KE Adventure Travel Traveller Reviews

Fantastic with a brilliant guide and group.

I had very high expectations before I left for my trip, but landing at the Paro Airport in Bhutan, flying between the high Himalayan mountain peaks, blew those expectations away. From the first day to the last day, our tour guides were amazing, and our entire staff went above and beyond to ensure that everything that was needed, and wanted, was taken care of. We were incredibly lucky to have had beautiful weather, with only one or two days of rain, and the views of the passes, valleys, rivers, and mountains could never be fully captured in a picture. I 100% recommend to anyone willing to sleep in a tent (a very comfortable tent, though) to go on the Snowman Trek with KE. The food was delicious, the staff was so nice and friendly, both our guide and our assistant guide were very knowledgeable and responsible, and I promise that you will not regret going on this trip. One tip would be to bring chocolate with you though, if you, like me, have chocolate cravings, as it is very hard to find in Bhutan. Other than that, bring a camera with a ton of storage, because there are endless supplies are amazing photo opportunities.

Namgay was absolutely incredible as a guide. He has completed the Snowman Trek 12 times, and has done countless other treks and tours. He is extremely knowledgeable about the trek, as well as all cultural aspects that we came across. He was easy to talk to, and was always willing to put in any extra effort to ensure that we had everything we needed, and wanted, in order to be comfortable and happy.

We spent about 3 days walking in Lake Como. The weather was changeable, thankfully our Guide played around with the itinerary to avoid the worst of the rain and we enjoyed walks overlooking the Lake. After that we caught the Bernina train to St.Moritz, where we would spend another 4 days. The train journey was a rest day since the walking was fairly strenuous 9am- 6pm for the previous 2 days. Among the hikes in St. Moritz is a trek to the edge of the Bernia Glacier.The trip was great, wonderful views and good company.

The Tour Operator was KE Adventure. Their website was very good and covered most aspects of the trip. When further details were required they were very helpful on the phone and also organised an extension of an extra 2 days that we requested.

I undertook the 13 Day trek from Lukla to Everest Base Camp and back - an unforgettable experience.

Ke Adventure were a joy from booking right through to completion of my trek. They took away all the stress that could be added on these treks and really helped me in having an experience of a lifetime. I honestly loved the fact we were staying with locals, eating with locals and our trek leaders were born in the Himalayas. The leaders gave us a real insight to Sherpa life, culture and history and were just the cherry on top of an incredible trek. I cannot wait to trek with KE again and could not recommend this company more.

Croatia is a beautiful country and this holiday provided a wonderful chance to sample a variety of landscapes and scenery- from limestone canyons, shady beech woods, beautiful lakes and waterfalls. The walking pace of the holiday varied from day to day, including some fairly gentle terrain, some steeper up and downs and a short scramble on a rock face using wire and bolts. The accommodation was welcoming, comfortable and mostly above expectation. I even managed a dip in a hotel swimming pool! The accommodation highlight for me was the night spent in a mountain homestead. Food included in the trip was excellent and varied. There was always plenty on offer and we were able to make our own suggestions for picnic delights! Our guide could have been a little more " tuned in" to the needs of slower-paced members in our group of nine, though his knowledge of the footpaths and organisation of timely transport pick-ups and speedy Hotel check-ins was second to none. Overall, this holiday was a real gem and excellent value for money. ,

Wonderfully organised and helpful. Extremely accessible. Everything ran like clockwork. Brilliant service and good value for money.

Truly outstanding trip.

Can't fault KE Travel's organisation - very special trip!

Holiday with excellent variety of scenery and natural history interest.

Small independent. KE Adventures.

I loved everything about this holiday to Malawi and Zambia. With a winning combination of wildlife experiences, hiking in a lesser known (but spectacularly beautiful) mountainous region and chilling out at Lake Malawi at the end, it is just right for someone who wants to be fairly active but doesn't want a holiday subsumed with physical challenge - and who enjoys wildlife too.

KE Adventure is a specialised adventure tour provider which is meticulous with its holiday planning and the information that it provides to those taking a trip with them. Everything is taken care of carefully, so that itineraries are thoughtfully planned and even dietary preferences are managed well - even if these conflict in an extreme way within a group. I have a long list of KE holidays that I want to get to, 2 down, about a hundred to go!

Comments as above. Only negative is the food quality in the hotel needs improving.

Very helpful and knowledgeable about the area.

This trek passed through some of the finest mountain scenery in the Alps. The scenery frequently changed particularly as you passed from one col to another. The treks attained altitude of around 3000M on several days and the quality of the huts, hotels and food that KE arranged was first class. Fran, the guide, was passionate about the mountains, maintained a pace that was comfortable for the group and ensured the safety of the group at all times.

KE has a long and proven track record of organising treks all round the world. They maintain high standards and employ excellent staff and guides. I would definitely trek with KE again.
