Travel with a very good medical kit

Climbing up the dunes at Sossusvlei, sunset amongst the rock formations of Spitzkoppe, the wildlife at Etosha National Park, canoeing through the Okavango Delta, and best of all swimming in the Devil's Pool on the brink of Victoria Falls.

Gansh Himal was an amazing first trip to Nepal, everyday you could see the Ganesh Himal mountains becoming clearer until you could see the whole range in one go. There are a couple of stiff days, especially the 1500m descent on day 4 of the trek.

Enjoyed the mix of culture and walking in the countryside

Lion Rock
Horton plains national park
Game drives
Afternoon high tea

Just the best time! The scenery, the people, the wildlife and the trekking all added up to a wonderful, brilliant experience. Can't recommend this holiday enough!

Highlight - The beautiful forested valley leading up to Ne-Pemachhal and onwards to Palmothang.

A great insight into Costa Rica, the country and people but most of all to the fantastic array of wildlife we saw on our trip. The highlight was an anteater that passed a few metres away from us, and was totally uninhibited by humans around it.

Well organised and safely run

No particular highlights because the entire 3 week trek was extremely memorable. Every day brought new experiences, each one adding to the experience of a lifetime.

Excellent trip and so well organised

Holiday highlights: experiencing a torrential downpour on the veranda in the rain forest; finding a coffee plant growing beside my lodge; seeing Sri Lankan elephants and visiting the elephant transit home in Udawalawe.
Top tip: Don't fret over Adam's Peak. Make the decision once you've climbed 4 flights of stairs, then 200 more up, then 200 down for dinner, then 200 back up to bed. If you're ok with that, then go do Adam's Peak.

Loved the topography, great group spirit and supportive leader - most days were moderate hiking but 2 days were more challenging and required strong fitness and balance on rock & bolders Overall a great introduction to Bulgaria nature & high points.

Fantastic landscapes and variety. Very tough going in heat of November especially in strong winds. Endless long straight roads can be a bit soul destroying. Setting up and taking down camp most nights is an added workload but scenery and variety help off set that. Possibility to upgrade to rooms instead of camping was very welcome a few times.

It was a nice mix of walking, shopping, culture and beach. There were many leeches in the forest/jungle walking and although we wore leech socks which worked well and our guide was very assiduous with salt, dettol as deterrents.. probably worth mentioning

Our guide Uden was absolutely fantastic - attention to detail, knowledge of the area including its history, brilliant sense of humour, looking after our medical needs, adapting to conditions (the wrong domestic terminal on the boarding passes, dreadful weather conditions etc), and fostering positive group dynamics. The very best KE group leader I have encountered - and there have been many excellent ones.

The reserves, the guides and the snorkelling.
