NATURE CONSERVATION THROUGH ADVENTURE TRAVEL

”I slutet av maj var jag med på Green Trails Nybörjarkurs för Seglingsintyg 1. Jag hade lite erfarenhet sedan tidigare genom att jag ägt segelbåt under 5 år för ca 10-15 år sedan, men då lärde jag mig aldrig själva seglingstekniken utan åkte mest med och gjorde som jag blev tillsagd. I och med denna kurs fick jag verkligen flera a-ha upplevelser om hur allt hänger ihop. Vi var fyra på kursen, som började med teori med instruktören Pierre på Söder. På praktiken var vi ute en heldag med Pierre i hans ”Hallonvind”, en perfekt båt för att öva med! På förmiddagen hade vi lätt vind, men kryss hela vägen ut från Gålö så vi fick jobba ordentligt redan från början. Lunchankring i en vik vid Ornö, med delikat lunch som Pierre trollade fram. Sedan tuffare segling tillbaka då vinden hade tilltagit ganska rejält på eftermiddagen. Men det var jättekul, kändes mycket tryggt med Pierre vid vår sida. Vi hann med mycket övning av olika moment under hela dagen, vilket var väldigt bra. Jag kan verkligen rekommendera denna kurs, och provet var superenkelt efter att ha genomgått dessa två dagar.”

”My boyfriend and I just returned from our trip and I cannot thank our tour guides enough for making the experience so great. They were so knowledgeable and we ended up being the only ones on that tour that day so it felt like a very personable VIP experience. We were taken on all sorts of different habitats within the nature hike. Great for pictures and just soaking in on Swedish native wildlife. We chatted a ton and bonded eating our vegetarian lunches, it felt like we were hanging out and having a nature day with some friends. I highly recommend them for there professionalism and just overall attention to having customers experience something memorable. Thanks again I hope to be back!”

”we had a full day of hiking, trekking on trails, off piste and on frozen lakes. It was a small group of 4, including Eric, our guide. I can only repeat what has been said before – Eric is a funny guy – loads of jokes, witty stories and interesting facts about the area – which he clearly knows inside out. We made a fire and had the most amazing lunch ever (it is supplied by Green Trails). The best day we had in Stockholm. If you are in any doubt – book it and enjoy a proper day with this amazing nature 🙂”

”The sailing course was super fun! Pierre is very didactical and will make learning very easy :)Totally recommend”

”I stumbled across the Green Trials before our trip to Stockholm, and boy am I glad we did! Coming from London, ice skating like this is so unheard of. Our guide Pierre was so nice. Very welcoming, accommodating, and really listened to us. Thank you for creating such a great memory of our time in Stockholm, recommend to anyone!”

”The moose safari was the absolute highlight of our trip to Stockholm! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. I learned a lot about Stockholm wildlife and maybe it is worth to mention the Green Trails are very concerned with sustainability as well. Mind you, it is not a safari like you would have in Africa, the animals are incredibly shy and hard to spot, which made it the more exciting when we spotted a moose about 10 meters away! Overall a great experience and I will definitely try their kayaking tour next time I am in Stockholm.”

”I had done this amazing Sea Kayaking adventure with the Green Trails last year. I had so much fun it was the highlight of my Sweden trip! I went again this year and it was equally fun. Piotr my guide and owner of The Green Trails was extremely knowledgeable and I highly recommend it. Most people just go and see the same boring things and they miss out on true adventures and unique memories (and awesome work outs) this one had it all!”

”one day in the forest and one ice-skating – both trips truly memorable and bucket list moments achieved! We could not recommend Green Trails more. They took any concerns we had away, kept us safe and brought us to places we would never have experienced without them!!!”

“Being a beginner sailor, it was really helpful and fun to have Pierre onboard. I’ve learned a lot and immediately felt more confident sailing my own boat by myself thanks to the experience gained during the day. I highly recommend this to anyone who would want to quickly get enough skills and confidence to start sailing!” 

”I really love how flexible the tour was. Some people got tired faster than the others and it was no problem for the guides to split up so everyine could do what they wanted to. The guides were very friendly and helpfull and he trip was organized perfectly. I would defenitely recommend it to everyone!”
