Beyond expectations! Then again we weren't sure what to expect. Lovely stay at the lodge, met other like-minded travelers (many had their trips planned by Adventure Life) and the owner was a gracious hostess. It felt like you were one happy family, visiting with a favorite aunt.

We have had excellent results when working with Adventure Life. We've just set up out third trip with them because the first two were great! Adventure Life has always listened, worked with us, and set up trips the way we've wanted. They've also found experiences we wouldn't have known about otherwise, that have been some of the highlights of the entire trip.
