Together we can achieve great things...

We are not a package holiday company nor a holiday agent. We offer unique expeditions off the beaten track that are challenging and remote. Our expeditions are designed to push you and generate an environment whereby everyone must come together and work to achieve a common goal. This is done with the help and support of an amazing team of local guides, porters, cooks and drivers. Your safety and comfort is always at the forefront of their minds.

A lot of our expeditions are in remote environments with inherent risks. Everything in the lead up to your expedition is designed to prepare you to for this and to prepare us to keep you as safe as possible. Our guides are the best in the industry and put a lot of work into minimizing the risks and providing a fun and enjoyable experience.

.. alongside the fun, we were constantly aware of your vigilance with safety. This wasn’t the worst of environments, but it nevertheless has its risks and we felt totally confident that risk were known and managed

We have found that as an expedition team develops it morphs into a cohesive and tightly knit group who embrace the adventure and do what they can to help the expedition reach it’s goal. Like a machine the team is made up of many different parts, people from very different backgrounds from many different countries who do what they can where they can to support each other. The machine is not well-oiled from the start but after the team has gelled everyone finds their role and lifelong friendships are formed.

This year Pride Expeditioners have climbed the highest mountain on the African continent, trekked around Mont Blanc, rafted and trekked in Slovenia and Nepal and Morocco. All of our teams have been made up of people who are Gay, Lesbian or support our ethos that it does not matter who you love! If you want to go to any country and climb a mountain or raft a river you should be able to do so and be yourself. Our Tanzanian guides, our Nepali guides our Slovenian guides are there to keep you as safe and as comfortable as possible and will not discriminate against you based on who you love.
