Here is feedback from some previous activities that we provided from their group planners:

“We took a large group to California for a rewards trip. Most had never been to that part of the country before. We had two guides that understood what we wanted to see and were able to break us into small groups and teach us about the history of the area. Having a shared experience in a place of such extreme beauty and walking away with both knowledge and appreciation of the area has created a shared bond that will last for many years.” – Dan Copeland, Vice President of Procurement, Performance Foodservice

“We recently worked with Big Sur Guides for a corporate retreat, and the experience was outstanding. They made the planning process smooth and stress-free, tailoring the hike perfectly to our group’s needs. Our guide was amazing – knowledgeable, engaging, and attentive to our group’s comfort and safety. The hike was a highlight of our retreat, and our clients loved it!” – Jacqueline Jimenez, Event Planner, Truly Loved Events

“I’ve booked several corporate groups with Big Sur Guides & Hiking and they have always provided a stellar experience. The guides know so much about the area and the environment! Additionally, they are able to tailor their narration to facilitate the group’s goals. One corporate group specifically wanted the hikers to be completely in the moment, i.e. leave their thoughts of work behind, and they accomplished this. When the guests returned to the resort, they were so engrossed in what they had learned that they delayed their afternoon session to allow them more time to explore the beach and dunes. Job well done!” – Anita Cowan, Director of Sales & Catering, Sanctuary Beach Resort

“Our guided nature walk with Big Sur Guides & Hiking was the perfect closing to our cultural strategy retreat for various community organizers! The guides’ knowledge of the local landscape and grounded personalities created space for reflection, connection, and natural grounding — essential elements for our work at the Center for Story-based Strategy. That shared time in the dunes left us inspired in fresh perspectives that we can carry into our community works long after the retreat.”– Carly King, Project Manager, Center for Story-based Strategy
