Where we go

Nine regions we know foot by foot.

We don't sell the whole world — only the corners where our guides live, so you get local knowledge, not a printed itinerary.

Why travel with Свобода

The details that decide a trip, handled.

We've spent eighteen years learning what turns a hard route into a great one. It comes down to small groups, the right guide and doing the unglamorous logistics properly.

  • Small groups, big access

    Trips are capped at twelve, most run with six to ten. Fewer people means quieter camps, faster days and permits into places big operators can't reach.

  • Guides who live it

    Ninety-eight percent of our lead guides are local and licensed. They grew up on these routes — reading weather, wildlife and culture the way only locals can.

  • Every journey carbon-balanced

    We measure the footprint of each trip, cut what we can and fund verified restoration for the rest — and one percent of revenue goes to local conservation.

  • Protected & flexible booking

    Your money is financially protected, and you can move to another departure free of charge up to sixty days out. No small print, no stress.

How booking works

Three steps from armchair to trailhead.

No account, no deposit to enquire. Talk to a real person who has walked the route before you commit to anything.

1

Find your route

Filter trips by activity, region and difficulty — or send us the wild idea you've had bookmarked for years and we'll shape it.

2

Talk to a specialist

A trip specialist who's guided the region calls you back within one day to fine-tune dates, fitness and what to expect on the ground.

3

Pack and go

We sort permits, guides, transfers and a full kit list. You book flights and break in your boots — we handle everything else.

The team

The guides you'll actually walk with.

Certified, local and hand-picked. Between them they've logged more trail miles than most of us will drive in a lifetime.

★★★★★
The 'W' trek was the hardest, best week of my year. Our guide read the Patagonian weather like a book and turned a washout forecast into blue-sky summits.
Marcus Reid
Torres del Paine 'W' Trek
★★★★★
Walking the Serengeti instead of driving it changed everything. You feel the scale on foot. Small camp, brilliant ranger, and not another vehicle in sight for days.
Priya Raman
Serengeti Walking Safari
★★★★★
I'd never kayaked before Lofoten and never felt unsafe. Rune paced it perfectly, the cabins were straight off a postcard, and the midnight sun paddle was unreal.
Daniel Bergström
Lofoten Sea-Kayak Journey
★★★★★
Serious mountain days, seriously well run. The glacier skills training on day one meant I trusted the team completely by the time we hit the big crossings.
