About Follow Alice

Written by the company



Follow Alice was born on Mount Kilimanjaro. During their trip to the roof of Africa, Swiss childhood friends Reto and Daniel met Chris from Tanzania. Together the three developed a daring and exciting plan: build a modern boutique travel company sustainably run by travellers, for travellers.



Today our portfolio of small-group adventures also includes hiking to see rare mountain gorillas in the dense jungle of Uganda and trekking through the mighty Himalayas to reach Everest Base Camp, among others.

Each of these beautiful, bucket-list trips are managed by a dedicated trip manager as well as an experienced Follow Alice local leader on the ground. In this way our clients are looked after at every step of the journey, including the planning phase. And you can know that you will be kept entirely safe in the host country. This allows you to focus your energies on conquering actual mountains, not those made of travel admin!

Clients can choose between scheduled departures, where you’ll be placed in a small group with fellow adventure-loving souls, and bespoke itineraries, where you can tailor-make a trip according to your interests and passions.

A blend of international experience and local expertise works to make Follow Alice both a cutting-edge company while also ensuring it engages in sustainable tourism. For instance, Follow Alice is the first adventure travel company to allow clients to pay for trips with cryptocurrency! In terms of sustainability, 70% of each trip price remains in the local economy, which is very important. We’re also committed to being fair employers and doing our best to protect the precious environments that make up our destinations.



Every single Follow Alice trip is meticulously designed and organised to give you a seamless and once-in-a-lifetime experience! 🌍

I've taken two trips with Follow Alice

I've taken two trips with Follow Alice, both incredible. First in 2019 to Sardinia, and recently to Nepal, Everest Base Camp.

Follow Alice trips are very well organized, and allow you to focus yourselves. In the Himalayas, we were able to enjoy the views and focus on the experience instead of having the cognitive load of "where are we going to sleep? How much does this cost? Where do we buy poles and sticks?". Our guide, Angelou was incredible and helpful, and the trip itself was an unforgettable experience.

I would recommend signing up with Follow Alice to make this and any trip.

Uganda with friends

My friends and I have just come back from Uganda and this country have stolen out hearts.

They say that Uganda is the pearl of Africa but it wouldn’t have been the pearl of Africa without our guide Simon and all the team of follow Alice.

We just could spent one week but we would have liked to stay at least 10 days.

Everything was very well organized to get the most of our trip. (Thank you Michael, I know that it wasn’t easy)

Even if time was short we could do all activities that we wanted: rafting, chimpanzee habituation at Kibale forest, gorilla tracking at bwindi forest, night game drive and horseback safari at park national Mburo, ambare caves and falls.
We could also share our time doing some activities with people from different communities, it was a pleasure to learn so many thing about their way of living.

Thank you Simon for being so generous with us
and sharing and learning us so many things that we will never forget.

According to accommodations they had amazing views and services, all people from staff were adorable.

We will comme back for sure!

Thank you so much again

Everyone was very experienced and professional. Thank you so much to the guides and porters that got up that mountain. An unforgettable experience! And do the Lemosho route! Believe the hype!

8 day Lemosho

We hiked the 8 day Lemosho route and it was just awesome!
It started with the whole booking experience, Justin (our trip manager) did a fantastic job. We got answers within minutes, always! And also the local team in Tanzania, everything was perfect and well organised, starting by the equipment we got and finished by the delicious food we got through the whole trip and everything in between.
The biggest thanks to the whole Follow Alice team for this once in a lifetime experience.

Kilimanjaro Trip

I could not thank enough the whole Follow Alice team for my recent Kilimanjaro trip, they are simply superb. I am truly touched with their kindness. Justin, our trip manager was very helpful with all pre-departure preparations. Not to mention, local team leader, Chris is a great leader; he is very transparent and sensitive about everything. He managed the team very efficiently. Everything was so perfect and well organised from Day 1. Am very glad I met all those beautiful people, Rama, William, Ricardo, Abed, Haz, Pascal, Justice, Pablo and Trevor. I will remember my trip to Kilimanjaro for the rest of my life.

7 day Lemosho…

We’ve just got back from 7 day Lemosho route….we had the most amazing time!
With Covid getting In the way and delaying our trip, Tash has been excellent throughout at keeping in touch and reassuring us!
We knew the experience would be fun… but the team we had taking us up the mountain have made our time away unforgettable. The kindest group of hard working people who went totally above and beyond. From ensuring the facilities were clean and tidy to providing tasty high quality meals and snacks throughout the day.
We would 100% recommend Follow Alice…. An excellent company who will really look after you!
We Can’t thank you all enough…..

11 Days in Uganda

We recently took a trip to Uganda with Follow Alice and had the most wonderful adventure! From day 1 the communication from Michael was great and very clear, he amended the itinerary to suit our needs and timeframe and squeezed in all the excursions we wanted covered. We were met at the airport on arrival by Simon, our guide and driver for the entire trip. Simon was a brilliant guide who has a lot of knowledge of Uganda, he kept us comfortable and safe throughout the trip and was always kind, fun and helpful - we can't thank him enough for his great service! Our highlights were seeing the chimps, gorillas and array of wildlife on the various safari experiences we had. All of the places we stayed were comfortable and some were very unique with amazing views, our favorite accommodations were Turaco Treetops and The bush lodge. After such a great experience we can safely say we will be returning to Uganda in the future and will 100% book other adventure trips with Follow Alice!

Amazing Adventure…

Follow Alice is an amazing company to work with. In the planning phase Tash was great,. She built a completely custom itinerary for us including the climb and a Safari, and made several recommendations that made our trip even better. Once in country Chris was awesome. He took care of us every day we were in Moshi, he even helped me get a haircut and shave between the climb and safari.

As for the climb, we did the Northern Circuit over 10 days, our guides William, Robert, and Safiri, and the whole crew (30 total) did a great job. The weather wasn't awesome but they did everything they could to make us comfortable and see that we had a great time. On a personal note I would not have made summit day without William and Roberts constant encouragement. The food was great, I miss the cucumber soup already. I can't imagine a better crew to have climbed with.

After the climb, doing a Safari for 4 days was a great addition. Our guide Kazi did an outstanding job getting us into tons of animals every day. I highly recommend spending a night or two in the Serengeti at the tent camp we stayed at. Nothing like hearing Hyenas calling right outside your tent at night.

And finally while in Moshi there is no better place than the Pink Flamingo boutique hotel. Theresa and Alejandro are wonderful hosts and it was a paradise to come home to in between our other adventures.

8 day Lemosho

We hiked the 8 day Lemosho and we walked away being thrilled that we had booked the trip with Follow Alice. James, Gideon, and the entire group made the entire hike a fantastic experience. In talking to other hikers on the trail who did not have quite as good an experience, it is because of James and Gideon's friendliness to my wife and I that I recommend Follow Alice to anyone who asks about our trip.

The food was delicious, especially the hot soups after the hikes. Every single need was met by the team and they did so with smiles on their faces the entire time.

Incredible 10 day trip to Nepal

Incredible 10 day trip to Nepal - followalice was fantastic to take care of all the admin part to make sure we got in and out of the country very smoothly despite changing and unclear covid rules. Zero worries for our group.
Also was really comforting to have a guide that has summited many 8k peaks, including Everest multiple times! All the staff were incredible and made our trip so smooth and perfect. Thank you!

Perfect 8 day EBC and Mt. Kalapathar with Follow Alice

Follow Alice organized a perfect 8 day hike to EBC and Mt. Kalapathar. From excellent phone support and immediate e-mail follow-up at booking to Airport Pick-up / Hotel logistics in Kathmandu to, what I believe, to be the very best Guides! -- Follow Alice was an excellent choice and made an experience that far exceeded my expectations!

Daniel was excellent on the phone and by e-mail. Everything was booked and all answers to question were made within 2 days of correspondence. They are pro and know the Nepal region. The Follow Alice ground staff in KTM was flawless and very accommodating.

When we arrived in Lukla, the Sherpas were ready us -- and our Porters took over the bags! I have heard repeatedly that Angelo was their best guide! I can not say enough for our other 2 sherpas! They not only guided us up the mountain, but I believe their attitude contributed greatly to our successfully reaching EBC and Mt. Kalapathar.

During our hikes, our guides never said hurry up. They only said... Choose your pace. There was always plenty of time to reach our next destination... so we never had to push hard to jeopardize acclimatization, or overwork to any point of discouragement. On the return, we had no issues with the arrangements for thehelicopter (what an experience!!!)

Follow Alice came up with an excellent team, no doubt!!

Please do not hesitate to book with Follow Alice! The experience and value, for us, was unique!

Amazing Uganda-Round-Trip

I did a trip with Follow Alice around Uganda and it was amazing. Michael did a great job putting together a nice route to all kinds of different spots and organizing everything for us. He took all our wishes into account and adapted the trip accordingly. The selected lodges were perfect with very friendly staff and nice food. Our local guide Simon was a great guide and driver on the bumpy roads. We were very lucky to have him as our guide because he was always motivated to make the trip most memorable for us.

I saw and experienced so much in Uganda and am really impressed by the beauty of this country and the friendliness of the people so I can recommend everyone to travel there as well. I will definitely go back again to see more of the Pearl of Arica.

Thanks to Follow Alice and Simon for letting us have an unforgettable experience in Uganda.

Great experience, amazing organization

Amazing experience, 10/10. Thank you Follow Allice to make the trip an unforgettable memory. The guides, the pace, the tips, the teahouses, everything was perfect. We were a group of 8 friends and we all managed to reach Kala Patthar (5,600+m). It all started with a perfect organization and coordination of international flights since most of us were coming from different countries. We all had the chance to get a 'rest' day at the beginning in Kathmandu which allowed us to adjust to the time different and do a bit of cultural visit. Once we started the hike, the guides ensured that we were all enjoying our path, and chose the perfect number of days to ensure we were all properly acclimatized. The teahouses were as well great, we were able to properly recover and enjoy our afternoons in the common areas. Totally recommended to those that love the mountain and nature. Will definitely trust in Follow Allice for all my next trips. Thanks team!!

Amazing Everest Basecamp Trek with Follow Alice

THANK YOU Sonam, Ang Gelu, Ghoumba and all the other amazing people in the Follow Alice team for this memorable adventure on Mount Everest. We did EBC trek with Follow Alice in October 2021 and it was just perfectly organized from A to Z.

Starting with the booking & preparation for the trip (thank you Michael!) to arriving in Kathmandu and managing all the logistics and Covid-19 documentation all the way to having an incredibly experienced, kind and knowledgeable mountain crew during the trek. And the helicopter flight at the very end.. what an amazing way of ending this adventure with stunning views across the Himalayan mountain peaks!!

I can only highly recommend Follow Alice to everyone that considers travelling to Nepal - you'll be in great hands! And please do consider visiting Nepal, it's such a fantastic country with the best people and the most impressive mountains I've ever seen.
