An amazing experience with an even more amazing guide - Words cannot describe what an amazing experience it was to go through the survival 2-day course with William.
A huge amount of knowledge and skills was shared from William with us, it was great fun to be at a group with people with different backgrounds, learning all together and enjoying each other company.
William was incredibly good to help us understand the basics of survival, how to prioritize things, how to actually understand, plan and actually do the 4 basic pillars of survival (shelter, fire, food, water) and had a great way to share stories and experiences from his amazing life and adventures.
I definitely recommend the experience for everyone who wants to try something different, learn a LOT of useful things about survival, experience nature and get some time to be with his/her own thoughts. All of these, with the amazing energy of William and the possibility to be under a star-filled sky in the middle of nowhere in pitch black around you. What else can you ask for?
And as William said, "Don't try, do".

Survival with a little bit of comfort - An all together exciting weekend. Learning mixed with great laughs with passionate guide William. I was worried there would only be macho men participating but found myself enjoying the weekend with a lovely group of people looking for new experiences. Wasn’t as tough as I had imagined.

2 day survival adventure - This trip really exceeded my expectations! It was only 2 days but it made an impact!
William was amazing, so much knowledge and patience. As well as just being an all round top guy with an amazing story!

Memorable Experience - The two-day survival course was a very special experience. My mother and I learned how to use a compass, build a fire, forage, make a shelter (behind us in the photo 😄) and much more. Although we were beginners, William made us feel comfortable, gave us confidence in ourselves and deepened our curiosity. What’s more, he got us thinking like a survivalist about potential scenarios and encourged us to use our minds in a completely new way. The organisation and surroundings were also excellent. Thank you—we’ll never forget it and hope to be back.

Knowledge is empowering. It was truly a life changing event - The course opened my senses to how, complex, wonderful and plentiful the outdoors is.
I was amazed by the amount of information and time to practice that was effectively conveyed in such a short amount of time. William the guide was impressively knowledgeable and passionate about nature and its craft, taught me the core skills of survival - shelter, water, fire, and food which has made me a bit more competent in taking care of my survival needs.
After this course one will see the outdoors with new eyes – such as which plants you can eat and what trees can be turned into a fire kit while always keeping a deep and respectful relationship with nature.
If you are ready to transform your experience with the outdoors, do it with True Nature Sweden
