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.

A fantastic trekking/climbing holiday
Mount Toubkal in Winter

A fantastic trip in all ways. Seamless organization. Our guides, Hussein and Omar, were fantastic. Accommodation and food were top notch. A great mountain experience as well. Great conditions, fantastic views. Altogether fantastic.

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!

A well organised holiday.
Walking Undiscovered Tenerife and Pico Teide
An enjoyable holiday organised by Cao and Aaron. The accomodation arranged was comfortable and meals very good. The trip notes for the ascent of Mount Teide were inaccurate and need revision. The notes for the last walk did not match the GPS trail. The meal we carried up to the Teide refuge was filling and similar to meals taken up by other guests. Only a kettle and small microwave oven are available for guest use as far as I could see. With hindsight I might have taken a dehydrated meal with me but the meal provided was ok. The breakfast and lunch on Teide were fine. I enjoyed the holiday, meeting Cao, Aaron and the rest of the group everyone got on well. Please send Cao some more KE tee shirts ( medium) he's only got one! JSE

Awesome Mountain Biking in Morocco
Private Dunmore - Morocco - Ride the Kasbah

An absolutely brilliant mountain biking trip - unbelievable things to see, great and at times tough mountain biking, excellent guide and organisation, good food, nice hotels and wonderful weather. It is pretty tough, especially on the first day with 1800m climbing over 8 hours off road, some of which pretty technical. Definitely highly recommended

Hiking the Andes in style.
Luxury Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu

For the committed hiker this is the ONLY way to experience Machu Picchu. The fantastic lodges and the professionally trained staff made this an adventure never to forget. If anybody is on the fence my suggestion is pull the trigger sooner than later. Enough said.

Fantastic holiday winter walking in Morocco
Mount Toubkal in Winter

Mount Toubkal was a tough challenge, we had high winds on our summit attempt but we all made it! Both Hussein & Omar were brilliant guides; we especially appreciated their advice regarding our crampons and ice axe as this was our first time using them. The food for us as vegetarians was also excellent. We had a brilliant holiday in Morocco, with a great bunch of interesting people and the trekking scenery was breathtaking. One not to be missed!

The Wild Blue
Walking on Secret Sardinia
Eastern Sardinia is truly stunning, in particular the rugged coastline of the Selvaggio Blu (‘wild blue’) south of the Golfo di Orosei. This adventure organised by KE makes the most of the area's natural beauty, combining hikes through remote valleys, up mountain sides and along quiet beaches. There are trails that overlook secluded coves with crystal clear waters that offer the chance for swimming or further exploring among the caves. In addition to the scheduled trip to Cala Luna, our resourceful guide also planned a trip out to Cala Goloritze for us on the free day - what a glorious setting, a sandy white beach tucked into the sheer cliffside! We arrived by small raft at dawn and climbed up above the cliffs for perfect views, and later in the day another opportunity for a swim. Other highlights included the trek out to the magnificent Gorroppu gorge and tour of an ancient Nuraghe site hidden away in a mountain hollow. On the last day, we hiked up to the highest peak in the Supramonte range for a rewarding panorama of all the places we had visited throughout the week. Though the days were full, there was still plenty of time to soak up the relaxing atmosphere of the traditional town of Dorgali and do a little shopping for local craftwork. In our case, we had a spare day at the end during which we took a boat cruise of the beautiful Maddalena archipelago. Our guide Marta took great care to consider all the needs of the group and to plan the itinerary for each day. I think the quality of the guides which KE partners with really make the difference.

A brilliant tick off the old bucket list!
Jordan's Wadi Rum and Petra
My wife and I had always wanted to see Petra, and it turned out upon discussion with our sons that they wanted to do so as well. Thus, we were able to schedule a family holiday to check it off the bucket list. We wanted a trek as well - we're not ready to settle for bus tours. The combination of Petra with Wadi Rum fit our calendars, so that's what we signed up for. Petra was stunning and well worth the visit. Hiking Jebel Haroun and then returning to the carved sandstone buildings gav e us a chance to see them in a better light (literally, better light in the late afternoon). Our only disappointment with Petra was how crowded it was; it was nice to get away from the crowds for the camping and peak hiking portion of the Petra segment. Wadi Rum was much more than we'd expected. The silence, the vistas, the stars at night. . .what an experience! The only thing we'd have changed would have been to pack a little warmer for our December visit as it got very cold in the evenings. Our leader and crew took excellent care of us, including delivering a bag (that had been misplaced by Royal Jordanian airlines and reached Amman several days after we did) all the way out to our remote camp site in the desert.

Our most memorable well managed 60th birthday adventure - with basic elements!
The Ultimate Everest Trek
It was my 60th birthday year and this was the highlight. It was almost worth it just for the range of training walks we did together! Then we were off! From the amusing ridiculousness of Kathmandu domestic terminal onwards through landing at Lukla, prayer flags and wheels, yaks, stunning scenery, excellent Sherpa's led serenely and confidently by Phurbar, swaying bridges, energy giving plentiful boring food, woods, mountains, Everest, glaciers, passes, helicopter rescues (not our group), mi nor altitude sickness, endless stunning high peaks around us, the Sherpa memorials and the amazing difficulty of doing anything at over 5,000 m, this was the most memorable holiday we could have done. Sue found the toilets unimaginably disgusting and even from a blokes point of view they weren't good. Overall, we can't stop talking about it and we were pleased to have been in a group of 8 different and interesting personalities, 3 of us being 60 in 2016. Thanks KE, it probably couldn't have been better. Mike and Sue
