NEW Trips to Everest Base Camp & Kilimanjaro Are Here!

Absolutely Amazing! I went to Yellowstone 4 day geysers and hot springs. Savannah and Ashley were our guides. This was the trip of my lifetime! It was beautiful and challenging and I learned so much. Ashley and Savannah were so knowledgeable and inspiring. I had talked about Explorer Chick for a few years and so happy I made it a reality. Meeting these women and sharing this experience was the best decision I’ve made. I am already planning my next three trips with Explorer Chick. If you’re not sure or on the fence… book it! You deserve it. It was amazing

I just got back from Zion / Bryce and it's hard to find the words to express what an amazing time I had. Our guides, Hannah and Kayla were so wonderful and authentic and funny and kind that it let all of us on the trip be our authentic selves as well. It was so wonderful not to have to worry about any of the details as Explorer Chick took care of everything. If you're nervous about going on a trip like this by yourself, don't be. There was so much communication ahead of time and an opportunity to get to know my fellow travelers, that I felt like I already knew a couple of them before I got there. I can't wait to go on another trip with this company soon! I'd give them 10 stars if I could. :)

I would give 10 stars if I could! I just returned from the 4-day Zion & Bryce hiking trip and it was the most amazing experience! The hiking and scenery were beautiful, but what really made this trip special was our amazing guides Hannah and Kayla, and the friendships we made along the way. Our glamping tents were comfortable, the food was great and the activities were well-planned for us. They took care of everything for us so that we could enjoy our time. I can't wait to return for another adventure with Explorer Chick!!

I had an amazing experience on my first Explorer Chick adventure, 4 days of hiking in Arches and Canyonlands NPs with Moab as our home base. The trip exceeded my expectations. Everything was so well organized and smoothly handled by our two fabulous guides, Jeannie and Keziah. They took care of every detail so we could just soak up every moment, on and off the trails. They spoiled us with surprises, cooked delicious and plentiful meals, and kept communication clear and easy the whole time. Honestly, I don’t know how the trip could’ve been any better. Jeannie and Keziah were the heart and soul of it all, not only making every activity that much more fun and memorable, but also helping a group of mostly strangers quickly feel like old friends.

Just decompressing from the Zion, Bryce canyon trip. I've read the other reviews and feel like they hit the mark about how amazing this trip is. So I want to go a little deeper down the rabbit hole. Yes, the scenery was epic, no doubt about that. The scheduling was on point. Never rushed, but never felt we were missing out on anything either. But here's the thing. Your guides are the memory makers. Hannah and Kayla. Damn. The attention to detail broke my brain. A casual vase with flowers in the cup holder of the van. Our packed lunches and snacks bagged with our names and sweet drawings. Letting us shout out song requests while driving and playing our songs. A box of snacks at our disposal in the van just for fun. Walking into dinner somewhere and immediately seated no questions asked. They wouldn't let us help clean or prep, ever. We had zero obligations but just to wake up. The way they'd each casually drop back on the trails and chat with each of us individually and let us vent about our lives. The attention to our pace and making sure no one felt overwhelmed. Letting us swear up a storm with zero judgement. They carried (hidden in their packs) a damn watermelon for 5 miles so they could slice it up for us at a scenic stop in Bryce Canyon. They were uniquely themselves but also an extension of each other. Hannah has an authentically peaceful way she moves around the world and you gravitate to her calm. Kayla has this young curious charm about her that feels contagious. They were both serious and vulnerable to us at the same time, still not sure how they did that. Their behind the scenes work to make this trip so smooth is one for the books. They presented us with wonderful personal dinners and every detail was thought out. Sparkling iced tea, charcuterie boards presented on a picnic table that rivaled a nice restaurant. When we had to divert a planned hike because of weather/safety, they were truly disappointed for us. Finally, I've been in a customer service business for 30 years and these are the kind of employees (Hannah and Kayla) that would keep me up at night because I knew my competitors would try to hire them away. They're the front line of your business and your business is in excellent hands. Trying to think of just one piece of constructive criticism but I got nothing. Loved my experience!

Just returned from Maine trip and it was exceptional. Katie and Nicole were wonderful guides. I'm from Maine and took this trip as a "stay-cation" to scratch a few things off my bucket list and let someone else take care of the logistics. I can 100% say this trip covered everything and then some to get the FULL Maine experience. Coming back and reflecting on the trip I love this state I live in so much more. Thanks Explorer Chick!

Have take 2 Explorer Chick trips - in US and Croatia. Amazing group of women, fantastic guides. Would highly recommend. Food, fun, sights, adventures, friendships - these trips have it all.

I have just returned home to Florida after enjoying an awesome adventure with Explorer Chick. We hiked the Boots and Roots Tour in The Smoky Mountains with Guides Ashley Butler and Kayla Lamb. Since I am a vegetarian, I was concerned about the food being served as part of the trip - No need to worry - they have thought of everything and the meals were delicious. I was the oldest at 79 but I felt welcomed and encouraged - I honestly can't think of a thing that could have been changed. The trip was very safe, well organized and, most of all, fun. All the gals in the group were warm and interesting and our guides were delightful.

This was a vacation of a lifetime for me. Explorer Chick Adventure Co. along with Mary Morton made it all possible. Every activity was interesting, challenging, life changing or a combination of all three. If you want a trip where all you need to do is show up, this is for you. I met 15 amazing women that supported me through the toughest hike of my life. When I think of them now, I choke up a bit and hope to cross paths with them again. Thanks Explorer Chicks and special thanks to Mary Morton.

I went to the Italian Dolemites. My guides were Kirsty and Anna. They made sure we were prepared for each day, had all the details planned, and provided an array of adventures. This was my third EC trip and I will continue exploring with them.

Unbelievable experience. Will 100% go on another trip!

Alaska was AMAZING! Our guides Nicole and Lauren were phenomenal - they thought of EVERYTHING & this was an epic trip and my first with Explorer Chick.
I enjoyed every minute, every adventure, every person (all strangers day 1, but will forever call friends), but my favorite experience was ice climbing. Highly recommend EC.

Amazing trip to Va !!! Lauren led us on an epic journey through the day and night. We learned so much at the Mountain
Shepard Adventure School. Looking forward to hiking with my new tools.

Another trip in the books. ALASKA. Truly amazing. Saw so much and new challenges. Bucket list. Guides, fellow chick's and scenery added to the experience.

Incredible trip to Acadia National Park in Maine and Roosevelt Campobello International Park in Canada!! I enjoyed the breathtaking views, the challenging-but-doable hikes, the delicious food, the history lessons, and making new friends. Our guides were fantastic human beings who clearly cared about all of us and love what they do. They were both great cooks and very safe drivers. Katie provided yoga/stretching sessions before hikes, and Nicole shared her singing and guitar-playing talent around the campfire. They made this trip easy, fun, and unforgettable!!! Thank you, ladies!

We went out with Janie this weekend and had a great time. Janie was a good coach and guide giving everyone an opportunity to learn and grow. I appreciate her positive attitude and support throughout the trip! If you get a chance to go out with Janie it's definitely worth the trip.
