I was contacted straight away when I enquired about the quadding experience. Both Matt and James were very informative and sorted everything out for me stress free. There were some last minute changes, but they never complained and were happy to accommodate. The quadding was excellent (considering I'm not a courageous person, I definitely would go again!) and we enjoyed working as a team for the buggy racing event. All staff were fab

I used Essential Adventure to book my sisters hen do and found them very easy to work with. They provided all the necessary information very quickly and the payment scheme was easy to use. The night went smoothly and I'd highly recommend them. I will definitely be using them again in the future.

The booking process and changes I made to the booking were so easy and nothing was too much of a problem. The stag weekend went exactly as planned, the hotel was great and we all had a fantastic time.

I had a hen group of 17 women and we did the assault course. It was so much fun from the beginning to the end. Great team building activities and solo activities along with races. You definitely need to be happy to get very muddy and wet. Such a great laugh and was great at bringing a big group together who didn't all necessarily know each other. The hen loves physical activities therefore this assault course was the best match!

As a lot of people know organising a stag do is a real pain, trying to cater to everyone's needs. Essential Adventure made it easy from start to finish, assisted me in selecting the best activity for the group based on age and group size. Organised all our travel to and from the activity and ensure we arrived at the activity with plenty of time to have a couple of beers. No rushing around made the day run very smoothly. Thanks Essential Adventure. Would highly recommend in the future.

Pressure was taken away from me to chance funds for a clay pidgeon shoot, and we were all kept in the loop on arrangements, such as travel, times etc. About 70% of us hadn't clayed before. And all of us want to continue the sport, because of the experience.

Recommended safari quads and it was truly another level from the usual quad bike experience and I highly advise this experience to be one to remember. Had an issue with confused booking dates at Hotel but Matt sorted this within 30 mins of advising the problem.

James took care of all the activities and the hotel I just took care of the flights, I certainly put him to the test and he did not disappoint. Yes we were on a stag doo but there was no need to slum it, James managed to book us into a beautiful 5 Start hotel in Lisbon Portugal we have a full on weekend Took off from Bristol airport at 7am Friday Morning arrived Lisbon 9.30am, Private transfer to meet us at the airport 10am, took us to the Hotel to drop the bags off, then onto our first activity Go-Cars at 11.30am for and hour and a half, these are great fun, i would recommend to anyone... unless you have a bad back (cobbled streets in places) we drove the go-cars to our next event "The Beer Bike" 1pm. All you can drink for 1 hour... but you have to work for your beer !! lol. we then had lunch at a local restaurant 2pm (not part of our booking) then back to the hotel for a swim in the hotel pool 4.30pm. met up in the one of the rooms with some locally purchased booze. in a cab at 9.30pm to meet our Bar Crawl Guide "Maria" for 10pm arranged by James free bar for an hour then on to a few more bars. then to top the night off VIP at K Urban Beach night club at 1.30am (again arranged by James) this place was out of this world (like being in Miami) with a free bottle of Vodka delivered to our table. The next day James had arranged a lovely private yacht to take us out for a 2 hour cruise with 2 complimentary bottles of wine and a 3 course meal at the hotel to chill us out before our flight home on the Sunday morning. back home with the kids by 2pm Sunday. Thank you James will be in contact for another lads holiday soon

Giving loads of information so we knew where, when and what we was doing. And what we had to take with. It made me a lot more relaxed before the event.

Everything from start to finish just set me at ease and they took control of everything down to every little detail. The stag , myself and the whole group honestly can't thank essentail adventure enough for a truly fantastic weekend away full of fun and laughter. Would 100% use again in the future.

Essential Adventure saved the stag do from the brink of disaster. I was made best man at very short notice with very little time to arrange an awesome weekend away for the stag and friends. I was struggling to arrange accommodation and activities for a reasonable price and figured I'd ask Essential Adventures what they could offer. I was so glad that I did! I was able to get accommodation for two nights, raft building and an evening in a comedy club with food all for around £150. This was far less than I was able to achieve on my own. The organisation was flawless and the weekend was a huge success. Thanks guys!

the guide was friendly, experienced and knowledgable. the weekend was well organised, well run and the booking site was very user friendly. the price was far below what i would expect to pay for the activities we enjoyed. Many thanks
