A wonderful expedition, a first for EU. (...) The weather was then on our side and, thanks to the expertise of our guide Sébastien, everything went perfectly smoothly, which was far from guaranteed at the outset. This crossing should not be underesti...
Northwest Passage — Cambridge Bay to Gjoa Haven section. An exceptional experience for an adventure far off the tourist radar. A (very) demanding expedition that should not be underestimated, due to the distance (400 km / 250 miles), the duration (ar...
I took part in a preparation course in the Jura and greatly appreciated the personality and professionalism of our guide, Olivier B. The course offered a good balance between very detailed information, discussed at length during the exchange sessions...
Excellent polar training course, a flawless experience from start to finish.
A fantastic course from beginning to end. Olivier, the guide, was extremely attentive, available, and supportive. He generously shares all of his experience, advice, and ti...
I wanted to fulfill my dream and make sure I was giving myself the best possible chance by choosing Expeditions Unlimited. I absolutely do not regret that decision. I can only recommend going with them. The only surprises you will have will be good o...
An excellent adventure with Expeditions Unlimited.
The team is very responsive, with great support before departure (advice on equipment, wetsuit rental, etc.) and of course throughout the climb itself.
The French-speaking guides were fantastic, th...
I had the chance to join Expeditions Unlimited for the ascent of Ama Dablam, and I can only recommend this agency.
Here are the highlights that really stood out to me :
Very professional from the very first contact: clear briefing, personalized pre...
A wonderful expedition to Ama Dablam—the organization was spot on from start to finish. The agency has surrounded itself with some of the best local teams in Nepal. We felt supported and well looked after throughout, and the entire team is truly comm...
Lenin Peak isn’t quite as “easy” as people sometimes say.
You need:
perseverance and a strong mindset — to deal with the inevitable ups and downs
a certain toughness — more than 20 nights in a tent (including 3 at 6,100 m at Camp 3)
solid physica...
Lenin Peak is a truly big mountain, and climbing it is a serious undertaking. The conditions, the distances, and the altitude all make the challenge a complex one. Of course, everyone will have their own opinion about all sorts of small details. But ...
An extraordinary expedition to Lenin Peak!
The two guides were truly exceptional, and I’m convinced that without them it wouldn’t have been the same story. Eight out of fourteen of us reached the summit, which is remarkable when you consider that th...
We left in April May 2024 for the French base camp of Makalu (8483 m) and we climbed this summit on May 12, 2024 (the only French people in 2024) The organization of the agency ”Expeditions unlimited” was simply perfect. Serge Bazin, our guide, was e...

Excellent experience for this trek on an iconic mountain. Amazing logistics, highly professional guides and efficient team of porters. A successful ascent of the summit without any altitude issues, thanks to a well-thought-out, gradual acclimatizatio...
Great trip, an ideally optimized acclimatization program! A little fast above 5600m (justified by the fact that we're not made to live too long above this altitude) which makes the summit push quite brutal, but largely feasible for a final altitude o...
Thank you Expéditions Unlimited for this wonderful experience!
As always, the preparation of the trip went smoothly thanks to a team that was available, attentive and responsive.
Once we're there, we just have to enjoy ourselves, because the local ...
Very satisfied with this raid in the Jura with Olivier, our guide. A great way to discover what a polar expedition can be, with a technical part full of practical tips to make the most of this type of adventure, and a pratical part to learn how to ha...
1 incredible week in the heart of the Jura for a unique experience, in preparation for future polar expeditions. Olivier Bourcet passes on a rare wealth of knowledge thanks to his incredible experience and generosity. Two levels of courses, each with...
Preparatory course in the Jura with our top guide Olivier BOURCET who, in just a few days of friendly, intensive and precise training, propelled us into the dreams of the Artic Circle Trail. We began to dream of Amundsen, PEV...
Thank you Olivier fo...
I took part in the polar preparation course in the Jura. A very instructive one. As the polar environment is fairly closed and difficult to access, it's a great way to get your first taste of the adventure, and to get very concrete feedback from the ...
Thank you Expeditions Unlimited for this expedition!
Thanks to the professionalism of Eric, David, and Axelle, I was able to prepare myself in the best possible conditions (flights, equipment…).
The experience itself was simply breathtaking. The la...

I've just returned from an intense expedition in Vietnam's Kebang Phong Nha National Park, where we explored the western part of the park near the Laotian border, particularly the Bac Son plateau, an almost unexplored zone. The organization involved ...
160 kilometers ski-pulka sliding from Kangerlussuaq to Sisimiut along the Arctic Circle Trail in Greenland, early March 2024.
Very smooth and responsive contact with Eric Bonnem and his team to prepare the expedition, with advice on the right equipm...
10-day expedition on the arctic circle trail. Impeccable logistical and material organisation. Very good guide. Well selected group members. I recommend it.
Very smooth and precise contact with the agency before departure. Good organization and local team. Logistics, base camps and transportation were all well managed.
Magnificent experience, and more over, we reached the summit .. !
A unique and surprising experience (in a good way).
I enjoyed the incredible landscapes of this volcanic desert, so hot during the day and cold at night. The Chilean support was very competent and friendly. This project can be completed in just 2 we...
Thank you again Olivier and the rest of the team for this exciting and memorable weekend. Flawless organization from start to finish. A highly rich, concrete theoretical and practical content shared with great professionalism and good humor. A sporti...
An authentic Himalayan expedition! With its share of uncertainties, unexpected difficulties and discoveries, in a valley off the beaten path. Proper preparation with the Expeditions Unlimited team, daily monitoring, weather routing, and plenty of ava...
Very good level 1 course. Olivier, our guide, is a real source of inspiration both because of his experience in polar regions and his ability to share his knowledge and passion. The Jura environment was a great discovery for me. The lodge, the refuge...
Great training. Olivier taught us all about technical equipment, physical preparation and the psychological aspect of a polar expedition. This training course took place in the beautiful landscapes of the Jura. We had very enjoyable evenings in the l...
Very good choice of agency for a return to expeditions under the best conditions. Top safety with our guide Serge, despite a challenging mountain. Four-star base camp. Motivated team. A beautiful summit achieved in perfect conditions.
A great mountain experience in an isolated massif with very few people (just us on the mountain on the day of the summit push). The base camp was great, the food was of good quality although it became limited after 30 days. The guides were well-train...
Very nice expedition, on a mountain in difficult conditions (not much snow, very icy). The guide, Serge, adapted well to lead us to the summit in these changing conditions. A very beautiful summit!
Thanks to the expedition companions, Bernard, Valér...
Of course, any amateur aspiring to climb an 8000 can book with a Nepalese agency, as it's cheaper. I didn't make that choice, preferring to go with Expeditions Unlimited (E.U.), and I did the right choice ! The added value of E.U. is considerable: a ...
There's no such thing as an “easy” 7000, and no climb is possible without an excellent guide. In a setting that is always spectacular, we benefited from a superb organization, and above all from a guide who always found a way around any technical, hu...
A magnificent expedition in incredible landscapes. Perfect organization and great group cohesion. Serge, our guide, was professional, made our climb as safe as possible , always cheerful and attentive. An adventure to be repeated as soon as possible....
Excellent organization, a guide who knows what to do for a preparation that maximizes the chances of success safely. I was with a superb team who got on so well as if we'd always been together. Breathtaking landscapes, the richness of the country, an...
Second adventure for me, this time on Peak Lenin in Kyrgyzstan. Great organisation with Expedition Unlimited once again! Can't wait for the next one! 1000% recommendation if you want to get off the beaten track and push your limits.
Fantastic trip with Expeditions Unlimited. Great organization throughout the journey, the guides went out of their way to make the experience unforgettable (special shout-out to Musa and Baraka), and an incredibly friendly international group! I high...
Great experience on Lake Baikal with Brecht, who was always enthusiastic and very professional! Thanks to the cooperation of the whole team, I was also able to combine the expedition with a journey across Russia on the Trans-Siberian Railway! I'd lov...
It was a beautiful challenge in magnificent polar landscapes, all with a supportive and friendly group! I'll cherish theses memories for the rest of my life :)
Many thanks to Manu our guide, Eric and Julie for the organization, as well as all the o...
After an excellent experience in Svalbard in 2018,I wanted to continue the discovery of a boreal expedition.
For me the ACT was too hard, I'm 67 and recovery isn't as good as at 30. The long stages left little room for the end of the day or for plea...
Freshly returned from the Arctic Circle Trail with Expeditions Unlimited, an expedition in the polar atmosphere, where I came to test my skills in that environment, confirm my autonomy to go solo or follow other more committed expeditions, or even in...
An exceptional trip that left a deep impression on me: a polar environment, superb landscapes (frozen lakes, surrounding mountains), the Northern Lights at night. 160km and 8 days with no connection to the outside world: a return to basics. And final...
I was lucky enough to set off for Nepal on the slopes of Ama Dablam during the 2021 season.
The expedition itself takes around 4 weeks, including preparation time in Kathmandu, the trek up the Everest valley from Lukla to base camp, and the climb it...
Expeditions Unlimited has become the reference agency in France for major Himalayan ascents. It relies on serious upstream preparation with Iffremont, a perfect local service, and an team who take great care. Without these meticulous logistics, this ...
