I would also like to mention that during our 4 day / 3 night hike, we encountered
several other hikers along the trail who were with various other tour companies (some of which I had researched prior to booking with Active Adventures), and were told several stories about various mishaps and / or negative experiences they were having with their tour leaders... perhaps we lucked out with our fantastic tour leader, but I definitely do not regret for a second my decision to ring in the third decade of my life with Active Adventures!
