This trip had an amazing itinerary and very supportive leaders! Adam and Sarah were fantastic and bent over backwards all the time to make sure we felt as safe and happy as possible. We saw some stunning sites on the trip too. One highlight was the three day kayak trip where we got to swim in the pacific ocean and see such cool wildlife. Every guide we met on our journey was very experienced and could answer any question you asked. The trip was packed of fun activities but still had time for sleeping in and spending time getting to know others. However, I noticed this trip had a very specific demographic of upper class kids from private schools who had no problem using slurs and derogatory terms in everyday conversations. If that isn’t you, I probably don’t recommend the trip!

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?

One time we were kayaking slowly around an island, and saw a big mound of rock. As we paddled closer, we see a seal sleeping on the rock. Slowly it starts moving, and we notice that the rock had about 10 other seals all camouflaged on it and they started getting up and moving around!
