Excellence of service in all respects
Icefjords and Remote Villages of East Greenland
Really don't want to use all the usual superlatives here - this trip made my heart sing - such an enlightening sense of a whole other part of the world - lots of surprises, sharp intakes of breath, gasps of awe. Weaving among the icebergs down the Sermilik Fjord through an early mist that cleared to searing blue and a startling ice bow.... wow.

As an experienced but not 'top level' hiker/trekker, the itinerary was for me a good challenge without being overly daunting, so I felt stretched
... really positively! [Our guide] Einar is an absolute star - so good as a Leader!! Really enjoyed his company, the huge education he gave us on Greenland, his oh so dry humour, and all his practical care, not only when trekking, but in all our mornings and evenings together. Just brilliant, a joy to have got to know him. [The accommodation] was basic, but perfectly fine and if anything, better than I was ready for. I expected a bit of roughing it and enjoyed that. Anything else would not have felt right! If anything the food was more substantial than I expected, so that was a pleasant surprise. I would have been just as happy with lower quality and quantity, but as it was, delicious and delightful. And fun to prepare it together!

Many thanks for all your team behind the scenes!

Timeless Trails of Portugal's Algarve
Timeless Trails of Portugal's Algarve
Our week with Jonathan, Violeta, Isabella and Dylan, organised by KE Adventure, was the best holiday we’ve ever spent. The setting was idyllic, the accommodation lovely and the warmth of the company – both family and other guests – something to treasure.
We devoured every scrap of Violeta’s amazing food, ranging from fresh fruit platters, hot rolls, warm croissants, pastel de nata and pikelets, cold meats and cheeses, and hot dishes in the mornings, generously filled rolls for lunch,
... and extraordinary evening spreads with homegrown vegetables and salads, lovely meat and fish dishes and delicious puddings. Only the fabulous tapas, that went along with an impromptu wine tasting laid on by Jonathan, were so plentiful they eventually defeated us.
We spent five days walking amid spectacular coastal scenery, four of them in glorious sunshine, led by Jonathan or Isabella (sometimes accompanied by Alana the dog) and driven to and from by Jonathan and Dylan. On our free day we explored the nearby historic town of Lagos.
It was in so many ways a holiday that delivered more than was promised. We walked along perfect beaches, swam in the sea and in a neighbouring lake, went body boarding twice (taught and looked after by Jonathan and Dylan), did daily stretch or yoga classes led by Isabella and a local yoga teacher, enjoyed professional massages by Isabella, scoffed afternoon beers and ice-creams in cafes, and ate out at a couple of excellent restaurants.
If you’re thinking of visiting Portugal’s beautiful Algarve and enjoy walking, there’s no better way to do it.

Icefjords and Remote Villages of East Greenland

Excellent service and advice. [Our guide Einar] - He was just amazing. A mine of information, helpful and a good cook. [The accommodation] - It was just simple houses. But what I expected and I loved the experience. Excellent doesn't necessarily reflect the facilities but the houses were clean and atmosphere good and just lovely.

Scandinavian Beauty
Walk West Sweden - Island Hopping
KE prepared an interesting itinerary and our trip was enjoyable. Highlights included warm sunny weather allowing sea swimming, comfortable hotels with excellent breakfast and good locations near public transport. The Västtrafik app was essential as per KE instructions - it provides accurate timetables and cheaper, hassle-free ticket buying. Public transport runs on time.
Minor issues: there was miscommunication about spa reservations (despite being advised of booked times) and a picnic was
... prepared a day early. Talking to reception upon arrival helped sort these.
One criticism: KE trip notes weren't fully accurate. Day 5 in Smögen offered a trip to Bohus island or a Kungshamn-Tullboden hike. Bohus island visits are only possible July-August; September's single ferry had a 2-hour limit, making the 10km walk impossible. The second hike lacked route notes and was unsupported (apparently forgotten in trip notes). We improvised and we completed this hike anyway. It was a good circular hike, the trail was well marked.
Knowing island visit limitations beforehand might've led us to travel in August instead of September. Smögen's small so we managed well with our own hike plan.

An outstanding trip, the itinerary was perfect and the grading spot on.
Across the High Atlas Trek
One of the best treks I have ever been on. It fulfilled all my dreams and expectations, crossing the High Atlas had been on my bucket list for decades and finally I had this wonderful opportunity. My first KE trip was in 1999, when I joined The Great Karakorum Traverse, which I see you now no longer offer. I followed that with Aconcagua and the Cordillera Huayhuash in later years, however I hadn't travelled with you since 2004. I was relieved to find that your pre-departure comms, and the way ... in which the trip was run was still of a very high quality, and I am very pleased that I decided to choose KE again after a break of 20 years!

Well organized, knowledgeable guides, safe traveling on some unusual routes
Across the High Atlas Trek

I loved the trip and despite it being really hard I would recommend to all my hiking friends. It was a really interesting adventure. Our guide Mohamed Rezki really took good care of us and his leadership was excellent. He had a great relationship with the muleteers also and everything went smoothly and we had a lot of fun.

Great personal service from staff who understand the trips
Across the High Atlas Trek

Wonderful country to visit, the trip was tough, but had many highlights - colourful landscape, silence of the wilderness, passing through remote Berber communities, some remote campsites, ascents of M'gon and Toubkal

Very well run trip and we will be booking again with KE
High Tatras Trekking - The Carpathian Mountains

We have had 3 trips now with KE and they all have been well run, organized and good value. Excellent guide. Very well informed and we felt very safe with his decision making.

Successful trip
Cycling Amsterdam to Bruges
The trip was extremely well organised and more or less went without a hitch. Being self guided felt we had been given all the tools we needed to have a successful trip - bikes, maps , luggage transfer, good accommodation with helpful staff and useful information and ideas of places to visit. A bit daunted by the size of the navigation/ route notes but impressed by the amount of information the booklet contained. It was useful to have the numbers on a separate page. Great to have the app too. ... Only problem was that it was heavy on the phone battery. Wished we'd brought a power pack with us !!

An interesting adventure
Icefjords and Remote Villages of East Greenland
This trip is for those who are strong, able walkers. Granite scree and boulder fields make for long, tough ascents and walks need good balance. You must be able to adapt to very basic and sometimes unhygienic, unmanaged accommodation. The decline in innuit culture is obvious, but non the less interesting to witness. Boat transfers across fjords are thrilling and scenery spectacular. The boat trip where we saw a sperm whale was definitely a highlight. We were blessed with good weather but ... things could be pretty bleak here if not. Overall, an interesting trip and to my surprise, with a (great) group of French speaking clients. I was the only client from KE so my French quickly improved! If you couldn’t speak any French this could have been a very long two weeks!

High Tatras
High Tatras Trekking - The Carpathian Mountains

Top class service on the two times I have used KE. [Our guide] did a great job on guiding - was informative and had a great sense of humour.

Efficiently organised
High Tatras Trekking - The Carpathian Mountains

KE and Jakub made it very easy to explore the High Tatras with an interesting itinerary that would be difficult for an independent solo traveller to organise. Plenty of good food and more comfortable accommodation than expected.

A nicely varied trip
Mount Ararat - Turkey's Sacred Summit

A nicely varied trip, with cultural and relaxation opportunities as well as climbing the mountain. The summit day is a big day, but otherwise the exercise is manageable. Ibrahim was outstanding. He was a mine of information on cultural and historical matters, a very likeable man with an excellent sense of humour, and was always attentive to the needs of the group.

Well thought out, and flexible self-guided trip
Walking in the Azores

I enjoyed the Azores trip and will certainly consider future travel plans to include KE as a partner. It is nice to be somewhere where you don't outnumber or overwhelm either the local residents or the places you are visiting.

Great itinerary
Fjords and Fjells of the Lofoten Islands

The lofoten trip was well organised, had a great itinerary and was well led. [Our guide was] wonderful in every way - friendly, professional manner, knowledgable, watched out for individual needs of group
members super organised. Delicious home cooking by our tour leader giving us an experience of Norwegian food.

The trip was fantastic in every respect
Choquequirao to Machu Picchu
I have now been on 3 KE trips and all have been exceptionally planned and executed. The trip leaders and other support personnel have been excellent. The trip was fantastic in every respect, the route, the sites, the degree of difficulty, the teamwork. The flora, fauna, history, cultural immersion. Our guide Rudy was exceptional in every respect. Very good English language skills. Full of energy. He held one very special offering to the mountain gods on our last walking day which for most ... people there, was very moving. It would be fair to say that Rudy made the trip extremely special for everyone!

Brilliant trip
Traverse of the Jotunheimen

Brilliant trip hiking through a variety of stunning scenery (everything from glacier and boulder fields through to grassy valleys and forests), all of it led by our excellent guide Richard. Two tips: 1) make the effort to climb Kyrkja, the views are fantastic, and 2) the drying rooms at the huts were very good so take some washing powder for hand washing clothes.

The booking experience was very easy. Any questions I had were answered satisfactorily. The process was smooth and straightforward and the level of interaction was perfect. I wasn't bombarded with loads of emails and things to do. All relevant info arrived as and when informed. No complaints whatsoever. Very happy with our holiday and overall experience.
