Follow Alice Bewertungen 

I would highly recommend Follow Alice to anyone looking to have a well planned, organised trip! We used follow alice for our trip to Uganda for Gorilla trekking. Our guide Joseph Chiwa was so understanding, patient and welcoming! He was so knowledgeable and went above and beyond for us. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a trip in Uganda!

The guides, Florence, Ah-hee, and Trever were excellent and professional. Not only that but friendly and courteous. FLORENCE personally coached and encouraged me from stella point to uhuru peak and helped me achieve my lifetime dream. I will never forget that. I thank and credit them with helping me succeed in the greatest adventure of my lifetime. Also, the porters,cooks ,and the rest of the support team deserve a big thank you from me for being so helpful and understanding. Great Job , all of you.

I took a 8 day Lemosho route Kilimanjaro hike in early March. Follow Alice, Robert (or Bobu) and the entire crew were excellent in keeping morale high and uniting our group as one. As a result despite our varying levels of experience all 10 members of our group summitted. The team never lost faith in my ability to complete the climb at any point and gave me every opportunity to safely finish. The Lodge was a great accommodation and the crew was professional, humorous, and uplifting throughout.

I hiked the 7 days Lemosho route with Follow Alice in february 2023. I was really impressed with them, from the start everything was very professional. In the planning phase they kept me well informed and answered emails quickly, before the trip they send you all the information you need for the travels including detailed packing list for the mountain which was really helpful. On the hike itself everything was incredible well organized, we had private toilets for the group, there are warm meals in the mornings and in the evenings and then you get a big packed lunch for the hike. The guides are professional and make sure everybody are safe and well on the hike. In conclusion I don't think I could have asked for a better company for this hike and I will recommend Follow Alice to anyone planning to climb Kilimanjaro.

My husband and I chose Follow Alice's 9-day trip, Best of Uganda, for the variety: safaris through the savannah, hikes to see the Crater lakes, the mountain gorillas in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, the chimpanzees in Kibale National Park and Lake Bunyonyi in a dugout canoe. Everything was very well organized and we were sent not only an itinerary but a packing list and important information. The trip was everything they said it would be, everything we expected - and more. Our flights to Uganda were rescheduled and we ended up landing in Entebbe at 3:30 a.m. instead of 11:15 p.m. We let them know as they were picking us up. They sympathized and said don't worry we will be there for 3:30 a.m. Our guide was there waiting with a smile. For the next 9 days he made sure everything went smoothly and we were happy. We learned a lot from him about the wildlife and birds, the environments and the culture. The guides in the National Parks were also very knowledgeable and enjoyed sharing their knowledge. Uganda is truly a beautiful country with lots to see and explore. Crater lakes, zebras, giraffes, antelope, water bucks, impalas, lions, leopards, baboons, monkeys, gorillas, chimpanzees and more. All of our accommodations were exceptional, beautiful views, good service, clean and comfortable with all amenities but our favourite was Mihingo Lodge. Built to impact the environment as little as possible, it was absolutely beautiful. Solar-powered luxury in a natural setting. Imagine going out of your cabin in the morning and seeing baboons going by or impalas crossing your path when you head to the dining room. And the staff!! Truly warm and friendly, excellent service. Tea or coffee delivered to your cabin in the morning before you head down for breakfast. We have great experiences and people to remember. Nothing at all negative to say. I highly recommend Follow Alice and the 9-day Best of Uganda tour.

We hiked up Kilimanjaro in February. We took the lemosho route and stayed the lindrin lodge before and after the hike. The overall experience has been amazing. Our head guide was William Bwenje and our assistant guide was Msafiri. The guides were amazingly well versed in the terrain and conditions of the mountain. They helped navigate and motivate us throughout. William would check in with us every step of the way and made sure we were acclimatising well. On the final summit day the guides were instrumental in ensuring that we succeeded in reaching the summit.

The gear, tents and equipment were excellent and well maintained by the team. Follow Alice has great attention to detail and they ensured we didn’t face any hassles along the way. Even in the worst weather conditions they made sure we were comfortable and dry.

The food on the entire hike was key to keeping our strength up. They cooked up some amazing soups, French toast and pastas and stews.

Overall 5/5 for team Follow Alice.

My husband and I climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro via the 8-day Lemosho route with Follow Alice in February 2023 and had an amazing experience. We chose Follow Alice because it seemed to be a company that treated its employees well, was priced reasonably, and we really liked that it was co-founded by a former Kili guide! The whole process from initial enquiry to the end of the trip was totally seamless and everyone we interacted with from the admin side was super nice. As for our actual experience on the mountain, the crew was absolutely superb. We were a group of 4 with a crew of 21. James and Alex were our guides and we could tell they were always keeping a super close eye on how we were doing and genuinely cared about our safety and success on the mountain. James in particular also had a wealth of knowledge about the history of the mountain, the vegetation, and Tanzanian/East African history, and we really loved learning from him. The porters also took amazing care of us and their superhuman strength was truly inspiring! I would be remiss if I didn't also highlight one of our helping porters, Rama, who was just the kindest person and really made us all feel like family. All 4 of us ended up making it to the summit and enjoying the most breathtaking views along the way. I cannot recommend Follow Alice highly enough and also really recommend the Lemosho route -great views and great acclimatization! When we came back we had one extra day, and Chris was kind enough to help us book a coffee/waterfall tour totally last-minute. If you love coffee and have a half day to spare, this is a can't-miss stop.

James is an professional highly skilled Mountain Guide who is constantly evaluating the terrain, weather and the client hikers to ensure everyone has an optimal experience. Highly recommend James to everyone!

We had an amazing experience with Follow Alice and I have already started looking into other experiences to use them again! They provide a class act service, are KPAP compliant and very good to their porters, they invest a lot in training their guides who are amazing to insure your success to the summit. They put your safety first and become family throughout the journey. Without any hesitation, I highly highly recommend Follow Alice!

I found Follow Alice online and chose them because it felt they had a personal touch other companies did not. I was impressed with their communication and their tools/lists for preparing for the trip. Our guide Tony and team for the 9 day Northern Circuit climb was excellent and I only have compliments to offer for their guidance and performance. I personally asked them if they liked working for Follow Alice and they stated that they were the best company they had worked with. I will definitely consider more expeditions with them in the future!

I did quite a bit of research before choosing to travel the Lemosho route with Follow Alice. They were absolutely wonderful, from the organization of the trip, answering my endless questions on through the hike itself. They had so many resources that I felt confident about what to bring, how to prepare and what to expect. I can’t say enough good things about our lead guide, William Bwenje. He was so knowledgeable and helpful throughout. He made sure that we stayed safe and happy. He also told stories that were entertaining, but also shared information about wildlife, culture and life in this part of Tanzania. I had heard before leaving for this trip that others had less than satisfactory food, so I wasn’t expecting much. But, Hassan, our cook prepared the most delicious, healthy and satisfying meals imaginable. Rama and the others were so friendly and made us feel we were among family. Due to illness, I didn’t summit, but Bwenje organized things so I could descend safely without interfering with the ascent of the other travelers. I would definitely travel with Follow Alice again!

I went to Lemosho Route with Follow Alice and I couldn' t choose better. They literally follow you step by step, telling you all you need to know. They care a lot about safety, they are precise and organize everything, every member of the team was polite, well prepared and they work as a team so that every single moment they take care of you. I would definitely recommend Follow Alice if you want to get on top of Kilimanjaro.

I chose to do the Norther Circuit with Follow Alice and fell in love, not only with the mountain but with the people.

The 9 day Norther Circuit in December-January was perfect - yes, for the acclimatization but actually I enjoyed enormously the beauty of a non-crowded, pristine landscape and nature. I'm a solo traveler, fit but not an experienced or technical climber. The route was very much to my abilities and this gave me the chance to enjoy more the mountain and the people. The crew was incredible - always positive, smile and joyful. Extremely hardworking so also here I'd like to give all of them my thanks. As head guide we climbed with Crossmang - very organized, transparent, patient, professional, sincere even in the harder moments. I very much appreciated his leadership along the way, as well as stories and educational facts, and most of all, the Swahili lessons every afternoon :)

Gideon, Rama, Choosey, Ali, Pascal, Leocadia.. all all of the people with us were special and contributed greatly to a wonderful team and experience.. and reaching a dream :) You would be in good hands, do not worry!

There is enough rest, enough food, enough information for you to just let go and enjoy a unique climb. I would join Follow Alice for other experiences too, without a doubt.

The team was present before, during and after the climb, providing all information (and I'm a bit of a pain..so - much appreciated 😀). I truly enjoyed also the website, full of soso much valuable advice, as well as the YouTube videos.

The 5-day safari with Kazi was a "holiday" gift after the summit :) It was my first safari ever and I am really happy I chose to do it and see Tanzania from a different angle. Kazi was always fun and knowledgeable and really devoted to showing us as much as nature can offer :)

Thank you all and I hope to see you again one day!

Overall, it was great. Thank you to Justin, Tash and Tine for all the pre-trip help-being so responsive to so many questions, helping the research process go so smoothly. Thank you to Crossmang, Gideon and their great crew for a wonderful 9-day Northern Circuit trek, the latter half of which I was unable to complete due to health complications. I am so appreciative, nonetheless, of the care and thoughtfulness they showed me in helping me descend safely, checking in on me in recovery and Chris including me in the final event once the hike concluded. (I may just need to return sometime and actually make that summit!) The 5-day safari was fabulous. Thanks so much to Kazi for making it so informative and fun - what a learning experience. I strongly and enthusiastically recommend the Follow Alice team! Thank you!

Follow Alice were absolutely superb, from the organisation before the trip to the support during the trip. The whole team were incredible. Woke up every morning to plenty of smile and laughs. They were so helpful and friendly. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

One of the best companies I have had the pleasure of dealing with. Went above and beyond for every element of the trip and made it a truly unforgettable experience!

Tine was great to deal with in terms of booking the 7-day Lemosho route. Follow Alice has so many resources that it was easy enough to prepare for the hike. The crew made sure we were well-hydrated and well fed, and they took care of moving our stuff from one camp to the next. At one point, I had help with my daypack on summit day. The lead guide, Tony, and his crew cared about everyone being safe and making it to and from the summit in one piece without any injury. It was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend using Follow Alice. Everything went according to schedule, and Tony gave us comprehensive information about what to expect on certain parts of the hike.

Definitely the best decision to choose Follow Alice for our climb to Kilimanjaro. Since first online contact throught the zoom call and final meeting with Chris and head guide Tony under the mountain. As my friend Peter already said about our issue with lost baggage we probably never reach the top without big help and support from whole your team guys. Thanks a lot for everything it was great time spended with you guys we appreciated. Keep doing it, you doing it well!💪🏻

Choosing Follow Alice was probably the best choice we could have done.
Whole group went well beyond their responsibilities.
Turkish airlines lost our luggage on the way there and they were not able to deliver before our hike started. Follow Alice immediately came with the plan, they borrowed us equipment and managed to pick up our luggage and deliver it to base camp on 4th day. Only because of this we were able to got on the top.
But even without this, all services were top. Food was amazing, porters were friendly and skilled, guides were fun and experienced
Thank you follow Alice for wonderful experience.

Peter our guide and the whole Follow Alice team did a fantastic job showing us the incredible sights of Uganda, organising all the trekking permits, even for my 14 year old daughter to spend 2 days with the gorillas and a day with the chimps. Peter looked out for us all the way and was a walking Oracle about Uganda, it’s history, it’s people and their culture, including finding us somewhere to watch World Cup matches. Thanks for a truly memorable trip.
