Best tour group to do with?

Hey fellas, I am planning on doing the 8-day Lemosho route up Kilimanjaro in February, followed by a 2-day safari. I can only take 10/11 days off work, so that's all I can manage. I am 25 and pretty fit. I have done a few hikes before, but not too many at altitude (Salkantay Pass in Peru is my only real experience; however I did not find it difficult). I would like to hike with a group of similar age/skill level and I would be fairly budget, For the trek & safari together I would like to spend approx 3,500 euros at a maximum, this is not including flights. Any recommendations for the best tour companies to go with for this, or am I a bit too optimistic on the cost? I have been in a series of emails currently with Altezza travel who seem to be super organised, pay the porters properly and a perfect sounding trip, however it is coming to be really expensive. Any tips would be great thanks so much lads/

Hey everyone! My Master's Thesis explores how young Europeans interpret AI-generated geopolitical information. If you are:

  • European (from any European country)

I would really appreciate any response to this short (10-15 minutes max) survey! It's quite interesting and any response would be more than helpful. Thanks again!

Best company to book Salkantay with?

I’m looking to do the 5D 4N hike to Machu Picchu doing the Salkantay trek in late August this year, I’ve been doing loads of research on the best companies to go with and honestly I’m still confused, I’ve found Alpaca and booking them with getyourguide, and i’ve also found KB Adventures. KB seems literally twice as cheap but similar in terms of what they offer, does anyone know why there’s such a difference and what I should book? Thanks again! I’ve left links to both providers here:

Alpaca : Check out this activity on GetYourGuide! https://gyg.me/rlDx2EJv
