"Standing at the bottom of the top of the world was my dream since I was a little kid. My Everest Base Camp Trek with Kiki and Satya fulfilled every part of that dream and more! They are true professionals: care about safety, sharing experiences, stories, motivating you, and helping you to reach your goal. Looking forward to my next Higher than Everest adventure with them!"

"Kiki Tsakaldimi is a true mountain and team leader and greatest inspiration for people. Why? Simply because she always wishes to lead others into the mountains, to the great outdoors, and she strives to promote safety in the mountains and provides instruction in the skills required for leading groups as well as a team. By her motto “Higher that Everest” she manages the group effectively by setting and reviewing targets, performing ongoing risk assessments, positive decision making, delegating where appropriate, group control, discipline and good communication. I had the opportunity to climb Mt Olympus and Mt Saos under her supervision and guidance and participate in a lot of outdoors hiking. She is simply the best and trustworthy."

"The love for nature and sports was the occasion for us to meet! The passion for mountains, mountaineering and climbing, was the reason we became good friends! We have jointly guided several groups into the Greek Mountains over the years. Kiki is consistent, responsible and a total people´s person and the way she leads and encourages others to exceed their limitations is an inspiration to all. We continue to be guiding partners."

"If you are looking for people who can effectively guide you on mountainous routes in Greece or in climbing famous peaks abroad, Kiki and George are the right people. Both are experienced in organizing excursions on mountains for begginers or skilled climbers. They take care of all details and design the route according to the abilities of the team. They are very careful but also polite in such a way that the excursion becomes pleasant for the people who participate. Special mention should be made for Kiki: she is a high level climber as she has participated in many international mountaineering expeditions and has climbed several famous peaks abroad. In a few words, George and Kiki is a couple you can trust either for a mountaineering expedition or just for a simple excursion on mountains and hills. Go for it!"
