Jim
Spending years living and guiding expeditions across the continents of Africa, Asia and South America, Jim is never short of a travel tale. If Jim isn’t showing you some hidden treasures of the places that you’ll venture too or meeting local people (he’s a bit of a celeb in Morocco with endless handshakes and the echoes of ‘Jims’ following him down the dusty roads of Imlil), then he’s probably sharing some of his really bad jokes.

What travelers say about Jim
First trek with these guys yesterday, Snowdon challenge, absolutely great event run by a fantastic team, thanks guys for a super day and too James for being our guide
Hannah
Our Snowdon Triple Challenge was a pleasure from start to finish. They made it very easy for me. I had help with setting up my fundraising pages, to finding the right hotels and to advice on the actual event itself. The communication was brilliant. During the event itself the brief was excellent and the Guide was knowledgeable, friendly and got us all through the challenge. The whole experience was fantastic and one I would definitely recommend.
