SwimTrek Swimming Holidays Avis 1 053

Excellent holiday, enjoyable and safe. Beautiful countryside..

SwimTrek makes it a priority to care for our planet by promoting sustainable travel and tourism. I continue to travel with them year after year because not only do they plan an incredible holiday, but they make me feel safe and allow me to experience our oceans while being mindful of conservationism.

It was a fantastic trip, with very professional and super nice guides, great people and amazing place. Highly recommend Swimtrek. They overdeliver! Can't wait for the next one!

I've done five trips. They are awesome. I plan to do them regularly until I can't.

Swimming with interesting people in a beautiful location on a trip run by friendly guides. What's not to like?

SwimTrek is a very professional company whose guides out safety at the forefront of their work without compromising on the adventurous and fun part of the swimming experience. I would thoroughly recommend their Lycian Way trip in the clear,clean waters of Turkey.

The trip is a well-planned adventure. The guides are there for their guests.

Beautiful location on Green Turtle Cay. Great accommodations at The Bluff House. Safe and beautiful swims throughout the group of islands!

I had an incredible time with SwimTrek. The guides were incredible, organisation was with military precision and the group a fantastic mix of people. I'll definitely be back.

Great Swim Trek and support guides, made this a safe, enjoyable and informative experience.

This was my 7 th swimtrek. These are absolutely awesome holidays

Very good professionals, very well organised, lovely food, lovely places to swim, and looked after our safety. Our only task was swimming, and we did it, and really enjoy it. Can't ask for more.!! Many thanks Scot and Maureen and the team behind them. Memorable holidays.
Best regards, Hugo Navarrete

Really friendly swimming holiday - swimmers are grouped according to speed so you can swim at your own pace. Guides are extremely knowledgeable, encouraging and fun!

They are well organized , have great guides and their locations are awesome. They usually work close with the locals and that makes their trips even more special.

Incredible experience with knowledgeable, engaging Guides who encourage you, keep you safe take on the logistical burden, so all you need to think about is swimming and soaking up the scenery.

The daily swims and their itineraries were awesome, we swam in some spectacular waters with stunning landscapes all around and underwater. The guides, Lucia and Fulvio were fantastic, very helpful, patient, kind, professional, they provided us with the best possible swimming experiences. The reason for the 4 star instead of 5 star is again the lodging conditions which were really subpar. The rooms were again just like last year's expdition in the Tremiti Islands, like dorm rooms, dark, grungy, with lousy and occasioanlly malfunctioning showers, and the breakfasts were pretty bad, very poor and they did not provide us with the proper nourishment needed for a day of swimming in the sea. Furthermore, while the Aeolian Islands are very beautiful, the continous sulphur smell from the active volcanoes on the island of Vulcano was unbearable and evne penetrated into our rooms. I do not think there should be a swimtrek expedition on the island of Vulcano, beautiful as it may be. To return after a day of swimming and walk back to our lodgings through the scorching heat and breathe the overwhelming heavy smells was very off putting and unhealthy.

I am absolutely blown away by my Swim Trek to the Slovenian alps. Not only were the swims safe, well-organized, and accommodating on every level, but our guides, both Swim Trek and local, gave us 5-star service. I was not expecting to be taken so well care of. This is my first swim trek and first tour group holiday of any kind, and I'm very sure others are not like this. Every detail was covered, and the whole holiday was so perfectly balanced. I cannot believe the value for the money.

A small example of the level of service: we got out at our first swim break and were offered coffee and tea. One guest asked if there was non-dairy milk, there was not. She said ok no big deal. You know what? At our next stop there was non-dairy milk. That is just above and beyond. We never waited, we never wanted for anything. Even the local guides didn't just sit around on their phones- they engaged us the entire time.

For anyone like me doubting, questioning, unsure if you are capable, if you should try it, yes yes yes yes. The goal here on most trips is to simply swim in amazing locations and experience new sensations. You don't have any pressure to do anything you don't want to do, but are given the opportunity to do so much, be it push yourself or relax.

I also found our group to be really lovely and I suspect that this company attracts people like the ones on my trip, ones with many stories to tell, kindred-spirits, sincere, down-to-earth, and generally wonderful humans.

Thanks to all at headquarters for the work on partnerships, planning, hiring, and training guides.
Ok, I'll stop gushing.

This was the best trip ever! Incredible guides, clear waters, stunning forests and mountains and wonderful new friends! Open water swimming in the Slovenian Alps was a dream!

Fantastic experience to be with a group and enjoy and improve your swimming. I’ve recently returned from the short swims holiday in the beautiful fjords in Montenegro. I can highly recommend the swim experience, the hotel and the location although the marine life in the inland waters is very sparse.
Although we were on quite a timeline each day, if you’re confident in your swimming abilities, this won’t be a problem. Wonderful food at the hotel Mersk Palace in particular.

On this SwimTrek, I met kindred spirits I hope to adventure with again. I arrived with some unfounded anxiety about swimming in the open ocean for the first time, but thanks to our incredible guides and supportive fellow swimmers, those fears quickly faded. Experiencing the ocean in this new way was nothing short of awe-inspiring.

After my first Swimtrek in Turkey, I thought it was the best idea I ever had. I still think the same after the trip to the Sporades. It was great fun to meet like minded swimmers and connect over a love of swimming in the sea. The guides and boat crew were amazing. Don’t hesitate to book a trip.
