Skyhook Avis 685

Fantastic trip, very well organised! Amazing group and guide, and the weather was on our side the whole duration of the trip. :) Had the best time ever; highly recommend!

Went on this trip in June 2025. Best trip I've ever been on.
An amazing experience. Canoeing, wild camping, beautiful scenery and the company of lovely people was great and our trip was superbly guided by B and R.
Great memories and I highly recommend this trip, it's a memorable, great experience. I'm going to do it again. Have fun

TMB was an incredible experience for me. Breathtaking views, exhausting but very rewarding hike, especially in last day. Our guide Grigor did a great job teaching us very useful packing and hiking techniques, managed to keep the group on a great peace and kept us entertained. He took care of each of and helping when we were struggling on some points on the route. Our group members were lovely, we had great chats during the hike and helped each other a lot. Organisation was flawless, accommodation was very decent and clean. Best memory for me was at Refuge Bonatti. The most incredible view, refuge and food. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who is enjoying outdoor activities and mountains. Decent experience of hiking (3-4 long hikes to about 2000m height) and good fitness level is required to be able to enjoy TMB experience.

Wow! Just back from an unforgettable trip - canoe across Scotland. Despite some heavy rain and wind it really was a superb trip.
Our guides, Sam and Geoff were total professionals, kept us safe and taught us how to run the camp. Their passion for canoeing, the outdoors and Scotland shone through.
Our group was a good mix of genders, ages, solos, couples and mother and son… we got on really well and this added to the experience.
I’ve not seen much of Scotland prior to this and will be back!
Some tips…. Trust the kit list…you don’t need much. Do add gloves to the list. I had sealskinz and they were perfect.
You do need to be fairly fit for this trip, both physically and mentally. When using sails (who knew!) you need some strength!
There is tons of food and Sam is an incredible cook. I have never eaten so much! Carb city and much needed 😂 there is a snack box if you do get hungry between meals which is full of goodies.
You can leave your car in the car park at the meeting point. Several of us did this and they were there when we returned!

It was a very well organised and a lovely trip!!!! The stay, the staff and food at Penzion Lomnicky was very good. The staff (Anna and Gabriela)were were very helpful and kind. The rooms were very large and clean and it was in a beautiful place by the river.

Our guide Peter was a star!!! He was very kind and so helpful and had a lot patience especially waiting on me and leading the way when descending in difficult parts of the hike. He took us to the river on the first day and we all loved it thoroughly enjoyed it. Peter was very knowledgeable and knew the names of all peaks in entire range of Tatras by heart and was very passionate about hiking. A true Slovak at heart and introduced us to a lot of local dishes and drinks which we all really enjoyed.

The second day in Sucha bela was the best.

Thanks to Martin and Peter for making this trip a very memorable one

This was unbelievably awesome. Geoff and Sam were fantastic guides, the whole group meshed well together and everything was organised. We were trusted in our skills against the wild weather which made it much more fun and adventurous, glad we were treated to a beautiful spot of weather on a gorgeous beach pitstop. The memories will last a lifetime. Cannot recommend this trip enough. Hope we get to plan more canoeing in the future!

Just returned from an outstanding trip, not tip across Scotland. Canoeing in the Highlands. Our guides Geoff and Sam were amazing, skilled and very professional. The group of people were wonderful and this experience will stay with myself and my son for a very long time. Beautiful way to see this stunning part of Scotland. Would highly recommend.

Fabulous trip that has given me memories that will last for a lifetime. Unbelievable views and company and a real sense of achievement.

This was all made possible by our guide Gracjan. He was both professional and knowledgeable, but most of all he was the glue of the group and helped us to bond through inclusitivity.

Thank you Skyhook but most of all thank you Gracjan.

Just returned from the 4 day Kayak and Hiking trip to Lysefjord - Norway. It was everything I envisaged it to be. We saw Seals, Jellyfish numerous birdlife and tried new things such as reindeer wraps. The kayaking was awesome and very safe. Pulpit rock was amazing. The wild blueberries were delicious too.

I would like to give a big shout out to our excellent guide Sinni who was very knowledgeable on the area and its flora an fauna, kayaking tips and tricks. She worked tirelessly to accommodate us and ensure our adventure was as good as can be. 5 Stars!

We had a super walking holiday with Dan in the magnificent Picos de Europa. We experienced the most beautiful scenery, passed through pretty little villages, and ate delicious food. Also, our group were the best of fun!!

Great trip, great guides and a great group.

This was an awesome introduction to hiking and scrambling. Hike to the hut is nice and easy. The hut is well equipped and full of friendly people, all with the same goal.

The food in the hut is pretty good for a mountain hut and there’s a well stocked beer fridge!

The climb to the summit is relatively straightforward. No real technical difficulties. A few bits of scrambling but this really is a safe introduction to scrambling to a peak.

The guide even let us detour to the second highest mountain in Greece on the way back.

You get back to the hut relatively early on the second day and can relax, socialise and chat with your fellow hikers and climbers.

If you are desperate to get down early you could leave and be back in Pironia early evening but the hut is fairly comfortable and the beds not too close like some I have stayed in.

The guides were really good. Listened to the team and were part of the group.

Done a few peaks now, both solo and guided. Would suggest this is a great introduction to the mountains.

Most of all, with the guided trips, it’s the people that make it. Both the guides and the group were a great bunch who made the most of this experience together!

Recommend doing this if you can fit it in.

Unreal mountain views, perfect weather, and an incredible guide Charles who brought our group together like a true team. Every day was inspiring and beautifully organized. Couldn’t have asked for a better way to experience the Tour du Mont Blanc. Highly recommend!

Just finished four days on the Matterhorn Highlights hike, guided by the wonderful Tracey.
What an amazing trip - challenging at times but made extra special by the views and atmosphere of our group.
Tracey’s experience & patience appears to have no limits & I felt really lucky to have her leading my first trip like this.
Already planing our next trip, but this will be hard to beat.

The best experience ever. The trek, accomodation, views and everything was perfect. Our guide Tracey, was more then wonderful, professional and exceptional.

I’m just back from my “Canoe Across Scotland trip” and reflecting on the experience.

The organisation of the trip, including our guide Adam and Steve who supported him, along with the equipment, food and logistics was amazing. Adam and Steve guided us well both on and off the water and made sure we were well fed and most importantly, as safe as possible.

The others canoeistin the group were just lovely and we all supported each other and worked together to make the trip possible.

Never having canoeing or wild camped before this trip definitely pushed me well outside my comfort zone and without the guides and my fellow campers I might have snuck off halfway through! However, I am so glad I finished the trip and feel incredibly proud of us all and in particular canoeing”The Ness” in just one day.

Fantastic 4 days on the Highlights of TMB with Tom leading us. Tom was a great guide and helped the group to bond and was regularly checking everyone was happy and ok with the pace etc . He also made the whole experience fun and his knowledge or the area, wildlife and nature were. We had a fantastic group of people and highly recommended this trip

Great trip, tough climbs, but Ian, our guide was fantastic. Hugely knowledgeable about the mountains as well as how to manage a group of diverse abilities, which can be tricky. A real sense of achievement and can’t wait for the next adventure.

I had the best time kayaking and hiking in Norway. Our guide, Noah, was calm and confident with us and I felt completely safe in his care even though it was my first time kayaking on the sea. He looked after each and every one of us with tumour and good naturedness throughout. I would highly recommend this trip.

Amazing experience from start to finish! Our transfers to and from the airport were organised and in time, our host Hamad at Imlil was warm and welcoming and provided us with amazing meals during our trip! Our guide, Mohammad was friendly and outgoing and had good knowledge of the hike and area and was also up for a good laugh! The chef Ahmed done a good job of providing us with good meals during our time hiking and at the mountain refuge. Overall a 10/10 experience with no issues and would highly recommend! Yalla Yalla!

Amazing adventure, most beautiful landscape, nature at its best.
Comfy tent, secure kayaks, lovely food, relaxed group and - two experienced and motivating guides. Thank you so much Katha and Ryan!
