Skyhook レビュー 701

What an amazing experience! The activities were brilliant and surrounded by beautiful scenery. The instructors were absolutely lovely, very knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend this trip.

A fantastic experience. We went as a party of 6 and met a great group of people including Kev our guide and driver. Booking the guided trip meant that we didnt have to worry about transfers or accomodation or where to park. We could just enjoy the hikes. Although I would say I am fit (57) I was apprehensive due to reviews about the terrain but we were fine even Ben Nevis which was all snow 1000 m up. It wasnt easy by any means and long days as transfers were around 4 - 5 hours but what a laugh and a great experience. I would definitely recommend.

We had an excellent trip well planned and executed very well from start to finish.
Equipment and start briefing provided by Chukky were very good.
Our guides from Good2GoAdventures, Pete and Dave, looked after us very well both on and off the water. They "read the room" and adjusted as required to make the whole group comfortable.

The trip was challenging both on some rough water and some long portage however all very manageable; again due to Pete and Dave noting what support was needed.

Would definitely consider similar trips in the future.

The hike up Mount Olympus was great , Akis our guide was a top man..Very knowledgeable in the area.. Would book with Skyhook again...

In the longstanding challenge to spend the son and heir's inheritance in creative ways we booked this trip. Short version is that it was brilliant!

In our late sixties, we were the eldest in the group but never once did we feel out of place. Chuckie and Elin, the guides, supported all of us all the way and even on the hardest days made sure we were all supported and not left behind. When we capsized (yes it can happen and it was our fault) they were on the spot and had us out and on the way in short order. They also made great meals every night.

It is hardish work. A base level of fitness was a definite advantage, more might have been better, but it was achievable, we just kept going. The rewards were well worth it. There is stunning scenery along the route and the camaraderie that developed in our group was glorious.

One last piece of advice, you don't need many clothes but lots of dry socks is a definite plus!

Just back from my 6th Skyhook adventure.
Have to say this trip was exceptional.
Our guide Tes was outstanding and went above and beyond what should be expected of a guide , also Victor our driver for the week was a really pleasant guy .
The location , accommodation and the itinerary were all exceptional.
Albania is well worth visiting and I could not recommend this trip highly enough to anyone who may be considering it .Sean

Just completed the canoe trip accross Scotland. Great trip, the leaders Dave and Pete were very helpfull and full of knowledge. Wouls advise anyone to book it.

This was an amazing trip! Pete and Dave were wonderful guides, supporting us through the more challenging parts of the journey and giving us loads of helpful info. The wild campsites were brilliant and the meals they cooked were delicious. They encouraged us to work as a team both on and off the water (you need to portage around several locks), and gauged our energy levels for each part really well, explaining the options we had for getting to the next rest stop or overnight stay. The scenery is stunning and it feels like a true achievement when you get to the end.

Great trip with 2 fantastic guides - Chuckey and Elin. Highly recommend. All gear provided, food was good, great group of paddlers. Our 2 guides were knowledgeable, competent and looked after us well.

Fabulous time! The weather was very kind to us - we had a taste of everything it seems - the gentle canoeing through the stillwater canals & lochs surrounded by pine forests & mountain peaks is just beautiful. The leader (Robson) expertly guided us in the logistics of portaging around the locks and finding & setting up wild camps. We also had the opportunity to adopt the rafting technique for more stability & teamwork in choppy waters. Plus we tried a bit of sailing in our canoes! On top of all these experiences was the convenience of all equipment being provided by the company, we just needed to bring ourselves & personal clothing/footwear etc. Robson also took photos/videos for us to take away. 5/5 stars!

A really excellent trip. Well organized with a guide who knows his stuff, and a very competent assistant. The canoes were stable and handled well. Days were not too strenuous, though you were paddling for up to 6 hours a day with breaks. Portages were short except for Ft Augustus. I'm 70 and didn't have any issues. Wild campsites were generally very good and the food reasonable for the preparation and storage conditions. Our group mainly gelled very well, with plenty of campfire socializing in the evenings ( and at other times when we took breaks). I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

From start to finish I was looked after really well, especially as my stay was slightly off-itinerary. I was helped by Lahouciene with my transfer arrangements and was welcomed by everyone at Riad Bab (shout out to a very patient Abdul!). From arranging a solo room to help with my very heavy bag, even on to the next Riad.

I found this a challenging experience from start to finish, both mentally and physically. I will add that I’m not used to travelling alone or trekking at altitude.

Our guides Hasan and Ayoub looked after our group really well, keeping us informed, checking up on our welfare, feeding us, pacing our climb and descent and all with such a great sense of humour.

Highlights for me: our guides/our group/seeing mountain life/stunning scenery.
Lowlights: the refuge was very crowded but, it’s a mountain hut and it did the job/my cardio fitness needs work.

Overall, I’m not sure I could have booked with anyone else and had a better experience. Thoroughly recommend!

It was incredible, from the start to the finish ! For many reasons ! Of course the views were breathtaking! Rich our guide was great, on the last peak Snowdon, near the top i had a moment were I needed to dig deep, Rich’s encouragement gave me exactly what I needed for the last push ! He was a wealth of knowledge/ experience and was amazing with the whole team over the 24hrs each there for different reasons. I’ve learnt so much and given me confidence and a new love to go and explore further ! Thank you once again for the smooth organisation throughout , the drivers , and Rich the ‘mountain goat’ top guy !

I booked this trip up for myself and a friend as we were both turning 60. I was panicking before we arrived as I knew fine well I was out of shape and thought I might have bitten off more than I could chew. Despite all my fears and misgivings we rock up to discover we were not the oldest a 70 year old woman was also on the trip. Our guide Chris was so helpful and patient making sure we were firstly safe but also encouraging and cajoling us to really challenge ourselves. I had the best time, yes it was challenging and I was tired out at the end of every day but it was a good tired a feeling that we’d achieved something. Chris and Oli were amazing and so incredibly lovely and helpful. I would recommend this trip to anyone with a can do attitude that wants to blow the cobwebs off and likes to work as part of a team because
we all needed to muck in carrying equipment supplies etc to camp and back again. What an incredible experience, I think I might have caught the bug for the great outdoors. Thank you Chris and Oli you were the best.

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
