IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT THE SUMMIT!!
Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route
KE have an excellent reputation for safety on big trips such as Kilimanjaro and this is a big reason I booked for this trip through KE. Once on a trip the local guides are experienced and having worked with KE for a large number of years means you feel very safe in their hands and they deliver a high quality service and experience.

In 2007 I stood on the summit of Mt Kenya, 4985 metres, having never believed I was physically strong enough to trek up such a high mountain. Since th
en I have challenged myself on mountains both home and away and all have taught me a lot about myself and others but my latest adventure really has cemented why I like to take on the challenge of mountains and even I'm quite taken aback by how I feel…

Since Mt Kenya, Mt Kilimanjaro has been on my horizon but I was worried it was all about the chance to say 'I trekked up Kilimanjaro' was I only interested so I would have the summit badge of honour?

I was working in Tanzania in July and prior to that had pushed the mountain to the back of my mind but then I saw it bigger than any mountain I had seen before, mostly because it's a single mountain not part of a range, at that moment Ihad this overwhelming emotion that I had to give it a go.

At this point I could share images of this life changing trek and the summit picture but… this trek like many others I have completed was actually about the journey and most importantly the people!! Without
the amazing strength, kindness and dedication of our porters, guides and cook team I believe we would not have been successful!!

Spending 8 days in this beautiful mountain environment sharing stories, developing friendships and embracing a basic life, I feel, is so much more than the summit. I'm so thankful for the experience I have had during that journey not just 15 minutes on the summit. I still don't fully understand my obsession with mountains but I'm so pleased to have it!!

This is a genuine thanks to the beautiful team of Tanzanian's who created summit success.

Brilliant experience
Spires and Ice - Trekking Patagonia

Second trip, great organisation. All accommodation used surpassed expectations. Huge quantities of food and again surpassed expectations. Our guide Luis was superb. Kind and attentive. Very knowledgeable and with real passion for the nature and preserving the environment. Went above and beyond at all times.

Good variety of accommodation, locations and experiences of walking
Walking Cape Verde - Santo Antao & Sao Vicente
Good balance of locations and walking. I think the grading as 'easier' and 'harder' is well thought through. We are pretty good walkers and thought we'd be up for the 'harder' walks. However, the harder option on Hike 2 Cliff and Norte Plateau was particularly hard for us and so after that we opted for the 'easier' walks and felt like we had done a good walk. I really liked the coastal walk and also those that passed through the agricultural and growi ng areas. Seeing the veg beds and fruit trees was great.

It was good to see that our holiday benefitted the local communities. Several of the places we stayed at were sustainability conscious.

Wilderness Snowshoe Adventure

I loved it
Patagonia - The Classic Paine Circuit

I loved it and was very emotional at the end as had had such a magical trip. The glacial lakes, ice field, Torres and condors were particularly special and brought tears to my eyes each time. The trip was impeccable from arrival in Buenos Aires at the start, throughout the trek and all went to plan to get home.

Jewel of the Canaries
La Gomera - Jewel of the Canaries
Our La Gomera trek was well organised, well run and reasonably priced. Communication was excellent.

I can't speak highly enough of Ene. He was responsible for ensuring that this trip was so much more than a walking holiday. He managed the practical details on the trail and at our various accommodations with good humour. He also spoke with great passion and knowledge about the history and culture of La Gomera, illustrated also with reference to his own family. A very warm per
son with a winning smile and excellent communication, he was a great ambassador for his home island.

Jewel of the Canaries
La Gomera - Jewel of the Canaries

The organisation of the trip and information provided prior to the trip was very good. My e mail queries were dealt withvery promptly. The trip itself was excellent and lived up to my expectation. Ene was absolutely excellent. He is clearly passionate about his home country. He gave us great insights into the history, politics, geography, climate, ecology and customs of the people in La Gomera. I found this made the trip much more than just a walking holiday.

I had a wonderful time!
La Gomera - Jewel of the Canaries

My first trip with KE Adventure and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Superb guide, lovely hotels and food, and a great group of likeminded travellers. What a perfect getaway during a cold, miserable January in in the UK! Exceptional value, considering the quality of the walks, accommodation, food and guide. Booking early meant flights were extremely reasonable, too.

Very enjoyable trips and professional service
Walking South Africa

All accommodation was of a beautiful standard and was well suited to the trip. Good balance of walks, game drives & general sight seeing. Some long drives though but only to be expected. Both guides were very helpful & knowledgeable and managed the group well.

Seamless
Mount Toubkal in Winter

Everything was seamless. Our guide, Lahcen, was there at the airport in Marrakesh. He kept us informed all throughout
the trip as to what was happening. Lahcen was friendly, competent, caring, made the trip run super smoothly.

An outstanding journey through an extraordinary country.
Heritage Trails of Rajasthan
A wonderful itinerary filled with memorable experiences and sights, from the chaos of Delhi to the peace of the lake cruise in Udaipur, from the majestic Amber Fort to the natural beauty of Kumbhalgarh and Ranthambore parks and of course the incomparable Taj Mahal. Not to mention a tour of one of the worlds greatest cuisines, every meal was a tour of sensation, spices and rich flavours. Most of all, the thing that made this trip truly exceptional, the tour guide Ketan, a more capable, passionate and knowledgeable guide you will never meet. Ketan my friend, you made my trip to India one I will never forget... pity my bowling in an Agra park cricket match with some locals was so rubbish!

Fantastic trip - throughout!!
Mount Toubkal in Winter

The trip was just what I was looking for, on the dates I wanted. The itinerary gave the best chance of summitting (on Christmas day!) The trip was well organised throughout, with excellent guides, accommodation and food!

Fantastic, but challenging walk with great support from trekking staff
Everest the Hard Way Trek
This was my first trip to the Himalayas and my first trek with KE Adventures. Neither disappointed!
Everest the Hard Way is certainly challenging but the spectacular views from the '3 Passes' that are crossed, more than compensate for any 'pain' and are etched in my mind forever. While Base Camp was the goal, getting there by the circular '3 Passes' route felt a much more 'complete' experience than the traditional linear route to EBC.
Durin
g the planning prior to departure, I always felt KE Adventure were on top of things and my queries were answered promptly.
Organisation on the ground was excellent and while certainly not a luxury (!) experience, it was a comfortable experience. This was in no small part due to the care and attention of our guide/ leader - Rinji Furba Sherpa - and his team of deputy guides and porters. It is telling that several of my fellow trekkers who had been on about 10-15 Nepal treks between them, all commented privately that Rinji was by far and away the most efficient trek leader they had had. This was in terms of his effective party management during the day when he set an appropriate pace and knowing when and where to rest at convenient locations - always with amazing views! As we walked he shared his knowledge and passion for his country. At the tea houses, he always ensured we were all fed and watered and he personally dealt with any odd issues that cropped up. I saw at first hand his effectiveness as a leader when dealing with a medical evacuation due to AMS. I had no doubt I was in safe and competent hands.
So in conclusion, this was a great experience, made all the more so by KE Adventure and their team on the ground led by Rinji. I plan to use them again for future trips and highly recommend them.

Fantastic trip
Inca Trail to Machu Picchu

Great communication from booking the trip to returning home, excellent customer service and a fantastic trip. Juan is quite rightly a legend amongst the Inca Trail tour guides: extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic, patient, encouraging, supportive and an absolutely lovely man who went far above and beyond in making this the trip of a lifetime and creating wonderful memories.

Ecuador's Triple Crown
Ecuador's Triple Crown
Thank you to all KE staff involved in the Ecuador Triple Crown trip. It was great and I'm so glad I did it. Everything was well organised and ran smoothly, with excellent food, good accommodation and lovely helpful and friendly guides - special mention here for Ramiro our group leader. The variety of places that we visited/climbed/trekked made it really interesting. Yes it was tough, very high on the toughness scale of trips I have done over the years but that just adds to the sense of achi evement.

Poor Leader
Jebel Sahro Walking Holiday

This is a great walk BUT our leader was poor! On a ‘poorly’ day he led the group at a pace I could not sustain (I’m an experienced and generally strong hill walker) . I ended up abandoned and lost!! REALLY, not good at all! But don’t let this one experience put you off, just hope for a different leader and not to suffer ‘travellers tummy’!!

By John from Derby’s | 01 January 2025

KE Adventure reply

Thank you for your review John. We are glad you thought this was a great walk despite you being poorly on one of the days. Your leader has received consistently good feedback from his previous groups so we were disappointed to hear about this when you brought it to our attention. As you know from our private correspondence with you at the time, we are taking appropriate action to ensure your leader learns from your feedback.

Nicaragua Lakes and Volcanoes
Nicaragua Lakes and Volcanoes

This was a fantastic trip, the itinerary gave a good overview of Nicaragua. The San Juan River gives fantastic opportunities for bird watching. The cities of Granada and Leon show life in Nicaraguan cities. Isla Ometepe was stunning and I would highly recommend the optional excursion of the waterfall hike and canoeing. The hikes showed the various ecosystems of the country and it's not everywhere you can slide down a volcano on your bum.

Excellent Trip - Highly Recommend
Mount Toubkal in Winter

Excellent trip to Mount Toubkal with KE. We had amazing guides, Lachen and Eunece, both of whom were very supportive and knowledgeable of the area. The food was exceptional for the entire trip. As expected, accommodation on the mountains was basic but did the job. We had a brilliant group and it was very special to summit Mount Toubkal on christmas morning with such an amazing group of people. Looking forward to my next trip with KE.
