Teamhike reviews

We have been traveling with the Teamhike team for several years now, always with 3–4 children aged 7–14. Coming up with and organizing an interesting, engaging trip for a group like that is no easy task, but they always manage it! The itinerary is packed and fascinating, tailored to the character of each destination: its cuisine, customs, culture, and more. There is precise timing, backup options in case of bad weather, and comfortable travel in specially prepared jeeps. The children forget about their gadgets and look around eagerly, hungry for new experiences, while the adults' phones practically overheat from the number of incredible photos of the places we visit! After every single trip, we spend another six months talking about it and asking, "Where are we going next?"))) Is that not the best? Lake Baikal, Kamchatka, Sakhalin, Murmansk, Altai, Mongolia... It seems there is nowhere these people cannot go! New itineraries are constantly being added. The Teamhike team are true professionals! From now on, we are traveling with them, and I recommend them to everyone!

I have personally known Teamhike since August 2023. Since then, they have guided us through magical adventures in Bashkiria, at Lake Baikal, in Karelia, and on a river rafting trip on the Oka River. The organization is always outstanding ???????????????????? If something goes wrong with Plan A, whether because of the weather or other circumstances, there is always a Plan B. They always take an individual approach, even on a large group hike ❤️‍???? For example, we do not eat pork, so they prepared chicken and beef for us))) They also handled many different logistics issues. Bashkiria changed everything in my life. Alexander is always there ❤️ Lake Baikal will stay with me for its ice breathing, its beauty, nights spent on the ice, and wonderful company. The kids were simply happy. River rafting on the Oka is the perfect adventure for athletes ????????‍♀️ We paddled almost 30 km and loved the emotions, speed, and thrill of finishing among the top five. We are already planning the mountains of Ingushetia, New Year's Murmansk, and of course Kamchatka. The team always has everything under control and always has everything planned ???????????????????? Thank you to Alexander and the entire team for an ocean of positive emotions, a boost of energy, endlessly beautiful photos, and incredibly happy memories from our trips ????????????

A wonderful trip with a great team. A packed itinerary and attentive, professional guides! Thank you for making us fall in love with Lake Baikal. In May, we took a wonderful family minitrip with the Teamhike team in Altai. The kids and adults loved it! I recommend Teamhike for your next great adventure!

Thank you to the Teamhike guides, and especially Alexander, for organizing an unforgettable trip to Lake Baikal. It's impossible to put all the emotions and beauty we saw into words! It was all possible thanks to the wonderful teamwork of our guides. Special thanks to Roman for the photos! The itinerary was packed; I doubt we could have planned it all ourselves. We got to see Lake Baikal's beauty from every angle, including from above. We went dog sledding, drifted across the ice in buggies, tried local food, even learned a traditional Buryat folk dance, and skated on the world's largest and most beautiful rink. We even spent the night in tents on the ice. There was so much to do and experience! Thank you, Teamhike, for helping us reset. I highly recommend this trip!

Hi everyone! I traveled with Teamhike on a winter trip to Lake Baikal in February 2025. It was so wonderful that I can't wait to go again: new places, positive energy, and unforgettable highlights! I loved absolutely everything. 1. Lake Baikal is truly a place of power. It captivates and amazes you, and there's more to it than you can take in. It reveals something different to everyone. 2. Alexander's team is first-rate. They were so involved and shared the adventure with us so fully that all we had to do was relax and enjoy ourselves. They took care of everything. Even the weather couldn't stop them. That's impressive! And if something doesn't go to plan, it only means one thing: there's an even bigger plan! (Teamhike's motto.) 3. The food was excellent, with an amazing range of flavors: buhler, buuzy, and yak-meat chebureki were incredible. You have to try them! If you haven't been to Lake Baikal yet, choose Teamhike. You won't regret it! I'm sure everyone will discover something special for themselves. Lake Baikal will definitely hold a special place in your heart, and the trip will bring you plenty of positive energy, excitement, and unforgettable highlights! Teamhike, I'm coming with you to explore new places. Kamchatka, wait for me. I'll be there soon!

We went on a winter trip to Lake Baikal with Teamhike. Everything was well organized and ran smoothly. We came away with so many memories! The ice on Lake Baikal is beautiful. Thank you for five days away from work, enjoying the outdoors.

I went on a winter trip to Lake Baikal with Teamhike. I really liked how everything was organized. The team was flexible and took our preferences into account at every destination.

The trip was brilliantly organized, with an interesting, action-packed itinerary and a wonderful team. Lake Baikal and Olkhon Island were magnificent, as always, in winter! The comfort level was high, making this a great option for both a family vacation and a solo trip. Many thanks for the trip! I'd be happy to travel to Kamchatka with such a warm, welcoming group.

I traveled with Teamhike to Murmansk and Lake Baikal. In Murmansk, we saw the Northern Lights, whales, and seals, and tried local delicacies. Everything was top-notch. Winter on Lake Baikal stayed with me for its incredible scenery and interesting itinerary. In October, we’re off to Mongolia, and we can’t wait. Alexander, thank you and your team for these unforgettable highlights!

August 20–28: a family tour to Kamchatka with Teamhike. A long-held dream came true for every member of the family. Our group consisted of two parents who were no longer very sporty, and our two adult children, who convinced my husband and me to make the trip and organized everything from A to Z. What can I say? The beauty is incredible. No photo or video can capture how it feels, even though our family has traveled extensively around the world and across the country. You should know that you’re going for the pristine nature, not a 5+ star all-inclusive hotel. I’m especially saying this to independent, mature travelers. It’s a chance to remember your student days, with hikes and evenings around campfires on the coast. Why? Believe me, you’re unlikely to find natural scenery like this anywhere else. Be ready for rough roads if you want to reach places where no human foot has ever trodden. In that respect, our family would especially like to thank Nastya, who drove us around all week in the Teamhike SUV. She was tactful, patient, and an excellent driver on difficult roads. We felt safe and at ease with her. That’s the verdict of the three drivers in our family, two of whom have 30 years of driving experience. On the plus side: a packed and varied itinerary for such a short trip. We had time to see and climb volcanoes, hike 7–8 km each way to waterfalls, visit incredibly beautiful lakes, discover hot springs and even try them out, take in the power of the OCEAN and its incredible views, feel like locals in beautiful coastal bays while staying in tents, and fish in the ocean. One important thing: it’s great that Alexander has his own vehicles for the group, which makes it possible to change the itinerary as Kamchatka’s very unpredictable weather shifts. The weather really puts you to the test. But if you’re visiting Kamchatka for more than just a quick photo op, believe me, Kamchatka will hear you and won’t keep testing you with rain, fog, and wind for long. Alexander listens to the group and adapts to different needs throughout the tour. On the downside: the issues were minor and related to individual people. In any case, our family is sure they were one-off situations. We raised them privately, and we’re confident they’ll be taken on board. The main thing is that we made our dream come true, and all four of us are equally HAPPY. Looking through all the photos and videos from the trip brings back the emotions we felt with every fiber of our being. Believe me, once you’re home, you’ll quickly forget the physical exertion, the pace, the lack of sleep, and the limited comforts, but the warm feelings and incredible highlights will stay with you. One last thing: listen carefully to your guides on the trail. Bears and foxes may cross your path (we saw them), and they’re the real deal. P.S. We can confirm all the reviews about how moving Lake Baikal is. Our family fell in love with it on our first visit to Olkhon Island 10 years ago, and that love has lasted every time we’ve returned. What’s more, during our Kamchatka tour, we found at least three natural features that reminded us of Olkhon Island. Which ones? We’ll leave that as a mystery for those who have yet to discover Lake Baikal and Kamchatka for themselves.

I’d like to thank the Teamhike crew for organizing our Lake Baikal tour and for the care and dedication they put into everything. Every detail was thought through. You’re the best! ???????? We came away with a million great memories of the excitement, activities, and delicious food. So my next dream is Altai and Sakhalin ???????? with you, of course! And I’ll definitely be back to Lake Baikal! ???? Thank you for everything! ????

A huge thank-you to the Teamhike crew. We spent a week with them on Lake Baikal in February 2024. What did we like? Absolutely everything: the staff, the food, the itinerary, dog sledding, the banya (Russian sauna), and swimming in the lake itself. We spent a night in a tent to hear the famous ice cracking. We traveled by 4x4 jeep, and we were happy with the accommodation, too. Alexander and his colleagues were involved and attentive throughout. The places and routes they chose felt interesting and full of nature’s energy. Thank you so much. See you on our next adventure, wherever it may be!
