Unforgettable journey through magical , ever changing landscapes
Patagonia - The Classic Paine Circuit
The Patagonia Paine circuit proved to be a richly rewarding , varied trekking experience full of interest and surprises. Our group did the 'o' circuit of the massif ,tackling the more remote northern arc before joining the 'w' southern route back to the start at the well appointed , extremely comfortable and innovative Eco Camp. The trekking was well graded and paced with a mixture of challenging and easier days. It would be a good idea for anyone interested in this trip to i nvest in a field guide and a good pair of Bins as there's such a wealth of animals, birds, flora and geological/geographic wonders to appreciate. In general we were blessed with more benign weather than anticipated, sparing us from the notorious Patagonian wind and rain. However conditions are very changeable and all trekkers benefit from a judicious use of a good layering system. You may really need to go from one layer to four in the space of half an hour! Danny , Our lead Guide on this trip, ably assisted by Francisco was absolutely outstanding, perhaps the best I've experienced in over a dozen treks worldwide. His knowledge , empathy and good humour enriched the whole experience. The transfers, porterage ,camps and hotels all worked seamlessly and we were fabulously nourished throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend this trip to adventurous trekkers.

Another great adventure weekend with KE
Mount Teide Weekend - Tenerife

This is a great addition to KE's list of weekend adventures. Not as tough as the others so a great starter for anyone looking to give one of these trips a try. Cal the guide paced this perfectly considering the variation in experience of the group members. Fantastic food in the towns. The ascent was non-technical but still a challenge due to the altitude and the heat

Great Snowshoeing in a region new to me.
Queyras Snowshoe Winter Paradise

An excellent week of snowshoeing in the Queyras led by IML Emma Jack. Hotel Yak Avenir provided good accommodation with excellent food. With not a lot of snow at lower levels Emma had to find higher North facing slopes & cols to snowshoe to/on which she always managed to achieve. Indeed, she managed to exceed expectations with some memorable days in remote valleys with no one else in sight...brilliant!!!

scenic and challenging with great guide, assistant guide, and colleagues
Patagonia - The Classic Paine Circuit

The guide knew the environment extremely well, and kept us informed about the particulars of flora and fauna. They were concerned for our comfort and safety and gave great information and advice to make our trip pleasant. They kept us informed on the trip and were well organized to keep us on time from day to day. The camps were comfortable and the food was great.

An excellent adventure
Patagonia - The Classic Paine Circuit
This was a well organised trip controlled by a friendly local team. The guides, Danny and Francisco, were enthusiastic in sharing their knowledge of the history, geography and biodiversity of the area - although Francisco does need to work on his whistling and flute playing. The views were breathtaking and often unexpected, and the night skies were incredible. The first day of the trek is demanding as is the descent from the John Garner pass, but none of the group struggled and the route did not exceed 4000 ft altitude. The food was excellent as was the support by the porters and cooks. We were told that we were lucky with the weather conditions so that was just the icing on the cake (but we still saw all four seasons!). This is my first trip to South America and would not hesitate to recommend this trek to others.

Brilliant safari!
Botswana Wildside Lodge Safari

An excellent first time experience on a safari. One of the highlights is the Okavango delta two nights camping in the bush. Saw four of the five big animals. Accommodatiion excellent. Food prepared by the guides varied and good. Only downside was the long drive from Johannesburg (2x7hr days) but we knew this.

A Brilliant Trek
Mount Meru and Kilimanjaro Summit Ascents
The trip was amazing, the acclimatization at Meru certainly helps your chances of getting up at kili summit and more importantly makes it a lot more enjoyable. Onex and most of his assistant guides were really well trained and knew how to make the trek more informative and enjoyable. Some of the facts i wish i knew before i did the trek - 1. On the way to kili - stop at karibu supermarket at panone petrol station (it is right next to where ke adventure bus stops - has a much bigger supply of wha t you might need) 2. Summit time for both meru and kili - you will have limited time at both peaks, so pace your speed accordingly and coordinate well before in advance with your walk leader. 3. It is more of a handheld walk at kili than meru - for those reasons you might enjoy meru more. 4. Tips are broken down into two parts - 1st at end of Meru and 2nd at end of kili, so plan accordingly. Hope you have an amazing trek

A chance to do the impossible!!
Mount Meru and Kilimanjaro Summit Ascents
On January 2017 I took on the challenge of summiting both Mt Meru and Kilimanjaro. Not small feat by anyone, but more for me having disability it defiantly had the mission impossible theme tune running though my head. When I made initial contact with KE, one of their staff who had been on trek phoned me, getting to know me and maybe my fears about my suitability of the trip. In response I and the group gained an extra amazing guide with an added bonus for his liking of cheesy music. Mount Meru w as fantastic mountain with rugged landscape and green pastures which homes buffalo, Girraffes and Baboons. It's not just an acclimatisation trek for Kiliimanjaro but a perfect way to start a trekking holiday and a real hidden gem. Kilimanjaro is largest mountain in Africa and you trek through multiple vegetation zones. The experience of Meru will more than stand you in good stead for final summit accent along with good music and expert guides. As a person with a physical disability I couldn't have achieved what many seen as impossible without KE, their on ground tour company, guides and porters. Fantastic trip

Amazing scenery like nothing we had seen before
Spires and Ice - Trekking Patagonia
We took this holiday In jan 2017. It went like clockwork with the guides shuffling the timetable when needed. All three guides were very knowledgable about the area, trails, geology, plants, animals - real walking encyclopedieas. Rod in particular, our lead guide (there were 12 trekkers) did a fabulous job to make sure we had a good time. Eco-Camp was an amazing camp with the most comfortable holiday beds ever and marvellous food. The food at Paine Grande is so grim you should take chocolate or be ready to feast on pot noodles from the lodge shop. Some of the treks were long days (11 hours) but the scenery was always worth it. We never went that high and the trails are easy walking with a bit of a scramble at times. The weather is so changeable one lodge had a sign up with advice not to bother to ask 'dont ask, this is patagonia!' we had one day of drizzle and plenty of bright sunshine - never that hot, but the sun really burns so take factor 50. But the wind! at times it can stop you in your tracks, even in the towns. We ate a lot of steak and a river of Merlot wine which is available at every stop. This was our 8th KE trek and we have already booked another.

A wonderful journey
Edge of the Sahara Trek
I've travelled with KE on many occasions before, but always to the mountains. This was going to be a completely new experience! I must say that the trek was even better than I expected. Hassan worked hard to make sure that all of our group had a great experience, and was an engaging and informative leader at all times - we all really enjoyed his company. The crew, including our chef Mohammed, were also great fun and did everything to make sure we enjoyed our time in the desert. The desert l andscape itself, once you get tuned into to it, is remarkably varied, and changes before your eyes as the sun climbs and sinks. The stars at night are unforgettable too. I would say that if you are thinking about doing this one, just take the plunge, book and go - it's a great journey and different every day - and if Hassan is your guide, you will learn a lot about Morocco along the way!

Fantastic adventure
Helme - Guatemala Mountain Bike
This was an amazing trip with great guides, great riding and mostly fantastic accommodation. The weather was perfect bright blue days until we had a few spots of rain as we were driving back to Antigua. I wish they had missed out the night when we stayed at Huehuetenango as this hotel was horrible and the coffee at breakfast the next day was undrinkable. I would also have preferred a different place than the horse finca on our third night. The food there was poor and the showers were poor, cold and the water didn't drain away. Having said that the rest of the accommodation was very varied, interesting, beautiful contributing the overall amazing experience.

An excellent way to start the year
Edge of the Sahara Trek

The organisation; guide; food (including preparation) and company was all excellent. The week was so interesting and enjoyable that it felt I'd been away for a month.

An amazing adventure in a wonderful country with friendly people
Mount Toubkal in Winter
This was my first trip with KE and I must say how impressed I was with the organisation of the whole trip. This is truly a great experience if you like snow, mountain's and a challenge. Marrakech is an amazing place with friendly people and feels quite safe for single travellers. As a veggie I thought the food was great and the group made the whole trip even more enjoyable. Hussein and Omar the guides are just brilliant nice honest people that are helpful and have time for any concerns you may have no matter how small it may seem. You need to be quite fit to make the summit and it is very cold at the mountain refuge so thermal layers are a must. I would highly recommend taking ski Google's as on the way down to the lower refuge we had a snow blizzard to contend with and goggles are not on the kit list, other than that I can't wait for my next adventure with KE.

Beautiful snowy ascent.
Mount Toubkal in Winter

This is a great holiday with lots of variety and all at a good pace. The mountain climbs were an excellent introduction to winter climbing at 'mid level' altitude. We were lucky to have really stunning views from the summit of Toubkal. Be prepared for extremely cold weather: we had minus 20 degrees Celsius plus windchill, so snow goggles and full face cover were essential!
