What about insurance ?

Although to date we have never needed to place an insurance claim we still invest in a very good policy that provides cover for both our clients and our staff and no small print land mines. All our activities are fully insured including camel rides, mountain biking and rappelling.

 

Why use Challenging Experience ?

Challenging Experience is a small company capable of providing a custom service suited to you and your needs but still has the experience and conections to make sure that you are always cared for.

Over 15 years of experience means that we know what we are doing and most of all have been good enough at what we do in order to enable our economic and commercial survival even through the roughest of economical times.

 

Who will be our guide ?

All the longer tours are guided by Adam Sela himself and if he is not there then one of his staff will be. We do not believe in outsourcing just so that we can do another tour and if we are not entirely at ease with our ability to run the tour or activity the way we like to then we will not take it upon ourselves from the beginning. This means that sometimes we are forced to turn customers away but we have never cancelled a pre-ordered trip.
