Madeira is a beautiful Island

Levada Trails and Peaks of Madeira

This was my 1st trip with KE Adventure following a recommendation from someone that did this same tour to Madeira. I arrived a day late in Funchal along with a few other people in our group, due to weather conditions preventing us from landing on Day one. Aside from this, I really enjoyed the trip and the itinerary each day. The group dynamic was nice and everyone got on really well with each other.
Our guide Nuno is very knowledgeable, well organized and an excellent leader. The included ... food was all very nice. The walks each day were varied and offered great views. I didn't find them particularly difficult. Unfortunately the day we were meant to do the 2 big peaks, the weather was really bad and too dangerous so we did an alternative lower level walk which was still enjoyable.

Varied and interesting itinerary

Sacred Summits of Olympus and Meteora

Meteora was delightful and exceeded my expectations.
The time spent on Mt Olympus was magical..... even in poor weather. The pace of the trip is just right and is interesting for the entire duration. The hotel accommodation is good and the refuges are cosy and have a good atmosphere

Superb trip to Crete

Walking the White Mountains of Crete

I had a fantastic trip to Crete in late September, the whole week ran so well, mostly down to our wonderful guide Jean. His knowledge and walks leading and great sense of humour really made the week. The walks were quite arduous in places, and rough underfoot and I enjoyed the day off! Hotels were basic in Omalos, but still fine, and more comfortable along the coast. Food was good and always plentiful. The two lunches where Jean had pre-ordered the food were one of the high points. It is a huge ... shame that next year no lunches are provided. The weather was good, 20C in the hills and close to 30C on the coast. The walks were varied, both gorges were dramatic, the pick-up ride high into the hills was memorable. We were a small group of just 7. Transfers and boat trips all ran smoothly, I personally really thought the boat trips added to the whole experience. In summary I thoroughly recommend this trip, it was excellent, and again many thanks Jean for making it a superb week.

KE Adventure reply

Thank you for your review James. We're so glad to read you enjoyed the holiday. With regard to lunches next year, we have taken the decision to remove these from the trip price as dietary preferences have meant not everyone has been as happy as you with the set packed lunches. We think removing set lunches will allow for greater choice.

Fantastic trip

Walking Camino - The Portuguese Way - 2 Weeks

Brilliant accommodation (some had swimming pools), luggage transfer worked perfectly, the route is clearly marked with arrows and shells and the trails are beautiful. Not brilliant for vegetarian, but that can't be helped. Loved every minute of the whole trip. The only problem now is I want to do it all again! 🤣

Outstanding adventure in a gorgeous place with fantastic company

Peaks and Passes of the Nubra Valley

This was an amazing expedition into remote Ladakh valleys with an exceptional guide Pekma. He was calm, reassuring, jolly and always laughing. His crew was well organized, attentive, helpful and courteous. I couldn't ask for anything more. Every day was rewarding, ending at fantastic campsite locations with scrumptious meals. If anyone is considering this trip, I would say don't hesitate, just got for it.

Great mixture of exercise and cultural activity

Walking the Islands and Volcanoes of Sicily

Tony was the best guide I've had. He did a great job keeping the group together, leading the hikes and telling us about the places we visited. The wine tour at hauner was excellent.

The entire trip to Croatia was amazing.

Walking Croatia's Coast & Mountains

The real standout of the holiday were the guides, Bundy and Dario. They went above and beyond entertaining us with anecdotes and stories, and informing us about the locality, both modern and historical. They were very well organised, sorting an alternative route when the weather made one day impossible, with Bundy even doing guided tours of Zadar and Split. Most importantly, they were just great fun to spend a week with. Croatia itself is a beautiful and varied country, with pretty villages and ... cities, where we felt welcome at all times.

Baltic Trails Adventure.

Baltic Trails Adventure

Guides can make a trip and our guide, Rita, was the best; very helpful, knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble, (even to the extent of providing links for anyone interested in further reading AFTER we had returned).
Food was excellent with plenty of choice and prices on a par with the UK.
The hotel in Vilnius was not good but thereafter the accommodation did improve considerably.
I saw this trip as more for the culture and history although the walking was worthwhile albeit ... unlikely to reduce the weight gain! Afterall the highest hill in the Baltic states is barely above 300m and 50% of the landmass is covered by forests. For me the walking highlights were the Curonian Spit (only a spit away from the Russian Oblast of Kaliningrad which seemed a tad surreal) and the Viru bog trail which was stunning. I can't pronounce plenty of the other places that we visited but all were of interest (NB brewery visit with generous sampling of the various brews). One notable surprise was coming across a site commemorating a place where the Nazis carried out an atrocity in WW2.
Tallinn's old town is notable but all three capitals had beautiful city centres reflecting their complex and often tragic histories (Russia is notably unpopular).
This is an excellent trip to discover/experience a part of the World with which most people are likely pretty uninformed.
Be aware that Finland's capital, Helsinki, is only a ferry ride across the Gulf of Finland and probably worth an extra day or two at the end of the trip. Something that I only learned after it was too late.

Our fifth KE holiday. It ran as smoothly as the others and would always feature in future trips

Trails of the Amalfi Coast

All round delightful holiday with an excellent balance between tourism and walking. Our guide / trek leader was very efficient and knowledgeable. Giovannis breadth of knowledge was astounding, he got on well with everybody and looked after a mainly older group sympathetically.

A fabulous travel agent that I've used many times with complete satisfaction

Timeless Trails of Portugal's Algarve

A wonderful family and Jonathan as our trek leader is a class act. The food experience of every meal as prepared by Violeta, Jonathan, Dylan and Isabella was nothing short of stellar at all times. The thought of coming home to one of their superb dinners after a long coastal trek was such a superb end to the arduous day.

The incredible Incas

Choquequirao to Machu Picchu

What an amazing trek. We had the most wonderful, enthusiastic and caring guide ‘Rudy’. He’s a terrific asset to KE. His knowledge and positivity was truly inspirational. The chefs and kitchen staff, horsemen and lovely Joie who acted as a back marker on the trek all worked tirelessly to ensure we all had a wonderful experience. The trek was superb and full of contrasts from the mountain peaks to the flowing river there was spectacular scenery all around. Once we saw the first terraces of ... the Inca sites it was overwhelming. The whole experience was thoroughly enjoyable. We were very fortunate to have a magnificent group of trekking companions too. A very special holiday.

A wonderful island perfect for trekking

Walking Around Madeira

Madeira is a small island, but perfect for a week's trekking around the cliffs, forests, mountains and levada's. The hotels were all perfectly located and of a good standard. The taxis and luggage transport was very efficient and the walking app certainly made life a lot easier. Madeira was much more lush and green than I expected, even though we had no rain during the 8 day trip. A wide range of food is available with the emphasis on fish! Weather was perfect for trekking in September, low ... 20's during the day and a little hotter in Funchal. Would definitely recommend.

This Will Go Down as One of My Favorites

Baltic Trails Adventure

A great holiday. I have to say up front that a big part of my enjoyment was the company. Our guide, Rita, was just superb. Super knowledgeable and articulate. Leading while integrating seamlessly with the group. Leslie, with KE's travel office, was also with us. She was such great fun. Being based in the US, I have never had the opportunity to use Leslie's services, but I would strongly recommend her to UK customers. She knows her business inside and out, and clearly enjoys helping ... others.

As for the itinerary, it is diverse and busy, but not physically demanding. The exception to the last is that there is some beach and dune walking which some of our party found difficult. However, in some cases there are options to avoid walking in the sand. Among the highlights, touring the three capital cities stands out. Special thanks to Rita for arranging an unscheduled tour of Tallinn at the end of the tour. I recommend that the Tallinn tour become a regularly scheduled part of the itinerary. Of the nature walks, the two in Lahemaa National Park on the last day spoke to me the most, providing a great finale to the sojourn. Overall the tour provided a good opportunity to learn about the fascinating and often tragic history of the region while experiencing some of its peculiarities (e.g., the Curonian Spit, the Hill of Crosses and amber collecting) and its agreeable cuisine. I was also very happy with the choice of accommodations.

An unforgettable experience at an affordable price

One Week Mount Toubkal Trek

KE provided a very well organised package, everything included, very experienced guides and their hard working team. The guides were exceptional! They managed the itinerary with immense skill and flexibility, and with great humour and friendliness even though we were a group of diverse abilities. Younes is an immensely skilled guide, he led an amazing team with confidence that inspired us all. That I achieved what I did on this trek is very much all thanks to Younes.

Rewarding

Choquequirao to Machu Picchu

This is a great tek led by Rudy the guide for this trip, he was so good at educating us on the history and customs of the Incas and generally being a great guide, he was assisted also by Joey who always made sure that we were safe on the trails. The walking on several days was tough but with a bit of grit and determination it's doable for regular walkers. Campsites on most days were located in scenic spots with a toilet and mostly with a shower, although some were very basic, and the tents were ... spacious and in very good condition. As for food we were amazed at the quality that was served consistently by the two chefs (in whites) assisted by two kitchen staff all very friendly, also hygiene was followed scrupously with soap and water by the mess tent and hand sanitizers on the dining table. The day's get continuously better as the trek progresses all the way up to Machhu Picchu, and though we had walked all day, the train wasn't running when we got there hence having to walk along the railway line for two hours to Aguas Calientes, we still enjoyed the extra hike. This is a tough trek hence the 8 rating, but in my opinion it has to be one of the best all round operated by KE.
