Matt from Essential Adventure arranged our Stag Day activities: off-road Karting & paintball. The procedure was smooth and simple with sufficient communication and info during the process. The two activities were great fun and well organised - the guys had a great day 👏.

A hassle-free way to organise a group event. Essential Adventure recently helped me organise a murder mystery dinner and hotel for a hen do of 10 people in Oxford. Matt was very knowledgable when we were initially discussing hotels/locations and priced up several options. The online payment system takes the hassle out of collecting money and means that everyone has access to the itinerary. Communication was very efficient, Matt called me just before/after the event to check all was ok, and provided a contact number in case of any issues over the weekend (which we didn't need, all went very smoothly!). Hotel was lovely and the murder mystery event was brilliant, a very fun and memorable evening had by all. Highly recommend.

Absolutely fantastic. Did the canoe adventure for a Stag do and it went down very well indeed. If you want something different look no further. Very well organised and thought out. Thanks Matt, Karen, John and Gabriele!

Fantastic experience, Matt was really helpful in suggesting locations and activities, and being able to package it all together with accommodation (& breakfast included, a must have on a stag!) at a reasonable price made my life so much easier. Highly recommend!

Matt and team booked our stag do to Liverpool for 14 along with activities at an outdoor activity centre. There were a number of changes and quotes provided as well as some last minute travel arranged, none of which were too much trouble. Everyone had a blast, the activities were spot on and meant we did more than just the pub!! A slight error resulted in a an issue with the hotel, but Matt was really helpful and arranged a refund without hesitation. I would definitely recommend Essential Adventure for any group event and I would use them again!!

If you’re debating whether to choose Essential Adventure for an event: don’t hesitate - the murder mystery dining that the hen party & I experienced was unique, funny & simply wonderful. The actors immediately made you feel involved yet comfortable and I couldn’t believe how “into their characters” all of my hen party got! The storyline was hilarious and very well constructed. The food was delicious and the setting in the private cellar was absolutely exquisite. This experience is also such great value for money. Including a nights stay, our 3 course meal & breakfast. The location was perfect - right by the seafront and close to everything. We all had a fabulous time, thank you to Matt & Karen for making it all possible.

My son has just come back from his stag party which i booked through Matt. All the boys had a great time in Weymouth and the activities that were booked through Matt were amazing and thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you Matt for everything. You made everything completely stress free with your constant reassuring emails, quick responses and totally put my younger son the best man at ease. Thanks again and will definitely be recommending you to my friends 😃

Organised a hen weekend for 25 including hotel stay, day time activity and murder mystery dinner. Couldn’t be happier with their prompt, professional communication. Online system made it very easy to collect money from each guest. Last minute amendment dealt with amazingly. I wouldn’t hesitate to use again and would highly recommend!

We had everything everything lined up perfectly (really easy payment system and itinery breakdowns etc.) for a narrowboat into Oxford, taking 3 days including other plans. Matt Trenchard at Essential Adventure was really helpful in breaking down what we could feasibly fit in, and offered plenty of additional activity suggestions. Unfortunately 2 days before the trip was set to start plan A couldn't go ahead due to flooding. Again, Matt was invaluable in the support with logistics, and was able to spring into action with a contingency for a different narrowboat, on a different canal, and went above and beyond researching costings, timings etc., for everything from new winding points on the canal, new pubs on route, and taxi arrangements to make it into Oxford. 10/10 and no complaints from a fussy part of 11!

Both Matt and Karen helped me plan a fantastic hen do with the murder mystery and it was a huge success! Everyone had an amazing time, and it was all thanks to Matt and Karen. They made sure everything ran smoothly, accommodated as much as they could, and answered all of my questions. I can’t thank you enough!

Matt helped plan our hen weekend 4 times in the end due to all the lockdowns. The 2nd time we changed hotel and it was a beautiful hotel old and modern with plenty of character ,pool and spa and a lake view I was so pleased we had changed it. It was only 5 mins from the city centre we had the country feel but could party aswell. We hired a fab conference room which was such an amazing room with fab views again,everyone was attentive and helpfull. We did a murder mystery evening and the actors really mad a difference to help move the evening on we had a great laugh. Matt was very patient with the numbers changing REPEATEDLY having to keep adjusting the numbers and payments etc but we got a great price fot it all especially once we saw the hotel quality we had been very lucky would defo stay at the hotel again. When your arranging a weekend away for many people by yourself it's nice to have someone to help you and help take some of the hassle and pressure away especially when its 4 times haha. Also your able to log in and start making payments when you can between deadline payments which is great. Would defo recommend and ise if i plan anything again thank you Matt

Matt was so helpful with the planning of activities for my friends hen weekend. He went that extra mile to make sure that everything ran smoothly. This meant that we could think more about the details and make sure that hen had a great time.
