Follow Alice Arvostelua 373

I completed the Everest Base Camp trek with Follow Alice in October 2025, and it truly was an incredible experience. From the first contact to the follow-up after the trip, everything was smooth, well organized and genuinely friendly.

The team in Nepal was fantastic. Sonam, our contact on the ground, was always available, helpful and professional, and he made us feel confident from the very beginning.

Our guide, Dawa Sherpa, was outstanding! He handled every situation calmly, whether it was changing our flight plans due to weather or finding the best accommodation. I had a few difficult moments on the trail, dealing with period cramps, kidney pain and altitude headaches all at once, and he supported me with patience and care. He never pushed taking unnecessary pills, but focused on the right pace, proper food and staying warm. Seeing other groups on the trail made me realize how lucky I was to have him as a guide.

Our porter, Amrit, also deserves a big thank you. I really appreciate the weight limits Follow Alice has in place. I saw porters from other companies carrying extremely heavy loads and it was hard to watch. Amrit walked with us comfortably and even stayed with me when I was slow or feeling off. Meeting his family and Dawa's along the way made the experience feel even more special.

Finally, thank you to the Follow Alice operations team — especially Puru, as well as Michael, Craig and Jess. Your support made a huge difference.

Follow Alice, you are doing an excellent job. Thank you for an unforgettable journey! :)

What an amazing trip. Our guide Dawa was amazing. Caring, personable and full of information. Looking after us as a group and individually. Felt like he really cared. We were lucky with the weather until the end when it turned and now flights out of lukla. Sonamg was top who sorted us helicopters there and back, not only saving us a couple of days hanging around(and a 5hr trip either way on terrible roads) but also organsied us some sight seeing in kathmandu all at only a slight expence. The hotel in kathmandu was wonderfull and the staff there were also very attentive. All in all it couldnt have been better. It is etched in my mind as one of the best experiances ive had. I will definately look to them for further adventures

I have just returned from EBC trek in Nepal with Follow Alice, which included helicopter return to Lukhla.
This adventure of a lifetime exceeded all of my expectations! What an amazing experience.
Pre-trip guidance from Puru was excellent, our guides Dawa and Ferba were knowledgeable, caring and fun. We were well looked after on the trek and Sonam G made sure all of the logistics happened when it was needed most. A massive thank you to the whole Follow Alice team.
I cannot recommend this trip and Follow Alice enough.

I have just returned from an unforgettable experience trekking to Everest Base Camp with Follow Alice. I was very impressed with the team, starting with Puru who was incredibly responsive and made sure all questions were answered and that we were fully prepared for our trip. Dawa is an experienced and excellent guide who ensured he kept a close eye on us all as individuals, whilst mentoring Furba (the assistant guide). Thanks also to Sonam for bringing helicopters into our lives when we most needed them! The meals, teahouses and additional bits of sightseeing really added to the whole experience. I have no hesitation in recommending Follow Alice for this trip!

I have just returned from Nepal after completing a trek to Everest Base Camp with FA. The whole trip was very well organised with good pre-travel advice from Puru and a great guiding team led by Dawa. Also a special shout out to Sonam in Kathmandu who managed to sort out helicopter transfers at very short notice when the weather turned against us.

I couldn't be happier with my experience on the Lares and 2-day Inca Trail trip. I wanted to hike to Machu Picchu but was also looking for something a bit off the beaten track, which is exactly what I got! Mario, our guide, was a local and knew the Lares area like the back of his hand. He was also fun, personable, extremely knowledgeable and highly experienced. He really made the difference between a good trip and a great trip.
The porters and chef/cook were amazing. We had sit-down three course meals when hiking and the food was incredible. So fresh and tasty. Having our own private port-a-loo at our stops was first class!
I was impressed with FollowAlice's pre-trip coordination/communication and their attention to detail during the trip. This was my first trip with the company but it definitely won't be my last.

I climbed Kilimanjaro, participated in safari and enjoyed Zanzibar with Follow Alice as a company and Lucy Lofton as a trip organizer. Thank you to the entire team for your patience before, during and after the experience. All the best! Angie

I've just finished my third trek to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, Tanzania—a 9-day journey along the Lemosho Route with FOLLOW ALICE.

I cannot stress enough how this company truly goes above and beyond for its adventurers. Our group consisted of eighteen friends and coworkers, ranging from seasoned hikers to beginners, all united by our goal: reaching the summit.

The support we received from the Follow Alice team—both their office staff and ground crew in Tanzania—was outstanding. Meera, our Tour Coordinator, was endlessly patient and kind. She kept us well prepared with packing lists, Zoom calls, WhatsApp chats, and answered countless questions. Thanks to her, we arrived in Tanzania ready and confident.

Before climbing, we enjoyed a few local excursions, and on the eve of our hike, we got an extensive briefing from Chris, our Head Guide, and met his assistant guides. We discussed every detail of the route, picked up rental gear, and grabbed our wonderfully cozy sleeping bags.

Across nine memorable days, we faced plenty of challenges, shared laughter, and pushed through tough moments. Our guides and porters buoyed our spirits with humor, encouragement, and practical advice. Their constant care kept us feeling healthy and ready for each new day. The guides rotated leading duties, so we really got to know them, and our porters always greeted us at camp with clean tents, tea, and popcorn!

Mealtimes were a treat—the food was impressively varied and tasty. Dietary needs within our group were accommodated effortlessly. Evenings ended with refilled hot water bottles to keep us warm and cozy overnight in our sleeping bags.

Since tent camping is essential on the Lemosho Route, I recommend bringing a small tarp for the tent entrance to avoid tracking dirt inside and a tent lamp (we used a solar Luci lamp), which is handy for early sunsets and early mornings.

Some of my favorite memories come from waking up to tea or coffee and a bowl of hot water for face washing and brushing teeth—the ritual affectionately known as "washy washy."

In the end, eleven of us reached the summit, while those who chose to stop along the way were cared for by our guides and returned safely to the lodge in Moshi. They joined us at the final gate so we could celebrate everyone's achievements together.

I had the trip of a lifetime on my Mount Kilimanjaro climb and 2-day safari tour with Follow Alice! This was my first time traveling solo, and I was admittedly nervous at first — but the team made everything so easy. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and every detail of the trip was well organized. The guides were knowledgeable, encouraging, and so much fun to be around. I could not recommend Follow Alice enough for anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure!

My second trip with FA (Inca Trail in May 25). This trip was the Kenya safari adventure following a few days in Zanzibar. Amazing on all levels - the safari took in Samburu (where we were fortunate to see a leopard with its kill) and all the Samburu unique wildlife. The Mara safari was the final part of the trip but after we had had a boat safari to Crescent Island (where we had a walking safari within touching distance of zebra and giraffes) and visits to Sonali (rhino safari) and Retiti (elephant sanctuary). Mara was incredible and the final day balloon safari ended with sundowners within 10 metres of a pride of lions (inc 6 cubs). Incredible trip, seamless organisation, top notch hotels, vehicles and drivers. 100% recommended

My fiancée and I just got back from a 2-week safari and Zanzibar trip with Follow Alice, and honestly, it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The communication before and during the trip was great super responsive and the whole team was so kind and really cared about making our trip special.

Our safari guide, Allen, was AMAZING. He always seemed to know exactly where to be, and because of him we got to see the Big 5 (and so much more). That part of the trip blew us away.

On top of that, they helped us plan our wedding ceremony in the Serengeti, which was beyond anything we could have imagined. It was perfect.

The second half of our trip in Zanzibar was incredible too. Everything was arranged for us transfers, flights, pickups and we never had to wait on anyone. The places we stayed were beautiful, and the whole trip just flowed so smoothly.

This was by far the best trip we’ve ever been on, and we’d recommend Follow Alice to anyone thinking about going to Africa. Huge thanks to the whole team you guys are the best!

I had such an amazing experience with Follow Alice doing the Inca trail! My guide Greco was amazing, he taught me so much and him and the team couldn't do enough for me. The communication from start to finish was fab, the team were always so quick at replying to my emails and whatsapps. I recommend the Inca trail to anyone! Such a beautiful experience, thank you everyone at Follow Alice :)

We had a fantastic team supporting us all the way along the Northern Circuit to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. The team met and exceeded all our expectations from setting up and taking down our tents, carrying all the kit, catering delicious food to guiding us in the best way possible to make sure all of us, including our two sons aged 17 and 13, could make it to the top. Very memorable!

I highly recommend Follow Alice hands down to help you climb Mt. Kilimanjaro.

Everything was organized so beautifully right from the start including the info sessions, airport pick ups, and the Follow Alice staff was amazing.

The trip would have not been possible without our excellent porters and guides that helped set up our tents, cooked meals for us, filled our hot water bottles, brushed the dust off our shoes, carried our day packs and many more duties.

Our 8-day Tanzanian Safari is awesome! We did private gaming drives in Kruger before but I would say this one with Follow Alice is amazing!

I wanted to experience the Great Migration and was choosing between Kenya and Tanzania. Michael is very helpful in guiding me in the itinerary and the booking. Given my very busy schedule, he made it easier for me. I also love the itinerary. We were able to maximize our 8-day exploration. We experience the best of Tanzania! Can't get enough of the wildlife encounters and watched phenomenal river crossings, watching herds of wildlife up in the air thru the hot air balloon just like using a drone camera! Just wow!

Our daily game drives are equally stunning! 2-thumbs up to our safari guide and driver Peter! With the 8 days that we were together, we were like a family.

Of course not to forget Meera who guided us in all the preparations! My husband and I were actually clueless but she made it easier for us!

Kudos to you, Follow Alice team! Will definitely recommend to my friends! Looking forward to more adventures with you guys!

My dad and I had an unforgettable trekking experience to Everest Base Camp, all thanks to the incredible team at Follow Alice. The organization was flawless from start to finish. Special thanks to Puru for overseeing everything so smoothly and to Sonam, whose outstanding on ground logistics saved the day by arranging helicopters when planes weren't flying.

Our guide, Dafuri, was phenomenal, he's summited Everest twice and shared insider stories that made the journey even more special. The ultimate highlight was the privilege of visiting an insider tent at Base Camp, courtesy of Dafuri

The entire trip exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend Follow Alice for their professionalism, expertise, flexibility and attention to detail!

My trek and tour in Bhutan was magnificent. The Follow Alice team made the experience seamless and incredibly special. My guide, driver and trek team were experts who facilitated one of the most life-changing trips I could ever dream of. If you are considering a trip with Follow Alice…just go!

Our team of 15 lovingly known as “15 Shades of Altitude” and also dubbed the “Pole Pole Party” completed the 8-day Lemosho Route in October 2024 with Follow Alice, and the experience was nothing short of phenomenal.

From the early planning stages all the way to coordinating our transport back home, the Follow Alice team demonstrated exceptional care, organization, and professionalism. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, and it was clear that they genuinely love what they do.

A huge shoutout to Tony, our incredible head guide, whose leadership, encouragement, and warmth inspired 13 of us to successfully summit Mount Kilimanjaro. His team of guides, porters, and crew made us feel safe, supported, and cared for every single step of the way. Their passion and positivity were contagious—and unforgettable.

Our amazing group of climbers included: Liza, James, Riccardo, Emanuela, Massimo, Ruggero, Edoardo, Mauro, Karl, Charlotte, Ronnie, Sahari, Emily, Christopher, and Jon. It was a diverse, spirited, and fun-loving crew that bonded over every step, snack, and summit push.

There was never a moment where we didn’t feel in good hands. I can honestly say that making it to the top would not have been possible without the unwavering support of the Follow Alice team. Climbing Kilimanjaro is a major challenge, and it truly takes a village. We are so grateful to everyone involved—from the guides and porters to the behind-the-scenes organizers who ensured everything ran smoothly, one team, one dream.

Not only did they guide us up Africa’s highest peak, but they also celebrated us in style—three birthdays during the trek, including Liza’s unforgettable 40th, complete with cake, candles, and sparkles at altitude! And don’t even get me started on the food, we ate like kings and queens the entire way. Who knew you could have gourmet meals on a mountain?

If you’re thinking of climbing Kilimanjaro, stop thinking and book with Follow Alice. I wouldn’t dream of doing it with anyone else. They’re simply the best.

Follow Alice made my trip to Peru an absolute crazy adventure but I will treasure every moment. There was 13 people in our group, which was a large group, but it never felt as if it wasn’t a personal tour. Our guides Marco and Arturo were so knowledgeable about any question that was brought up. If you are looking to find a tour company that knows how to curate a once in a lifetime experience while still keeping safety and knowledge on the top of mind, I would 1000% recommend Follow Alice.

This was my first trip with Follow Alice. I can honestly say it won’t be my last. The company set forth and executed a seamless plan while we were hiking through the mountainous area in Peru. From our guides, to the porters, everything was flawless. It was the toughest adventure I have ever done. I look forward to my next one.!!!
