Choose a Challenge Reviews 

A once in a lifetime experience which the company made really special. The guides were so supportive and the accommodation provided was great. Met loads of cool people and couldn't have done it without CAC!

Completed the Three Peaks with Mike, absolutely fantastic experience. Quality food provided and breaks given when needed. Initial hostel was lovely and coach was comfy as well. Will be doing another challenge next year!

Such an incredible experience that I never would have done before if it wasn't so well set up and accessible at University.
The whole thing was really well organised from the very start to the very end.
The actual trek was amazing, the guides did everything they could do for everyone to get the chance to get to the top despite it being so challenging. The local guides help us loads and spoke good English. Everything was set up as soon as we reached camp with all meals cooked for us (it is amazing what they can cook somewhere so remote). The views are amazing and I am so glad I did it all! Most people seemed really happy with it all - Thank you so much for this experience.

Thank you so much.

The Guides Being One of the Best Parts of Morocco Atlas Trip June 2024

This whole trip from the moment it started to the moment it ended was planned perfectly, with everyone's comfort in mind. Before the trip we were all told the level of fitness and the equipment we will need to be able to fully enjoy the trip.

One of the best parts of the trip has to be the guides in Morocco, they were very useful and selfless to any one of the trekkers who had a problem, providing snacks, water, and carrying bags when people were struggling. But their best feature was their ability to boost morale on our University trip. We were met by Omar (the main guide), who was an absolutely lovely person who was always so fun and interesting to talk to during the trek, because of his most advanced knowledge in English (and Spanish too), it was easy to talk to him and learn of the traditions and lifestyle of the Berber communities. We were also met by Ibrahim, and Sa'id and other wonderful guides who were always the 'life of the party' when we were at camp, ranging from chanting songs and getting us to dance, telling us jokes and teaching us both arabic and berber words. Our group would do Yoga every night, and the guides, despite never doing it before, would join us to try it out. They would always boost morale during the treks, by making jokes or starting conversations.

What I'm trying to say is that the trip itself is a 10/10 in terms of views, the trek itself and the accommodations. But with the guides provided it made it an 11/10, they made the trip just that little bit better, to the point I wanted to make a whole review based on them alone :)

A group of 27 of us were taken through the Atlas Mountains with a group of incredible guides, all locals with great English who really made an effort to make sure we all felt accommodated for. Every night we sang songs together with the guides and danced despite our exhaustion after long days of trekking, everyone was always happy. On the last day some of the group experienced altitude sickness and Omar, one of the guides, stayed behind from the trek to make sure they were taken care of. When I was tired and left dinner, Omar came to my tent to check I was okay, offering potential support for the following day. We all could not have felt more safe, optimistic and fulfilled after this experience! It was an amazing group of locals brought together in by this organisation

Mike and Ryan were incredibly accommodating looking after the injured participants and created an incredibly fun atmosphere. The guides were unbelievably professional, providing great advice while hiking and continuing to add to the fun atmosphere.

The team leaders, Ryan and Mike made the whole experience very enjoyable. With little prior experience of mountain climbing I was able to reach the summit of both Ben Nevis and Scaffel Pike. Although I was unable to attempt Snowdon, the team made me feel just as proud to have pushed myself to get as far as I did. The whole experience felt very personal and encouraged every person to reach their own personal goal, whatever that may be. The guides for each mountain were extremely encouraging and friendly.

Just completed the three peaks challenge with the incredible help and support from team leaders Mike and Ryan. Choose a Challenge were so helpful during the months leading up to the challenge and their continued support has been amazing. The team could not have been more helpful and supportive during the peaks and I couldn’t recommend them more!

First-Class Experience with Choose A Challenge

Choose a Challenge has been nothing short of first-class from my initial booking for the Three Peaks Challenge for Dementia UK to the actual climb. They maintained excellent communication leading up to the event, ensuring we were as prepared as possible. The online briefing, expertly conducted by Katja, was particularly helpful.
As a solo traveller, I felt very welcomed and included in the group, thanks to Jules, our host. He was always motivating, encouraging, and ready to answer our questions.
Although the weather prevented us from summiting Ben Nevis, Jules kept our spirits high for the remaining Scalfel Pike and Snowdon climbs and greeted and congratulated each of us at the end of every descent.
I highly recommend Choose A Challenge for an unforgettable adventure!

Experience of a lifetime! CAC were a big part in helping Powersystens achieve this great feat. Jules for CAC was a fantastic host with a cracking personality, which helped the challenge go well despite the horriffic weather. Dementia UK is such a great cause and we couldnt of achived what we did without Jules and the CAC team, I would100% recommend getting in touh with CAC if you are thinking of taking on a challenge for charity.

Absolutely fantastic experience! I was very happy to take part in such an event for an incredible charity. I want to give a big thank you to Dementia UK, Choose A Challenge, our Hike Leaders, our drivers, and especially to Jules for organising this event. Jules was very friendly and welcoming to everyone, and without him the event definitely wouldn't have been the same.

Overall, everything was very well planned and executed. The only thing that held us back was the extremely abnormal weather conditions on Ben Nevis's summit which no-one could have predicted in advance. Despite this situation, Jules made the best out of our bad luck with Ben Nevis and kept us focused to complete the rest of the challenge (which we did!)

I highly recommend!

Great challenge made even better with CAC's Jules pulling the strings and making the Team hit the right note. Especially important as the weather had other ideas and put us to the test making us earn every peak. Brilliant guides made every step safe and enjoyable.

Dementia UK such a worthy cause so hope the fund raising helps make a difference

The team a choose a challenge were fantastic from start to finish. We had great communication and tips from booking and leading up to the challenge. When we arrived our host, Jules, was fantastic, motivating and informative. The mountain guides were great, as was the transport. If you are thinking of doing a challenge don’t hesitate to book with the choose a challenge team.

Very well organised, Jules was a fantastic guide and very encouraging throughout. Would fully recommend to anyone. All guides on each of the mountains were extremely supportive and very fun to chat too.

Jules was fantastic, the challenge was well organised, timings were great and we were well informed throughout. Highly recommend.

What an experience. We were very fortunate to have Jules coordinate the whole challenge, which in itself must have been a big challenge!!! Thanks a lots Jules!!!

Amazing trip and guide in Jules. Every little detail well catered for.

Brilliant experience, as a lone traveler i quickly became part of the larger team supported by Choose a Challenge. Jules, our go to person for everything, was incredibly knowledgable and kept the challenge flowing perfectly!
The 3 Peaks are a truly tough challenge, and that’s what I wanted! I met amazing people, became a fellow Lone Ranger with my travel companions and best of all, we all stuck two fingers up to dementia!! Well done everyone, you all smashed it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jules and all the guides made for an amazing experience!!! Would 100% recommend

Well organised. Managed to keep to schedule. Jules (our choose a challenge person) was amazing. Kept morale high, was very chatty and fun to have. Definitely woudlnt have been the same with out
