WHERE ACE CAMPS HAVE TRAVELED IN THE PAST
WHO ACE CAMPS HAVE TRAVELLED WITH

Hear from Our Past Guests

  • What an amazing 10 days!!! Truly life changing...Thank you, thank you, thank you

    - Sarah H.

  • Marrakesh! I just enjoyed one week in this extraordinary city with Ace Camps Travel and the outrageously talented fiber artist Maryanne Moodie whose weaving workshop in Marrakesh was the perfect vehicle to enlighten and inspire me to see the city with an enhanced appreciation of color, texture, and traditional craft. I highly recommend the Ace Camp Travel experience- a supported and curated weeklong adventure with a workshop focus - as a way to deep dive into a cultural travel experience. Many thanks to the Ace Camp travel team. All details small and large were executed with exceptional precision and grace.

    - Alexandra B.

  • This, my first ACE Camp, surpassed all expectations. I was delighted and engaged with all of the programming.

    - Cris J.

  • My stay in Oaxaca was amazing. It was the perfect balance of activities and exploration. Thank you for being so gracious, informed, flexible, and fun!

    - Gail H.

  • I wanted to, again, thank you for the trip & tour to Mexico City. As a totally inexperienced traveller you extended to me every courtesy, insuring that I had a terrific time. It is easy to understand why so many of the women are repeat members of your tours. - Trish S.

    - Trish S.

  • Thank-you so much for arranging such a wonderful experience, in a beautiful location, with amazing teacher's and helpful hosts! You are surely making a difference in the lives of many women, including myself. I felt so good after this trip, more than any other workshop or trip I have taken, ever! I've been to Greece, London, etc, but this trip was just *magical*! I thank you from the bottom of my heart and will forever remember this journey and hope to one day join in again on another Ace Camp's life-changing adventure!

    - Lia K.

  • It was simply the best trip of my life. It was a coming together of like minded women in a perfect setting and it was truly magical.

    - Karen D.

  • Just want you to know that the week spent in the Baja with your ACE Camp was truly one of the best weeks of my life! So much fun, so incredibly organized, fabulous food and perfect comfort in all the places we stayed. You worked so hard yet never stressed , always upbeat and fun! It was also a great mix of interesting activity and time to relax. I also believe that the friendships I made in that week will last a life time. The decision I made to go on that trip was the best one I made all year!

    Marty R.

  • THANK YOU for an amazing, amazing experience. It was so wonderful in every way

    - Anna H.

  • Ace Camp took me to a part of the world I never would have visited, and allowed me to learn from an artist I never would have dreamed of meeting otherwise. A fantastic concept, exquisitely executed by all parties involved. I was enamored by our accommodations, satiated by the specially prepared meals, and thoroughly charmed by our gifted instructor. This was my first experience with ACE Camps but I'm sure it won't be my last.

    - Irene S.

  • I can’t believe how much I loved the trip with Ace Camps to Swaziland. I felt so *myself* on this trip, and expanded in the best way. Thank you so so much for actually bringing this to life.

    - Karen P.

  • My week in Iceland with Angela, and the amazing group she gathered, was absolutely the highlight of my year. And that's saying something since I already travel for a living! The organization was flawless, the food fabulous and the feeling sublime. I learned a lot, and had a great balance of relaxing and adventure. And, honestly, I haven't laughed so much in, well, forever. I would absolutely recommend an ACE Adventure - you won't regret it! I can't wait for my next opportunity to join another!

    - Martina C.
