Amazing trek to Poon Hill and Annapurna Base Camp

Annapurna Sanctuary and Poon Hill Trek

Just got back from my trek in Nepal. I had an amazing time from start to finish. The organisation was first class from the hotels in Kathmandu and Pokhara, the transportation and trek itself. Our guide, JB and assistant Prym were fantastic and together with our three Porters looked after us all very well. I would have no hesitation in using KE again.

Always fantastic

The Ultimate Everest Trek

Been with KE 3 times now, even though I've used a lot of other companies KE is far the best, in every way, from booking to communicating to the trips! I think the best guide I've ever had, and I think I must have done over 25 trips!! So I think high praise. Very good value for money. Everything was spot on.. so so happy! I could have turned around and done it again

I loved it, it was an amazing experience!

Everest Base Camp Trek

This was an amazing trip, well organised and supervised from the moment I met our guide, Phurba in Kathmandu. Phurba Sherpa and his team were amazing and really took the hassle of the trip.

The whole trip itinerary was spot on

Jordan's Wadi Rum and Petra

Charming staff always at the end of the phone to answer questions on the planning stage. Good trip descriptions on web site. Excellent staff on the ground at all stages of the trip. Great advice on what to take etc. I also admire the ethos of the company.

Guide Murad is such a special find. He is extremely knowledgable and friendly and professional - the fact he enjoys his job and the activities comes over well. He was helpful and safety conscious and had a wonderful banter and re lationship with Salam. I consider myself lucky to have had him as our guide.

Well organised

La Gomera - Jewel of the Canaries

Very well organised with very good guides and places we wouldn't think of going to. Really interesting and varied walking and fascinating insights into local life from Ene (guide). Really enjoyed it with great company and a real variety of landscapes.

Excellent customer service from booking in the UK and including the actual holiday in Jordan. The tour guides were exceptional and treated everybody equally and with boundless energy, humour and friendship.

Beautiful scenery, and tough mountain hiking

Walking Holiday on the Captivating Cape Verde Islands

The Cape Verde Islands are wonderful, with amazing scenery, friendly people, and a relaxed way of life. Their moto is "no stress".
The hiking was challenging, with steep ascents and descents, and some rocky mountain paths. The ascent to the top of the volcano is not for those afraid of heights, or a bit of rock climbing. Most of the walks our group would classify as a bit more than moderate, so be warned. But my wife and I had a wonderful experience and we are very glad we went.

Ultimate everest trek

The Ultimate Everest Trek

Just back from this trip 21 days in nepal. Everything about this trip was amazing, the hotel in Kathmandu was fantastic the staff were so friendly and couldn't do enough for us. The food and facilities were first class.
Pasang the guide was absolutely fantastic in every way from start to finish. The trek is incredible but not for the faint hearted. Climbing to the viewpoint on gokyo ri and the chola pass took the breath away, literally but boy was it woth it for the amazing panorami c views. Nepal is amazing and I can't wait to go.back.

Machu Pichu in the rainy season

Inca Trail to Machu Picchu

We arrived in Cusco on the 2nd of March, preparing ourselves for the 4-day walk to Machu Pichu via the Inca Trail. Unfortunately, due to the heavy rain there had been a landslide that closed the trail. New plans were required. Our guide, Juan Jincho Aragon, modified our holiday accordingly. We spent 4 days based in Ollantaytambo, each day undergoing a trip/walk to visit different Inca sites, usually walking along other Inca Trails. The experience was extremely rewarding. We were often the only t ourists visiting these places, creating a more bespoke and authentic feel. Juan's phenomenal experience of Inca history, language and customs was immensely educational and his charisma and humour were hugely entertaining. What started as a potential disaster on arrival, when learning of the landslade and the rapid change of plans, became a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that left us as huge fans of Peru and its impressive scenery and history. KE should ensure that they keep utilising dedicated, well-informed people like Juan to provide a real 'edge' in the experience provided.

Macchu Picchu amazing trip.

Inca Trail to Machu Picchu

Even though the Inca Trail was closed because of landslides we had the most amazing time.. Our guide Germain took us on some fantastic trails and we even got to see a village festival and try their homemade booze and chicken soup. Many of the villagers were porters for the trail and we're laid off. Accommodation was great and we ate amazing food. Having a small group( 3 of us) made it easier to organise. The trip on the train to Macchu Picchu was very enjoyable and the journey up to the sit e through the clouds the next day was surreal. An amazing site as the cloud lifted. A dream holiday which will be in my heart forever.

UN POQUITO MAS!

Spires and Ice - Trekking Patagonia

I do not have sufficient words to describe how wonderful, how fabulous, how stunning this trip was. My expectations were already high; said expectations were exceeded. Patagonia is literally of this world; it is figuratively out of this world.
No better way to see Patagonia than with KE. Perfectly planned and wonderfully led by Luis, with the more than able assistance of the Chilean guides Yasser and Juan. Highlights for me included: the walk to the Torres del Paine - perfectly timed to beat the hordes; lunchtime at Cerro Torre; the view of the Cuernos del Paine from the hotel in Serrano; the evening in the estancia. So many more. I was also lucky enough to be part of a great group of like-minded people.
A final word about our Argentinian guide Luis: on day one I managed to burn my nose (watch out for that wind!) and not only did he equip me with some magic healing ointment, but he also fashioned a bespoke nose-protector for me! And on the day I was unwell and unable to participate, he ensured that both the hotel and the local operator was aware of my situation. Que hombre!

Enjoyable trip

High Level Pyrenees Snowshoe Holiday

An enjoyable trip and I recommend it. Anna was a great guide and led the group very well. The difficulty of the walking would suit an experienced UK hillwalker, but there's no need to be super fit. Fortunately all the group had similar fitness levels, which always helps. There was plenty of snow higher up on the trek to the hut, although we sometimes used walking crampons rather than showshoes, which didn't reduce our enjoyment. There wasn't much snow on the 1st two days, but we a ll still enjoyed them, and we found enough snow to do the essential avalanche training. The itinerary was well designed, with the 1st two days being good preparation for the trek to the hut, which was in a stunning location.

An interesting and varied trip to a relatively unknown destination

Nicaragua Lakes and Volcanoes

The trip was a good mix of walking / hiking, river boat journeys, rainforest walks, volcano walks, amazing birds, insects and other wildlife, some sightseeing and visits to churches, museums and art gallery, some free time, some optional activities - all led by local leader and guide JC (Juan Carlos Mendoza) who was very knowledgeable about the country, its people (who were all very friendly and helpful), economy, history etc and excellent knowledge about the birds, monkeys, cayman and other wil dlife, and very willing to flex arrangements to meet the group's wishes. Our driver for the trip Alfonso was careful and considerate throughout. The extra local guides that we used on some of the walks were all excellent, again helpful and full of information. Our weather was hot, sunny, sometimes humid (thankfully no rain) and perfectly OK for the itinerary. Hotels varied as one would expect but were all absolutely OK, food likewise, there are some excellent restaurants in Granada and Leon. If the itinerary appeals then go for it, you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic Finland

Finland Wilderness Snowshoe Adventure

I've done so many trips with KE over the years I've lost count and this was the first time I've ever done a trip again. Fantastic Finland the wilderness and nature are fantastic.

Lovely cabin, clean, great sauna and ice hole in the lake. Quiet with good communal facilities and great food. Anton was a great trip leader, obviously been a guide for many years and this shone through he was never flustered and always full of confidence.

Great Way to Get Acquainted With Volcanoes

Guatemala's Magnificent Seven

Summit views and time in town were highlights of the trip. Of the seven volcanoes ascended, the last three, Tajumulco, Santa Maria, and Acatenago (overlooking Fuego) offer the best eye candy, and eruptions might be seen from the last two. Our group witnessed a small eruption on the flanks of Santa Maria. Fuego, however, was just releasing steam during our visit.
