An interesting and varied trip to a relatively unknown destination
Nicaragua Lakes and Volcanoes
The trip was a good mix of walking / hiking, river boat journeys, rainforest walks, volcano walks, amazing birds, insects and other wildlife, some sightseeing and visits to churches, museums and art gallery, some free time, some optional activities - all led by local leader and guide JC (Juan Carlos Mendoza) who was very knowledgeable about the country, its people (who were all very friendly and helpful), economy, history etc and excellent knowledge about the birds, monkeys, cayman and other ... wildlife, and very willing to flex arrangements to meet the group's wishes. Our driver for the trip Alfonso was careful and considerate throughout. The extra local guides that we used on some of the walks were all excellent, again helpful and full of information. Our weather was hot, sunny, sometimes humid (thankfully no rain) and perfectly OK for the itinerary. Hotels varied as one would expect but were all absolutely OK, food likewise, there are some excellent restaurants in Granada and Leon. If the itinerary appeals then go for it, you will not be disappointed.

Spires and Ice - Trekking Patagonia

The way the W-trek was planned was excellent. We only had to carry the full pack all day on one of the days of the trek. Our guide Luis is a lovely person. Very knowledgeable and happy to share with us. Made the trip special. I liked all the accommodation. I particularly enjoyed the stay on the estancia. We certainly did not starve :-). The packed lunches were awesome.

Fantastic Finland
Finland Wilderness Snowshoe Adventure

I've done so many trips with KE over the years I've lost count and this was the first time I've ever done a trip again. Fantastic Finland the wilderness and nature are fantastic.

Lovely cabin, clean, great sauna and ice hole in the lake. Quiet with good communal facilities and great food. Anton was a great trip leader, obviously been a guide for many years and this shone through he was never flustered and always full of confidence.

Great Way to Get Acquainted With Volcanoes
Guatemala's Magnificent Seven

Summit views and time in town were highlights of the trip. Of the seven volcanoes ascended, the last three, Tajumulco, Santa Maria, and Acatenago (overlooking Fuego) offer the best eye candy, and eruptions might be seen from the last two. Our group witnessed a small eruption on the flanks of Santa Maria. Fuego, however, was just releasing steam during our visit.

Great trip
Inside the Arctic Circle - Skiing the Kings Trail

Great trip and everything was well organized in terms of pre-trip communication and arrangements during the trip. The scenery was so dramatic! Our guide Cecilia was patient, helpful and flexible. Everything was as expected except for one tiny detail - I would have brought hand soap and shampoo for use at Abisko if I had known ahead of time that none would be provided.

Aconcagua
Aconcagua Ascent

Very professional, good price. Feels like a safe pair of hands for more significant expedition type trips. The food provided at the camps was amazing, considering the remoteness and conditions. Good programme for acclimatisation, although some days are significantly harder then the programme suggests (eg trek from Confluencia to Plaza de Mulas). I didn't reach the summit due to problems with altitude but was incredibly well looked after at Basecamp. I still had a great trip.

A great way to explore Thailand
Flavours of Thailand Cultural Explorer
We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday in Thailand. This was a mix of ‘on-your-own’, ‘follow-instructions’, and ‘with-a-guide’. The holiday is based on an app ‘Roadbook’ which contains all the data about the holiday, walking and cycling maps. The routes were excellent, taking us down alleys and narrow streets we would have otherwise avoided. The costs included a replacement phone sim which we didn’t use – with e-sims so common we didn’t see the point. Wi-Fi is so plentiful and ... strong so we managed without another sim. Getting around is easy (and cheap) in taxis (use the Grab app – like Uber) and tuk-tuks. The hotels were all very good and all had huge and comfortable beds. I dreaded the overnight sleeper train but it was the most comfortable and clean sleeper I have ever used. I would be tempted to have a second night going back north! Every tourist does the cookery course, with good reason – its great fun and you get to eat your homework. The people, scenery, temples, palaces, and food (and beer) made for a great holiday. The Raft Hotel has no power so make sure you take a power-bloc to keep your kit going. The Raft Hotel on River Kwai delivers a very memorable end to the holiday (it can only be accessed by boat - there are no roads!) BUT- its really really hot in Thailand – 35C and very humid, so we drank like fish all day.

Wonderful experience
Jebel Sahro Walking Holiday

Well organised. Given the fact that this was our first ever trek, it seemed fine and not too strenuous at grade 5. An outstanding guide who was friendly,informative and helpful all throughout the journey. We felt really well looked after, thanks to Lahcen and his co-workers

Honestly one of the best holidays we've ever had!
Italian Cross-Country Ski Short Break

The whole holiday was brilliant, from looking for a holiday that we might enjoy all the way through to getting home again! For our group, Nadia our guide, was amazing. She judged our ability really well and offered alternatives when necessary. The pace of the activities was spot on, stopping for morning coffee, more skiing, stopping for a leisurely lunch then more skiing and ending the day on a positive before we got too tired. Perfectly judged.

An amazing experience
Sri Lanka End to End Road Cycle Tour

We were absolutely delighted with our holiday. The holiday went so smoothly with such superb guides and non stop with extra trips educating all the way. Superb guide who is so passionate about his country and runs everything so smoothly also nothing is a problem. Still trying to process all the things we did and saw! The tour was an amazing experience.

Well organised trips
Secret Sierras of the Costa Blanca

Good contact/communications with the staff in the office in the UK, real people who know about the trips. Good local guides. Brilliant food throughout, including the lunches and breakfasts. Having done a few trips with KE I think the walks were accurate for the grade of the trip. Chippy was our main guide when we were walking. He was excellent, kept a really good pace, checked on everyone, was very considerate. Brilliant!

Levadas and trails of Madeira.
Levada Trails and Peaks of Madeira

A fantastic trip on what is a beautiful island. A special mention to our very knowledgeable guide Nuno who look after us and entertained us from start to finish. A little disappointing that some of the prescribed routes were closed due to landslides and wildfires, otherwise a great trip which I would highly recommend.

Jebel Sahro
Jebel Sahro Walking Holiday

Good customer service. Good telephone response. Good choice of holidays.

Whilst camping on the trail we were so well catered for by Ibrahim and Hassan and Lahcen, our guide. I have been on a few trips with KE now and all the guides were great but Lahcen is definitely the best guide I have had to date. He was so professional. Paced the walk brilliantly. Extremely polite to both the group and his colleagues. Just a really nice man.

Lost Cities and Coffee Trails
Lost Cities and Coffee Trails of Colombia

I think KE is a wonderful company to use on an adventure anywhere in the world. Daniel was a marvelous tour guide always full of enthusiasm and loads of history and love for his country. Never tired and kept us going through it all. Can not say enough good about this young man.

Stunning
Jebel Sahro Walking Holiday
Excellent customer service and communication. From meeting Lahcen to travelling to the Jebel Sahro it's all been so wonderful. The muleteers and cook are kind and respectful and work very hard to look after us. I was very impressed by the very dramatic scenery, the stuff of cinema, huge sculptural rocks that take many shapes and big plains. Sometimes we passed through pretty almond groves and met the local farmers.

Our guide Lahcen - What a lovely man, very respectful and soft spoken, and
... not overbearing with facts etc. as happens on other tour companies. I would always want him for leader

Excellent we really enjoyed the trip
Sweden Arctic Family Adventure

Great choice of tours and itineraries especially for families. Helpful staff.

We saw the aurora in all its glory on an evening photography course which was a dream come true. Also loved the dog sledding and visiting the hotel spa.

A lot of the guides were Sami and were very knowledgeable about traditional Sami culture. All the activities were within a short drive of camp Ripan or started from camp.
