An incredible experience that will either A) give you a new skillset or B) teach you a lot about yourself
January 22, 2025by: Chris EngleIf you're on the fence about taking the course, do it. It's an incredible experience that will either A) give you a new skillset or B) teach you a lot about yourself. Even if you don't end up working in the industry, the memories and stories you'll have make it worth it.
Opened up so many doors within the industry
December 25, 2024by: Dan LobbHonestly the best way to explore Aotearoa/New Zealand. You learn so much about the local environment and gain new skills along the way. Met a bunch of amazing people that are now friends for life. I had never rock climbed before this program and now have the confidence to climb myself and skills to take friends out climbing. I came into the program looking for a career change and this has opened up so many doors within the industry.
Having great connections with people because you are living all your emotions with them
December 25, 2024by: Charlotte HebertIt's really nice to see New Zealand in an other perspective than the tourist eye. Being able to travel around and do some climbing and tramping as a local. Having great connections with people because you are living all your emotions with them and 24/7.
Spending time in the outdoors and disconnecting from social media was also a highlight.
December 25, 2024by: Hayden BakerAll the climbing, especially around Wānaka. I got to develop and learn skills I’ve been wanting to know for a while like building anchors and setting up climbs for myself and my friends. Spending time in the outdoors and disconnecting with from social media was also a highlight.
It was amazing
December 19, 2024by: Sofie GraveI had only ever been climbing indoors before, this was my first time outdoors and it was amazing, it was definitely a highlight for me. Besides climbing. - Meeting everyone else was amazing! So many different people with a shared “passion” for the outdoors.
Create great memories together
December 01, 2024by: Alex SpencerMy favourite part of the program was meeting and getting to know others from all over the world and watching them grow and succeed at new skills. I loved seeing people be happy in the outdoors and create great memories together, even in challenging times.
I had an amazing time!
July 15, 2024by: Eliana Carr - United StatesProgram: Peru Service and Adventure Travel Programs - Rustic Pathways
The Andes to Amazon trip in Peru was amazing! I got to meet a ton of new friends while traveling and exploring this amazing country! We got to see such a wide range of places that I got to really understand Peru!
Hey Eliana! Peru IS amazing and we're glad that you got to go there and explore a wide range of places. We hope our paths cross again next summer!
Amazing trip to Peru!
July 02, 2024by: Ella Stolarzyk - United StatesProgram: Peru Service and Adventure Travel Programs - Rustic Pathways
I attended the college-aged Rustic Pathways trip to Peru this summer! I had an incredible and life changing experience. The staff was friendly, the other students were extremely kind & the activities we participated in were once in a lifetime! I highly recommend this trip to any student aged 18-22.
Hi Ella! Thanks so much for joining us in Peru. We're happy you had a great time! Maybe we'll see you on another college program next summer!
The experience was everything I could have hoped for
May 06, 2024by: Max StevensThe experience was everything I could have hoped for. I learned a ton, had a blast, did awesome things in incredible places and made lifelong friends. We got to see some truly awesome places and really get to enjoy time as a group playing games at camp and on the trail, having plenty of fun conversations and doing epic stuff.
Amazing program
May 06, 2024by: Gabriel FoulkesThe Pure Exploration Adventure Guide Program in Queenstown, New Zealand is an amazing program! I learned so much and had so much fun! And I've already been offered employment in the adventure guiding industry!
You learn a lot
May 02, 2024by: Briana ManguetteThe best part of the Adventure Guide Program in New Zealand was doing every activity (hiking, rock climbing, pack rafting, and general exploring) with each other and sharing the same experiences, you learn a lot and meet awesome people.
Best choice of my life
April 12, 2024by: Chace CrowellStaying in New Zealand for these 3 months has been the best choice of my life. I've had a complete career change. Spending all of this time in the outdoors has made me very appreciative of the nature around us especially in these trying times of the world.
Great program
April 10, 2024by: Carson PoczciwinskiStoked I can go home and take friends outdoors safely and teach them how to properly belay and climb. Also the instructors in the program planned great trips and were professional throughout the program.
Fantastic for so many reasons
April 07, 2024by: Grayson RedmondThis program with Pure Exploration is fantastic for so many reasons. Whether you are trying to get a foothold in the adventure tourism industry, or just need a reset/break in your life, come out and explore NZ!
Ashley From Interexchange
April 06, 2024by: Averi Chandler - United StatesProgram: Work and Travel Canada
It is rare that you have a customer service experience that feels so special it makes you want to go out of your way to get other people to experience it. It is even harder to make a customer experience feel special when there no face to face interaction, but Ashley from interexchange seemed to have no problem at all. From the jump she was responsive, helpful, and kind. Whenever I had a question or concern about the process she either answered it thoroughly, or pointed me in the direction of someone who could. Deadlines are super important when it comes to visas as well as attention to detail and these guys know their craft! Not only were the application instructions clear and thorough, but the staff followed up when there were changes or questions asked to make sure that everything was done correctly and I had all of the information that I needed. Someone give Ashley a raise!
Cool places each week to see
April 03, 2024by: Ben WeberThe best part of the program was they picked really cool places each week to see, whether it was hiking or climbing. They accommodated me with some Lord of the Rings sites as well. Excellent at teaching & guiding from the program instructors too.
The Highlight of My Year!
January 02, 2024by: Ashley Cruz - United StatesProgram: Exploring Italy & Greece: Ruins, Culture & Coastlines
My experience on my trip to Italy and Greece with Putney Student Travel was the highlight of my year! I made many new friends along the way all from different places that made the trip even more enjoyable. I discovered many new foods, places, and cultures. I found a new person within myself that made me into a very out going and living to my fullest person. Having had the opportunity to be apart of the Italy and Greece trip was the best trip to occur during my summer and has filled me with endless beautiful memories that will last a lifetime!
Epic three months and made loads of friends!
December 20, 2023by: Craig Robinson - United KingdomEpic three months and made loads of friends! I would recommend the Adventure Guide Program to anyone looking to get into guiding or looking to up skill in rock climbing and hiking outdoors. It was awesome getting to use the skills we have learnt to send some hard climbs!
It gave me the confidence to go on hikes on my own
December 18, 2023by: Robbert van VeenI would recommend the adventure guide program to everyone who wants to get started in the outdoors. Whether it is for work or for the personal experience. I learned so much about how to be in the outdoors safely. It gave me the confidence to go on hikes on my own or take people with me, knowing that I got the skills to keep the group safe.
New people and experience
December 15, 2023by: Kaela BarnesBest part of the program in New Zealand would be seeing and experiencing new places within New Zealand and getting to learn more about the culture. Getting to meet new people and experience these things with them.
