Highly professional, super responsive and nailed it in terms of our expectations. And their people were their real differentiator - best quality and super hosts.

Uganda is an incredible country. The people are very nice. The landscapes and the immersive experience into the forest and jungle is extraordinary. If you are a nature lover this is the best experience. Follow Alice organice us an excellent trip. All the activities, the Accommodations, our excellent Guide Peter... we recommend Follow Alice for sure!!! The best experience ever! Thank you so much

I recently returned home from a trek in Nepal and have had some time to think back on my experience. Nepal is an amazing place and the people are kind and honest. The culture is rich, diverse, and ancient. I could have sent my whole time there just sightseeing but I was there for trekking.
Due to the normal chaos back home, it would have been extremely difficult to ala carte this trip. Fortunately I choose a company that did it for me and without hassle.
Once I arrived I was greeted in the early hours of the morning by the kind face of Sonam Sherpa, the local facilitator. He squared away anything that arose which allowed me to relax and play the tourist.
As the trek progressed I got to know my guide, Lhakpa Rita Sherpa. I found that he’s deeply familiar with every aspect of the region, has tremendous knowledge of the culture and history, is physically and mentally equipped to deal with adversity, and has the demeanour to make the whole experience a positive one. If there was one aspect of this trip that made it, it would be Lhakpa Rita.

Bonjour a tous ceux qui veulent vivre une belle aventure en Tanzanie.
J'ai vécu cette belle experience avec mon fils du 17 jusqu'au 25 septembre pour effectuer la route Lemosho.
J'ai contacté Follow Alice car j'avais constaté que les porteurs et leurs personnels sont respectés (ce n'est pas le cas malheureusement dans toutes les agences).
Le premier contact mail avec Follow Alice fut super car ils repondent tres rapidement a toutes les questions possible. Justin qui fut mon correspondant a été super reactif, encore merci !
Arrivé a l aéroport de Arusha notre navette F.Alice nous a conduit via un super hotel nommé lindrin lodge et le lendemain 17 septembre nous avions le premier briefing.
C'est Christopher (responsable F. Alice) accompagné du guide nommé C.P et un assistant guide nommé Gideon avec qui nous avons fait le premier contact et les derniers details de préparation.
Le lendemain,le 18 septembre le fourgon arrivait avec tous les porteurs et l'aventure commencait vraiment.
Le guide (C. P) et tous les autres membres de l'équipe furent au top par leurs générosité, bienveillance et nous avons été dès le debut en confiance pour vivre huit jours inoubliable.
Au retour avant de rejoindre le lindrin lodge nous avons pu faire une halte a un magasin avec des produits uniquement produit en Tanzanie, ce qui est génial pour tous.
Je ne raconterai pas tout car vous devez le vivre par vous même.
Je dirai simplement que Follow Alice nous a offert un guide, un assistant guide, un cuisinier et des porteurs exceptionnels.
Les repas était divin (encore mille fois merci hassan et à Mamahino), un grand merci à Ali qui etait contament disponible et a nos soins. Merci aux porteurs toujours souriants, grâce a eux tout est possible.
Merci a Innocent qui fut assistant guide pour le pic uhuru.
Si vous avez la chance de faire cette aventure avec cette équipe. 1.Non seulement vous aurez beaucoup de chance d'arriver en haut grace a l experience de C.P, Gideon et Innocent car ils sont tres pro et humainement super.
2.vous aurez un confort materiel(tente, duvet et réfectoire au top)
3.vos repas seront un vrai plaisir et c'est très important avec les conditions difficiles de la montagne.
4.vous vivrez une rencontre avec des tanzaniens qui vous laissera un expérience humaine exceptionnelle.
En partant, faire ce voyage je ne soupçonnais pas vivre autant de belle chose et je me dois de remercier Follow Alice car ils furent les organisateurs exceptionnels de cette aventure.
Merci Justin, christopher, le fameux C.P et Gideon puis Hassan, Ali, Mamahino, Innocent et les 12 autres personnes d'exception.

Climbing Kilimanjaro, 8 days Lemosho route in August 2022. FOLLOW ALICE was amazing. Right from the start. Justin was excellent, everytime I sent an email he replied straight away. Our guides (William, Justice, Wilhad and Trevor) were amazing. All the porters were so friendly and very helpful. The food was amazing, I looked forward for the hot soup every evening 😋. I have nothing negative to say about follow Alice. Fully recommend. Everest Base camp is on my backet list and will definitely use Follow Alice again. Thank you for making my adventure so memorable 💖

Jambo,
Just over a week has passed since I, (75 yo) and my two sons (39 and 42 yo) have returned from our trip to the Roof of Africa – Kilimanjaro. For me, it was a dream and number one item on my bucket list, ever since seeing IMAX film “Kilimanjaro” in 2002. And who best to accompany me than my sons.
After lots of research, training and preparation we set out on our journey to fulfill my dream. We selected to go with Follow Alice for number of reasons. Their web presence is excellent, they have well produced video clips on YouTube and their PDF files available for download are excellent. Right from the start we were assigned a trip manager, Justin van Wyk who was very helpful in every aspect of our trip preparation and completion.
Once we arrived at JRO we were driven to Lindrin Lodge, an oasis of comfort, tranquility and good food with wonderful staff. The following day we set out on our adventure by driving to Lemosho Gate and formally meeting our 18-person crew of 2 guides – Msafiri and Steven, cook Choosie, waiter Rama, personal porters, Clinton being assigned to me, and porters with other functions among them.
Our 8-day Lemosho Route was tough, yet beautiful with its varied landscape types as we progressed slowly higher and higher.
Our final push to the top took just over 7 hours. Once on top and to my amazement without any symptoms of Acute Mountain sickness, we were rewarded with beautiful views of the mountain, glaciers and way, way down towns and villages surrounding the bottom of this magnificent mountain. While taking our pictures my son announced as he pointed at me – “My father, 75 years old, prostate cancer survivor, double hip replacement recipient”, there was a round of cheers and applause from about 30 people on top of the mountain.
I want to give particular thanks to our guides Msafiri and Steven for their expert and patient guidance. They made the whole climb possible, enjoyable and rewarding. Thank you Choosie for excellent, varied and plentiful meals on the mountain – we were constantly amazed at how you managed to produce such wonderful and tasty meals for 8 days. Big thanks to our waiter Rama, always cheerful and helpful.
And finally, huge thanks and admiration to our porters, all wonderful men (and 2 women). They are the true heroes of our Kilimanjaro experience.
In conclusion, we were very happy with the way the whole trip was organized and carried out. We would definitely recommend going with Follow Alice to anyone.
Asante!

We were with Follow Alice for about a month, through 2 countries and 3 different experiences: the Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route, Serengeti safari and safari across Uganda. The planning and booking process was when I could tell we had made a great decision to travel with Follow Alice. Michael answered my many questions and helped tailor our trip to fit our needs and dates without hesitation. Everything was laid out for us, and we were walked through all the steps we needed to take on our own (visas, etc.). All other aspects of planning were taken care of for us, and really made us feel like we were in good hands. As someone who usually plans our trips, and rarely relies on travel services of any type, I can wholeheartedly say Follow Alice provides an exceptional product and exemplary service.
Planning and prep can only take you so far though, and I am equally impressed by Follow Alice's staffing. Each person we interacted with both from a virtual standpoint and on the ground was magnificent. Everyone was kind, thoughtful, helpful, was well prepared, and made smart adjustments as needed.
On Kilimanjaro, Justice, Jerry, and M'Safuri kept us safe, happy, and the whole crew kept us well fed and well taken care of each day.
During our Tanzanian safari, Karim was absolutely fantastic and led us so well through a packed 5 days. We learned so much and were able to see so much due to his immense knowledge and skill as a guide. We are very thankful for that experience.
We are equally thankful and impressed with Peter, our guide across Uganda. He taught us so much, not only about the plant and wildlife across the country but the history of the country as well. Having the historical backing made each experience more powerful as we knew what it took to get to these points in Ugandas conservation journey.
We are very thankful for our adventure with Follow Alice and felt it was worth every penny. We'll Follow Alice again for sure! Here's hoping they start offering safaris in India (hint, hint)!

Cheers,
Thomas and Shannon

We had a wonderful time on the 8 day Lemosho trip with Follow Alice.

Tash and Justin were incredibly well-organized and prompt responders. They did a great job making my travel partner and I feel comfortable in pursuing the trek. I enjoyed their pre-trip zoom calls, their fast/thoughtful responses with tons of options, and their general organization.

When we arrived in Moshi, we were greeted by Chris and Jerome. They had tons of rental gear so we didn't have to buy/bring much of our own, which was really helpful. Would recommend renting daypacks, down jackets, warm pants, etc. if you don't have it.

The entire Follow Alice team was incredible, and we would not have have made it up the mountain without their care and support. Jerome is a phenomenal leader, someone who is thoughtful, kind, and caring. Olaph and Francis were great assistant guides, bringing in energy and leadership. We loved when they sang on summit night as we were trekking in darkness. William was a wonderful host, someone we could rely on for good vibes and care. Peter consistently cooked filling and nutritious meals (it was incredibly how quality of food he was able to create on the food). Finally, I can't say enough good things about the entire porter team. Godbless, Abeid, Evance, Eric, Derek (and the many more that supported us!). They were all phenomenal, carrying an incredible physical and mental load while also doing the hikes at double the pace we were. They always greeted us with welcome smiles and great energy, and our experience was truly enhanced and enriched because of everyone on the team. From initial reach out to summit to descending the mountain, everything was incredibly well organized and thought through.

Hiking Kilimanjaro was one of the hardest things that we've done (physically and mentally). It was only possible because of the Follow Alice team. In fact, I'd argue that the Follow Alice team is what made this experience monumentally fulfilling and enjoyable. Thank you!

We did the 8 day Lemosho route with a group of 5 and we could not be happier! We all summited and it was one of the most memorable experiences of our lives.

We were picked up by Chris and Ruben and taken to the comfortable Lindrin Lodge.

On the day we left for Kili we were greeted by the lead guide Jerome and assistant guides Francis and Olaph. These guys are absolute legends. Jerome is such an amazing leader and he made sure to take care of every single person in the group and also the crew. He was so generous and kind and always put our safety first.

Francis and Olaph, the secondary guides were equally incredible and these guys are exceptional at their jobs. What was really very commendable was that our group had a variety of fitness levels and how easily the guides adapted to accommodate everyone and to help us all the summit together. All three the guides became family and we will cherish the time we had with them.

The porters. Words cannot describe the respect we have for them and how efficient the crew managing all the equipment, our personal toilet, tents and food up the mountain. The porters hiked all the way (in half the time) with us and pitched our tents and prepared everything by the time we got to our daily destination.

Every morning we were woken up by the lovely William who was responsible for all our water needs and serving our food while also having porter duties. A wonderfully friendly and happy human being who made our day, every day.

The food. Peter our chef was incredible. It will be difficult to find food like what we received on the mountain, in most local restaurants, like the food he prepared for us. We had 3 meals every day, made with love and without his valuable contribution we would not have been able to have summited. He catered for our vegetarian friend and everyone loved the food. It really exceeded our expectations.

There are so many more people I’d like to thank on this journey like the dishwasher, our personal porters John and Rama and so many more. We had a great time, made so many memories and a lot of new friends who became family on Kilimanjaro.

Thank you Follow Alice. We will be back.

There are not enough words to express how awesome this company is. We did the 8 day Lemosho route followed by a 5 day Safari. From the beginning Justin was a great resource. Quick to respond, helpful with all our questions, and responsive to all our concerns. Once in Tanzania we stayed at a great hotel (Lindrin Lodge) with the most welcoming staff. On the mountain we had not just a prepared team, but a team that was driven by our success. One example that stands out is, after we summited our waiter Rama was waiting for us, jumping up and down and giving us huge hugs. It didn't feel like a job for them- they really reveled in our triumph.

Our guides Tony and CP were beyond crucial for to our success (please keep them leading climbs!!). They seemed to have a sense of exactly what we needed exactly when we needed it. One thing I wasn't expecting is how much I learned about Tanzania. Tony and CP explained the history, colonization, independence, current affairs, all while supporting us on this incredible journey. We had 28 support staff for our team of 6 and there was no one person I could say a bad word about. You really spend so much time with everyone, and sometimes they see you at your worst. I felt so comfortable the whole time. Once off the mountain we had an awesome safari guide Yona who's energy made you think it was his first trip but whose knowledge was clearly gained through tons of experience. We saw all of big 5 while learning about local tribes and and conservation efforts. I'm already trying to find a way to fit another FollowAlice Adventure into 2023. My only advice would be to bring more cash then you think you need. We didn't realize that some of the hotels only take cash and luckily we were able to find some ATMs on the way!

Follow Alice was really good, the guides were absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond to take care of us, the food was brilliant, really healthy and tasted fantastic. I can’t thank the guides and porters enough as I don’t think I would have made it without them. They made the whole experience fantastic and unforgettable. I would definitely recommend this company.

We had an amazing experience climbing Kilimanjaro with Follow Alice.

The guides and porters were professional, considerate of our needs, personable and fun- also with a great sense of humour. The food was absolutely excellent, varied and plentiful.

The Follow Alice team did so much for us and made it an unforgettable adventure. Thanks so much to everyone in our team.

We definitely recommend this company for climbing Kilimanjaro- the communication and information before the trip was also great and put us very much at ease before arrival.

Climbing Kilimanjaro is an unforgettable and amazing experience- do it with Follow Alice.

This was a lifechanging trip. We reached the summit with the best crew ever, thank you Florence, Francis, Alex, Olaf, Innocent, Rama and all other 48 people who made this dream reality. You are all wonderful, friendly and inspire us in order to reach the summit. Hope to see you again and share with you new adventures. Much love!

We had an amazing time on Kilimanjaro with Follow Alice - their communication, preparedness, and expertise both before and during the climb was top notch! I highly recommend to anyone who’s considering climbing Mt Kilimanjaro, go with Follow Alice!

My son and I just got back to the U.S. from an 8 day Lemosho experience. The equipment, food, and friendly helpful staff made the climb a trip of a lifetime. Special thanks to the team leaders James and Cross and their awesome staff. Don’t be mistaken this is a real climb physically and mentally, but all said and done worth it.

Climbing Kilimanjaro with Follow Alice was a genuinely special and unforgettable experience. I don’t think anyone can have climbed with better guides than Jerome, Justice and Msafiri. I felt completely safe in their hands and lucky to spend a week in their good company. All the porters as well were amazing - especially Raja and the kitchen guys, the food was always such a treat :)) I would really recommend this company, I’m gonna look out for them wherever else I go. Watching other groups climb at the same time we felt consistently so glad to be with the people we were with from follow alice. Lots of love to everyone there and I hope to see you again!<3

The Follow Alice team were amazing from start to finish.
The booking stage was very straightforward, we were given all the information and help we needed very quickly and clearly. The climbing team were incredible - they looked after us perfectly throughout the whole trip - we couldn't have asked for a more skilled, knowledgeable, caring and good-humoured, fun team. Thank you very much.

I had been wanting to hike Kili for years, and now that the pandemic has subsided, finally went through. I am so happy I found Follow Alice as a guide company — they helped me achieve my dream of summiting the mountain!

To start, Follow Alice gave me all the information I needed before the trip to really be prepared. Tash and Justin were super communicative, really helping with accomodations, recommendations, etc...

As the trip got underway, I could not have asked more from the guides — they were super friendly, knowledgeable, and understanding with our needs. Our main guide, Tony, even offered me his waterbottle when my water-bladder broke on day 1! What a guy.

But the real hidden stars of the show were the porters — they work like no others! They were super nice and helpful for the whole team and we couldn't have done the trip without them. From managing the portable toilet to setting up our camps to cooking great mountain food, these guys were legends.

Overall, I had a wonderful trip and would recommend Follow Alice 10/10 times to anyone looking to hike Kili.

Everest Base Camp - breathtaking experience. We had the great pleasure to embark on the mission of a lifetime with the great team of Follow Alice (FA) and their local hosts Sonam, Sonam and Nima! The tour was organized to every detail and FA made sure that there was nothing to be missed. Our guide Sonam and Nima took great care of us, especially also in moments when we didn’t feel great. We are 100% sure that we wouldn’t have made it without them! Thanks a lot to the entire team. We highly recommend FA, we now did two excursions together (EBC and Kili) and we are sure to do the next one again with FA!

Wow! What an amazing experience with Follow Alice that I won’t forget. I did the 9 day Northern Circuit route and we always felt well cared for. Our guides were Robert, Gideon and Alex - I probably wouldn’t have been able to do it if it weren’t for their patience. They brought great vibes and loads of laughs, even during the toughest parts of the climb. The entire crew was also incredible - from the cook to all the porters - we couldn’t have asked for a better team.
