The best adventure of your life awaits you.

What Our Adventurers Say

I was so glad that I joined the Wild Western USA adventure because the trip was very well tailored tour for Deaf people. The guides were excellent, informative, helpful, and worked very well with international Deaf people. Every day was so exciting and I got a real taste of what America is like!

Anna Dubbelt - Auckland, New Zealand

The trip around the South Island was phenomenal! When I met Rachel Soudakoff on the first day of the tour, she exuded friendliness, self-confidence, and passion for life. The tour was full-on and packed with jaw-dropping sights and activities. Going on an accessible adventure with eighteen other deaf signers was a priceless experience. You won’t be disappointed, so see you at Deaf Adventures!

Alexandrea Herman-Gill - Rangiora, New Zealand

I was so thrilled to be able to travel to the USA with a Deaf guide. The guides were wonderful and communicative and easy to understand. The whole trip was amazing and unforgettable. There was nothing that I would have changed!

Veronika Michailova - Vilinus, Lithuania

The tour was absolutely wonderful. 5 star organising, everything went so smoothly! I 100% recommend supporting this local business! Well worth it!

Kevin Stokes - Christchurch, New Zealand

We were very happy with both Rachels' service. Both of them are friendly and trustworthy. We had a good time as Rachel provided us with extensive knowledge about the places we visited. They showed me a lot of my own country that I had never seen before. The trip went smoothly without any issues. I was very happy with the experience I got and would recommend going with Deaf Adventures.

Peter & Carolyn Berry - Christchurch, New Zealand

Wow where do I start about Deaf Adventures? I could write a long essay. Both Rachels are awesome guides. They both made sure everyone was doing good and having fun. This was a lifetime experience that I'll never forget. I had so much fun meeting and making new friends and spending a full weekend using NZSL, laughing and joking around. I have learnt so much and I'm hungry for another trip already!

Emmie Bensley - Christchurch, New Zealand

We both highly recommend Deaf Adventures. Both guides have strong communication skills, enthusiasm, punctuality, and a great sense of direction. As Rachel is passionate about travel, we feel lucky to have her as our guide as the tour was well organized and filled with wonderful sights.
