"And my search would have been in vain, but for the help that I had from a friend: Aragorn, the greatest traveller and huntsman of this age of the world. Together we sought for Gollum down the whole length of Wilderland, without hope, and without success."
Shadow of the Past
This is the quote that I think is being referred to (inaccurately, unless a citation can be referred to showing the other quote to be from JRRT).
Greatest traveller, not tracker, and not of all time but only of this particular period of time.
I would put forward Beleg as superior to Aragorn in such skills.
