An incredible experience from start to finish. Mount Toubkal was challenging but hugely rewarding, with amazing scenery, great local support, and a real sense of achievement reaching the summit. I’d highly recommend it.

A very enjoyable experience, the guides where very helpful, keep us safe at all times, personally I was very happy with the way the whole trip was organised from start to finish.

I’ve just completed the Canoe Across Scotland experience and it exceeded every expectation. Chucky was an outstanding guide – calm, knowledgeable, patient and clearly very experienced. Elin was equally brilliant, and together they made the whole journey feel safe, well organised, and genuinely enjoyable. Everything was run so professionally, and it’s clear how much thought and expertise goes into making this such an amazing adventure. The group were amazing too, which made the whole experience even better. I’d recommend this to anyone looking for a really special, memorable experience. A solid 10/10.

Very well organised, with experienced guides that calmly and confidently navigated us across 100km of water through good and bad weather. Thank you Sam, Chucky and Ellen!

I have just completed the Three Peaks Challenge (24 hours) with Mountaineerin and it was expertly organised. We had a different guide for each mountain, which worked brilliantly; each one brought local knowledge and support that felt perfectly suited to their terrain.

I was expecting this to be a type 2 fun adventure, but there were plenty of moments of pure joy along the way... running down the snow on Ben Nevis, picking our way up Scafell Pike in the dark and silence, and scrambling up the Pyg Track. Loved the whole experience! Thank you guys for making the experience so great

I've just completed the national 3 peaks challenge and our trip was amazing though at times but the group i was with were great the pushing each other and just so helpful a real great effort by everyone.johnathan our guide for the trip was absolutely brilliant from the start to finish he explained everything so well and made sure the group always stayed together and we were safe at all times.I will definitely be booking another trip with skyhook everything was organised perfectly 👌

My Everest Base Camp trek was an amazing experience. We had Bir, our guide and group leader, who demonstrated excellent interpersonal skills, professionalism, maturity and knowledge which helped make this trip a success and enjoyable at personal as well at the group level. Kisan and Takpa took care of our luggage/excess belongings and they were really helpful throughout the trip. They were pleasant, hard-working and important members of the team. Skyhook adventure had made the necessary arrangements to ensure our comfort and safety throughout the duration of the trip. We were lucky to have good weather on our side and had the most amazing time on the trek. The rugged and majestic mountain peaks of the Himalayas stood tall and provided us with breath-taking views. The whole experience and reaching the EBC was simply amazing.
Thank you Bir, Kisan, Takpa, Skyhook adventure and Freedom adventure.

Everest Base Camp felt unreal - like something that didn’t quite belong to real life.
It’s tough, uncomfortable, and far from glamorous. But that’s exactly what makes it special.
There’s a strange calm in the middle of all that effort just walking, breathing, existing.
A big part of the experience was our guide, Bir - calm, attentive, and always one step ahead. He took care of everything without making it feel forced, which made a huge difference, especially at altitude.
Now it almost feels like a dream. The only proof it happened is how much it changed my perspective.

My trip was excellent. Sam & Sam from Good2Go were brilliant helpful and full of knowledge.
Could not have wished for a better company to go with, thanks boys.

Excellent leadership from the two Sams, fantastic scenery and a real challenge with an excellent group of like minded people. Crossing Loch Mess by canoe is something I’ll never forget!

Brilliant well prepared knowledgeable guides. Good equipment, an amazing route and the best group of people one could hope to travel with

I booked this trip to prove to myself at 67 I was still able to challenge myself, however I was totally inspired to see that a 70 & 75 year old woman were on our trip and were a total inspiration to us all. The chemistry between everyone was fantastic and that includes the two Sam's. These lads were amazing, very patient, helpful, extremely knowledgeable in not only what we were doing but where we were and the history of the area. Not to mention big Sam being a fantastic cook. The full trip totally exceeded my expectation and I would not hesitate on recommending this trip to others and that includes those who think it is too much. It is a challenge and not a walk in the park but the patients and encouragement from the lads was second to none.

Keep up the good work and I will be looking to see what adventure lies ahead for me, so sorry lads you just might see me back.

Highly recommended and 5 stars from me.

I booked this 3 Peaks challenge expecting a steady, achievable pace as advertised (approx. 6-7 hours for Ben Nevis 0830 start and 1530 at mini bus to leave). However, on the day the guide stated we would aim for closer to 5 hours, which is a significant increase in pace for a multi-day event.

I had made it clear in advance that I am a slower walker on ascents and was managing a minor knee issue which was why I opted for the 3 day and not the 24hour. Despite this, I was told I could not take short breaks if I wanted to keep up at the pace I was walking (a steady 3.3km average according to my Strava), while others in the group were allowed to stop and when I reached them they would start walking again not allowing time for me to break. At one point I was also told to “stop going on my phone” when I had briefly stopped for water and a photo, the first time I had taken my phone out on the climb, and we were approaching an hour in.

My understanding of group hiking etiquette is that the pace should consider the slowest participant, or that groups should be managed accordingly. This did not happen, and I felt not only unsupported but that Kevin was rude towards me as I was slightly slower than the rest of the group.

As a result, I chose to withdraw on the ascent as the pace and approach did not match what was advertised or what I had booked.

I would recommend this trip only for those confident in maintaining a faster-than-advertised pace, rather than those looking for a more moderate 3-day challenge.

A fantastic trip! We’re still pinching ourselves that we flew out for three days an climbed Toubkal in the middle!
Hosting and guide were great. The food was very very tasty and the hospitality wonderfully welcoming!
It’s a tough slog and you need to be pretty fit. The refuge was a lot of fun, but with 25 person rooms, won’t be to everyone’s taste.
Some of our group arrived early and left late, but we flew in on the first day and out on the last, so it’s manageable.
A brilliant group of likeminded people made it more fun, and whilst we went as a group of four, most of the group were individuals- it didn’t matter.
I’ll definitely go with Skyhook again.

The Garden route & Addo Elephant park is a breathtaking trip that delivers on all levels! The scenic drive offers a constant changing landscape, dramatic mountains, golden beaches, along with an incredible variety of wildlife!! South Africa is a magical destination that never stops surprising you, with each day bringing something new and memorable. The food throughout the trip was delicious and the accommodation exceeded all expectations. Gareth, our guide, elevated the entire experience—his confident driving and deep knowledge of the route added so much to the experience. If you’re looking for a unique and unforgettable adventure, I couldn’t recommend this trip more!
The experience was just as described in the company's itinerary and much more. An epic journey! Great value for money. Well organised and an excellent guide!!!

What an amazing place! So beautiful with lovely friendly locals.
Our guides took such great care of us and I loved my time there!

Great trip, amazing guides fantastic food

The trip was very well organized. The activities very nice and safe, the hotels were very good and the food amazing. On the other hand, our guide Jonathan knew very well the place, but he was very nonchalant, was tired most of the time, he didn’t say everything about the trip, and at the end, he got too “friendly” with my daughter.

Mt Toubkal, High Atlas Mountains was made unforgettable by the people met along the way.

Guides were amazing (Hassan , Lhacen).
Helpful and attentive, humorous. Including the cooks!
Everything was covered well and everyone responded brilliantly.

I personally recommend Ayoub and Abdul at Riad bab Imlil, Mountain eco lodge.
Well organised, got in contact with each of us and made sure we were all in the loop.
(P.s heated room downstairs! But all rooms had extra blankets.)

They really put the cherry on the cake with great food, great advise and great sleeping arrangements.
Not to mention sound motivation.

10/10 would bring others here again

Another amazing trip with Skyhook.
1st time trying a winter hike and it was great. Slovakia is beautiful, great value for money and has so many activities on offer. I highly recommend and will be visiting again. 3rd trip with skyhook and all have been excellent.
