We’ve just returned from our amazing 2 day hike up Toubkal mountain, yes it was tough at times but I couldn’t fault our experience . We were picked up from our accommodation in Marrakesh, driven to Imlil, where we stayed in a riad, clean, comfy and good food. After breakfast the next day, we met our guide, Abdul, he was excellent!! his english was good, he chatted to us all through the hike, pointing out places of interest. He paced the walk perfectly, I don’t think all of our group we’d have made it to the summit if he hadn’t set the pace so perfectly on the 2nd day, which started with breakfast at 3.30am!! The views at the summit made the early start so worth while, amazing. I would highly recommend this trip!!!

I really enjoyed the trip. It was hard and rewarding at the same time. Our group was great and our guides Alena and Min always made sure that no one was lagging behind and set a pace for us. Day 2 was the hardest as it was the longest. To anyone thinking of doing this trip be prepared to share space (dormitories on all 3 nights) and have no hot shower, be physically prepared as I felt that I wasn’t, even with doing weekend hikes and going to gym regularly. Even with all challenges, I would do it all again without a doubt!

I had been so excited about booking this trip to experience the Mont Blanc trail...and then when i found out this weekend feel on the UTMB, even more so. The guides Alena and Min were fabulous as we were a big group of 14 with many different levels of fitness. i do though wish that with this big group that there had been another guide to support. I am partially deaf and have always been uncomfortable in large groups...the guides were very happy to repeat themselves...numerous times, to make sure that i had the information i needed AND to allow me to see a friend running the UTMB on the early hours of the last day. 4 out of 5 stars NOT due to the experience given by the guides AT ALL!! They couldnt have done anymore. 4 out of 5 for the company not catering for such a large and varied group with difference experience and fitness levels. Lastly because i felt very put on the spot when an alternative route was suggested for the 3rd day because of the UTMB. I felt bad for the guides for having to make this suggestion and just felt awful about being adamant i wanted to stay with the original route. I booked for the experience BUT the UTMB was a bonus for booking. I travelled with a friend who had her birthday on the 3rd day, eveyone made this very special for her and i am sure she will not forget this experience in the mountains. I will be back in the mountains again soon - truly beautiful thank you

This was an amazing trip from start to finish . We had flight delays due to air traffic control problems at Heathrow and Louise was amazing at dealing with getting us from Geneva airport to the first hut even at 9pm at night. We were meet by our guide Paddy who was amazing funny but very professional. Paddy guided us up to the hut in the dark ( which was beautiful) where we meet most of our fellow hikers . This trip was very well organised , the food and accommodation was excellent. The views from the walks were outstanding and took your breath away at times. You can walk at your own pace so no pressure. I would highly recommend Skyhook and Alps Adventure which I will be using for my next adventure.

What an amazing experience this trip was, although the accommodation was slightly quirky in places! Our group was super special, a mix that just gelled, and our guide, Christel, was absolutely fantastic - always insightful and joining in with our group antics. The weather was a bit awkward for the first two days, which meant a slight reroute, but morale was always at a high with much fun, hilarity, laughter and support for each other throughout the whole trip. The last day was by far the best with the stunning views and scenery finally visible through a break in the cloud cover. I couldn't have asked for a better time on my first ever hiking experience and would absolutely recommend this to anyone considering it. I can't wait to meet up with our little group again for further hiking adventures.

A great trip which I thoroughly enjoyed........despite last minute changes to the route and therefore accommodation, due to unseasonably cold, wet and snowy weather, the route was challenging enough but doable. All the logistics worked well with our quite brilliant guide Christel smoothing our way - she was capable, knowledgeable, participative and supportive - we could not have asked for better. Hostel accommodation and food were decent enough. What really made it so much fun was the brilliant group of individuals that were thrown into each other's company - much laughing and many happy memories. Thank you!

The tour was phenomenal. We had a few hiccups with the weather in day 3, but the fact that we had an amazing group of positive people, made the either not to matter. The tour is very well planned, and we are really well taken care of. Our guide (Mark) is the most inspiring person ever. He is so protective and careful, engaging and fun. This tour would have been nothing without his amazing attitude.

Totally amazing team! Four of us were unable to be there for the pick up due to flight cancellations but Lou and Tom made it possible for us to push thru and meet the group. It was such amazing customer service since they really didn't have to go all the way out. The whole team is professional, friendly and amazing at what they do. They really take care of you the whole way. Our guide Mark was amazing as well! He got to know everybody and kept the group together, making sure to help anybody who needs it. He knows how to lead the hike and paces it well according to your group. He was really motivating and friendly. He also can really read the group and each person well so he can in a way anticipate what the group needs. He's very knowledgeable and it's a joy to talk to him. Overall the hike itself is a challenge (it's my first major hike and due to illness wasn't able to condition as much as I would have wanted to before it) but the guide and the team behind it have planned it in a way that you have a great experience. The views were magnificent and each day was different both in the trail you walked and the views you would see. It was a great first experience of hiking for several days, staying in mountain lodges, Alpine weather and views (gorgeous views, treacherous weather) and I highly recommend it!

Absolutely stunning but so much harder than I expected. My first mountain experience and I underestimated the terrain.

Loved the kayaking and hiking. Beautiful and magical surroundings. Our guide Frederick was a highly skilled, kind and experienced guide. All throughout the trip, we felt safe and knew we would get a great meal at the end of the evening. Being part of a small team meant we all got to know each other a bit better and was wonderful to meet such an amazing fun people. Wild camping was not my favourite. The rain meant we had to camp in a very wet area with puddles and mud. Mosquitoes along with a tick bite made us have a full experience of wild camping!

Great trip, enjoy the experience and Fred, our guide was great, patient and accommodating when needed. This trip is not for everyone, rain, mosquitos, wet clothes are to be expected. Kayaking suites/jacket and pants provided, expect to carry everything on your kayaks, few 4 dry bags of 15 lts (bought 4 of 23 ltrs to allow reshaping) work well. Proper outdoor experience. Tip. Fred’s mushroom risotto was great. No need for water treatment tablets. Thank you to nordic paddling and Fredrick 👍

Wow. Emily and I have been looking forward to this trip for over two years and as the time approached and the weather reports suggested rain all week we were a little anxious. From minute one at the pick up Terry welcomed us with motivational smiles and as the rest of the team arrived we were soon into introductions and chatter. Our guides Lianne and Stephen were amazing. Instructions and advice on what to pack in what container were simple, getting the canoes ready for the water was easy and we were on our way within an hour from being dropped at the canal. Whilst day one was "wet" we still managed to get some social time under the tarp with drop of wine. The weather then turned in our favour.... A wet lunch or two followed but the evenings at camp became very sociable and the entire team got on brilliantly. The whole trip was a team effort, pitching and striking camp, cleaning up, loading the boats and portaging were made so easy because everyone chipped in. The meals were fabulous and no one went hungry. The canoeing was amazing and the sailing even more so. Thank you Lianne and Stephen for a fabulous experience.

Just got back from an amazing summit to Kilimanjaro, absolutely faultless trip, guides Derek and Augustine were amazing, encouraging and very professional, only thing I would probably do differently is book a toilet, now we didn’t initially because we thought someone has to carry it, but it gets emptied at each camp and especially in the middle of the night if you have to get up it’s difficult to navigate where the toilets are in each camp. I celebrated half a century during the trip and the chef even baked a huge cake iced cake and they all sang to me at night, totally memorable experience which I will never forget, definitely take ear plugs, vitamin C tabs to flavor water, take some nice treats to share around and most of all be kind, these guys work hard and earn little so tip whatever you can at the end. We booked the hot springs and waterfall tour as we had 1 day spare and didn’t fancy traveling 5 hrs each way to do safari, roads are slow and a bit crazy so we were glad we just booked a day tour after.

The wild camping in general was so much fun and the guides help to create a team ethos which adds hugely to the enjoyment of the trip. If you're considering this trip then go ahead and book with confidence that you're going to have an amazing adventure!

My fiancé and I participated in the 4-day Norwegian Kayaking and Hiking trip between 17th - 20th August. Our guide, Frederik, was extremely knowledgeable and supportive throughout, and the trip was suitable for all levels as we were kayaking beginners. We learned kayaking skills, how to fish, and facts about Norway and the breathtaking landscape around us. Our highlight was kayaking on the famous Lysefjord, including around Smuggler’s Cave and Pulpit Rock; meeting a great group of people; and tasting reindeer sausages (delicious). Would highly recommend this trip to others 10/10. Thank you :)

This adventure will inspire and humble you. While it is described as suitable for beginners, and is doable for those who are inexperienced but fit it will be a challenge. Do yourself a favour training on big, steep hills. I can say with certainty that if you do book this trip you will see splendid sights, feel ridiculously accomplished at the end of each day and meet some wonderful, like-minded people. If you’re lucky enough to be guided by the sweet, strong and masterful Christel this trip will be one that you will talk about for ages!

Amazing experience! Had a very memorable and fun time especially during the hike. Such beautiful views and landscape. The food, culture and especially the people are nice. We were in a small group but very well taken care of. Our guides Hassan and Hicham are incredible. Also special mention to our cook (forgot his name) and his 'assistant' Elias for all the special meals they prepared during the entire hike. And to our mule who carried the heavy stuff. Hike was a bit challenging but manageable. Mostly hot during the day but plenty of stores selling water along the trail. Gets a bit chilly during the early morning ascent to the summit. Shower is available in the refuge. Definitely recommended! :) The Dades gorge and Sahara experience was nice as well. Be prepared for a long drive but plenty of stops for a bit of break. Beautiful scenery along the way. The camping facility in the Sahara was better than I expected, has beds and private toilet/shower. Slept with the doors opened though since it was a bit hot inside at night (August). Definitely recommend trip for a very memorable experience if you are feeling quite adventurous but still have the amenities of comfort :)

Really enjoyed this adventure through the Beautiful Scottish Highlands in the river Spey! Our guide Scott was absolutely fantastic, warm and friendly and encouraging. As well as being knowledgeable and passionate about the history and wildlife of the area he took the time to coach us with the skills we would need. Also very thoughtful with the very tasty high quality camp food. And catered very well for the vegans and vegetarians in the group . For me I wanted to improve my canoe skills having done the great Glen trail previously , and on this trip I wanted to experience grade 1 and 2 water / rapids that the river Spey provides. Which I certainly got, very exciting! if you're a beginner I would recommend talking to in your Element about what this entails, they are very helpful. The last day paddling out to Spey bay was a real highlight, wildlife is amazing!

In the words of Tina Turner ‘Simply The Best’ - one of the best experiences I’ve ever had and will live with me forever. As a 71 year old marathon runner, this new experience was challenging and, with the guidance and mentorship of our amazing guide Paul whose knowledge and awareness of working to the strengths of a team, we were able to complete the course successfully. In golf terms I’m on the ‘back nine’ in life but I would like to leave a legacy that these well organised challenges are not just for the young - the importance of taking part, overcoming any fears , the camaraderie when forming a bond with your fellow climbers and the support given to each other to complete the course- fantastic event, well organised and I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to challenge themselves- I guarantee you won’t be disappointed

Food served and purchased along the way was also very good. An amazing experience and might even look at doing another tour next year! One note, I would not recommend this tour for beginner hikers.

Be prepared for less than ideal weather but don’t let that stop you - this was a stunning trip with a great group.

We saw how another competitor group operated and it was clear as day that Alps adventures were so much better, from Having lunches organised on arrival- to seamless check ins at the lodges. No stress or hassle at any point. 10/10. Food was great at every stop over. Tom has clearly perfected this trip over time and I literally have 0 faults. - Makes time and effort to interact with everyone. Mark- again very knowledgeable - easy to talk to, walked with people at their own pace throughout- a comforting character. Both men a credit to this adventure, you both made it special! The views: I have no words. Felt like I was expecting a Dragon to fly over an ice mountain! Indescribable - I’ve been to the grand canyon and got bored after 30 minutes ‘“it really is just rocks everywhere” but this place is something else. Truly mesmerising . I would encourage you to remember to look around you at all times- it’s very easy to just keep your eyes on the floor in the direction which you are walking. Remember to embrace the views! Company- the guys and girls on the tour were second to none. Made friends for life- I feel I could turn up in Holland or Sweden just to have a coffee with some of the guys after a year and nothing would have changed. Really beautiful people. Everyone is like minded- all there for an adventure and a great time. Some people in pairs, some solo travellers. Take ear buds! Prepare for snoring- likelihood someone will but all character building! :p Most importantly- Prepare for a brilliant adventure, full of memories.

Such a wonderful, special few days. Some truly beautiful scenery and a real sense of accomplishment to have have canoed some 90k+ across Scotland. I had kayaked before but not canoed much but picked it up easily. Our guides Geoff and Sam were great, kept us safe and gave us great tips and guidance and pushed us on when we needed it. Their communication was really clear - we knew what was happening throughout the day and they updated us when the weather had other ideas! We got so lucky with the group - a really brill 10 people from various walks of life. The final day we all swam in Loch Ness together which was so great. Well done Helena for instigating the morning swims! I’m so glad I experienced this with those guys. Sam was a great cook and we had more than enough food throughout the day. It would have been good to see more local produce used perhaps. And snacks - nuts/ healthier options in addition would be good. But these are minor points - I wouldn’t let that put you off as it’s a truly wonderful experience. One not to be forgotten. Ps - top tip: Inverness Cabs deliver alcohol near to camp on the final night - if you have a bit of a wine-loving group like we did. A well deserved reward at the end! Hattie and Ashley

What an amazing trip! Sam and Geoff were brilliant guides, (knowledgeable, chatty and terribly sarcastic!) the scenery was amazing and I feel a huge sense of achievement in completing it but I have to say the group made this trip for me, they were funny, friendly and fierce and it made the whole experience even better for me as a solo traveler. Highly recommended trip, just do it you won’t regret it.

I loved this adventure from start to finish. We paddled through some of the finest scenery Scotland has to offer and each night had an exciting new wild camping spot to look forward to. Our guides Sam and Geoff were simply excellent. They looked after us, fed us and entertained us while they made us feel safe on the water at all times. Sam has an astonishing amount of energy and is so friendly. Geoff had a reassuring amount of calmness and expertise and become very popular with the group. My favourite parts of the trip were bonding with the rest of the group and wild swimming in the lochs every morning.

The description of the trip is accurate. It was a really beautiful hike! I’m a solo traveler and the group was lovely and welcoming. AlpsAdventures, the local company who run the tour, communicated well before the trip with some really useful videos on the route, what and how to pack, and how to use walking poles. Our guide, Paul was really knowledgable, friendly, kind, enthusiastic and engaging. He looked after us extremely well. The food was good and plentiful, my highlight was the homemade cake (made by Louise, one of the people who run AlpsAdventures - much appreciated thank you!)

A wonderful trip - this was my first as a solo female (2nd with Skyhook) and I was looked after so well. Our guide was John who has 25 years experience on the mountain and was so knowledgeable and checked in with us with great advice every step of the way. His passion for his job and the local area is clear and he was able to give us interesting and useful information all the way along which made the trip another level. He is a font of knowledge about plants, animals, geography, local conservation and communities. We were also joined by an incredible team of 6 porters who couldn’t have thought of any more lovely little touches - the Wi-Fi hut (toilet), tablecloth over the table for meals, such great food and hot water bottles at night - it was definitely an added luxury we were not expecting. The campsites were in the most scenic places and photos just don’t do it justice. Summit night was tough but John kept us going - pole pole, and we all summited at sunrise before the clouds came over. Communication was good and I felt safe and confident at all times. If you are considering this trip you should go for it! I’m already looking at what I can do next…

Had a great trip! Tom was an excellent guide and had a great small group of lovely people. This was my first multi-day hike and first time carrying a pack, so I wasn’t sure how I would find it, but it exceeded my expectations. Beautiful scenery, lot of up and down hills, but manageable with a good level of fitness. The accommodation (and showers and toilets) are hostel-like, ie shared, which takes me back to my youth, but for 3 nights totally cool, and also makes it quite a sociable. I would recommend!

On two occasions given tinned fruit which was fermented. I’m gluten free and was given an apple instead of real alternative at one point. But all in all it was a great trip and as some one with a normal, not extreme level of fitness it was very much achievable. All accommodation was clean. Never enough toilets though!

What a great guy! Certainly a friend for life. Very well organised by Atlas Vertical and Lahouceine. All the accommodation was good, maybe the last night in Marrakesh could have been better (unclean room) Lots of memories across all the places we visited. Highlights, tedra gorge, Sahara (ensure you get luxury camp - check with Skyhook, basic in my opinion is awful, we transfered - thanks to Lahouceine) and Casablanca - fantastic mosque Honestly, a trip of a lifetime made better by meeting Youssef.

Just finished the Tour of Mont Blanc 4 day trip covering Italy, Switzerland and France via Alps Adventures through Skyhook. The trip was fantastic from the organisation, the amazing guide Paul and great company that made it a great break away. It was tough in parts especially carrying your own kit each day (not something I was used to) but Paul kept the pace manageable even on the big uphills! Poles can be hired and I would highly recommend doing this for €10 as I think it would be unmanageable without. The hostels were clean and food got better as the trip went on, and always nice to finish the day with a beer. Highly recommend for solo travellers as well as couples or friends. Need a reasonable level of fitness as the days were circa 4 hours (day1), 8 hours (days2&3) and 5 hours trekking (on day 4).

As well as really supporting & looking after the group as a unit wether your super fit or taking it easier. I do recommend that you make sure you are fit & can realistically walk for hours with steep ascents & descents (it isn’t a walk in the park) Depending on the time you go obviously, but pack as little & light as poss (pants are good for 2 days at least 😉) take snacks and light water bottle, lots of opportunities too fill up. The hiking is hard & you do spend a lot of time looking at the persons feet in front of you, but please remember too look up and take in the views there out standing. Walking poles where a game changer! Thank you so much Paul & co

From start to finish our trip was amazing. In total together with my wife another couple joined us in Marrakesh for the pick up and together with our guide Joal we started the trip. Hotel in Imlil was great for the 1st evening. Lovely little village. Day 2, after breakfast we started (all 5 of us) our trek to base camp, approx 2000m climb taking in breathtaking views of the atlas mountains. Lunch was great prepared by our own chef who also looked after our luggage on the mule. After 6h or so we arrived at base camp. A very clean hostel where approx 100 or so people stay to summit Mt Toukbal in the morning. Again amazing dinner prepared by our own chef. At 4am after a breakfast the final 1000m was ahead of us. Not going to lie, it was tough, much steeper than the day before. After 4h we made it. What a view! Amazing!!! Well worth the tough climb. We climb down to base camp for lunch then walled back to Imlil. Again, quite tough on the legs, but we made it! A final night with our group in Imlil hotel before departing on the morning. Atlas Vertical (local company) were amazing with Lahouceine on what's app every step if needed. WiFi not great in base camp, I suggest buying additional sim card or adding data locally in Marrakesh. Great trip. Highly recommended

Fabulous Trip, Absolutely stunning views and Barbara our guide went out of her way every day to make sure everyone had the support they needed and the best time! Every refuge we stayed in or stopped at had the most special views to take in. The refuges are very basic with one set meal and you are sharing a bathroom, so just be prepared not to be too fussy and just ride the journey - the experience of being right in the heart of the mountains is definitely worth it. My advice to others would be: 1. Keep your backpacks light - only bring what is on the kit list - you really need less than you think. 2. It is a strenuous hike in parts - when you are climbing 900m in 2-3 hours it can get steep, so make sure you've got a basic level of fitness, and do some practice hikes with hills before you come away to check you are comfortable with the level of fitness required 3. Bring ear plugs - when you get 14 people sleeping in one dorm in a refuge - even though everyone tries to be quiet to sleep it can be challenging.

The landscape and wildlife are just stunning, especially the seals. Billy, Chris, and Pete are excellent guides and I always felt safe. Each day was planned to make the best of the weather (which was challenging for July!) and recognised the abilities of everyone in the group. The campsite is great and in a fabulous quiet location with awesome sunset opportunities. Food was excellent and plentiful, and it was great to have the safe base of the awning of Billy’s caravan to get out of the weather. Can’t recommend this trip highly enough. Thanks guys.

I had the best 3 days hiking and kayaking in the Norwegian fjords. The trip was well organised and our guide was really kind, supportive and knowledgable. Especially loved the chocolate! It was such a privilege to stay there and experience the beautiful surroundings. Be prepared and accept the weather can change quite quickly! I met some really great people and have such wonderful memories of the trip, thank you!

The trip was fantastic. It was very easy to book. The guide (Fredrik) picked us up wt the airport and stayed with us for the whole trip. He was very friendly and knowledgable, and he adapted the trip to meet our preferences. The location was absolutely stunning, the equipment provided was all top tier and they also provided all of the food which was all exceptionally delicious. The easiest 5/5 star I have ever given :)

If you’re thinking about doing this trip, don’t hesitate, get it booked. It was the most amazing experience and the views are just incredible. Our guide Crystal was amazing, very inspiring and extremely knowledgeable. The accommodation is comfortable, but basic, food very good. I’d definitely say you need a good base level of fitness, but Crystal kept the pace nice and steady and we had plenty of rest stops. Those that could walk quicker were encourage to, and given places to wait ahead. It was only on the last day when visibility was poor that we were all asked to keep close in the group.

This is a wonderful journey along the Tour de Mont Blanc trekking route, where you'll encounter the most spectacular and best views. The trek is both mentally and physically rewarding, as you reach new destinations each day. We usually started around 7 am and walked until about 4 pm with breaks and lunch, totaling around 35,000 steps a day. Carrying a 5-7 kg backpack, it's best to pack light for a more enjoyable experience. Our guide, Mark Dodwell, was really good and professional. Highly recommended! / ‘Ken Sweden’ on YT

Hi. Line and I was very satisfied with the trip. Mark did a very good job in guiding every day and telling historical stories etc. The last morning he checked out the weather forecast, because of the rain and thunderstorms in the mountains during the night. It was safety first. We were lucky, got sunny weather and left Trient at 7:20 am 😊 Thank you from Line and Hans Erik.

My paddle across Scotland was a fabulous experience. Our guides, Cam, Chris and Dan made sure that everything went smoothly. They kept us well fed and provided us with enough information to get us going and keep us going with a sense of humour and genuine care for all of us. We worked together as a team which gave us the feeling of being on a real expedition, I felt that I was challenged but never overwhelmed and would book again in a heartbeat. I feel that I have accomplished something that I could never have contemplated doing alone. I would highly recommend this trip.

I am proud of what I’ve achieved and have learnt lots about myself. Here’s to lots more adventures ❤️🛶

(Jul 2023)

Trip date: Friday 7th July - Tuesday 11th July 2023 Participants; Stuart, Nigel, Nicola, Caroline, Caroline, Brad, Paul, Sarah, Dan, Pam, Vera and myself David. Guides; Chris Potts - Water safety professional Cameron Penn - Trip and Logistics Manager Dan - Additional support and help The following is from my perspective only. The trip is an ideal adventure to see and explore Scotland from the seat of a canoe paddling on canals and Lochs, looking at and absorbing nature with minimal noise and light pollution (at night). If you've ever wanted to immerse yourself in nature in this way, I recommend this trip, as wildlife is abundant. The journey is sometimes challenging, mainly due to (unpredictable) weather conditions and individual fitness levels. Our group had an age range from 19 to 70 years old, and everyone completed the trip without any adverse issues, although there were plenty of achy and sore muscles. The trip is a group activity rather than an individual effort; you should expect to engage in team participation and offer and recognise when you need help and support while also recognising when others require help and support. For my part, I needed help on several occasions, and I was grateful individuals stepped in and supported me. It is also essential to recognise when individuals need alone time. The actual camping and eating facilities are limited; this is not a pessimistic view but more of an expression to inform others of what to expect. I suggest anyone considering this trip to consider this, as this is not a 'Glamping experience'. That said, speaking for myself and what I witnessed in the group, everyone embraced the adventure and the limitations of 'wild camping' with minimal cooking and personal facilities available. We were very fortunate with the other group members; they were positive, engaging, helpful and team-spirited, with a can-do attitude and full of support; there was plenty of laughter and smiles; the group made the whole trip better! Within the group were siblings, friends, couples and individuals, and I felt we all worked as a team when needed and bonded well throughout the trip. Cameron Penn led the trip and organised the logistics for the food, the cooking for 15 people, choosing the optimum camping sites, and how long the actual paddling day would be, depending on the weather conditions. Considering the enormity of the above, Cameron managed this with ease and a level of maturity above his actual age of 23; he is an impressive young man with adaptable leadership skills. I'm 57 years old and would gladly go on another trip he led. Chris Potts is 24 years old and was responsible for the whole group's safety and water management. Initially, I was concerned about this level of responsibility; however, I soon realised that Chris is knowledgeable with an excessive amount of qualifications backed up by real-life experience. He has a friendly manner about himself, smiling and relaxed, although he was always looking at the group on the water, the weather, and the surroundings. He has a confidence which is pleasant and reassuring. I would gladly go on another trip he led, and I felt completely safe on the whole journey. Dan Holmes is currently adding to his 'water' experience and qualifications; he volunteered to complete the trip to aid Chris in learning additional new skills while adding to his current portfolio of knowledge and qualifications. Dan is 19 years old and probably one of the nicest, most hard-working and most helpful individuals I have come across - I hope his parents are very proud of him; he has a bright future ahead of himself and made a positive impression on the whole group. If I could suggest a learning opportunity for the company, I would have liked more engagement with communications before the trip to help manage expectations. I appreciate that this is not straightforward, as there are numerous views to consider, although this would have benefited me. There were many elements which made the trip a success for me, although if I singled out one area, I would say the guides were the reason the whole trip was a success, Cameron, Chris and Dan should feel very proud of themselves, well done!

What a fabulous trip, we both thoroughly enjoyed our paddle across Scotland. Our guides Cam, Chris and Dan kept us safe and on track and at no time did we feel out of our depth although there were a few tricky moments our guides had a plan and we felt very safe and well looked after. We were worried that there wouldn't be enough space on the canoe of all of our kit and us, we needn't have worried as there was plenty of space in the end. The food was very good and we were very impressed that Cam could cook food for all 15 of us on 2 small gas stoves! This trip was a challenge, as we expected but all 12 guests worked well together which gave us the sense of being on proper expedition which made our experience very special. Lovely people, fabulous views, a wonderful experience we would book again with these guys. Highly recommended.

So glad I decided to go on this trip - what an incredible experience! Everything was well planned out and the team at Nordic Paddling was amazing. Our guide Sandra made the trip so special and looked after us all really well. The campsite was in an idyllic spot and we had perfect weather which made it even better. Our group also bonded so well and I really enjoyed getting to know everyone. You pack a lot into just a few days which makes the trip feel longer and like you’ve made the most of each day - there are always breaks and plenty of snacks though! Can’t recommend this trip enough if you want to meet great new people and explore this incredible part of the world.

What an amazing adventure…..the hardest thing I have ever done , but totally amazing. The scenery was off the scale . Guy our guide for the 4 days was brilliant with us all. We were a large group from Essex who were all friends , and 2 strangers who quickly became friends . We are all strong individuals and am sure at times poor Guy must have felt like he was herding sheep…..but he managed us all brilliantly. He was kind , considerate , calm, and dealt with our various levels of fitness with ease. He took time to get to know us all…..and was a pleasure to be around . We are a boisterous bunch , but this did not bother him at all. I highly recommend this trip, I am fit but not young , and managed this…..with a lot of encouragement from others in the group and of course Guy. Who I cannot thank enough 🙏🏼🙏🏼

He helped anyone in difficulty and was a wealth of knowledge on the history of the region and the local flora and fauna.. after the tour finished he went out of his way to help locate my lost passport then how to sort out emergency passport to travel home.

We had a fantastic time and this is truly a great hike experience - made even more enjoyable with a group and guide. The conditions were perfect and each day provided awe inspiring vistas, stories and tough but rewarding routes. Our guide, Christel, was always approachable and knew the sights and region intimately, giving us plenty of moments to ask questions and learn more along the trail. Accommodation was fine, just remember your ear plugs if you're a light sleeper. The included meals were basic - in need of some inspirational flare, but this experience is more about the hike than a "gourmande dining" tour. Come prepared and be amazed, not only at what you experience but also what you accomplish. We had a memorable time with a great like-minded group of hikers. You have to do Mont Blanc and this "express" version, is truly a great way to do it. Keep on climbing, cheers!

I would recommend doing the trip with a group of friends but probably not if you are a solo traveller as the enjoyability largely depends on the group and guide. If the weather is bad you will be in the hut for the whole afternoon / evening with not much to do. The room we were given was so small only one person could stand up, all the beds were pushed together. You do not have an option to pay for a separate room, even if you are the only female in a tiny room with men or offer to pay for every bed in an empty room. The guide wasn’t happy to I had asked. There is no water at the hut and a small bottle of water is €3. No water is included in the evening meal. The mountain was beautiful and the scenery incredible. Climbing to the top was a great experience.

This was such a lovely trip. The house at Imlil is beautiful with stunning views and a great place to start your trek into the mountains. From there, the walk up to the refuge is full of stunning views. The refuge itself offers hostel type accommodation with good food and helpful staff. I've done ascents before; this one was demanding, partly because we opted to get up there for sunrise so we didn't get much sleep. The descent is largely on shale and boulders, so good footwear and walking sticks are very helpful. Both Lahouceine and Muhammed were great, we were very well taken care of. This was such a successful expedition that I'm planning on doing more trips through the High Atlas next year.
