EverTrek Recensioni 

Our EverTrek Winter Skills training in Scotland was truly epic. It took me some time to prepare for it, to find good B2 boots, buy a few pairs of warm gloves, salopettes etc, but it was worth every moment we were in Scotland! The weather, the location, our guides and our team of Evertrekkers - literally everything was brilliant!
Aviemore Youth Hostel we stayed at was immaculately clean and convenient in all aspects. Huge kitchen facilities with multiple fridges, stoves and oven allow to cook and enjoy any meals in the way I do it at home. Showers were not overcrowded at all, very clean with a great hot water pressure. The only issue was that there were only 2 power sockets in our room for 6 people! Please take a multi-socket extension leads if you need to charge multiple devices!
There are plenty of good restaurants and grocery stores in Aviemore village, I especially enjoyed the Aubergine Casserole at Charcoal restaurant for the dinner.
Our Winter Skills training was led by two very experienced mountain guides from Wales - Smyrff and Dewi. We learned how to walk on the snow without crampons first, then how to wear and use crampons and ice axes, how to do the arrest in case of sliding down the mountain. The best thing of this course was that it wasn't just 'tick-the-box' type training, but our guides taught us how to constantly monitor the circumstances around and make a conscious decision based on the changing terrain or weather. We summited Cairngorm on the first day and Cairn Lochan on the second day. Two full days of learning and practicing the skills were extremely interesting and useful, especially in the beautiful winter weather we were truly blessed with.
We also did some navigation practice, which I was really keen to learn.
I can't say enough thanks to EverTrek team for their 24/7 support (Rosie, you're the star, as always!), to our guides, so knowledgeable and fun, and to our all Team - we were real yetis in this white snow desert!
Huge thanks to all once again for this epic and full of fun long weekend!

Great guides that are happy to answer any questions you have. Evertrek keep you updated at every stage.
We were lucky to have a group of people who were friendly and of the same pace. Will be doing this trip again.

Dear Team

I just wanted to get in touch and share my experience of my trip with you after arriving back home yesterday. I am sure you already heard that we had a 100% success rate of our whole team summiting on Sunday 11th February but what was even more special was that we ALL summited together, which apparently was the very first time this had happened for our chief guide.

This experience had been 10 years in the thinking and nearly two years in the planning and paying and can I say it did not disappoint in any way, I had the adventure of a lifetime. The whole trip was so well organised with access to ask as many questions before I went, the Tuesday tune ins and the information sent to me helped me prepare well, there was even more I could access but I took what I needed.

On the trip, the porters and guides truly surpassed my expectations and nothing was too much trouble for them. They really looked after us and when we tried to help, for example, packing up the chairs after second breakfast they were quick to take over. Silvano was our chief guide and Sieed the assistant. Silvano was at all times the upmost professional, he led and managed his 26 strong team brilliantly and when we invited the whole team back to the hotel to celebrate with us, (also a first for the team) he allowed this to happen but knew exactly when to draw the line on it. Silvano oozed leadership and gave us lots of confidence, many of the guides and porters became a part of our group, we sang and danced together, showed each other pictures of our families and would chat through the hikes and with lots of hand gestures and some help from those who spoke good English I chatted with them all.

The food and drink blew us away, the amount and the quality of food with the team understanding my vegetarian needs. Second breakfasts were the envy of other trekkers who we got chatting to who did not use Evertrek, don't worry, we passed on your details. The camp sites were always made as cosy as possible and the team went above and beyond with the mess tent to be welcoming with the table laid for meals including tablecloths and flowers, something none of us expected and the additional surprise of two chemical toilets for our team of 9 meant we got as much comfort as possible out there.

The team I was in truly bonded, with 7 men, me and one other lady, all with different levels of experience quickly formed a strong bond to be 'one team' as promoted by Silvarno. In our down times we would play dice or cards, sharing games we play with our families. The bond strengthened through the trip and we were so determined to do our very best to summit together, which we did achieve. I feel I have new friends forever now and we have already discussed a reunion for some trekking in the Breckon Beacons in Wales next year.

So all in all, as I return to work today I am struggling to focus as my mind is still on the mountain and I just want to share it with EVERYONE. - thank you Evertrek for an amazing adventure.

Best wishes

Killimanjaro is a once in a lifetime opportunity and Evertrek allowed me to summit providing the best advice and guides making the experience better than I ever hoped.

Evertrek host live Tuesday Tune ins which educated me to have the kit I needed and I’m pleased to say I was never cold on the mountain.
Evertrek gave great support by replying to emails via video they were so much more personable.
I didn’t make it to Tanzania when I’d booked my trip due to delays in Amsterdam Airport, Evertrek were so supportive booking me on the next available trip with ease.
When I arrived in Tanzania the transfers were easy and the staff at the hotel couldn’t do more for you.
The other hikers on my Trek were the best company and I’ve made incredible friendships.
The guides and porters totally exceeded any expectations. We were always top priority and they looked after us so well! With out them the challenge wouldn’t be easily achievable.

My whole experience was 10/10 apart from altitude sickness but that’s out of everyone’s control!

Evertrek put on a great weekend and the guides were exceptional. We'll put together and we'll worth the money.

Evertrek have to be the best trekking company out there. Just returned from an amazing 3 day winter mountaineering skills weekend in the Cairngorms. Outstanding training, leaders, experience and safety.

Perfect course in Aviemore on the Winter Skills Training! We got lucky with the weather in terms of getting to have a full experience in the Snow and wind which made it challenging but exciting! 😁
Highly recommended. Great great memories.
It has helped me with my next trip. Met some excellent people too.

Our Everest Base Camp Trek with Evertrek was brilliant from start to finish. During the preparation, the UK team were always on hand to answer any questions or queries. The Tuesday tune-Ins were a great source of info (and entertainment) too. Once on the trek, the team in Nepal were amazing and looked after us extremely well. They showed great care and attention to all the group during the trek and I cannot thank or recommend them highly enough! A fab experience!!

Everything, the Ever Trek staff were amazing from start to finish. Quick to answer any email questions I had, nothing was too much bother. The whole thing was a smooth process which just enhanced the trip. The porters were friendly and great at their jobs and the guides were amazing and felt like family by the end. Would recommend anyone who goes on a trek to use evertrek. I will definitely be booking more with them in the future. Thankyou for memories for life

What an amazing experience
Evertrek arranged our whole trip the guides were excellent and due to their experience we all made it safely to base camp and back even with an altitude of some 5300 meters
I could not recommend them highly enough and if anyone wants to discuss it or have a chat please don’t hesitate to ask

I summited Kilimanjaro with Evertrek and can not say enough about them or Zara Tours, the company they partner with in Tanzania. Everything ran so smoothly, and our trip leader (Silvano), guides and portes were absolutely excellent - fabulous food, very observant, kept everyone safe, all 14 of us summitted on 15 October and came back down safely as well. The whole trek was challenging, rewarding, hard, exhilarating, emotional, had to dig deep, pole pole (slowly slowly), beautiful. A real life ambition was achieved. We followed on to Zanzibar and had a few issues with our hotel but Evertrek sorted everything for us - big should to Lauren Carter. I would absolutely recommend travelling with them, and if you are fortunate enough to get Silvano and his team then that would be the icing on the cake.

Such a smoothly ran trip from the pre-info in the UK to everything on the ground in Nepal. Thank you for everything!

Climbing Kili has been on my list for several years and I'm so glad that I achieved this. Reaching the summit is incredible, but the six preceeding days were also fantastic and some of the best hiking experiences I have ever had.

The group leader for our team of 14 hikers was called Silvano. Silvano is an incredible leader for both us and his team of porters. His planning and knowledge of the mountain meant that all 14 of us managed to summit Kili. I cannot speak highly enough of Silvano's leadership and influence. If you are going to attempt Kili, I recommend that you try to get on one of the trips where Silvano is leading it.

The kit list provided by Evertrek is pretty accurate, but in addition do bring a thick down jacket, thick (preferably fleece lined) trousers and gaters. Summit night is extremely cold, but bearable if you have these pieces of kit. After the first day, the terrain is basically dust, so the gaters are a must.

A couple of other points
- the food is excellent and the mess tent is actually comfortable. I'm vegetarian and there was plenty of variety and options.
- bring US dollars. It's accepted everywhere and is easier to get hold of than the local currency.
- sort your maleria pills, jabs etc at home. But if you're planning to use diamox, it's 1USD from the pharmacy in Moshi, whereas it can be about £40 in the UK.

I have recently returned from Kilimanjaro- The Long Route. The trip exceeded expectations! The Springlands Hotel had a wonderful atmosphere and couldn’t do enough for you and we had a lovely few days either side of the trek to prepare and then relax.
I was so nervous about the trek and altitude, but the incredible leadership and positive mindset created by our wonderful chief guide Silvano, soon made me feel at ease and also ensured we all made the summit. He knew exactly how to prepare us and the whole team of porters, guides, chefs etc was amazing, always smiling and helping out. Plus an incredible eye for detail, always going above and beyond for everyone in the group. The organisation was just brilliant and the atmosphere created by Silvano and his team singing and dancing to keep spirits up will be with us all forever. Creating forever special memories and friendships.

Outstanding trip up to the summit of Mt Toubkal followed by some time around the the souks in Marrakech. Evertrek planned everything immaculately and having Evertrek’s own Andy and Dave along for the ride was an added bonus. If adventure or trekking holidays could be your thing then let Evertek arrange it all for you. Top class 👍

Just back from a fantastic trip to Morocco to summit Mt. Toubkal, from start to finish this was another great trip with Evertrek (my third in a year) where a top notch local team made sure everything was arranged from pick up at the airport to dropping us back at the end of the trip. The team was amazing and guided our party to the top and back successfully and made sure we were all looked after.. I cant reccomend Evertrek more highly!!..

Very well organised trip, couldn't honestly fault anything (except perhaps Andy's singing!!)
Guides/food/accommodation all top drawer.

Super company for trekking.
Great service before travelling. Wonderful guides when abroad.

I cannot recommend Evertrek highly enough. I have just returned from Morocco, completing Evertrek’s ‘Souks to Summit’ adventure! It was absolutely amazing.
The organisation, transfers, guides, food & accommodation, briefings & attention to detail was first class.
I was lucky enough to have Andy & Dave from Evertrek on this particular trip and the opportunity to chat with them at length, left me with absolutely no doubt that Evertrek is the best in this sector of the travel business and deservedly have won awards to prove it!
This is my 4th trip with Evertrek, having completed one of their training weekends in Wales, EBC & earlier in 2023 Kili.
Without exception, every trek was safe, well organised and massively enjoyable.
…If you’re thinking of doing an adventure with some high altitude trekking, there is no better company than Evertrek.

It's difficult to express just how good my recent trip to Morocco was with Evertrek. Every aspect of the trip was exceptional. On arrival we were met by our hostess Karima who was wonderful with us throughout our stay in particular in Imlil Lodge. The accommodation in Imlil was fantastic, comfortable and clean. The guides (Mohamed and Ibrahim) were great. Safety consuous but fun and enthusiastic as well. Sleeping arrangements at the Refuge were flexible so Evertrek had arranged that we had a choice to stay in tents or in the refuge itself (I opted to stay in a tent so as not to wake everyone in the refuge with my snoring). We were provided with excellent food in abundance at every mealtime. Bottled water was used on our trip as Evertreks water filters haven't been organised yet but they are going to be moving to filtered water very soon to avoid the use of plastic. We were encouraged to trek slowly and carefully, and as a result we had a 100% successful summit together. We had prearranged transfers back to Marakech where we again had lovely comfortable air-conditioned accommodation. The final flourish was that Karema was able to get us all into Dardar rooftop for our final meal together. What a treat dining while enjoying the sunset over Marakech with a fantastic group of individuals who I had experienced summiting Mt Toubkal with. Evertreks arrangement of all of this was brilliant. Completely hassle free and easy. We were able to just relax into it and enjoy the ride. Thanks Evertrek!! I'm looking forward to the next one!!
