“James took care of all the activities and the hotel I just took care of the flights, I certainly put him to the test and he did not disappoint. Yes we were on a stag doo but there was no need to slum it, James managed to book us into a beautiful 5 Start hotel in Lisbon Portugal we have a full on weekend Took off from Bristol airport at 7am Friday Morning arrived Lisbon 9.30am, Private transfer to meet us at the airport 10am, took us to the Hotel to drop the bags off, then onto our first activity Go-Cars at 11.30am for and hour and a half, these are great fun, i would recommend to anyone... unless you have a bad back (cobbled streets in places) we drove the go-cars to our next event "The Beer Bike" 1pm. All you can drink for 1 hour... but you have to work for your beer !! lol. we then had lunch at a local restaurant 2pm (not part of our booking) then back to the hotel for a swim in the hotel pool 4.30pm. met up in the one of the rooms with some locally purchased booze. in a cab at 9.30pm to meet our Bar Crawl Guide "Maria" for 10pm arranged by James free bar for an hour then on to a few more bars. then to top the night off VIP at K Urban Beach night club at 1.30am (again arranged by James) this place was out of this world (like being in Miami) with a free bottle of Vodka delivered to our table. The next day James had arranged a lovely private yacht to take us out for a 2 hour cruise with 2 complimentary bottles of wine and a 3 course meal at the hotel to chill us out before our flight home on the Sunday morning. back home with the kids by 2pm Sunday. Thank you James will be in contact for another lads holiday soon”

“Giving loads of information so we knew where, when and what we was doing. And what we had to take with. It made me a lot more relaxed before the event.”

“Everything from start to finish just set me at ease and they took control of everything down to every little detail. The stag , myself and the whole group honestly can't thank essentail adventure enough for a truly fantastic weekend away full of fun and laughter. Would 100% use again in the future.”

“Essential Adventure saved the stag do from the brink of disaster. I was made best man at very short notice with very little time to arrange an awesome weekend away for the stag and friends. I was struggling to arrange accommodation and activities for a reasonable price and figured I'd ask Essential Adventures what they could offer. I was so glad that I did! I was able to get accommodation for two nights, raft building and an evening in a comedy club with food all for around £150. This was far less than I was able to achieve on my own. The organisation was flawless and the weekend was a huge success. Thanks guys!”

“Activity not as advertised, poor communication and I was refused a refund for an appalling event. After weeks of going back and forth and being challenged on my version of events I was offered £10 back for each member of my party. This was pitiful but I didn't have the energy to argue with this company anymore. Overall a disorganized and unprofessional company.”

“Essential Adventure made a potentially tricky process of arranging a stag do for 26 people both easy and efficient. James was always available to help the process along and make everything as simple as possible. Highly recommended.”

“Everything was booked correctly and all the information we required for each day was all given in full. This really helped. Matt was the person i dealt with and i must admit he was perfect. His communication was good even after the event. I really do appreciate everything that this company did for my group. We cycled across Wales in 5 days including walking Snowden and Pen Y Fan. Thankyou Matt.”

“The booking and arrangements was all handled by James who was helpful from the start. It made everything so much easier for everyone to pay their own fees individually at their own time. The package we booked was brilliant and accomodation was nice, clean and in a lovely area. I would recommend the company to anyone else planning a hen do.”

“When requesting a call back it was the same day. Any questions that I had were answered the same day also. Polite and helpful throughout the while planning process. Will definitely recommend Essential Adventure, they take the stress away from planning everything separately. Hen do was a blast, escape rooms were fantastic and the hotel was lovely and well worth the money. Thank you!!”

“I did a lot of research about hosting a stag do and looked at various options but after speaking with Matt and James I found Essential Adventure to be the perfect fit for me. From the offset, they were friendly, easy to approach, available outside of normal office hours and willing to answer any questions. They took care of everything for me! The biggest problem I was worried about was the money but these guys sent up individual payments which can be monitored and see who's paid what and the best thing, I didn't have to worry about the money side. Their website was simple to use and gave fantastic information for the day. I like to plan everything so to have everything on one page was amazing! The weekend itself was perfect, well organised which allowed me to enjoy the events rather than worrying about the next thing. I would certainly recommend Essential Adventure to anyone. Both Matt and James were fantastic. If you're hosting a stag do, hen do or any similar event, give these guys a call as they wont disapoint you”
