The way we were taught skills and then got to keep building on them was very empowering.
by: Savannah DrakeProgram: Adventure Guide Program | PatagoniaThe location was incredible, the access to amazing climbing and hiking areas. Plus easy access to glaciers. Being trusted to use the skills we were taught was very rewarding. The way we were taught skills and then got to keep building on them was very empowering.
The best part was the group of students I got to do this program with.
by: Laura MahoneyProgram: Adventure Guide Program | PatagoniaThe best part was the group of students I got to do this program with. Each person was unique and special and taught me something about friendship, overcoming challenges, appreciating each other's differences, managing stress and fear, the importance of communication, being a good leader, and building confidence to take on new challenges. I definitely couldn't have gotten through as much of the program as I did without their support and friendship. I also would say the level of challenge was excellent and exceeded my expectations, and forced me out of my comfort zone nearly every day and pushed me to grow personally and in my confidence in the outdoors. Also the location of the program in El Chalten, it became like home to us and is truly a trekking and nature lovers paradise.
An incredible experience that will either A) give you a new skillset or B) teach you a lot about yourself
by: Chris EngleProgram: Adventure Guide Program | Queenstown, New ZealandIf 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.
