Choose a Challenge Recenzje 

Genuinely the best experience ever. Perfectly planned, Rhiannon was such a laugh and had everything sorted so no stress on our behalf. Such a great group on the trip as well, we all got on like a house on fire. Would do it all again in a heartbeat!!

Loved the whole experience! The marathon was brilliant, the group was great and Budapest was a beautiful city to get to explore.

Really enjoyable trip, offered the right balance between giving us a structure whilst still having the freedom to do what we wanted too. Any issues (none of which were their fault!) were taken care of. Incredible experience, would recommend to anyone!

I had the incredible opportunity to embark on a journey to Everest Base Camp with the fantastic guidance of Manoj, courtesy of the "Choose a Challenge" company. I can't say enough about what an exceptional experience it was, thanks in large part to our remarkable tour guide.

Manoj was an absolute gem throughout the entire adventure. Not only did he possess an in-depth knowledge of the terrain, but he also brought a sense of humor that added an extra layer of enjoyment to the trip. His witty anecdotes and jokes lightened the mood, even during the most challenging parts of our ascent.

Manoj's patience was truly remarkable. He ensured that everyone in the group was comfortable and confident, no matter their experience level. His reassuring presence made every step of the journey feel manageable.

What stood out the most was Manoj's warmth and friendliness. He made it a priority to connect with each member of the group, making us feel like one big family. It was evident that he genuinely cared about our well-being and enjoyment. His friendly demeanor created a positive and inclusive atmosphere that made the trip even more memorable.

Manoj's efficiency in organizing the trek was impressive. He had a keen eye for detail, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Whether it was coordinating our daily schedules, arranging accommodations, or handling unexpected situations, he handled it all with remarkable efficiency.

This trek to Everest Base Camp was undoubtedly a life-changing experience. The breathtaking views and the sense of accomplishment were awe-inspiring, and Manoj played an integral role in making it all possible. His guidance, support, and positive attitude were invaluable throughout the journey.

I can't recommend Manoj and "Choose a Challenge" enough. If you're looking for an unforgettable adventure with a skilled, funny, patient, and friendly guide, Manoj is the person to choose. He made this journey to Everest Base Camp an experience of a lifetime, and I am incredibly grateful for his contributions to our incredible adventure. Thank you, Manoj!

Recently completed the Budapest marathon and was a great trip from start to finish. Our guide Rhiannon was super friendly and made the trip all go smoothly. Would highly recommend choose a challenge and this trip in particular, to anyone looking to complete their first marathon or looking for a PB!

Brilliant trip! Well looked after and the meals organised were good. Rhiannon was fab! 🌟 she was super at the airport on the way out. She deserves a special shout out! Choose a challenge was amazing

Had an amazing time in Budapest. Marathon was great. Support and organisarion from choose a challenge relieved stress and Rhiannon was a fantastic representative. She was brilliant! Will definitely do another challenge

Was a great experience, would definitely recommend!

What an experience!! Our group leader Rhiannon saved the day on various occasions and made sure we could enjoy the trip as much as we did. She dealt with a cancelled flight, lost luggage, organised activities and cheered all of us on during the marathon, waiting at the finish line in a cold and wet Budapest.

Would recommend 100%

had such a great time on the mountain. all of the porters were such great help and very supportive when i felt poorly on the mountain and had to come back down. Harry was very helpful when being at the hotel and made sure i had everything i needed when i was back down from the mountain. he was also very helpful in organising things for the group to do when we were in zanzibar. Had such a great time when i was out there.

The best experience of my life. Thanks to Choose a Challenge and WWF, I have been able to fulfill one of my biggest ambitions only for it to spark another. I’m not satisfied with EBC. I want to do it all. This is because of the opportunity to climb to EBC. I have made friends that I will always be in contact with, experiences that I have learned from and will always remember. I have learned a lot about myself and what my mental and physical capacity is capable of. This all happened because I checked an email - an email that I could have simply scanned by.

It only takes a spark to cause a fire.

Thank you Choose a Challenge, thank you WWF, and thank you team.

I went on the Kilimanjaro trip this summer and it truly was an incredible experience! The logistics were all well taken care of and the in-country teams always went above and beyond to ensure that everybody was safe and happy.

I would definitely recommend Choose a Challenge and an experience like this to anybody

The Peaks of the Balkans was really a trip of a lifetime. I had such an amazing time, all while making new friends and memories for life. Rhiannon our choose a challenge rep made the trip so much better, always ensuring we felt safe, supported and made sure the trip went as smooth as possible. I couldn’t recommend this company more, it’s allowed me to raise money for such a worthy charity as well as motivate me to do more trips like it x

I took part in this year's Colombia lost city trek with Choose a Challenge. What an experience! The guides were very helpful and helped keep us in high spirits during the trek. I would highly recommend this trek to anyone who wants a taste of adventure in a safe and caring environment. Mike from Choose a Challenge was a welcome member of the team and was on hand for any queries we had.

I had an amazing week trekking the Peaks of the Balkans. Our challenge leader Rhiannon was brilliant ensuring we were all looked after and everything ran smoothly during the week. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking about joining a challenge. Memories and friends made for life all while raising money for a great cause!

Choose a Challenge gave me the experience of a lifetime by sending me to Nepal to climb to Everest Base Camp. I was lucky enough to work with them raising money for WWF, both supporting a great cause and undergoing one of the most rewarding episodes of my life to date.

The people I met along the way, from the Choose a Challenge team, our guides and porters, the group I did it alongside, and especially Jules, our ICO in Nepal, were nothing but helpful, kind, and great fun.

I cannot recommend Choose a Challenge enough to anyone who wants to get outside their comfort zone and do good at the same time.

For me, the main thing was the people. There was great organisation from start to finish- I went with the booked flights package and it was nice not to worry about the admin side of things, on top of that when we were in the country, the help we got from our guides and the choose a challenge team was amazing. Big shout out to Jules who was our ICO for being so accommodating and making sure we were in the right place at the right time so that we could fly out to Lukla. The guides and porters were great people who, as time went on, we all really bonded and built lasting friendships with. Thanks to choose a challenge for such an amazing opportunity to immerse ourselves in local cultures and making sure that we had a fun and safe time in the mountains. I cannot stress enough how good a time I have had, mostly because of the people that I met.

I would strongly recommend choose a challenge to anyone! They even included a back up plan for if we didn’t make it to Lukla Airport, thankfully we did and our whole group made it to Everest Base Camp!

Special shout out to Purna Adhikari (guide) for his knowledge and assistance in the mountains (especially Kala Patthar as he was really motivating, even at 4:30am!!), also shout outs go to Prem Rai and Los Mon Rai (assistant guide and porter) for being so lovely to have along side us, playing games and getting involved in our jokes and activities!!

This was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. As a group we were incredibly lucky, with with all our flights not being cancelled, which at times, seemed pretty likely.
I could not give any improvements to the team in Nepal. All the guides were so friendly, which made us feel comfortable, creating a close bond between us tourists and locals.
With a group of 20, there was some challenges, due to there being a diverse range of physical abilities, but towards the end we had a system that worked really well.
I cannot express enough how much I enjoyed this trip. I would definitely recommend!

Before the trip itself there was some confusion with the English team regarding money etc especially with the fundraising. E.g. charging £170 to cancel my flight place which just wasn’t a necessary charge. Communication wasn’t great either and emails were sometimes incorrect.

HOWEVER

Once I arrived in Nepal, the ground team were absolutely fantastic and I cannot stress enough that the only issues I had were with the team in England. Jules, the CaC operator on the trip was phenomenal and worked his a** off to make sure we all had a brilliant trip. He was friendly and engaging and was great value to the trip.

The guides that work with CaC are amazing. Purna, Rodre and Frim made our trek more than just a walk to Everest Base Camp. They helped us to make it something we will remember for the rest of our lives and also gave me 3 new friends that I will never forget. The trip itself was smoothly run upon arrival and lived up to and in fact exceeded expectation, however the issues beforehand did put a slight downer on the review.

This refers to the communication from CaC re fundraising before the trip, or lack thereof and also the seemingly random bits of money needed for tasks which really shouldn’t have costed so much (plane ticket cancellation was originally quoted at just shy of £300?!?! I was told on email £170 so they stuck to that, yet another email mistake). There was an error in the guarantor contract I was sent as well, one that had I not noticed, my Mum would have had to fork out an arm and a leg completely unnecessarily.

I was also disappointed to find out that the guides food is not included despite 21 students paying so much money, I think CaC could afford to lose a tiny bit of profit for the staff to have their meals covered. That or make it an option for participants to chip in extra and cover as I’m sure we all would have done. Either way, the staff involved on the ground all deserve recognition from those above them at the company, they’re incredible individuals and they’re the ones who made the trip so amazing. So again, shout-out to Jules, Purna, Rodre and Frim.

An overall excellent experience and the trip itself was incredible, as I said just a shame about some of the communication from the team back home.

EBC TREK was unreal every detail was thought about and executed amazingly - the guides, the porter, the staff, choose a challenge reps were all wonderful espically when I was so poorly they took amazing care of me and made sure I was okay every second of the trek.

I can’t express enough how thankful I am to have been surrounded by such a family of people who truely cared for you and your experience the information and guidance was unreal you felt like you learnt so much about Nepal as well. A trip I will never forget and seeing baby rhinos was the cherry on top thank you to everyone involved
