The Complete GR20
GR20 Corsica - The Complete Route

After 30 years of travel, I can say in all honesty that Paulin is the best guide I have had the pleasure to deal with. A passionate, experienced and fun loving character. A true asset to Corsica. My highlights were Paulin and the never ending beauty that Corsica has to offer.

The holiday was well organised and very enjoyable
Walking Highlights of the Canadian Rockies

Our guide Etienne and his assistant Louis were first class, they were lovely people and looked after us very well. The standard of food we were given was excellent, varied and interesting. They made sure we got the most from our trip and kept us to a good timescale. They definitely went above and beyond the call of duty. This trip will be very hard to beat!

Thoroughly enjoyed the holiday
Walking Highlights of the Canadian Rockies

Our guide Etienne was totally involved at all times- he clearly loved all aspects of the job and came across really well. Never had the impression he needed a break from us! His relationship with his no 2 Louis was also excellent- they really were the dream team! Been on a number of trips and Etienne was definite my no 1 leader- he made this trip outstanding.

Hunza, Shimshal and the Rush Lake Trek
Hunza Valley and the Rush Lake Trek
The Rush Lake part of the itinerary was excellent and every bit as spectacular as I had hoped for. The trek was expertly led by Bart and the kitchen crew and porters did an excellent job. We took an extra day which would seem to be rather more steady in approach and enjoyable. Although not a long trek in terms of days walking, it packs a lot in with glacier crossings and other adventures.
We never made it to Shimshal - a crucial bridge had been destroyed, which was unavoidable but
... disappointing. We were also unable to fly back from Gilgit (thanks PIA) and had a mega journey/adventure getting back to Islamabad on the Karakorum Highway!
I would expect to see the itinerary change in the future as the first few days are currently (IMHO) a bit weak (hence the rating) and could be improved with some more and longer day hikes.

High Tatras Trekking
High Tatras Trekking - The Carpathian Mountains

Jakub was passionate about the Tatras and cared about their management as a place of recreation. He took great care to ensure the safety of the group when terrain became challenging. His enthusiasm and good humour was infectious and he contributed significantly to the success of the trip.

Mountains and sunshine
High Tatras Trekking - The Carpathian Mountains
What a fantastic trip we had. Jacob was an excellent guide, encouraging and attentive in an understated way and he told us a lot about the mountains and the climbing history of them. The food in the huts was a suprise..... excellent and lots of it. And we enjoyed the choice of beers at the end of each day. The first two days felt a little slow. The bus to Zakopane was 2 hours 20 minutes and it felt like there was too much time in the town really, when I'd have preferred to be out walking. The ... rest of the trip was full-on though so maybe a slow lead in was needed. A well organised and really enjoyable trip in a stunning part of Poland/Slovakia which I recommend if you want to try a Hut-to Hut trip.

Never been disappointed by a trip.
Game Trails of Zimbabwe & Botswana Camping Safari

Great choice of trips, locations, activities. Really good before and after advice/support. Whenever I have needed to contact KE they have been helpful and given me the information I have needed or got back to me quickly.

Great holiday, all well described beforehand, exceeded my expectations. Cannot believe how much was fitted in to 2 weeks. Now got to sort out over 2000 photos.

Great walks to beautiful villages
Walking in Las Alpujarras
A great part of Spain to visit, beautiful country and villages, welcoming but not overly touristy. The walks were well planned - it was good to take the route from Trevelez down to Mecina, rather than the other way as some tours do. We did not receive .gpx files, which would have helped, but the written directions were good. All the hotels were very good, it was nice to have pools. Recommend the vegetarian restaurant in tiny Mecina. The local agent OtrosCaminos were very helpful. ... Consider staying on and making the bus-assisted climb of Mulhacen from Capiliera. It is hot walking in summer - best in the early morning and higher up!

The Great Southern African Lodge Safari
The Great Southern African Lodge Safari

I’m still buzzing - the landscapes, the animals, African skies, vivid colours, friendly people. Great trip. I have had two outstanding trips with KE, this and Everest Base Camp and each time the itinerary was thrilling, the guide exceptional and the help from, and friendliness of, the KE office exemplary.

Everything went very well from booking to the weeks walking.
Walking the Albanian Alps

Very good trip. Guesthouse accommodation was very different from what I expected, surroundings beautiful, staff great, food always abundant and good quality.

Consistently well organised itineraries with knowledgeable guides
Walking the Albanian Alps

Valentin was an exceptional guide. Extremely knowledgeable about the local area, able to adapt our hikes to adjust to changing weather conditions, and possesses a remarkable knowledge of Albanian history and culture.

Pleasant and helpful guide and crew
4000m Peaks of Morocco

Our guides cared well for the mules, did not overload them, adjusted their loads if they went lopsided, gave them good morning and evening, led them to the river for a drink, allowed them free grazing, replaced lost shoes and checked their legs. Very well organised.

Amazing care by the "support team". I felt like a 5 star guest!
Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route

I have been on several fantastic holidays with KE with great itineries and group leaders, really helpful office staff & very competitive prices. I have already been recommending KE. Our guide Saidi was fantastic and hugely added to the enjoyment of the holiday. He was very caring & careful with both us & his staff, but also full of fun with a great sense of humour. I felt very safe and happy in his care.

Another really good family adventure
Sri Lanka Family Island Explorer
Been on quite a few trips now, both as young person, with my family consisting of 2 kids and my mother. Chathuranga was probably the best guide, worked really well how he interacted from a 13 to 78 year old. Made it fun for the kids, taking pictures while rafting, yet keeping my mum cared and looked after who had to step back on a few parts of the trips, but associated with her due to their common interest in birds. Can see how his journey from driver to tour guide evolved, driven to be the ... best he can be, researching animals, birds, archaeology, then his own religious beliefs, cultural knowledge and are for the people and the planet, made it a very fulfilling trip for us all.

Fantastic trip!
Traverse of the Jotunheimen
An absolutely fantastic trip! Despite much of the 8 days being poor weather, our group had a great time. Our guide, Lerke, was very resourceful and managed to juggle our itinerary so that we were able to summit Galdhopiggen. Definitely a highlight! We did see some fantastic scenery and came home with a real sense of accomplishment of our efforts to make our way through the rocky terrain, wet trails and muddy bogs to the next hut. Lerke was a great motivator and offered lots of much ... needed encouragement to ensure we were successful. I would highly recommend this trip!

The Ultimate Fann Mountains Trek
The Ultimate Fann Mountains Trek

We were a well travelled group and Yun is the best guide we have had. He is passionate about Tajikistan. His knowledge of country (historical, political, economic,geographical, cultural) was incredible. He told us person stories too that helped us understand life in his country. Brilliant brilliant guide.

Amazing scenery
Self-Guided 2-Week Tour du Mont Blanc

Excellent communication before the trip, all travel and baggage transfer arrangements went very smoothly. Managed to find suitable accommodation even though we booked quite late in the season.
