Walkers Tours Partner -- best trekking operator on earth

KE Adventure Travel, a British partner of Nature Odyssey (the adventure travel arm of Walkers Tours), was rated “Best Trekking Operator on Earth” by the prestigious National Geographic Adventure magazine, which recently carried out the world’s first study of over 200 adventure travel operators in their search for the best.

The study focused on which operators teach their clients about the places they visit, who pushes the frontiers of discovery and adventure and who gives back to the planet through travel. They also surveyed on interpretation, sustainability, quality of service and – the spirit of adventure.

KE Adventure Travel was named the BEST Trekking Outfitter on Earth. KE excelled in every area, even scoring a perfect 100 in the ‘Spirit of Adventure’ category, according to a statement from the Aitken Spence Group.

KE Adventure, together with Walkers Tours and Nature Odyssey, features Sri Lankan programmes in their Adventure, Family and Schools brochures.

The Adventure brochure carries a high adrenaline, cutting-edge programme, including several treks through uncharted and pristine regions.
