I've loved the positive energy of the group, highly motivated by the guides. Andy, you've done a fantastic job at making us believe we walked around the world :-). This shows how well organized and planned everything was. – Marta A.
Andy's inspirational and informative navigation is top notch. His passion for and deep knowledge of the AT is so tangible in both his planned workshops and informal conversations. I learned so much. – Rhonda T.
I loved the trip and enjoyed it thoroughly! I was anxious before the trip because I wasn't sure if I brought the right items but Andy made me feel confident in my pack right by reviewing its contents and telling my why I needed/didn't need certain items. – Ashley V.
Fantastic trip and what a campsite the second night! – Rob E.
We both learned a lot. Being new I am not sure what would make it better. The hiking itself was my favorite. – Minette S.
