Our walking and trekking adventure holidays range in size from a minimum of 4 people and a maximum of 12 people. Adhering to group sizes minimises the environmental impact and allows everyone to get to know each other in a relaxed and friendly manner.

Adventure holidays come with demanding days, specifically whilst trekking at high altitude. As our guest’s safety is imperative, we limit the ages of our trekkers to a minimum of 14 years and maximum of 75 years. Additionally, travellers over 65 need to meet the requirements of our insurance provider and are required to pay an increased premium.

Trip prices are typically quoted per person and generally include transfers to/from local airports, ground transport, meals, accommodation (based on two people sharing), trip leader/head guide and local support crew including drivers, guides, cooks, porters etc (and other porterage as detailed in the trip itinerary). 

Safety on our adventure holiday trips is of the utmost importance, and a key area influencing this is the size and quality of our support crew on the mountain.  Our trip prices include for a full quota of senior and junior guides, cooks and porters according to group size, and for all paid at least the park’s recommended wage rates. 

Our trip prices do not include travel insurance,  single supplements or any requested extras, incidental drinks and any hotel/lodge refreshments, snacks and meals not detailed in the itinerary, National Park fees not detailed in the quote (sometimes to be paid to us separately in addition to the trip price), tips, cost of passports or visas, personal medication and vaccinations, phone calls, souvenirs, laundry, clothing & equipment required for the trip, excess baggage, any local airport &/or departure taxes collected at the airport.
