I had an excellent time and was sad it had to come to an end. I loved getting to know both the guides and the other travellers. The activities were a blast and the community we created really made the trip something special. As a first-time solo-traveller, all of my nerves were eased by the end of the first welcome meeting, and I never regretted my choice to embark on this journey. I can't wait until my next trip.
