In Her Words

I am a single woman with the desire to travel. I feel a bit intimidated going alone. I had my eye on Explorer Chicks for a couple of years and finally committed to a trip; just returned from Alaska. All the ladies were down-to-earth, funny and kind. The guides made me feel safe and took us to places that were well off the beaten path, not tourist-y. I am on my way to becoming a world traveler, having booked another trip with them this fall. You will have so much fun!
Beyond my expectation is what comes to mind when asked how I liked my EC adventure. I recently returned from the Alaska adventure of a lifetime. The scenery, my fellow "Chicks", the daily events, the food, the organization, all top notch! Our guides, Ashley and Nichole, knowledgeable, capable, enthusiastic, welcoming, experienced with adventures in the wild. This is a not to be missed experience I would repeat in a heartbeat.
I traveled to Alaska in June 2024 and the trip truly was the trip of a lifetime. I have done group travel before with a different group and it’s clear the guides Nicole and Kirstie truly love their jobs. They were professional and had everything planned out to the smallest detail while also being fun and encouraging the whole trip!
Explorer Chick is incredible! I just got back from an Alaska trip with Explorer Chick (June 2024) and it was one of the greatest experiences I've had. This was my second trip with a travel group, but first with EC, and there really is something so special about the female focused aspect. Our guides Kirstie and Nicole made us feel so comfortable and safe throughout every experience and fostered such a fun and warm environment. The communication prior to and during the trip was top-notch and it's clear there is an extraordinary amount of planning and thought that went into the trip and every last detail. I'm so grateful to have been able to take this trip & to meet Nicole & Kirstie and all of the girls in the group!
I recently got back from the 7 day Alaska trip and I couldn’t be happier with the time I spent there. The trip was phenomenally organized and executed by our guides Kirstie and Nicole! They were absolutely amazing keeping us informed and energized the entire trip. I loved that they also participated in ALL the activities and were so encouraging to the whole team! I definitely recommend explorer chick - they are experienced and know what they are doing! Can’t wait to book another one with them☺️
Went on the Alaskan adventure with Nicole B and Kayla L as our spectacular guides!! Everything was jam packed-n-top notch adventure fun. Starting off with an exhilarating hike to a few glacial lakes, to ice climbing and sea kayaking. All the event guides we encountered were superb as well. We hiked some more, saw the copper mines and many different cities, a little history, a little dart throwing and dinner. Went to the fish hatchery, saw some sea lions and learned how the salmon is bred to be the best in Alaska. The guide prepared food was excellent every detail was well thought and appreciated and I felt safe the entire trip. Would definitely go on another EC adventure again! Lisa
I just did my first Explore chick trip. 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.
What an amazing trip to Alaska. If you have been wanting to go to Alaska, go with them. It’s a huge state with so much to see and do, but this 7 day trip will give you a great overview. The guides were outstanding and handled all aspects of the trip with grace.
I just went on my first explorer trip to Alaska with Christina and Nicole. It far exceeded my expectations, especially me being 22 years old. This adventure group is truly for all ages and it was such an amazingly fun trip for me. Hiking some big miles and elevation, bush plane, ice climbing on a glacier, sea kayaking, and amazing views. 10/10 would recommend this trip to anyone!
I don't even know how to begin to put my trip to Alaska into words. Explore Chick did a phenomenal job with the itinerary. Everything was planned perfectly. Our guide Jeannie was AMAZING. She worked her butt off guiding us, feeding us, driving us and entertaining us. We hiked, climbed glaciers, sea kayaked amongst icebergs and flew in bush planes. Being with a group of strong, independent, adventurous women was the highlight of the trip. If you're considering this trip, make the leap. You will not regret it.
