This was a once in a lifetime…

This was a once in a lifetime experience. Even in the middle of a war, we still managed to enjoy every second.
The adventure company dealt with all our questions and concerns, and there were plenty! Every part of our trip went smoothly. Our guides and porters were absolutely fantastic! Sarala told us what to expect and wear everyday, Dikish was the best spotter for all the animals during our trip, they were amazing, patient, fun and we throughly enjoyed learning all about them and their culture.
I would highly recommend this company after being recommended myself. Thank you!

The experience of life time.

I had an overconfident approach to the Everest Base Camp trek before it began. Only to find that this wouldn’t have been successful without the help of the staff of Icicles Adventure, who were the local organizers of the event. The guide, Diwakar, was not only a guide but also went above and beyond to ensure I succeeded in my mission. The team at the office (Indira and Parasu Ram) was constantly in contact with Diwakar to ensure our progress and well-being. I will recommend this company 100% without any second thought. When the time came for us to depart, the last leg. From Lukla to Kathmandu, the weather changed, and the entire flight schedule came to a standstill. They worked towards it tirelessly and found a way out for us on time.

16 days in fantastic Costa Rica

An absolutely fantastic 16 day tour through Costa Rica booked through The Adventure People (but actually a G Adventures tour). TAP were always fast and responsive when I needed anything, and were actually slightly cheaper than booking with G Advenures directly.

Beware !

Rhiann was my travel consultant and very nice too . I paid upfront to do a tour of Vietnam but unfortunately the tour was full . Of course my money was repaid . By this time Adventure people had booked my flight with Emirates so rather than lose money I decided to travel Indy . Adventure people did kindly offer to find hotels for me but I found it was just as easy and a lot less £ to do it myself . My nightmare began when I found myself stuck in Thailand because of the mad one bombing the planet . Just like thousands of other stranded travellers I was on tenterhooks wondering if I was ever going to get a flight home . Of course I contacted my booking agent , ie Adventure People who advised me to contact Emirates . Just like countless other travellers all I got was ‘check back in 2 days to see if your flight will take off or be cancelled again ‘ . When I returned home I was reminded that all obligations and rights due to you from travel companies are to be found under terms and conditions. Did I read them ? No! That’s why I say beware . I am of course reading all other reviews and will let you know how my next trip with Adventure people goes .

Great experience in Peru

Great trip with activities all as outlined beforehand
My only criticism of the company is the correspondence was slow often needing prompt for replies and we had a couple of last minute change of hotels

Really well managed

top quality arrangements by the Adventure People team. A number of flight changes before even at the very last minute, did not cause any issues. I was still picked up at Kathmandu airport and taken to the hotel, despite the lateness of my arrival.

The Trek team themselves were so good, always someone on hand to look after us as we made our way to EBC.

Great Hotel, easy to book and make arrangements, seriously folks, go with these people, you will not regret it.

Premium Mexico Yucatan Highlights - 8 Days

All around, a great little group and a very nice tour of the Yucatan from Intrepid. Some wonderful hotels, some quickly forgetable. Some truly excellent food, but also some really terrible coffee. A bit of everything.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and super cheery. They set the days agenda more than once without asking us, ie if we'd like to eat breakfast at the hotel before we set off. As we were only a small group of 5, this could have been handled more democratically. We were all on holiday after all.

My biggest gripe, which lost this tour a star, was the transportation. Many hours and kms were spent inside our VW T5 van. It was quite new, very clean, but the lowest interior trim line possible meant sitting on simple bench seats for long periods of time. This tour was billed as "Premium." The transportation was not. At least bucket seats would have been appreciated.

This trip was an absolute highlight

This trip was an absolute highlight. Our leader, Tess, was knowledgeable, providing insightful facts about Australia while being a joy to travel with. The activities were engaging, and the hostels were both clean and conveniently located. I especially appreciated the itinerary, which took all the stress out of planning. With a group size of 23—predominantly female—the experience felt very comfortable and well-organized. I highly recommend this tour.

Don't bother, just book local.

While the headline activities were fine I was quite disappointed by the role of The Adventure People in coordinating everything. It appears that TAP hands off oversight and coordination of their programs to a local partner, with poor coordination. The whole point of an organization like the Adventure People is to be a trustworthy and accountable partner that you can interact with easily to book an adventure. On my trip several things went wrong. The airport transfer I booked was not there (or didn't have my name). I booked a safari camping experience but then was put in a bad motel room, and TAP are arguing that this was an "upgrade". Finally, when you go to get in touch with TAP you'll find that their phone number rarely gets you a human on the other end, and their "Chat Now" feature only works limited hours. Overall next time I want a wild adventure I'm going to book through a local partner, rather than The Adventure People.

Everest Base Camp trek

I recently completed an Everest Base Camp trek with The Adventure People. Everyone, from management to lead guide to porters exceeded my expectations. They were knowledgeable and flexible to manage the needs of the individual participants on the trek. A positive life changing experience. Highly recommend!!

I booked with the Adventure People for EBC

I booked with the Adventure People for a 14 day EBC trek and I can easily say this was one of the best experiences of my life. The customer service and attentiveness of all the staff I encountered both on the trip and via email prior to the trip were excellent. Special shout outs to Prakash, Parashu, Indira, Neerjala and Pravin.

Used Adventure people for EBC Trek

Used Adventure people for EBC Trek, would highly reccomended. Organised well, great and helpful guides! Only annoyance, was the long drive from Kathmandu to Ramada Airport for flights to and from Lukla, but roads damaged in landslides so no fault with the company.

IGUAZU falls 2 night package

We did a 2 night, 3 day trip to Iguazu Falls (from Buenos Aires?
Apart from the heavenly waterfall complex and scenery, what made the trip was Chris's attentiveness and helpfulness as our guide from start to finish. She made us feel very welcome, safe and her hospitality was great. She took us to the Brazilian side of Iguazu one day, and the Argentinan side on the other day. All the national park staff know her. She knows the parks in ever season and every water level. The hotel was comfortable. The package was overall great.

My first solo holiday

As my first solo holiday, booking through The Adventure People took the stress away. Due to the issues in the middle east at the beginning of March, with a week to go my flights were affected but Anna was fantastic, she listened to my preferred option of cancelling and looking at a different airline/ routing and it was resolved within a day or two. That aside, overall my experience from start to end was fantastic and I would absolutely book again with The Adventure People 🙂

Our leader Ismail Aberghouss

Real Food Adventure, trip code XMZF260403, dept. 260403. Our leader, Ismail Aberghouss, and our driver, took *excellent* care of us—100% confidence in our safety in their care.

The territory covered was varied & fascinating, with details provided about the areas. The special activities—cooking demonstrations and class, walks and hike, were fun and informative. All needs accommodated, all problems smoothed over.
