Kilimanjaro was honestly the best trip ever. From the first video call with Jean, I just had a good feeling and trusted him. He was so helpful from day one. You can literally ask him anything about how to prepare, what to expect, what to pack… and he answers with so much patience and honesty. Everything was smooth and well organized. During the trip, he really took care of everything, so all we had to focus on the experience itself. The African team on the mountain was amazing. So kind, so supportive. We felt comfortable the whole time from the food, to the tents, and the accommodation… If you’re thinking about it, just take the decision. Do it. And do it with Sportguru. It’s an experience you’ll never regret 💛

You never really know what awaits you on Mount Kilimanjaro—but it’s truly an experience of a lifetime. Even better when shared with Jean and all the team at the Sports Guru. Endless support, nonstop laughs, and memories that’ll last forever, all the way through summit night. Couldn’t be more grateful.

The best way to look at Africa is to stand on its roof! What an incredible adventure. Kilimanjaro awes you at every corner with its unique, daily-changing landscape, and challenges you both physically and mentally. ​That is what makes it so rewarding: the sense of achievement you get when you set foot on Uhuru Peak is so fulfilling and powerful—unlike anything I’ve felt before! Huge thanks to Sports Guru, and especially our team leader Jean Chemaly, for providing perfect organization and logistics, again and again. The local team they assembled was top-notch. As always the vibe within the group is so familial, relaxing, and motivating, which truly made the trip. ​To the next one!

We’d been wanting to do The Sports Guru’s Winter Wonderland adventure since it launched, and it did not disappoint. You curated a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience, with attention to every single detail and it really showed. From the cosy, rustic cabins to the exhilarating activities you booked, every moment felt special. I loved that the schedule had the perfect balance: enough time to fully enjoy everything (husky sledding was my absolute favourite), plus proper downtime in the evenings to relax and soak it all in. And I still can’t believe we saw the Northern Lights three nights in a row. The icing on the cake was the food, healthy, delicious, and somehow exactly what you want after a day out in the snow (when does that ever happen?). The team also took such good care of my vegetarian needs throughout. I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better way to start 2026: energised, strong, and feeling on top of the world. Thank you for giving us a memory we’ll cherish for a very long time.

An adventure not to be missed. Huge thanks to Jean for curating such an incredible trip filled with amazing activities. I also truly appreciate the attention to detail and the care given to every adventurer’s needs.

An adventure not to be missed.

I had an incredible experience trekking to Annapurna Base Camp with The SportsGuru - truly a 10/10 adventure from start to finish. The organization was flawless: every detail was thought through, the planning was seamless, and the checklist they provided made preparation so easy and stress-free. Our team lead, Jean, was exceptional - proactive, motivating, and genuinely caring. He went out of his way at every step to support us, encourage us, and make sure everyone felt confident and comfortable throughout the trek. The local guides were equally wonderful: friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help. The scenery was breathtaking, the journey smooth, and the overall experience unforgettable. I highly recommend this trip - you don’t need to be super fit to do it; you just need the right mindset and a sense of adventure. Would do it all over again!

The best choice in my life, was going with you to nepal, the team the guides and everything was perfect from a to z, i eill

My second adventure with Sports Guru, after the unforgettable Annapurna Base Camp trek — and the Tour du Mont Blanc was simply spectacular! I didn’t even bother checking the trip details this time because I completely trust Jean’s incredible way of planning and leading. Every day was a beautiful mix of challenge, emotion, and awe. Jean has this amazing ability to push you just enough to discover what you’re truly capable of — both physically and mentally. And along the way, you meet incredible people who start as strangers but end up feeling like lifelong friends. It was more than just a trek — it was an experience that stays with you long after it’s over. Can’t wait for the next adventure with Jean and the Sports Guru family!

TMB was the second trip with TSG, after completing ABC back in Nov 2023. The team is really consistent with what they do! Very attentive! The passion that Jean has is positively overwhelming. He makes you feel like a part of the family! Listen to him and make sure your checklist is complete (YOU WILL NEED IT). I am looking forward for the next trip with TSG. Keep up the wonderful work guys (including you Stef)

Thank you Sports Guru for a holiday of a lifetime! I joined a group of about 12 to trek around the Mont Blanc in July 2025, going through France, Switzerland and Italy, and each day the sweeping views of the mountains just got more and more beautiful. I met some incredible people too on the trek, who lifted my spirits and I just thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience so much. Jean was our team leader and he made sure everyone had what they needed and was so supportive and organised. Thanks for the most unforgettable experience!

I joined this trip without much planning, and it truly exceeded expectations — from the organization to the food to the accommodations, and finally the breathtaking sceneries. The team was amazing — they pushed us to go beyond our limits while making sure we felt supported and safe throughout, and by the end, genuinely felt like friends. I also met so many kind and inspiring people. A memorable adventure 🩵 I’ll definitely join them again on another one!

The trip was marvelous! The organization is top, Jean was very attentive in every person in this group. If you want to enjoy an Epic adventure just book ASAP...

Truly a wonder of an experience, would definetly do it all over again.

I went to ABC trek as a solo female traveler, not knowing the organizing group very well, and of course not knowing anyone on the trip. Soon enough I felt surrounded by my close friends and the team leader was like an older brother to me. TSG had this trip very well organized, taking care of every small detail - which made all the difference in the trip. Super professional, knowledgeable, and caring! I am already very excited about Everest Base Camp and planning my next trip with them for this year inshallah!

It was a great experience. The trip was very well organized, and the tips and information provided before the trip were very helpful. The group was amazing, which made the trip unforgettable.

Annapurna Base Camp trek in Nepal is often described as a breathtaking adventure! It was in real more than amazing! It offers stunning views of the Himalayan peaks, including Annapurna I, Machhapuchhre, The journey took me through diverse landscapes, from Mountains, rhododendron forests to large rivers, It provides a glimpse into the rich culture of the Nepalese community. The trek is considered challenging, with steep ascents and descents, but it's accessible to most trekkers with a reasonable fitness level. Along the way, I enjoyed the warm hospitality of local teahouses,where I discovered how beautiful and warm people they are. The supportive and professional team leader, Jean, you really elevate the journey and makes it easy and enjoyable. It's always fascinating how human connections are formed during such adventures! Can’t wait to make another changing life adventure with Sports Guru !

Best trip ever! From the very first moment, being with the sports guru felt like being with family. The experience went above and beyond my expectations—truly unforgettable. Jean, our incredible team leader, made us feel like friends rather than clients. His warmth and energy made all the difference. Forever grateful for this experience and can’t wait for more adventures with the sports guru!

Travelling - it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller. ABC trek lived to the fullest tnx to @thesportsguru and the best team leader @jeanchemaly who made this dream adventure come true, with great organization to the smallest detail and amazing passion, guidance and motivation. It was a mind blowing unforgettable experience. I will come back, HUNGRY FOR MORE!!

The trip to ABC with the sports Guru was a real life experience I will never forget. The technical details and planning were accurate and well done; this goes without saying. What made the trip so special is that we felt as a family in the group, we shared so many memories together, and ultimately made friends for life.

I just completed the ABC hiking adventure with the Sports Guru team. It was an incredible journey filled with beautiful moments. This experience challenged me to face the contradiction of finding my strength amidst my lowest point and discover my buried weaknesses. Meeting an incredible group of people to share this journey with was an unexpected fulfillment.. starting as complete strangers and ending as beautiful friendships. The sports Guru team, namely Jean and Stefanie were an outstanding support system providing everything we needed prior this journey and during it. Their passion to nature was directly affecting our spirits, lifting them up to keep on going and continuing till the end.

I just completed the ABC hiking adventure and it was an unforgettable experience.

It was a great experience, I thought I wouldn’t be able to do it, but I did it because I got a lot of support from the team, they we very supportive and helpful, I will definitely go on another trip with The Sports Guru!

The ABC Hike is a perfect blend of The Sports Guru's unwavering excellence and the unmatched hospitality of Nepal—a match truly made and experienced in paradise. This remarkable combination is why I found myself returning for a second adventure in 2024. For more details, check out my review of ABC 2023.

I recently completed a trekking trip in Nepal with The Sports Guru, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. Jean and Stef’s professionalism, organization, and attention to detail were outstanding.
