Outstanding experience, all the guides were very nice and well prepared: since the very beginning, checking if the equipment of everyone to ensure safety, and during the hike. Kenny, our guide, was not only really careful about our safety, but also full of interesting facts and made our journey unforgettable. If you are nearby - please have this experience as you will never forget it

We had a fantastic day on the alpine crossing. From the start the information on the website, emails and WhatsApp contact was clear and informative. The guides on the day ( Kenny & Kami) were professional, informative and kept the whole group of varying abilities together, safe and happy. Everyone completed the crossing in a timely manner. It was so interesting learning more from Kenny about the Māori local tribes.

Good option for less experienced hikers: the team checks on your hiking gear and offer additional clothing if needed, during the hike the guides manage the pace and breaks properly, also indicating when to adjust outfit to upcoming trail & weather conditions. Friendly staff, also allowing for photo stops and taking photos on demand. Group size was adequate. Shuttle on time. What could be improved: introduction regarding the itinerary (e.g. map), what to expect. Sometimes feeling rushed with no time to look around.

We signed up for this guided hike as we were going in shoulder season and the weather could have been bad. We got lucky and it was a gorgeous day weather-wise. Our guide was Kenny. It's promised in the booking that your guide will check over your equipment before leaving, that didn't happen. Our guide immediately set off on a fast pace and began leaving people behind. When this was pointed out to him, he said that it was fine because he could still see them, however they were not visible from where we were. The majority of the group was unable to keep up with his pace and yet he didn't alter it. We continuously passed other hiking groups because of our pace and our guide's rule about not taking breaks. We were allowed only two minutes at the top, which was not sufficient time to catch your breath and take pictures. This was a common issue throughout the hike. Even the "lunch break" wasn't long enough to eat a whole sandwich, let alone take photos of the lake. We finished the trek in 6 hours, when it's advertised to take 7-8 hours. Kenny kept telling everyone to hurry up, which made it seem like he just wanted to be done. Kenny was also heard talking to two of the faster hikers and complaining about the slower ones, saying that they're ruining the hike for everyone. I'm in my 20's and go to the gym every day, and his pace was not sustainable to me. If you want a guided hike, then this isn't the one for you. It was only guided if you could keep to his exact pace and even then, he didn't talk about anything besides his own past achievements (rugby and races). If you don't keep to his pace, you are left behind and openly talked badly about.

I loved it! The guides were super well prepared to guide us on the best possible route, as they explained the geography of the area. They were very knowledgeable and experienced, and shared with us stories of their local families. Thank you Kenny and Sam, it was amazing!

We managed 8km of the hike as the guides advised us that the wind speed was too strong and it wasn’t sensible to continue Our guides Kai and Matt were knowledgeable, patient and considerate for the whole group and very informative. Thanks for a great day out. Legs a bit achy at the end of the day

A grand day out from start to finish. The team at adrift are incredibly helpful, calming last minute jitters and explaining exactly what was involved beforehand with great reassurance. The weather on the day we went was not perfect, but before we left base the team made sure that everybody had the right kit and talked through what to expect. Our guides Kenny and Stu did a great job. Kenny led us up the mountain at a steady pace that kept us warm and comfortable, as a local Maori he was able to tell us so much about the history of the mountain and of his people. He constantly watched both the group and the sky adjusting the pace so that we arrived at the summit just as the clouds cleared for a few minutes allowing magical glimpses of the volcano. An experience to remember forever I can't recommend highly enough.
