I took a trip to the Great Smoky Mountains with Heather and Kaylin from Explorer Chick. They were amazing guides. Their food was absolutely delicious. What I loved the most were the facts that they knew about the Smokies! If they didn’t know something, they returned every night to research it and share with they learned.

I loved my Fall weekend in Shenandoah with our guides, Kara and Katie, and our great group of women. Explorer Chick thinks of everything; I just had to show up and enjoy! From the hikes to the lodges and all of our time spent together, I will remember this weekend forever. I’m glad I stepped outside of my comfort zone with the Explorer Chicks!

I have been on several trips with EC, the most recent being to South Africa with Christina. The trip was amazing! Christina is an expert at making the trip feel seamless. She handled all the details and went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a great experience. Navigating physical limitations, injuries, dietary restrictions, uncooperative weather, and the occasional cranky lady, Christina took great care of us all!

From the moment I was greeted by our guide till we sadly ended the trip, I was in a state and pure joy and amazement. Explorer Chick not only takes care of the details, but does it in style- the food, the lodging and the activities! My guide Christina led me around South Africa all while instructing on the region and animals. She was relaxed and fun but always had her eye on my experience and safety. In South Africa, I hiked, biked, and interacted with penguins, sharks, giraffes, zebras, lions, elephants, leopards and so many more!
