I’ve travelled with Earths Edge three times now and would highly recommend them. The trips are very well organised and the local leaders have been superb!

I have now been on two trips with Earth’s Edge, Kilimanjaro and Mt Toubkal, both have been the adventure of a lifetime and I am looking forward to the next! One of the highlights of each trip has been our expedition doctor, Dr. Saira Butt, … More whose expertise and great company made the difference between a good trip and a great trip!

I’ve completed two expeditions with Earth’s Edge Kilimanjaro in 2019, and Everest Base Camp & Island Peak in 2025 and I would highly recommend them.The team were incredibly helpful, friendly, and supportive throughout both trips. Organisation … More was excellent from start to finish, and everything was handled professionally, making the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free.Both expeditions were unforgettable experiences, and I wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again.
