Morocco 🇲🇦

Morocco was an unforgettable adventure! Reaching the summit of Toubkal at 4167 m was challenging but absolutely worth it. We were lucky to have such amazing guides – Jawad and his team – who took care of every detail. Delicious food, atmospheric nights in the riad, unforgettable experience in the refuge and excellent organization made this trip truly special. Thank you so much Skyhook!

Didn't want it to end!

When you finish 5 days of canoeing but you're sad to leave and wish you could keep going, you know it was a good trip. We had an incredible group of people, got so lucky with the weather, and had the best guides we could have asked for. Geoff and Robson both worked hard to ensure it was a trip we would never forget, shared their insights and technique with us, and fed us truly some of the best food. If you're looking for a unique way to experience all that the Highlands has to offer, this trip will tick all the boxes. Thank you for an unforgettable adventure, I hope we'll be back soon.

Really enjoyed it

Really enjoyed it, food was great, accommodation in Imlil was fab, all the guides, cooks, muleteers, drivers really looked after us. The hike was BIG, but well worth the effort and early start! Great value all round. Thank you

Fantastic trip made even better by two…

Fantastic trip made even better by two amazing guides, Geoff and Chris, who were outstanding and made the entire experience so enjoyable. A great group of fellow adventurers, most of whom were travelling solo like me, but by the end, we felt like one big family. If you're unsure about doing it, I'd say absolutely go for it! You won’t regret it. As for the wild camping, the first time you wake up and open your tent to a misty loch view with mountains in the background, you'll be hooked. I’d definitely do something like this again.

West Coast of Scotland Canoe Adventure

A fantastic introduction to canoeing. If you’re thinking you can’t do this trip, trust me, you really can! It was challenging at times but Chucky and Billy were great guides; experienced, reassuring, humorous, and accommodating in every way. I particularly loved wild swimming and canoeing on the sea! It was truly memorable. Every person in the group made the trip a positive experience and there was plenty of laughter!!

First part of trip was amazing

First part of trip was amazing. Quite challenging but worth the hard work. Had a great group of people and the guides were brilliant and very supportive and knowledgeable.
Unfortunately the second part was not as enjoyable. lots of time in the minibus which was made clear at time of booking but guessed there may be more input from the guide. Also some of the places we were taken were just buffet lunches. One in particular was absolutely shocking. tables dirty, no cutlery to eat with and very few choices. The restaurant staff become very upset when we bought a bag in with crisps etc and demanded to see what was inside it.
I personally wouldn't do the Sahara part of the trip again however the Toubkal summit part was well worth the money and the experience will stay with me for a long time.

Hi Di, congratulations on your Toubkal summit! No doubt you will have some amazing memories from this experience.

Thanks for taking the time to share your honest feedback. The Sahara section is a good option for those who want to visit the desert and see some of Morocco's tourist attractions in a very short time. We agree it's a very different experience from the trek and can appreciate it's not for everyone. We hope this will be helpful to others considering this option.

Thanks again, and see you on the next adventure!

The guide was very knowledgeable and gave good support during the 5 day hike.
The scenery was beautiful and we had the most amazing hikes in the Pyranees.
Huts were clean although we did have to queue sometimes for showers.
The food was good and plenty of it.
Sleeping in the huts was ok but l wished l had taken earplugs!
You need a good level of fitness for this hike as although distances are not too long some of the terrain can be challenging .
I would recommend this hike to anyone who enjoys walking in the mountains and who wants to experience walking at high altitude with a guide.

Fun quick adventure!

This was my second kayaking/wild camping experience and it was excellent. So well organised with airport transfers, equipment and knowledgeable guides, it was great to just turn up and enjoy the adventure. As someone with severe food allergies, I felt very reassured that the food was allergen safe and diverse. The hike to Pulpit Rock on day 3 was great to break up was a fun addition to kayaking with stunning views down the Fjord. 4 days was the perfect amount of time to get in enough kayaking, camping and scenery. Would recommend!

5 star canoe trip

Fantastic canoe trip along the Great Glen trail with our guides Sam, Robson and Chucky who were amazing. Always helpful, informative, encouraging and instilled confidence in us. Their expertise got us the whole way along the trail despite challenging weather in Loch Ness, other canoe groups were not so fortunate. Great campsites, really tasty filling meals round a campfire, and a much needed snack barrel. The packing list is really accurate and all you need - can't emphasise that enough. Resist the urge to panic pack or just in case pack because you will have to lug your drybag in and out of canoes, sometimes several times a day. Also, if you overpack you cannot fold over the top of the dry bag enough times to seal it properly - capsizes do happen! I will definitely book with Skyhook again. 5*****

Hiking to Paradise

This was an incredible experience, real, genuine challenge. I knew i had achieved something special at the end. The intense beauty of the scenary is breathtaking (so is the altitude). But the freshness of the air and surrounding fragrances lead to a zen like mental clarity. Roberto was excellent, professional, easy going and not without a keen sense of humour. He kept us safe and sane.. this is not the last time we meet him. Thanks all for a wonderful experience

Canoe - Fort William to Inverness

Trip was absolutely incredible, already looking at doing this again next year. Geoff (instructor/guide/chef) was superb and the route/views were stunning. Highly highly recommend the tour company, guides/experts and the trip itself. Thanks again Geoff, Good2Go Adventures and Skyhook.

Hut to Hut in the Pyrenees

A fabulous experience, hiking in some unbelievable scenery with a good group of people. Our guide (Ian - RiskoGuides) was great!
The terrain was rocky and steep in places, but nothing too difficult so long as you have a decent pair of boots and are reasonably fit. At the end of the week, my knees didn't hurt as much as I had expected. Make sure that you take hiking poles and know how to use them!
The food at the huts did the job! Plenty of it and we generally sat with the group to socialise at the end of the day.
In the huts, the showers and toilets were clean, but not always enough of them for the number of guests, so you may need to wait in line. The dormitory rooms were full, and light sleepers should take some kind of ear plugs as you don't know if you will be sharing with snorers.
Logistics for the trip were great. We met up in Barcelona before the taxi to Espot, which was a good way to meet up with the other participants, and the hotel and meal on the final day were a perfect end to the trip. All in all, a very enjoyable experience. Thanks.

What a brilliant 4 days

What a brilliant 4 days, our guide Mark was excellent loads of local knowledge and spurred us on through the difficult steep parts, safely . Views were unbelievable and food and accommodation was great to. We had the best group , met some brilliant people and hope to stay friends in the future. I would say you need to be used to hiking , walking or endurance sport to keep you going for 4 hrs or more. You will get breaks but the pace is not slow so you will need to be able to keep up with the group . I loved every min and we want to look at the Dolomites next year !!!! Would definitely recommend.

Gran Paradiso was a fabulous trek 👌!

Gran Paradiso was a fabulous trek 👌!

Roberto was a brilliant guide.

The group was great fun with a good mix of genders, ages and nationalties / cultures.

The climbs and descents were quite challenging as described especially with our rugsacks but I enjoyed it.

The views were fantastic. The food and drink in the huts were good especially last one (Epee). The only negative was the lunches were dry sandwiches!

I would highly recommend it!

Thanks Michael

Just returned from Norway

Just returned from Norway. Kayaking and hiking. Our guide Anna was amazing. So professional, knowledgeable and a great cook. The highlight was hiking up to Preikestolen, followed by a beer and a swim in the Fjord at base camp. I was so well looked after and felt like I was given the best tour of Norway by Anna.
