Expeditions:

Our expeditions are very small scale, normally taking place once a year to adventurous mountain locations around the world. We don't advertise our trips but invite existing clients who have undertaken other courses with us. Each expedition will have a higher than average pre-requirement and be in small group sizes. Expedition members are hand picked to ensure that the team is of an equal ability as much as possible and to make sure we all have fun in safety!

I lead these trips and organise the logistics, accommodation, local staff etc. My business is not set up as a tour operator and so I don't book flights on clients behalf and I will ask clients to pay for accommodation, food and travel direct to the local suppliers. This avoids me having to hold clients money and take out any form of bond. The advertised prices are normally inclusive of accommodation and food to make your budgeting easier. When you book the trip I will let you know how the payment needs to be organised and keep it as simple as possible for all concerned!

On all of these expeditions the usual terms and conditions of booking apply so make sure you read them before committing to the trip.

On each expediton we will hold a pre-expedition training day. This allows you to meet other people joining you on the expedition and to undertake any specialist training such as ascending fixed ropes or eating spicey food!!
