Frances BFrances B ★★★★★ I have just completed a 4day backpacking trip in the Grand Canyon. It was hard and BEAUTIFUL.

The stars at night were mesmerizing.Rachel H.Rachel H. ★★★★★ The Red River Gorge Backpacking Trip was an incredible weekend trip. I learned a lot of skills to make me more ready to experience backpacking, saw beautiful scenary at the Gorge, met wonderful people and worked with a truly wonderful guide. Would definitely recommencd the trip.Christine Cavanaugh J.Christine Cavanaugh J. ★★★★★ What an awesome experience. Lauren and Hannah were so knowledgable about Zion and Bryce.

The Grand Canyon. I could not be more pleased. I ended up with an awesome strong group of ladies that I hope to backpack again with one day. If you are questioning joining an explore chick trip…don’t. Go for it. I promise you will not regret it. And if you could be as lucky as I was you will get Mary Morton as your guide. I’m very much looking forward to hopefully having her on my Alaska trip. She has many talents and is a very interesting lady.Gail H.Gail H. ★★★★★ I so loved my Virginia Wilderness Survival trip this past weekend! It was my first Explorer Chick trip and it did not disappoint. Our guide Lauren was fabulous! She was so knowledgeable, kind and funny. The lodging, food, hikes, wilderness training and self defense training were all top notch!Ana J.Ana J. ★★★★★ I am joining!Allison H.Allison H. ★★★★★ I wholeheartedly endorse this company! Embarking on Explorer Chick's Grand Canyon backpacking tour with my best friend was an absolute highlight of my life. The camaraderie formed with the two other remarkable women who joined us heightened the entire experience, turning it into an unforgettable journey. Through laughter, tears, and shared challenges, our female-only, resilient backpacking adventure forged bonds that only such a formidable expedition can create.A key factor that elevated our trip to greatness was our guide, Katie. Her wealth of experience assured us that we were in capable hands from start to finish. Katie not only led us through the breathtaking landscapes but also imparted invaluable outdoor skills along the way. Her infectious humor, warmth, and unwavering encouragement uplifted each one of us at various points during the journey. Winning the guide lottery with Katie was a stroke of luck that made our expedition all the more extraordinary.Explorer Chicks curated a once-in-a-lifetime trip that was seamlessly easy and remarkably comfortable. The hassle-free experience allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the adventure without any distractions. I am eagerly anticipating my next excursion with Explorer Chicks, confident that they will continue to deliver outstanding adventures.Mollie M.Mollie M. ★★★★★ I just returned from 4 beautiful days in Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks with Explorer Chick. We were so fortunate to have gorgeous weather and a great group of women. Our guides Amy A. and Ashley B. were knowledgeable, prepared and so much fun! It was a perfect trip to connect with nature and recharge. And it was such a treat not to worry about transportation, meals or itinerary once we were there. I can’t wait to take another trip with Explorer Chick!Elizabeth K.Elizabeth K. ★★★★★ Amy A and Ashley B are the most incredible guides! Had a fantastic 4 day adventure through Zion/Bryce parks. Amazing to show up with nothing planned and just go with the flow. Exceptionally well thought through itinerary. Couldn’t have asked for a better group of women to share these memories with!Liz L.Liz L. ★★★★★ Amazing experience with a great group of women.My friend and I completed the Grand Canyon hike over the course of 4 days, and we both had the most incredible time. It definitely challenged us physically, but we were blown away by the majesty and beauty of the area. I cannot say enough kind things about our guide, Katie. She is funny, thoughtful, kind, and supremely positive. She was the guide that we all needed to take the journey from great to outstanding. :)We just got back from our trip and I've already started planning for the next one. I highly recommend Explorer Chicks for any women who want to be more active in a safe and collaborative environment.Linda W.Linda W. ★★★★★ I can’t say enough about my experience on the RedRiver Gorge Backpacking Workshop! All the gals were so friendly! I learned so much from our guide, Amy. And she did such a great job of accommodating my paleo diet, which gives me ideas and hope for eating well when I backpack on my own! (Yes, after this trip I feel like I could backpack successfully) The location was gorgeous and challenging, just perfect! Another great Explorer Chick adventure!Olivia H.Olivia H. ★★★★★ Enjoyed the most epic 4 days in Zion and Bryce Canyon thanks to Explorer Chicks. Our guides Lauren and Savannah went above and beyond every day — they were supportive, encouraging, accommodating, knowledgeable, and just plain fun to be with. Our group is already talking about our next Explorer Chicks adventure!Jessica S.Jessica S. ★★★★★ My 8-day Utah National Parks trip was amazing. Our two guides, Jessica & Jess, made the trip especially wonderful. It was so relaxing having someone else do all of the planning, the meal preparation, the driving...and throughout the entire trip the guides were offering encouragement and support and delicious snacks! This trip was physically challenging with all of the hiking, but also a wonderful vacation as I got to see beautiful sights surrounded by friendly women and hear all about the national parks and the geology of this area. This trip far exceeded my expectations!Julie M.Julie M. ★★★★★ First Explorer Chick trip to Moab and Arches. Our guide Christina was wonderful. She was very familiar with the area and was able to switch the days of certain hikes to accommodate weather delays at the start. The trip included a great group of women which made it even more enjoyable. Trekking poles were really useful for our long hike in the Needles district. Our guide had a few extras for those that didn’t bring them. I was able to get laundry done on the third day, so I could have packed less clothes.js_loader
