Root Adventures

I’ve now gone on 2 international trips with Root Adventures and both trips were absolutely amazing. This isn’t a typical tour group experience. This is an opportunity to learn, grow, and return home with lasting change. I’m forever grateful to have found Root Adventures and am planning on more with them in the future. They are a company I trust, I know the experience will be incredibly impactful, and they truly care about your experience. Plus they go to really great places! I honestly can’t recommend them enough.

This trip to Peru, exceeded all of my expectations! I could not have asked for a more perfect cultural/physical/mental/spiritual integrative experience. Breanne has cultivated a world class trip that attracts the most thoughtful, open minded individuals to transform together to appreciate every aspect of this adventure. The tour guides were incredRead more about review stating [...]exceeded all of my expectations!ible and gave us respect for the history and the land, they are truly a new part of our travel family. Peru is now on the top of my favorite travel destinations because of this experience and the people’s kindness match the beauty of this country (which is difficult)! Thanks to Root Adventures for this transformative experience!

I enjoyed the experience of being in the wilderness with a great team. Thank you Camella, Victoria, Breanne and Dana for being very efficient and confident about everything you did in this trip. I shared my experience with my partners at work and gave them ROOT ADVENTURES web site details. I will not hesitate to go on another trip with you girls. Thank you for the great experience!

Going on a Root Adventures experience not only gave me lifelong memories — but also lifelong friendships. I booked a backpacking trip on a whim with RA in 2021 and I’m so glad I did. The thoughtfulness, intention, and quality of the experience is one I will remember forever. I’m so impressed that in a world where everyone is looking for ways to cut corners, Root is committed to building experiences that are of the most upmost quality and honors culture, people and communities above all else. So grateful travel companies like Root exist!!

There’s something about being off grid, walking the land, eating snacks every two hours while carrying 50 lbs on your back, and sleeping in a tent next to your best friend under the stars that grounds your soul. It’s even better that Root Adventures brought me 7 other new best friends. I did this trip two summers ago and we all keep in touch - and I talk about this experience as one of the best things I’ve done for myself in a long while. Actually, you know what - it’s about time for another trip.

The trip I went on to Patagonia with Root Adventures was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. It is clear from the level of thought and detail that went into this trip that the Founder, Breanne, truly considers Root a labor of love. I felt so taken care of every step of the way, from the pre-trip calls, to the coordination of transportation, lodging, and meals — not having to worry about those kinds of logistics allowed me to really lean into the overall goal of the trip, mindfulness and connection. Words cannot begin to describe how incredible the people were that I met on this trip. Our group leader, Kristen Ales, created spaces that allowed for such effortless connection and bonding. I highly encourage anyone who is looking for a truly special group travel experience to look into joining a future Root trip. I’m already signed up for another trip with Root and have a feeling it won’t be my last one :)

WOW--experience of a lifetime! Thank you!! I was looking for a chance to mark the emerging from a rough passage in my life--physical injury recovery and the release of a harmful substance dependency--and the Kayaking/Hiking/Camping trip they offered in the Pacific Northwest was the perfect way to do that. The Root Adventures team did an amazing job from start to finish--in fact, two weeks after the trip has ended, and we are still all enjoying supportive coaching in integrating the experience, and a wickedly funny group chat with fellow group attendees, coaches and local guides. We faced strong currents, encountered seals, deer and YES, orcas. We experienced "water diamonds" with late-night bioluminescence, saw breathtaking sunsets and enjoyed great, locally sourced food. We camped low-impact, and local guides ensured we enjoyed ourselves and let only footprints behind. If you want to feel supported and challenged, wild and safe, looked after and given solitude, rugged and pampered, somehow between the local guides and the Root leaders, it all happened. Mindfulness, meditation, appreciation for nature were all front and center throughout the trip, but kept really accessible for those newer to these practices. I loved that the group had two online sessions together to help connect us and get us excited for the trip, and we are going to have a wrap-up session, soon, too. A quality experience through and through that only piques my curiosity for their other upcoming adventures.

What an incredible experience in Patagonia with Root! Words cannot even begin to describe this experience with some of the most amazing women. We all came in as solo travelers and left as friends for life. We trekked through the stunning Torres del Paine National Park that had some of the bluest glacier water I’ve ever seen! After trekking each day, we reflected on the various life transitions we were all experiences. Everyone was extremely vulnerable in sharing their stories and we all left with a new sense of clarity. I already booked another trip with Root in December and I absolutely cannot wait!!
