Across the Julian Alps to Triglav
Spectacular 2nd day traversing ridge with stunning scenery. the landscape was varied and each day offered something new and interesting. Some huts were really nice with small bunk rooms for 2 to 4 people, running water and indoor toilets. a few huts were very basic with large bunk rooms for over 30 people, pit toilet and no running water. Guides, David and Katja, looked after the group very well and always clearly explained what to expect each day. Great group of fellow trekkers. The ascent of M t Triglav was a lot of fun with incredible expansive views at the top. I do not like heights, but loved the via ferrata climb on mt Triglav and always felt very safe and secure with the cables and harness.

Outstanding trip & great experience with safety-oriented guide
Dolomites Via Ferrata

This was an exciting and "full-on" Via Ferrata experience with magnificent scenery and enjoyable but challenging (for me) Via Ferrata. The food in the huts was unexpectedly excellent. A particular positive of this trip was the highly qualified and characterful French guide, Francois, who put group safety and the wellbeing of the party members at the absolute highest end of his priority.

An interesting alpine walk
Trekking the Ridges & Summits of Bulgaria

A mixture of day walks and one overnighter. Excellent accommodation and meals. Not overly strenuous but attractive country. Excellent English speaking guide

Gorgeous, Unique Trek
Classic Laugavegur Trail Trek
We're talking Lord of the Rings country here, with pristine green and white mountains and geothermal springs. This alone is enough to do the trek, which was of a moderate grade. Our guide, Marta, was well organized, easy-going and genuinely fun. Be prepared for crowded mountain huts where single travelers of the same sex are asked to share berths, bathrooms are outside and everyone helps with cooking and cleaning. Even in Reykjavik, the guest house involved a shared bathroom. I'm a goo d sport, but I'm subtracting one star for the price-service ratio. That said: do it! I'm a jaded trekker and the scenery is as beautiful and unique as anything else in the world...

Great guide and people
K2, Concordia and the Gondogoro La

I had a great trek with Ade, fellow trekkers and all the porter staff. My great disappointment was when Baltistan Tours produced an inflated invoice in US Dollars!!!! from the original agreed price of R40,000 and charged me $725 (R76,125) for my journey to K2 Base Camp.

KE Adventure reply

Thank you for your review. We were sorry to hear that you were not able to continue with the group over the Gondogoro La from Concordia. It is good that you enjoyed your trek with Ade and that he was able to arrange for you to visit K2 Base camp. With regard to the price for your extra trek down the Baltoro to Askole and vehicle transfer from there to Skardu, we will investigate the discrepancy between the estimated price given to you by your leader and the actual cost and will contact you directly about this.

A fantastic trip!
Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
We all had a great time in Peru trekking the Inca Trail. Peru is an amazing place and the people incredibly friendly. Cusco is a lovely base to start your holiday and allows you to acclimatise yourself to the altitude. The track was fantastic and the guide and potters were incredibly friendly. The trek may be slightly longer than many you will see advertised but it allows you to fully appreciate Machu Picchu and you don't have any 3.30am starts. KE Adventure were great to deal with from the very first enquiry I made and I would defiantly use them again.

Fantastic Holiday
Botswana Wildside Lodge Safari
<p>Fantastic holiday. the guides were great, the safaris excellent (we saw a leopard each day for four days and a litter of hunting dogs amongst other things). Victoria falls is amazing. Botswana is beautiful and the people are so friendly. we went in July and it was very cold some mornings so take fleeces/jacket/hat and gloves. The schedule is non stop so if you don't like getting up early each morning then think again- the latest start we had was 7.30 except for the last day when we opted for an optional start of 7 am for the white water rafting. White water rafting was superb but there is a fairly punishing walk down to and from the gorge. The guides Chris and Valentine were superb and really added to the trip. generally an excellent trip- we will be back!</p>

Excellent trekking , amazing scenery, faultless trekking crew
Stok Kangri & the Markha Valley - Private Churcher

<p>Really well organised trip, everything ran very smoothly. Our trekking crew were amazing, always smiling and working hard to give a great all round service.We had nothing to think about apart from the walking. Food was excellent ,with good variety, no one was ill and we did eat the salads. The altitude makes the trip harder but the scenery is worth it. The guiding up the peak was just right with excellent safety and use of rope when needed.</p>

Great Riding, Fantastic Guide, Wonderful Cultural Experience
High Trails of Macedonia
<p>Best-guided trip I've ever been on. Definitely the best for meeting and talking with local people. Alex is super gregarious and he was always happy to help us talk with people we met while riding. Made the trip very special for us. It was a great experience to meet so many amazingly friendly people in Macedonia. Definitely the best food I've had on any KE trip. Exceptional home cooked meals with local families Alex knows. Excellent hidden gem restaurants. Great riding too! I&# 039;d highly recommend to anyone.</p>

An Excellent, Beautiful, Fun Challenge - Not For the Faint Hearted!
Ultimate Tour du Mont Blanc
<p>We (Father and Daughter team) have just returned from the first UTM trip for 2016 and cannot stop talking about it! We had an outstanding 10 days in the Alps and highly recomend this trip to all who love beautiful scenery, a mixture of accommodation styles and and varied, long walking days. There were so many highlights; in particular some charming refuge experiences (the setting of Cabane D'Orny is magical), outstanding viewpoints such as the Fenetre d'Arpette, the Grand Col Ferret and the Iron Cross above the Col de Balme and high quality facilities at Yeti Lodge, such as a sauna and jacuzzi for a well-deserved relax! We could not have asked for a more caring, organised, knowledgable guide, Chris Pound, who also shared with us his wonderful sense of humour and love for M&amp;Ms! We mostly experienced blissful sunshine although there were large amounts of snow to walk through on certain higher paths (unexpected in July!) so poles were extremely useful. We also advise taking plentiful Swiss Francs and extra snacks to compliment the provided packed lunch. Although the UTM is tough - it requires a high level of fitness for the long days and steep ascents/descents - it gave us a huge sense of achievement and we loved every single day. We agreed that it has been our favourite walking holiday for years (and we have experienced many excellent ones between us!). All that is left to say is a massive thank you to our lovely group, our amazing guide and all of the KE staff. So what are you waiting for? Time to take on the UTM challenge!</p>

Great Trekking in Norway
Traverse of the Jotunheimen
<p>I'm just back from the Traverse of the Jotunheim - a really wonderful trip hut-to-hut trek through stunning scenery. Our guide Jakob was excellent, generally happy for us to go at our own pace and a really friendly and helpful guy. The Bessegen ridge was a highlight and clearly the most popular walk in Norway with hundreds of people on it. The ascent of Galdhopiggen, Norway's highest peak, was also outstanding. The huts were great with superb food and good facilities. The trek king was hard with long days and heavy packs but we were rewarded with amazing mountain scenery, lots of soft snow and numerous waterfalls. Norway is very expensive so be prepared but we were also lucky with largely sunny weather. Highly recommended.</p>

a challenging but beautiful experience
Best of Corsica's GR20
<p>We were a small group of 5, all roughly similar in experience and ability - and blessed with an excellent local guide. The arrangements all worked very well, the refuges can be a bit of a challenge but the atmosphere was friendly and the food surprisingly good, and we had stunning weather. The scenery is very variable, always beautiful and often extremely rugged. This is definitely not a walk for the faint-hearted, 2 days in particular were tough but that simply contributed to an overal l sense of achievement at the end. Overall. a brilliant experience.</p>

BEST TREK YET
Choquequirao to Machu Picchu
I chose this trek on recommendation from Lucy one of the KE team and was not disappointed.

From start to finish the trek was expertly managed both by the KE team and our lady guide Kantu Valor Nelgar backed by her assistant Guide Ruben. Kantu’s general knowledge, her friendly approach to her guests and honest desire to please made this trip very special.

The kitchen team headed by Geronimo produced amazing food considering the facilities, each meal presented resta urant fashion, we were never disappointed nor hungry. Where possible local produce including eggs were used.

The pace of the trek was correctly judged, based upon Kantu’s assessment of the general ability of the group. A back up horse was provided for those who needed it either to ride or to off load a heavy rucksack.

The long days were never too much to cope with due the frequent drink and snack stops interspersed with lunch. Time was always made for photos and for questions.

The camp sites were well chosen, my favourite situated on the terraces at Pincha Unuyoc which afforded fantastic views Rio Blanco valley coupled with cool spring water, ideal for a mid trek shower and laundry stop.

The views especially at the Totora pass were breathtaking, something I will long remember. The trek up was through fields of giant Peruvian lupins that were in full flower.

Each morning Ruben and his team provided a welcome hot drink and bowl of water to wash with prior to breakfast and an early start to avoid much of the heat of the day.

The variety offered by this trek made it quite special, the knowledge of our guide Kantu making it all the more so.

The hotels used and the transport were good as was the choice of restaurants, we chose not to try guinea pig! preferring the Lama steaks which were delicious.

All in all this will be a trek to remember and to recommend to friends.

Brilliant trip to a beautiful area: great VF, great food, great huts.......Epic
Dolomites Via Ferrata

A well thought out itinerary, visiting great huts with excellent food and taking in a number of exiting via ferrata on the way. If you've got a good head for heights don't miss this trip.
