by: Gabriel FoulkesProgram: Adventure Guide Program | Queenstown, New ZealandThe Pure Exploration Adventure Guide Program in Queenstown, New Zealand is an amazing program! I learned so much and had so much fun! And I've already been offered employment in the adventure guiding industry!
The experience was everything I could have hoped for
by: Max StevensProgram: Adventure Guide Program | Queenstown, New ZealandThe experience was everything I could have hoped for. I learned a ton, had a blast, did awesome things in incredible places and made lifelong friends. We got to see some truly awesome places and really get to enjoy time as a group playing games at camp and on the trail, having plenty of fun conversations and doing epic stuff.
