2022 in Review: Guest Favourites

Looking back on the past year and reminiscing about travel is always fun. Especially with a mug of hot chocolate or a nice glass of wine in hand. Looking back to 2022 in review, we were thrilled to run many rowing trips in Canada and Europe. Of course, there were ongoing challenges but we were thrilled to be back running trips in beautiful locations with new and old rowing friends. Following each trip, we send an evaluation to our guests. There is always lots for us to learn and continue to improve, as well as knowing what is working just right and should be continued. One of the last questions on the form is “What was your favourite part of the trip?”. Here are a few answers, our first look at 2022 in review!

“Meeting everyone, the way the groups worked together, seeing that part of world and taking me out of my comfort zone.”

“The experience of entire day of the Vogalonga and the celebration, dinner and making new friends.”

“Rowing in the beautiful Barkley Sound and the Broken Islands – rough water, riding waves, calm waters, rainy, sunny (and no one complaining!)”
Donnee W.

“The people and the boats. And the food. It was all fabulous.”

“Scenery. Lock keepers and their gardens. The participants were a good bunch.”

“Watching whale spouts, the emerald water, the night sky, visiting First Nation islands, rowing with new friends.”

“Rowing quietly in quad that felt strong and in rhythm in the midst of the beautiful scenery of the Broken Islands.”

“The camaraderie. It was sooo fun to be with such a great group of people and then to have such wonderful rowing conditions was just the makings for a fabulous trip.”

“The group. Lovely people. The last town we stayed in. On the beach relaxed. Very special. Could have spent more time there. Ruth and I found new friend in pumpkin the orange cat!”
