Incredible experience that I’ll remember for life :)

This trip was incredible, and one I’ll remember for life!

We were blessed with amazing weather, so we had beautifully still and serene fjords and lovely temperatures to be out in. We saw seals and porpoise within the first hour of being out on the water. The hike was beautiful and organised with good timing, as it was very crowded by the time we were on our way down.

Rasmus was a fantastic guide, he organised the group well yet had a very chilled and calm energy. He cooked awesome campsite meals as well :)

I was lucky to have a group of kind and likeminded people who I hope to see again in the future!

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this trip or Nordic Paddling/Skyhook :)

Wild camping, kayaking and hiking in Norway

We had a throughly enjoyable experience Wild Camping, Kayaking and Hiking in Norway. Our guide Rebekah, was excellent with her Kayaking knowledge, leadership and care and infectious sense of humour. She was constantly on the go with regard to meals, setting up camp, safety and well being. Whilst we would have no hesitation in recommending this trip we do have a couple of suggestions to make the trip even better: use hot water to clean the dishes, have more support when loading kayaks onto the transporter rack, have a second guide to help around the camp site, especially meals times.

Absolutely great experience!

Absolutely great experience!
From the moment I booked my very first hiking tour — to Mont Blanc — everything was smooth and well-organized. The customer service team supported me with all the necessary information and details, and our guide, Mihai, was outstanding: professional, caring, and attentive to every member of the group.
The logistics and the route were perfect, making the whole journey both comfortable and exciting. If you’re looking for an unforgettable experience surrounded by breathtaking nature, meeting amazing people, and enjoying just the right amount of adventure, I highly recommend Shyhook and Mihai.

Canoe across Scotland

Absolutely incredible. The views from the water were breathtaking, our camps were beautiful woodland spots and we were blessed with almost no rain. We had a fabulous group who pulled together to help each other out, and two brilliant guides. Thanks Sam and Matt for your knowledge, expertise, patience and good-humour!

A really great trip

This was a really great trip, well organised and some tremendous scenery to explore. Our group gelled really well but a lot of this was down to the trip leader Min, who was a really great guide. She was interesting, informative and was able to bring the group together. A credit to the company. A super trip that I’d recommend! There were some challenging climbs so you do need to be prepared!

Canoe & Wild Camp Across Scotland, 18 Aug 2025

We canoed from Inverness to Fort William over 5 days, camping on the shores of Loch Ness and in camp sites along the way. The trip was really well organised and guided by Robson and a fantastic experience.

Fabulous adventure

Thanks so much for such an amazing trip. So far out of my comfort zone I can’t tell you, but Chucky and Geoff were great guides and instructors , as well as just being lovely guys. The trip was a wonderful mix of paddling, camping, delicious meals and plenty of laughs — glad to have shared it with this group of extraordinary adventurers.

Hi Ruth, well done on completing the Canoe Across Scotland adventure! Thanks for sharing your experience, we're glad to hear you had a fabulous trip! See you next time:)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Highly recommended trip.

From the very start our adventure was well organised, with a detailed kit list, accessible contacts for queries and a welcoming team.
As for the Grand Paradisio circuit, a challenge,but amazingly beautiful mountainous terrain. Couldn't fault the weather either.
Hosts in refugios welcoming, accomodating, clean and well equipped.
Breakfasts and lunches bread heavy but not sure what alternatives could be offered under circumstances and activities.. evening meals excellent.
Thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Thank you all x

Tour du Mont Blanc highlights - The only thing that can beat the views is the company

I had the best time with the best group of people who I will be delighted to stay in touch with after this experience! :) We had mixed weather conditions and our trip was definitely eventful but I welcomed that as it gave us some variety each day and it didn't affect my enjoyment of the company or the views at all.
The accommodation was good and there was some fantastic food to eat along the way. Our guide, Ben, was keen to teach us about the different landmarks and was very proactive in helping us to celebrate the birthday of one of our team members!
The only negative for me is that it was only 4 days - I would have happily carried on with this new group of friends for much longer!

Done the national three peak challenge…

Done the national three peak challenge in 24hours. Really enjoyed it. But I think the company should put inplace about
Maybe fitness levels of the group,as I know I could have completed it more quickly and got held back by the Guide. I understand he had a job to keep
Us all together but that was the only frustrating part. But I still enjoyed the experience and mountaineerin who I went with was really good

Hi Sean, congratulations on the 3-Peaks Challenge! Thank you for the feedback. As you noted it can be challenging for the guides to manage the pace of the group while considering safety during these mixed events. We're glad to hear that overall you had a good time!

kayaking weekend in Dorset

I booked a kayaking weekend in Dorset . It was overwhelmingly positive . Shaun and Tobias were the ultimate gentlemen: careful to answer every question , very friendly , intimately knowledgeable about the coast and were kind enough to take time after the trip to get my car going . The quality of food , bell tents and toilets/ showers were top notch . I’ll be back !!

Tour Du Mont Blanc- 4 day highlight

Where do I start…

For anyone thinking of completing the Tour Du Mont Blanc highlights don’t think twice about it! Book it!
Our leader Min was just absolutely fantastic. 10/10! Kept the moral of the group, looked after us from start to finish and that smile didn’t leave her face.
She really was a god send!

Had the most fantastic 4 days completing the trek with this company, I’ve just signed up for the Matterhorn highlights next year.

Stunning hike

Stunning hike. Perfect guide. You feel safe with Alps Adventures. Very helpfull staff. Accommodation in mountain lodges, very busy at this time of the year, and might be better, if cleaning and food in some of these places was optimised.
I can higly recommend this hike.

Fantastic trip! Well organised. Beautiful sceney

I booked my trip though Skyhook and everything went super smoothly.
Min, our guide was very knowledgeable and really brought the mountains alive. She was extremely helpful and had a great sense of humour! Everything was communicated well and she really looked after us!
The hikes were challenging and beautiful. The itinerary allowed us plenty of time for the hikes, and time to enjoy evening meals and socialising.
This was my first trip like this and I would definitely book another!

What an unforgettable experience

What an unforgettable experience! The 3-day guided hiking trip was incredibly well-organized and led by the amazing Ondrej — a knowledgeable, passionate, and truly inspiring guide. The trails we explored ranged from picturesque and peaceful to wonderfully challenging, offering something for every level.

I feel so lucky to have shared this journey with such a lovely group of people — professional, warm, and genuinely friendly. Although we had just met, it felt like we’d known each other for ages. The camaraderie, the shared laughs, and the uplifting spirit of the group made the adventure even more special.

This was my first trip like this, but it certainly won’t be my last. A heartfelt thank you to Nicola, Oliver, Elaine, Sofie, Claire, Simon, Spencer — and especially Ondrej — for making it such an incredible experience!

Canoe across Scotland with Goeff and Matty! What can we say, it exceeded expectations. A must do, everything about the trip was perfect! The stories, laughs and memories made will live on. The camaraderie within the group was second to none, the scenery breathtaking and friendships made will live on long after this. Challenging at times made easy by Geoff and Matty who deserve a big shout out! Just fabulous.
Will do this again, just hope you up for it Geoff!!
