The teachers were awesome, super friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. The course itself was great. It exceeded our expectations!! I came out of it learning a lot. I would highly recommend this tour if you’re just starting out in survival or back country camping or camping in general. You will not be disappointed.

My young son and I had the pleasure to attend the Two Day Survival course, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I suspect the previous reviewer who gave negative feedback was having a bad day (and/or didn’t bother to read any of the information provided ahead of time on the course), as everything about this course was enjoyable and well organized.
Marc was extremely informative, approachable, and able to answer all questions our group (of 6, 3 groups of 2) posed of him. The location was splendid, breakfast, lunch and dinner delicious (love those honey garlic sausages), and all the training sessions a lot of fun!
We couldn’t recommend this course enough to people of all ages who want to learn some basic survival skills, apply them in real time, and have a lot of fun!
