Reviews

We think our trips are pretty special but what we really care about is the enjoyment of everyone who comes on one of our adventures. Here are some of the lovely comments folks have made after joining a Sidetracked Adventure!

Sophie was more than happy to answer any of our questions before the trip, to help us prepare for the week. We normally enjoy an active holiday, and whilst we've enjoyed ski holidays in the past, we wanted a winter trip that was a little bit different. Sophie was a brilliant guide, extremely knowledgeable of the area and made everyone feel at ease. The trip was hard work, but the group atmosphere helped keep you going (as well as the coffee and chocolate that kept appearing during the week!). Sleeping in wilderness cabins, lunch stops by the fire, fresh water from ice holes, and beautiful Finnish polar nights ...thanks Sidetracked Adventures for an amazing week! We hope to return again soon!

Sophie was a brilliant guide for our week in Arctic Lapland! I've never done anything like this, but it really was the perfect adventure and something I'll never forget. Thanks for pushing me out my comfort zone and for helping me create such epic memories.

The best adventure break you could wish to go on. The sidetrack team is a handful of people keen to show off the delights of Finland in winter. We had Chris for the week, a guide full of knowledge and skills perfect for the activities we did during the action packed week. The week is well organised and all information pre holiday is good to make sure you know what you need and pack accordingly. Snow shoes, back country skiing, husky sledding, fat biking the fells, overnight cabin stays. What more could you ask for … meet new like minded people, explore Finland (under supervision) and have a brilliant action packed week. Loved it , loved it , loved it.

Sophie and Valtteri were incredible across the 6 days that we spent skiing in the Finnish wilderness. I haven't had an experience quite like it before and could not have hoped for better guides. Awesome fun and awesome food, and spending a Saturday night preparing and enjoying a traditional Finnish sauna is a memory that will stick with me. Thank you Sophie for an unforgettable experience! I couldn't recommend Sophie & Sidetracked highly enough

This was honestly one of the best experiences of my life. Spending a week in the wilderness staying in huts with no electricity was such a fantastic break from busy life.The simplicity of the routine of skiing all day, collecting water from frozen lakes and chopping wood for fire was so cathartic and it really felt like a week of getting back to nature. If you have a sense of adventure and want to spend time travelling along 'a road less travelled', I'd highly recommend Sidetracked Adventure.

Sidetracked adventures have created a wonderful and unique experience that I cannot recommend more highly. From the first moments of meeting the team to the very last, I felt in safe hands. Chris is a phenomenal guide. His knowledge of the islands and talent in the wilderness is so admirable. Will’s cooking was exceptional. Each dish was packed with flavour and finesse. To be on a tiny island in the middle of the Baltic Sea was beautifully surreal and special.

Couple them together and you have a truly amazing and flawless trip.
