This trip was magical. The location, the crew, the group and the guides all added something significant to make this a trip of a lifetime. Summit day was the most difficult for me but I felt so well supported at all times. Even though it was tough I never doubted I would make it. I remember our lead guide Tobias kept turning around and giving me such words of encouragement and strength. It was in fact all of the little things that made this trip unique. The attentiveness to details and personal connection from the local team made me feel at ease at all times.
This was a huge personal and physical goal for me. The trip fulfilled all that I was looking for.
Thank you Chris, the local team and my fabulous British men 🙂

If you are looking to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, you would want a well organised trip, with an experienced crew, great communication and the highest chances of summiting safely right??

From the first interaction with Chris at Global Shenanigans, to hitting the summit and getting back to the airport, you couldn't ask for a better experience.

We were in a small group of four who summited on 9th October with Chris and the team. Chris picked us up at the airport and guided us through the next 12 days with a warm up trip to Chemka Hot Springs, some local eateries and onto the main event.

The team he put together to get us to the top were amazing. They looked after us, guided us, cooked us great food, sang to us and became our friends.

A truly amazing experience to remember for a lifetime.

Thank you Chris!

My second trip of 2025 with Chris / Global Shenanigans and what a truly amazing experience.
From the very start Chris exceeded expectations explaining what we were to expect and how to prepare . Communication throughout was top notch until the final execution which once again was superb.
The support from Chris and the wonderful support team that looked after us on Kili was amazing and I cannot thank them enough for their all round encouragement and commitment.
Finally my wonderful trekking buddies , thank you for making this a truly wonderful 2 weeks . You all created memories of a lifetime.
Here’s looking forward to 2027 , cya at Mt Blanc.

Loved it so much I’ve already booked another kayaking trip with Chris!
What a trip… couldn’t recommend it more. Absolutely stunning clear water and epic views, loved the expedition set-up of carrying all our own gear and camping on our own private beaches each night. Each one different and special in their own way, but all equally magical. And the STARS… wow!
Chris was a patient and confidence-boosting guide with a lot of expertise and stories to tell. I had barely any paddling experience prior to this but felt well supported throughout. (Though I would recommend maybe having a go before booking a trip or at least having a fairly good level of fitness as it’s pretty physically tiring but SO worth it.)
Chris links up with local companies and the Croatian team were all great! Our local guide had a lot of knowledge and kept us fed and safe from storms! And the head honcho was a legend who even cooked for us an arrival and farewell dinner in his own home! Was a really special part of the trip!
Thank you Chris and everyone else. Such a lovely group, which made the beautiful scenery and the whole trip even more enjoyable!

What an amazing adventure, more than I hoped for in so many ways. Chris was fantastic company and expedition leader making it exciting and memorable. The scenery was spectacular and the other people on the trip were all so much fun. I can’t recommend taking this trip with Chris enough.
