Kilimanjaro Rongai Route
Kilimanjaro Rongai Route
Highly recommend the Rongai Route over 6 nights/7 days. We travelled in October (early) and we hardly met another group climbing until we reached Base Camp. The weather was good until the morning we began the final summit climb, when we had snow, winds and minus 16 degrees. However, this did not deter us and 10 of our 13 group reached the summit. I had never climbed at this altitude (5895 metres ) before and I only got a mild headache and a little nausea on the summit climb, however, others suff ered earlier. I do think drinking plenty of water helps as well having the extra day to acclimatise, I also took diamox. We had a team of 47 porters/guides led by Emmanuel. The whole team where fantastic and couldn’t have looked after us any better. I can highly recommend KE Travel as the whole holiday ran smoothly and all the staff from the KE office to the team leading the trek in Tanzania were helpful and professional. Can’t wait to book my next holiday.

Once again: KE Rocks
High Pastures of the Picos
What more can you ask for? The hospitable Spain, spectacular vistas, long but rewarding hikes, and a wonderful guide. Accommodations on this trip were very comfortable, with excellent meals every day. The local wine did not disappoint. Our guide Rosana couldn't have been more supportive, knowledgeable, and good-natured. I would gladly trek with her again. This is not an easy holiday, with some long days and long hikes featuring significant elevation gains. But the scenery rewards the effort . This was my third KE trip and each has been a five star experience. A tip: we arrived a few days early, rented a car, and visited Rioja wineries on our way to San Sebastian, which was a great city to spend a few days (with first class restaurants for the foodies). On the way back to Bilbao to start the trek we stopped at Guernica and San Juan de Gaztelugatxe. Great itinerary; I felt like we had a mini-vacation before we had even started our hike. Enjoy!

Beautiful Macedonia
Tastes and Trails of North Macedonia

This was my first trip with KE Adventure, and I was delighted with the week in Macedonia. Danko, our tour leader, was highly competent and responsible, choosing just the right hikes for the weather conditions. The mountains were glorious - much more so than I'd expected. And what can I say about the food?! Always plentiful, and always delicious. The people we encountered were consistently welcoming and generous. I would highly recommend this trip.

Cultural Granada to great walk and white villages
Walking in Las Alpujarras
Lovely relaxing trip visiting areas of Andalusia we haven't been to. Granada was excellent but recommend adding at least a day to trip for this, as by time arrive and need to leave for bus transfers there is limited time to see the sites. KE adventure booked the extra night in hotel for us. The walks were interesting and different to those we see in UK, giving insight into very different way of living. Guide notes clear, though the .gpx files were helpful, when not sure which sharp turn or track to ignore between waypoints. Each of villages we stayed in was very different, but be warned that many of restaurants weren't open in evening. This may have been time of year (Oct), but even in busy Pampaneira at the weekend, many were closed in evening. We still enjoyed the food we had each day. We travelled on public buses, which were prompt and reliable, and easy to book online. We also didn't buy any bottled water, drinking safely from local fuentes. Overall, this was a lovely experience, which we would recommend.

A new European experience
Walking the Albanian Alps

Our Albanian leader Erenik was so helpful and caring. He told us a lot about his country. Close contact with the Albanian people who were so friendly. We seemed to be immersed in a relatively new destination . It's history and culture were fascinating.

A little bit of Europe in the Indian Ocean
Reunion Island Paradise
Whilst getting there is a long haul from the UK via Mauritius, the final destination makes the travelling worth it. We arrived to see whales breaching in the sea near the airport runway and then met our guide Claire at the hotel. Claire is a local who knows the island and is an excellent leader for this trip. Whilst the distances on each day do not look on paper too long they are surprisingly hilly and in Claire's words 'efficient'. The accommodation is lovely in both hotels and r efuges and the early morning ascent to get the sunrise on the highest point of the Indian Ocean on Piton des Neiges is well worth the effort. A great trip all round. Advice - Pack light for the trekking phases as you will be carrying it, walking poles are well worth brining if you use them as the paths are very stoney and uneven in places.

Superb holiday to the summit of Madeira. I would recommend this trip to anyone.
Levada Trails and Peaks of Madeira

Having travelled with KE many times i can honestly say this was up there as one of the best. A great mix of walking, climbing and being immersed in the culture of this wonderful island. Our guide Roberto was full of knowledge and enthusiasm whilst caring for our safety too. It was great to be in a group that gelled so well from day one we all became good friends by the end of the trip. The food, hotels and sea front bars were excellent. Overall a brilliant holiday!

Fantastic experience on my first trip to India.
Stok Kangri Climb
It was a great trip and most of the group reached the summit - my first 6000m peak and, by chance, it was on my 60th birthday! The crew did a great job and even made and decorated a cake for my birthday. The acclimatisation worked well in Leh and during the trek so the summit day, though tough, was manageable. The weather was mixed, with rain or snow some days, so go prepared..... There's quite a lot of free time in Leh before and after the trek - it's a pleasant place but not all that much to see, so go prepared for that too - book, cards etc. We played a lot of cards on out trip!

A holiday without negatives.
Mountain Trails of Lebanon
Not having been to Lebanon for twenty years I was very interested in seeing how this very interesting country would look after all that has happened there in the meantime. I wasn't disappointed in any respect. The walking was sometimes a little challenging but doable by all in the group. The "days off" were filled with visits to many historical and some modern aspects of Lebanon. Our guide Caroll and the driver Adib were an excellent team that were friendly, competent, with good l ocal knowledge and initiative when they needed to use it. In the eight days we stayed in seven different locations thereby getting a very varied and always positive impression of the country. I couldn't but recommend booking this trip if you are interested walking and life in ancient and or Modern Lebanon.

TWO WEEKS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE
Mountain Trails of Lebanon
Sometimes a short holiday is so absorbing that you come back feel that it has lasted much longer than it actually did. And that's how I feel about this excellent trip to the Lebanon. This was more than a walking holiday, with some exceptional sightseeing to be had. I particularly enjoyed the Roman temple complex at Baalbek and the ruins at Byblos. The walking itself was not that difficult in terms of the raw statistics of ascent and distance, but hot conditions made it feel a bit more chall enging. I wouldn't disagree with the grading, but I would recommend ensuring you are as fit as you can be before setting foot on the trails. As mentioned by Jay, it would be a good idea to bring some walking snacks (preferably not prone to melting!) to supplement the lunch food. The trip was well-organised and run, with our leader (Caroll) doing an excellent job of keeping us in line. It was unfortunate that we were unable to get to the highest point in Lebanon, but that was no-one's fault (except, of course, the Lebanese Army). Caroll did a brilliant job of coming up with a workable Plan B, which was topped off by driver Adib flourishing bottles of beer as we arrived back at the bus. Caroll was always alive to the needs and wants of the group, flexing the itinerary to incorporate the (excellent) National Museum in Beirut. He kept us supplied with baklava and bazarek biscuits on the bus, ensuring that spirits never flagged. Before travelling, I was slightly apprehensive about going to the Lebanon. But the people were very friendly and I felt entirely comfortable throughout the trip. Overall, this is an excellent trip to a destination which is only just now nudging itself on to the tourist trail and I would thoroughly recommend it.

All I expected and more.
Levada Trails and Peaks of Madeira

Second KE adventure and it did not disappoint. Some friends referred to Madeira being for 'Saga', but definitely not. Beautiful island, with amazing & tough walks. Guide Roberto, was knowledgeable, inspiring & fun to be with. Group of 10 gelled together well.
