstration of all the kayaking gear, followed by a lovely local style meal where we got to know our fellow travellers was the perfect end to our first night. Up early on day two, a healthy breakfast filled us for our day of Kayaking. I was impressed with the care taken to explain the techniques and safety precautions we needed for our day ahead. The weather was not perfect with rain and drizzle on and off for most of the day but the kayaking along the lyesefjord was breathtaking. Really hard to put into words but the scenery, the journey and the camaraderie within the group made it a special day. On arrival at our home for the next few days we quickly learned that the ’wild camping’ was indeed wild! We were given a demonstration on how to put up our own tents and then a rundown of the campsite and rules needed to make everyone’s stay as comfortable as possible. Once everyone was set up and unpacked we were treated to a well earned meal around our campfire prepared by Netta and Carla. It was delicious. An early night was had as we had a 6am start for our hike up Priekestolen the next day. Not going to lie. After the previous days kayaking my legs were very sore but I was determined to make it up and oh my goodness was it worth it. The hike up and the stunning views of the Fjords are breathtaking. No photograph can do it justice. Our guides were patient and stayed with the slowest of the group to make sure everyone was safe and no one was left behind. That evening was spent chatting and enjoying each other’s company around the camp fire with another tasty meal which was a great way to end a spectacular day hiking and sightseeing. Our last morning was spent with a beautiful casual kayak further up the Fjords. The weather was stunning and to get to experience the fjords from sea level was truly magical. We returned to camp, packed up our belongings and tents and returned to the Nordic Paddling offices to prepare for our return home but before we finished we all sat around and reflected on the few days we had all spent together and the shared experiences of our trip. A perfect end to your activities. The Wild camping experience really exceeded my expectations. It was wild! It was tough going in parts but It was so much fun to experience the Fjords of Norway in this way and It really was a once in a lifetime experience that will live long in my memories. Nordic Paddling and their guides were amazing to deal with and I couldn’t recommend them enough. I will definitely be looking at other adventures with Sky Hook.

I’ve just completed the Matterhorn Highlight trek with Skyhook and ALPS Adventure. A fantastic experience from start to finish. The booking process was straightforward and professional, and the pre-trip information and communication were excellent. I always felt I knew what was happening, what I needed to bring and what to expect. The trek itself was superb, challenging enough to feel like a proper adventure, through some genuinely spectacular mountain scenery. The huts were excellent, the food was great, and sharing the experience with such a friendly and diverse group made it even more memorable. But a special mention has to go to our guide, Sally, who was absolutely brilliant. Despite being relatively young, she clearly has a huge amount of mountain experience and knowledge. At all times I felt we were in extremely capable hands. She managed the group and the different abilities within it effortlessly, always seemed to know exactly what was needed, and struck the perfect balance between being professional and keeping everything relaxed and fun. Just as importantly, Sally was simply great company. Friendly, good-humoured, interesting and very much part of the group rather than someone just leading us from A to B. She played a huge part in making a very good trip into a genuinely memorable one. I came away tired, happy, with some fantastic memories and a bunch of new friends which is probably the best recommendation I can give. I’d happily book with Alps Adventures again and will definitely be looking at what adventure comes next.

Thank you to our amazing guide Charles, he helped me slow down, connect with the mountains and appreciate them on a much deeper level, adding a sense of meaning that went far beyond simply hiking.

I am just coming down to planet earth from an amazing trip “Tour Mont Blanc “ The whole experience will remain with me for a long time. The views were outstanding and photos will never do justice to the sights smells and sound of the silence . Charles our guide made the trip very special by his connection with nature . He was able to tune into the needs of the group. He allowed time for personal reflection and I valued the moments walking in silence through pine forests. Charles scheduled frequents stops on the routes to debrief, share feelings or view areas of historical interest. He was thoughtful and showed kindness to those who were experiencing fatigue or injury. The Hostels where we had overnight stays were good , hot showers and welcome food and drink . A great diverse group that all brought their individual stories to the journey . A big thank you Charles . I hope we meet again. Go Well Tom Griffin . Namaste

Great trip and extremely lucky with the weather. Couple of teething problems at the start which the instructors overcame with ease. Both really friendly and knowledgeable. Equipment of a really good standard. Good plentiful and cooked freshly every day. Well worth doing and the scenery is amazing especially Loch Ness.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **An adventure I will never forget** We had the most amazing leaders for this adventure, **Chucky & Pete**\. From the very beginning, I felt completely safe in their hands\. Their knowledge, experience, encouragement and enthusiasm were incredible, and they somehow managed to keep us going even when we were questioning our life choices\! 😂 I also met the most amazing group of people — 10 wonderful strangers who very quickly became a team (with person number 11 being my best friend, who came along with me)\. The camaraderie, encouragement, uplifting spirit and genuine care we showed for each other was something really special\. Everyone looked out for everyone, and that made such a difference\. Now for the honest bit… **this adventure is not easy\!** There will probably be a point — possibly every night\! — when you’ll wonder why on earth you ever signed up, question your sanity and think you’d quite happily go home\. 😂 And yes, there were definitely moments when I wondered what I had done\! But stick with it\. **It is SO worth it\.** The sense of pride I feel in myself now is huge\. I discovered strength in myself that I honestly didn’t know I had, pushed myself further than I thought possible and experienced a peacefulness that is difficult to put into words\. I can honestly say I had **the best of times and the worst of times**, sometimes within the same day\! But I’ve come away from this adventure with something incredibly special — an overwhelming feeling of happiness, calm, achievement and gratitude\. The memories, the people, the challenges, the laughter and the peaceful moments will stay with me forever\. **Would I do it again? Ask me after my muscles have forgiven me\! 😂❤️** But for now… **absolutely 5 stars\. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐**

What a fantastic week, with very experienced guides Chucky and Pete. Make no mistake, this was an epic challenge, paddling on lochs, rivers and the sea but was made easier by having a fantastic group who supported each other throughout. We had all seasons over the four days which added to the adventure. If you are considering booking this trip, then definitely do so, the bigger the challenge, the bigger the reward!

We had a lovely time, though my wife found it quite difficult. For those who are looking at this trip, be aware that day one is hiking straight up, then day two was nearly straight down back to Randa due to trail closure going from Europahutte to Taschalp hut. We walked down to a camp ground between Randa and Tasch then took a taxi up to Taschalp. The next 2 days were as advertised and the scenery throughout was amazingly beautiful. We did get warm weather for 3 days and rain the last day, so the Matterhorn and other high peaks were covered by clouds, which is expected with that type of weather. Most wonderful was Laurence, our guide. She was so kind and helpful, encouraging and energetic. She really made the trip enjoyable for everyone. Loved her and would hike anywhere with her as a guide.

Wonderful 4 days with stunning scenery with a beautiful group of people. Our guide Laurence was warm, professional, patient and so much fun. I would love to do another trip with her and this group! The quality of the huts and food were fantastic. I do think that skyhook should update the itinerary for day 2 to make it clear that you are not able to walk that route and a taxi is taken due to a landslide as we did not expect this and my understanding is that this has been the situation for many months. Otherwise, a brilliant experience from start to finish.

This is an excellent trip- we did some spectacular walking on the TMB route, refuges were great and the organisation was spot on. Our guide, Mark, was outstanding. He ensured everyone walked together at a pace that suited everyone, with enough rest breaks and stops at points of interest- plus he has plenty of anecdotes to keep you entertained! We were lucky with our group in that everyone got along very well and was of similar fitness level. All in all a fantastic trip. The only thing that could have been improved on was that we had to request more detail of the September route prior to starting the trip (distances, elevations, refuges etc). Given it is all planned well in advance it would have been nice to have the same level of detail on the trip page as there is for the main route.

(Sep 2026)

Organising the logistics for such a trip is not easy, balancing transport needs, accomodating the group when Fort William is fully booked many months ahead, and most importantly, the guides role in managing expectations in terms of ability for a group of walkers of unknown ability. Mountineerin Ltd did an excellent job particularly in the first two, but I'd strongly recommend to rebrand the challenge as a "weekend back to back 3 peak challenge" and eliminate the artificial time element that depends heavily on how quickly you drive between the mountains. The alternative is to preselect participants, perhaps on experience of running 10k or half-marathon, which reflects the level of effort and fitness required to meet the 24h challenge. As a team, we were able to meet the 24h timeframe, but it would have been more enjoyable (and more inclusive) for everyone to take it a little slower... Rather than expect the guide to have to tell someone they were not fit enough, or were slowing down the group. There's always scope for improvement, but overall I've given 5stars because the logistics were so smooth.... The guide did a really good job at setting expectations and setting pace.. and we got to the bottom of the 3rd mountain approx 24hrs after starting climbing the 1st mountain...

This was such a fantastic trip from the airport pick up to drop off, this was really fantastic. The young lady Sini was a phenomenal host, she made the whole experience just fantastic, explaining exactly how to manage the kayak, she made us feel completely safe on the water at all times, she installed confidence, her appreciation for nature and the genuine love of her job, and her professional manor and ability to blend into the group also, I couldn't praise her enough, and the food oh my goodness the food was amazing such fantastic meals every time. This lady is a credit to Nordic paddling but also to Skyhook. The accommodation was in such a stunning setting so clean and comfortable, the sauna experience was fantastic. It's honestly also the best value trip, the peace of not having to worry about additional spending apart from tips was great and your day in the town if you're staying on. This trip was such a fantastic introduction to kayaking. Highest praise for Sini and Nordic paddling. By far my favourite trip with skyhook so far.

(Sep 2026)

You could say I went into this with my eyes closed and left with them wide open. I didn't read all the reviews and the expectation of the trip, and wanted to do something a little different this year and saw this. Never canoeing or wild camped (my last camping experience was at 13 with school). My fitness level is medium, having been doing some strength gym work for a few months prior to the trip (I recommend to do this as there is a lot of heavy carrying if you are not physically used to this). Our leaders were Matty and Dave, experienced people in there field and are there to keep you safe and take you through the experience. They were on hand to guide you through how to put up a tent, where the toilet facilities are (remember you are wild camping and the facilities are the wild 😉) and they cook for you too. Everyone pitched in to clean the dishes and collect firewood for the fire. I laughed, cried, cursed (often) and saw the most spectacular scenery I have seen to date. Being an avid phone user scrolling through endless social media pages, I found myself only having my phone to take photos, being present and not really thinking of anything apart from watching the paddle go through the water. I thought my hilight would be Loch Ness however Loch Lochy was stunning in every way. On the 2nd morning when waking up, it was so still with the sun rising in front of us, it was like a mill pond (if you wild swim, take your cossie with you and have a dip, it will be worth it!!) I was with a great group of people, who made the trip a great one! Being a solo traveller, it gives you the opportunity to meet new people and they got me through this having wanted to quit after day 2. Its hard graft, I'm not gonna lie but upon reflection, this was out of my comfort zone, I love the water but never done anything like this before and so glad I stayed. The Pro's: 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland - In all its glory 🫂 People - They were the best group 🛶 canoeing - Mindfulness, you won't regret it. 🥙 Food - plentiful and delicious 🍫 Snacks - The snack barrel is fab!! 🏕 Wild Camping - Its not for me but a great experience 📖 Information - Skyhook Adventure will send you what you need for the trip (Make sure you have a good waterproof set, and a small flask if you want a hot drink on the go). 📷 Photos - Memories that will last a lifetime 💪🏼 Fitness - Its challenging if you are not physically active but so worth it! ☀️ Mother Nature - Be prepared to get wet. The Cons: 💩 Toilet facilities - I did it but not for me! 🦟 Midges and ticks - They are relentless, make sure you get the smidge net for your head and repellent. I would definitely recommend this trip 👌🏽 with Skyhook Adventures. I have lots of photos, videos and memories for this trip and added a few to the review. 🛶 Happy canoeing 🛶

Where do we start, Elin (Smellin) our guide was lovely,down to earth and through out the trip nothing was too much trouble, she was knowledgeable about best places to camp and an over night stop at the pub barge was entertaining ! The kit was awesome, tents really easy to erect and air mattress was comfortable, food was fresh and meals were flavoursome ! Trip was made by the others on it, an instant bond over sarcasm and conversation made the five days a pleasure ! Would have preferred more guidance on packing from the start, wasn’t really clear but if you fancy it just chuck all your kit into a couple of bags and be prepared to repack on the morning of your trip into a waterproof canoe bag ! Smidge is a must as is the head net they really don’t give up till they have eaten you lol If it’s stunning scenery and a mild challenge you want this trip will tick those boxes sadly, till you get there you won’t know the others but if your lucky like us it will be a blast !

The Canoe across Scotland trip was amazing. Geoff Potts was an fabulous guide with many years of experience. The kit provided and the packing list was spot on and very helpful. We were challenged with wind, rain, tides and midges. Geoff not only taught us the basic techniques for canoeing but we also learnt how to be safe in various conditions along the way. We tied canoes together and learnt to sail when the wind was with us and we dug deep and paddled hard when the wind was against us. The food was great and we even had Haggis. This trip is not for the faint hearted and it is hard work but the reward of getting to the end of Loch Ness is fabulous. You just need a bit of determination and good camaraderie among the group to help each other along. The scenery and the spots for the wild camping were amazing. Thank you for amazing memories and a great adventure.

I can't think of a better way to really experience the Scottish nature than five days travelling across the Lochs in canoes. The average age of our group was around 50, so don't be put off thinking you can't do it. Geoff, we'd like to thank you for making this such a special journey. We can't wait to start canoeing once we get back to Australia.

I would absolutely recommend this trip to anyone looking to do something a bit different or wanting a unique experience. It was the first time I'd ever done anything like this, and Nordic Paddling were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Our guide, Jasper, was incredibly knowledgeable, clearly passionate about what he does, and very patient with the whole group. He always took the time to explain the plans and itinerary, and when severe winds meant things had to change, he worked hard to keep the trip enjoyable and interesting despite the changes. The kayaking and hike were all done at a sensible pace, which was great for me as I was quite nervous about my fitness levels and whether I'd be able to keep up. The trip felt challenging enough to be rewarding, but never overwhelming. I also had a bit of a nightmare after losing my passport. The team went above and beyond to help me sort out the delivery of an emergency passport, which took a huge amount of stress off my shoulders. All in all, it was a fantastic experience. The combination of an experienced guide, a well-organised trip and a genuinely supportive team made it something I'll remember for a long time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this with Nordic Paddling to others.

Our wonderful canoeing adventure along the 97km of the Caledonian Canal and through 4 lochs, including the immensely deep Loch Ness, with the professional guide Geoff and trainees Toby and Matt, was an amazing experience that I'll never forget! We stopped for breaks at the side of lochs with stunning views viewed by few others, with Geoff making us feel safe and supplied magnificently with hot drinks and snacks. Each evening, Geoff knowledgeably guided us to set up camp and a camp fires in the best places and swiftly cooked us a healthy, hearty, fresh meal. All 11 of us got on so well and created a bond full of banter, care and friendship, with the 3 guides helping us all, became profficient paddlers! I would highly recommend this trip. You have to be willing to paddle for hours, put up and put down a tent each night independently, for wild camping, learn to live without a plug or even a toilet at times, and contribute to all aspects of your adventure but it really is worth it! You will be rewarded with an exhilarating adventure and new friends! Do it!

This was a fantastic experience. Day 1 met by Geoff our guide to sort through our kit & meet the other paddlers. Complete mixed group with some experience & complete novices. Boats unloaded & onto the top of Neptunes staircase to begin. Geoff didnt overload us with instruction, when we needed to be told what to do we were told...no confusion there. Off we go, our abilities were assessed & we got to know our boats & everyone else in the group. The sun was shining the weather forecast was good & we must have been like a gaggle of geese heading up the canal for anybody else on the water or the bank. This was the start of an amazing week we paddled, we laughed, we had lunch, we laughed, we wild camped, we laughed, we did portage, we laughed, we sailed our canoes & guess what we laughed. As the week went on our ability grew, we became slick at portage & camp was erected & struck with ease. Through the week the sky were massive & the Glen was stunning when seen from low down on the water. Eagles & Osprey flew overhead & fishes swam below you. At night the stars shone, milky way was milky & we saw the Starlink sky train on twice. Portage was a necessary, but horrible, part of the week but by working together they soon became just another opportunity to build the team & have a laugh. All to soon the team were at Inverness & the boats & kit were loaded into the transport for our return back to Banavie, our start point. Driving along roads that ran followed our route there was a constant stream of reminiscing & story telling then the end & you are walking away from your new friends having paddled across Scotland & achieved something you can talk about for the rest of your life. Excellent trip well organised & led by Geoff made all the better by the good weather & Barry being off his work.

Malou (trainee guide) joined us for Day 3 and 4 and was a lovely addition. Our group of 14 was a nice mix of solo travellers and family/friends across a wide range of ages (from late teens to early 70s) and were great company. Stunning views (even on our rainy day) and some special experiences like our lunch at Bovine. The FAQs and information before the trip managed our expectations well about the accommodation, food and facilities (the sweet/sugary breakfasts were the only surprise).

It's a hard - long paddle, be prepared to lift, push and shift equipment, dont be fooled, iys a graft sometimes, eat heartily and dont take too much stuff! Do take paddling gloves, a wide brim hat for sum and rain & to pull a midge nett over in the evening, and take a bottle of Avon's Skin So Soft as a midge repellent. It is off grid self-sustained wild camping in beautiful scenery, rough n ready, make fires, pee in the woods. Kieran cooked brekkie and eve meals, all excellent! Salad cream in the lunchtime wraps was an added bonus half way through, thanks for getting that dude! My pee bottle for in the tent at night was a great luxury item for me, (I'm old!) NO getting out the tent once in bed 😎😊. Neoprene socks and water shoes worked well in the day and Cross at night ... you dont need any other footwear. All in all, an unforgettable, rewarding experience with ups & downs ... 100% glad I did it, thanks Chucky, Matty & Kieran, will keep in touch!

I’ve just completed the canoe and wild camping trip with Skyhook from Loch Ness to Fort William, and honestly, it was excellent! I went with a friend, but we went with the intention of having our own individual adventure. We ended up with six other great people on the trip, all different ages and from different backgrounds, but somehow we were the perfect group. It really made the experience even better. I’m not going to lie — the canoeing was hard! Especially when the rain came down and the wind picked up. But our guide, Kieran, was absolutely brilliant. He was informative, encouraging and always there with the right words when things got tough. There were definitely times when you had to dig deep, but the encouragement from everyone meant you kept going and worked hard to complete it. I hadn’t camped since I was a kid and, if I’m honest, I was dreading that part. But I actually loved it! We put up and took down our tents every day, and sleeping in them was surprisingly comfortable. Skyhook supplied the tent and ground mat, so all you need to bring is your sleeping bag. Kieran our guide cooked our breakfast and Dinner which was enjoyed by all. Lunch we put sandwiches together and had snacks available throughout the trip. Now for the reality of wild camping… the worst part was definitely going to the toilet in the woods! 😂 But you get to a stage where you genuinely just stop caring. If you need to go, you need to go! And yes, you will smell — but so will everyone else, so nobody cares! 😂 It was challenging, tiring, sometimes wet and windy, but also such a rewarding experience. You finish feeling genuinely proud of yourself for what you’ve achieved. I’d absolutely recommend this trip to anyone looking for a challenge, incredible scenery and a proper adventure. We went expecting to have our own trip, but came away having shared an amazing experience with a fantastic group of people. A massive thank you to Kieran for being such a brilliant guide, and to Skyhook for an unforgettable adventure! 🛶⛺️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

This was such an amazing trip! The St Anna Archipelago is just stunning and you should definitely spend some time there. What made this trip even better was the thoughtful preparation, organisation and guidance of Thomas (co founder of 'do the North') and Eva Mackova. And if you then add a group of people who know what they have let themselves into and enjoy a sunset just as much as a torrential (but short) rainfall, then you are in for a fabulous time!!!

This holiday is exactly what it says on the tin — so don’t overthink it! Come as physically prepared as you can, but ultimately, it’s just as much a mental challenge. You’ll get tired, you’ll get wet, you’ll probably question your life choices at least once… but you’ll also get the most incredible scenery and an amazing sense of achievement at the end. My biggest piece of advice: don’t overpack! Whatever you put on your back has to be carried with you over the locks and into the boats, so less really is more. I absolutely loved every bit of it. My body definitely felt battered by the end, but if I could guarantee the same group and have Kieran leading us again, I’d do it all over tomorrow. Hats off to Kieran as a leader. He’s caring, enthusiastic and gives you the freedom to take some ownership of how you approach the week, while always keeping safety and fun at the forefront. He had to deal with a puncture within the first hour and a difficult situation with one of our group members, but he went above and beyond to support them while still managing to rally the rest of us and keep morale high. Somehow, despite everything, our group still looked like we were having the most fun! He consistently encouraged us to look out for each other, while also making sure we stopped to appreciate just how far we’d come. He somehow managed to keep eight increasingly tired people paddling in roughly the same direction, looking out for each other and, most importantly, still having fun. Be prepared to let your guard down, get stuck in, embrace the chaos and get involved — you’ll love it

Overall, I would not recommend Skyhook, nor would I say that this trip was particularly well run. The guide, Kevin, was good, but there were a few areas that could be improved. Firstly, the communication leading up to the trip was very poor. We were added to a WhatsApp group only a few hours before we were due to be picked up, where we were informed of a 90-minute delay (which was unavoidable). The itinerary does not accurately reflect all aspects of the 24-hour challenge. For example, there is a stop between the first and second peaks where hot food is available, which would have been useful to know in advance. Considering the price of the trip, I believe water should have been provided. I have never experienced a situation where water was not supplied, even in much more remote locations. In my experience, organised tour companies will generally provide water as a basic necessity. There is also no contingency plan for participants who were unable to complete the challenge at the required pace. We significantly exceeded the 24-hour timeframe because two people in our group were not able to continue at the expected speed. There should have been a second guide available to help manage situations such as this and minimise the impact on the rest of the group.

This was an amazing trip! Incredibly well organised, airport transfer included, which made everything so much simpler. The guide, Jasper, was very friendly, warm, knowledgeable and was great at bringing us all together. I loved the whole experience: all the kayaking, camping, the food was amazing, the hiking… Jasper even took a couple of us on a trail run up a mountain on an afternoon (after we hiked Pulpit rock) which was my favourite bit, if a bit exhausting! The whole experience was more than I expected and felt like just the revitalising break that I needed. Loved it, would highly recommend! I’d love to come back and do a longer version next time.

Great few days hiking in the Zermatt area. For somebody with experience hiking the distances/elevation are nice and tiring but very manageable with some relaxation time still. Accommodation each night was great, it’s still your classic mountain hut so expect shared dorms etc but definitely the last 2 nights are quite a luxury version so was very comfortable and each of the locations were great. Matt our guide was fantastic.

Amazing 4 days in the Alps with our incredible head guide Sab and trainee guide Malou, and the loveliest group of people! The organisation and communication were excellent from start to finish; everything was clear and carefully explained at every stage. Both our guides were really supportive and encouraging, especially during Day 2 which I found the most challenging among 4 days. Got to see Mont Blanc from different sides and angles, all were spectacular. It's astonishing how much we got to explore in such short period of time. The refugios are what you expect in mountains, homely and comfortable, nothing flashy. I would definitely recommend Alps Adventures!

A real adventure! Our excellent guides Geoff and Elin provided everything we needed: kit, expertise, humour and confidence. At the end of five days on the water we'd taken in beautiful scenery, admired the wildlife and achieved a satisfying conclusion with our arrival at the end of Loch Ness. The provided kit was excellent, all in good order. Good tents, new canoes, new roll mats. All the meals were brought in barrels on the canoes. The snack barrel was most popular with fruit, nuts, crisps and mini chocolate biscuits. The camps were wildcamps but we never had to dig a hole. A mixture of a drop toilet, portaloo, toilet tent, or the excellent canal boater facility flushing toilets and showers too. Relaxation was possible at two or three pubs on the route for a pint or an extra snack. Food was plentiful. Lunch was diy sandwich with a good selecting of fillings and sauces. Evening meals were cooked by the guides, basic but filling with all diets catered for. A couple of cooked breakfasts too. We had our chores to do in the camp. We all took a turn washing up and setting up the kelly kettle for hot drinks (coffee, tea, decaf or squash). The main activity of canoeing was taxing. Sometimes the wind helped with canoe sails. The guides kept us all safe and entertained pointing out the local sights while we regrouped to allow all levels of canoeing to travel together. At the locks, the canoes had to be emptied and carried to the other side of the lock. Everyone worked as a team to move all the equipment. Some were short hoops but a couple of long ones too 800m and 1km. The canoe trolleys were needed for those. The whole trip was amazing. Yes, we were eaten alive by midges in the camps but out on the water we were enjoying Scotland's iconic scenery. All excellent value for money. Thoroughly recommended.

Gran Paradiso Circuit Trek with Claudio was a big fat 5★! And big shout out to Claudio an amazing person and he was an incredible tour guide for the Gran Paradiso circuit. His knowledge of the trails, mountains, and local history was amazing . We learned something new every day. But what really made the trek special was his Italian sense of humor. Long uphill days flew by with his jokes and stories, and he always knew exactly when we needed encouragement or a snack break. And what amazes me the most was , he had great experiences of weather forecast and he can read the clouds and plan the trip likewise. We were just on time at Refuge before the heavy rain and storm hit during the trips and we were enjoying the beer already at the hut safe and sound! He took great care of the group, kept us safe, and made sure everyone finished with a smile and unforgettable memories. If you get Claudio as your guide, you’re in for the best version of the Gran Paradiso circuit. Highly recommend! And everyone in the group already missing him a lot.

I could have been happy with just the Ngorongoro park tour. It was the most impressive and we saw the most variety of animals there as well.

I wouldn't do it again personally but my family was more impressed than I was I think.

He took us on bonus hikes in the afternoons and was excellent at communicating everything that we would need to know to be successful. Food was plentiful and delicious. Our summit day was fantastic and when we got to the top, we were the only ones there! I would highly recommend this trip!

We had an excellent experience hiking up Kilimanjaro- our lead guide Bruno was excellent. He adjusted to our needs throughout the trip and was so supportive. Our entire team made it to the summit. This was a dream trip come true for me and my three kids.

This was a fantastic experience, Patrik was a great guide and the group were wonderful. We did 3 days of beautiful and varied walking. The hotel was good and catered for my vegetarian diet . The 2nd days walk was certainly challenging but felt supported. Thanks for a wonderful trip.

A fantastic hiking trip! Excellent communication beforehand, all hikes very well organised, briefed the evening before by our guide Patrik. Such a fantastic group of people of mixed ages - we shared many laughs & made great memories. Massive thanks to Patrik who was incredibly helpful and encouraging throughout. The views, the hikes and the experience was 10/10. Pushed me out of my comfort zone & I will look back fondly at this experience & would do another one in a heartbeat! Thank you Patrik & Martin for all the organisation you put into these tours.

We had an unforgettable kayaking experience in Stavanger. Even though the first day brought heavy rain and rough seas, which was quite scary at times, we always felt completely safe thanks to our amazing guides, Jasper and Netta. They were incredibly kind, patient, and professional throughout the entire trip. They constantly checked in on everyone, gave clear instructions, and made sure we felt comfortable and confident despite the challenging conditions. Their positive attitude and encouragement turned what could have been an intimidating experience into a memorable adventure. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and having guides like Jasper and Netta made the whole experience even more special. We can’t thank them enough and would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic Norwegian kayaking adventure

Great weekend. Great accommodation and catering. The staff were brilliant and the routes were fantastic. Swanage Bay, Poole Harbour and Old Harrys Rocks were great to paddle around!

This trip was completely out of my comfort zone, never wild camped or canoed before. It was both mentally and physically exhausting, after the first hour I thought I'll never make it to Inverness and did wonder if I'd made a massive mistake in booking this trip! However, It really was an amazing experience and I met the most wonderful group of people including our very knowledgeable guide Kieran, who is also a brilliant cook. The food was delicious, i was never hungry, and I always felt safe. Thank you for the most amazing experience.

Amazing trip, I signed up with a friend and we both really enjoyed it. There were solo people in the group, and from our experience I would now consider a solo adventure, it was a welcoming environment and everybody pulled together. Both physically and mentally challenging. We had wild camped before so not a stretch but it could be if you haven't experienced before. Well organised and we felt completely safe with our guide, Kieron. He went above and beyond with accommodating dietary needs, outstanding, professional and good fun. The kit list ahead of time was helpful. I would have benefited from a reminder of meeting place and times a few days before - there were two groups running the day left so some confusion. Would definitely recommend this trip, we both came away feeling proud of our achievement and now looking for what's next.

I have never been in a canoe before, nor have I ever been wild camping, so I thought what better way to cross those two items from my "always wanted to do that" list and set myself a challenge at the same time. It is impossible for me to imagine a better experience than this adventure we have just completed. It was exciting, daunting, exhilarating and breathtaking at various stages, and often at the very same moment. We had wind, rain, waves and smiles, oh yes so many smiles. Grinning from ear to ear when we accomplished a particularly long day in the canoe, oh I will never forget this trip of a lifetime. We were looked after by our amazing guide Kieran, my words cannot express just how much we valued his expertise and dedication in keeping us band of miss-fits ship shape and Bristol fashion. And as for his cooking, my word, simply outstanding. A true legend and a real gentleman, thank you Kieran. Thanks also to the whole team behind Good2Go, the arrangements and organisation for the trip were excellent. I have deliberately not mentioned the word "holiday", because that implies something completely different to me, this was an adventure. My adventure of my lifetime.

An amazing trip, thank you! We felt in safe hands with our excellent guide Kieran, who kept us very well fed and looked out for us. The views were stunning, the paddling challenging at times, but gave a real sense of achievement completing the trip. Great chats with the group along the way - a brilliant adventure!

This trip was fantastic. The canoeing was hard work at times and the weather was on the wet side - but that just added to the sense of achievement at the end. Our group was mixed and travelling solo was easy. All the necessary equipment was in good condition, food was good and plentiful, each day was well planned. Our guide, Kieran, really made the trip work - he was so professional, fun, calm, and just a really nice guy -and a fantastic camping cook! On the down side - you really do need to take a midge net for your head.

What a fantastic experience! From start to finish the expertise of our guide shone through. We were made to feel welcome, encouraged to interact and quickly became a strong team. I felt completely safe and confident with all the information I received. The equipment supplied was great and the food was plentiful and absolutely delicious. The scenery was stunningly beautiful with plenty of time to explore and enjoy the lochs and canals. We were given lots of local history and wildlife information as well as opportunities to stop and enjoy watching the ospreys and wild goats. The weather was typically Scottish with all seasons most days and the paddling was physically challenging. Which ultimately made for a perfect adventure holiday. I was blessed with being surrounded by wonderful people and our guide Geoff was amazing. I cannot praise his warm manner, encouragement and complete professionalism enough. To anyone contemplating the adventure of canoeing across Scotland, it is a fabulous experience and should not be missed.

Wow what a trip. Beat my expectations of a bonding session, it really was a great experience We came as a family of 4. Me (45), my dad (69) and 2 sons (13 & 17). Great bonding trip with non of us having canoed previously but at a reasonable level of fitness. Geoff, our guide was brilliant - he was a calming leader who gave great updates and instruction from the very beginning. The pace of of the trip was suited to all and we talked about where we planned to go, how the weather might impact us and generally what we wanted to get from the day. The food was excellent, haggis night being our family favourite and we made 4 new friends along the way. I’ve got some new great memories and stories to tell. Mr Geoff Potts thank you for being a brilliant guide, chef and canoeing mentor!
