Fantastic holiday, start to finish.
Morocco Family Desert Trek - Private Mendel

KE Adventure organised a great holiday for us. From being met at the airport to being dropped back again 13 days later we could not have asked for a better experience. Thanks to Omar, our trekking guide in the Sahara, and to all the KE Adventure team back in the UK. The problem you've left us with is to work out where next!!. Steven

A chilly Morocco but wonderful Christmas escape
Winter Sunshine Walking in the Jebel Sahro - Morocco
A great holiday. Almost a disaster for two of our small group who were delayed by fog at Heathrow, missed their connection, arrived a day late and their luggage even a day later. Full marks to the ground agent for enabling them to catch up, missing very little. The walking is excellent, the scenery very varied. Stunning views from the tops of the mountains we climbed. Ali, our cook was a Masterchef. The food was delicious, lots of fresh fruit and veg mainly sourced locally. Wonderful fresh bread baked daily over an open fire. The guide, Hassan was a delight; his English excellent and his breadth of knowledge about Morocco, its history and culture was staggering. Many a happy hour was spent learning about religion, the King, history of the country and the Berbers. The pace was leisurely with plenty of time to take in the views and take photos. The Muleteers were an efficient crew, transporting luggage and gear with care and setting up camp. Our lively little group were great company making it a really relaxing and enjoyable trek. Don't underestimate how cold it can be in December and take layers to cope. Warm gloves essential. Lots of wipes also necessary, as no washing water, except at one camp where there was a well and a kettle full of hot water enabled us ladies to commandeer the mess tent and have a good wash! Bliss! The toilet tent was a bit of a nightmare, rather restrictive in size with four large, often wobbly stones ringing a hole in the ground on which one teetered perilously and attempted, not very successfully to aim. It was enough to cause a sudden and severe bout of constipation in those of a nervous disposition. Marrakech is a bustling vibrant city. We had a super guide for a morning tour, essential in the maze of alleyways of the souk. The two Kasbahs we stayed in, at the beginning and end of the trek were incredible, such luxury! The group hotel in Marrakech was basic but clean and comfortable. All in all a great experience and highly recommended.

A great adventure, both in terms of outdoor pursuits and archaeology.
Guatemala's Magnificent Seven
The trip exceeded my expectations. I had concerns about food hygiene. The food was very good and when not camping we were brought to a different local restaurant for each meal. All were to a high standard. The hotels were clean and welcoming. I had concerns about security. There were armed police at Guatemala City airport and throughout Antigua city and tourist areas. I soon relaxed but the situation outside these areas could be different for the unwary. I had concerns about the local team leade rs. All three were excellent - enthusiastic and painstaking with fluent English. Guatemala has great potential for active tourists.

A great, challenging bike ride, rewarding and always interesting
Santiago de Compostela by Bike
This is a hugely enjoyable and rewarding trip, the best I've been on. It is also a real physical challenge - it is very tough but that adds to the rewards and there is the historical and cultural side as well. There are many great mountain biking days on this trip, some great descents including from Pyrenees and Cantabrian mountains and across the valleys of Galicia. The trails across the Meseta are flatter but then there is the challenge of the distance and heat, and you pass through so ma ny interesting places on these days. Our guides were very friendly, helpful and organised (and they knew one of the best restaurants in Santiago for a fantastic last meal). Hotels were good, my only minor disappointment being we stayed in large business hotels in Burgos and Leon - otherwise we were in smaller simpler hotels and ate in local restaurants which was much better to my mind. Thoroughly recommended, provided you are fit and determined. At first I was put off slightly by the "fat tyre" designation, like an idiot I initially assumed it meant "easy" but and so glad I went ahead.

A great trek despite significant flaws in the organisation
Mount Toubkal in Winter

Overall, I had a great holiday but I have been extremely disappointed that the itinerary of a mountain trip was not respected and that we did not climb the second 4000m summit. The leader did everything possible to go down in the valley a day before which meant I have been deprived from an other great day of trekking.

KE Adventure reply

Thank you for your review. We are pleased that you had a great trek to the summit of Toubkal and we are sorry that you were unable to make the optional ascent of Ouanoukrim. Although it was a majority decision of the group not to spend a third night at the refuge after the climb of Toubkal, we do understand your disappointment and have subsequently spoken to our guides about this.

Superb Himalayan trek off the beaten track
Beyond Kulu

Best organised trek I have had the pleasure of being on. Hats off to Rigzin. Well worth looking at from a scenic point of view if you have done a few treks in Nepal. Peaks might not be as high but scenery has a beauty of it's own. 2 great passes and stunning steep sided valleys.

An excellent short break
Mount Toubkal in Winter
I was after a short mountain break, relatively cheap, maybe somewhere a bit exotic, with snowy peaks and some altitude - the Winter Toubkal trip ticked all the boxes for me! And on top of that the group all got on really well, the weather was kind and the food was excellent! Don't underestimate the cold and spindrift though when the wind blows. You might want to consider taking climbing goggles as well as glacier glasses, and maybe a face mask or at least balaclava/buff. A highly recommende d trip!

An excellent trip to Thailand, and not a beach in sight
Thailand Bamboo and Buddhas Family Adventure
We went on a December 2016 trip and this proved to be excellent timing as the weather was a perfect 20-30 degrees all the time, and there were no mosquitoes. This is a great family trip, with lots to see and do. If I have any criticism it is that it was such a great trip I wish we could have had an extra couple of days built in to the itinerary to relax a bit more rather than always being on the go. Elephants were a great hit. Jungle accommodation is on the basic side of basic, though the food w as fantastic - as it was for the whole trip, you won't go hungry! Our Thai guide was excellent and couldn't have been more helpful. Take an eye mask for the overnight train (though our guide managed to persuade the guard to turn some of the lights out on our return journey).

Great, well organised trip in fascinating country
Oman Adventure Trekking

This trip was excellent. Every hiking day was quite different in some way, and each hike was stunning. The food was great, both during the camping and when we ate in restaurants, and our crew was friendly and helpful. It is important on this trip to be aware that it can be very hot for the hiking, and to come prepared for that. Bring shoes that can be worn for both walking and swimming for the optional wadi trip on the last day.

An action packed trip with wildlife, stunning coastal scenery and great walks
Cape Town and the Garden Route

A great trip. Every day we did something different from walking to zip wires to visiting caves and even riding ostriches and shark diving. The safari wildland was fantastic at both Addo Elephant Park and also at the private Scotia game reserve. We also so lots of sea life too! Our guides Bevan and Tish we excellent providing us with lots of information and also great food and hospitality.

A good holiday with an excellent group of participants and leaders
Red Hot Chile Trekkers - The Atacama Desert

I enjoyed the holiday, especially getting to the top of Licancabur, and although we were a large group everybody was fit and got on well. The walking was limited in scope by the (unsurprising) lack of water and I feel that the trip should be regarded as a collection of places visited rather than a genuine trekking holiday. For obvious reasons it is not an area suitable for continuous days of walking.

THE best trip so far
Patagonia - The Classic Paine Circuit
Trekking in Patagonia was very special. The weather conditions were very rough - rain, snow, strong winds, hail and a lot of mud on most days - but I guess this is what one should expect in Patagonia. We had a very strong group and a lot of fun - even when faced with these quite tough conditions. Our team leader and the whole crew were amazing. They really took care of us but got us everywhere safley. We all became like one big family and everybody really had a great time. I've done a lot o f trips with KE but this one felt very special. I can definitely recommend it... the landscape, the nature, the rough weather and what a great feeling having accomplished the whole circuit.

Beautiful Island
Walking Undiscovered Tenerife and Pico Teide
We started in the south of Tenerife in the village of Chio. Quaint homestay with good food (although breakfast was a bit basic). The first day was a walk down Masca gorge to the sea. Beautiful gorge but very slippy underfoot - care required. The 2 day hike up Pico Teide followed. Definitely a highlight. We did the 6 hour walk to the refuge on the first day and then a fairly sleepless overnight followed by a 5 am rise to hike to the summit for dawn. Great experience but wrap up well. Below zero o n the summit. Then to the north of the island for 2 nights in pretty La Laguna followed by 2 nights in Santa Cruz. Great walks in the Anaga peninsula down gorges to the sea. The guides Cao and Aaron were great with excellent restaurants used for evening meals. Highly recommended trip.
