Who is it for

Group size & who travels best

Solo travel

Strongly recommended for solo travellers — guided group tours mean instant company and qualified safety cover, and most operators offer single-supplement-free shared rooms.

Couples · Plenty of two-person guided departures; great for couples who like a shared physical challenge.

Friends · Brilliant for active friend groups — book a private guide and customise the route.

Family · Mixed — some routes are family-suitable (lower-altitude hikes), others are advanced only.
