From the moment you sign up for a hiking adventure with The Sports Guru, their professionalism shines through. Their knowledgeable guides meticulously plan each route, ensuring safety while maximizing the thrill of exploration. Every aspect of the journey, from equipment provision to trail guidance, is executed with precision and care, reflecting a commitment to excellence reminiscent of the delicate craftsmanship of Kintsugi.

Yet, The Sports GURU approaches each excursion as an opportunity to collect these broken fragments and weave them together with threads of gold. Through their expert guidance and support, hikers find solace in the wilderness, rediscovering lost parts of themselves amidst nature's grandeur.
In a world where imperfections are often shunned, The Sports Guru embraces them with open arms, weaving them into the fabric of unforgettable hiking experiences.
So, if you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and adventure, let Jean Chemaly be your guide, and together, let's discover the golden trails that lead to our inner resilience and strength.
A big thank you from the bottom of the heart to The Sports GURU and Jean Chemaly for turning this experience into an unforgettable journey of self-healing.

Jean the team leader is very friendly and has a lot of passion for what he does. So you will immediately feel comfortable around him. The positive vibes in the group, with everyone sharing a story for the trip's purpose were the highlight since day 1. We felt as we knew each other since a long time. It was a challenging experience with a lot of memories and new friendships.

ABC with TSG was an entire vibe! A life changing experience. 

Imagine connecting with complete strangers online, meeting them in a foreign country, and then living with them for 10 days! It happened, it was real, raw, revealing and I now have NINE new friends for life. 

The fact that you read this far means you are meant to do a trek with TSG. 
Sign up, go, trust me.... I trusted TSG with my life.

TSG deserves all the accolades. As a keen and demanding traveller, this is one of the best experiences of service excellence in all of my travels.

If I could I would give 10 stars not only 5 for the experience I had with the Sports Guru at ABC!

 Not even sure from where to start.

It is very well organized, everything was communicated ahead (no surprises).

The people I met were incredibly amazing. It is a must trip for anyone who is genuinely looking to reconnect with themselves and the nature. You can count on Jean on having the best experience ever.

More is coming!

Albanian Alps Trek - July 2023

Stefanie Dekker


Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


What’s great about the Albanian Alps is that it still has an authentic feel- yes tourists and hikers have arrived but not in mass form- yet. The ferry ride through valleys is something else- breathtaking- and you share the boat with locals who get off seemingly in the middle of nowhere.
The hiking is amazing-most of the time we had the trails to ourselves, bar the most famous Valbone - Theth pass. It’s gorgeous. I loved staying in the different valleys and the food was organic and super yum- always soup, salads and some form of meat or fish or vegetarian. Then you have the waterfalls and the Blue eye as the icing on the trip- FREEZING but so worth it! Loved Albania ❤️

For me, this trip wasn't only a hiking trip, it was a Life Changing one.

I went from: "I can't do it and I will stop at the first village we reach" to going up to ABC and back down for the whole 5 days with Zero injury and High sense of achievement.

And this changed so many "I can't" in my life to "I can and I will".
A big shout out to Jean for his professionalism and continuous encouragement. He has a character that incites trust as soon as you meet him, a well-placed trust ofcourse.
Thank you The Sports Guru and looking forward for my upcoming adventure with you!

Definitely a 5-stars trip. Jean is very professional, everything was perfectly planned. The orientation sessions and the tips before the trip were on point. From the moment we stepped in Nepal we hadn't to worry about one single thing. The visit to Kathmandu and Pokhara were very interesting and boosting before heading to the mountains. The adventure on the trek was hilarious. We had 3 Nepalese guides along with Jean. They were very kind and insightful. The vibes we've created, the bond and moments we lived were on another level. We went as strangers and came back as one family.

A Big Thank You and Excitement for Future Adventures!


I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude and massive thanks for the incredible experience I had during Le Tour du Mont Blanc with The Sports Guru. It was truly one of the best trips I've ever had in my life, one for the books, if you will. Everything was spot on, from organization to vibes, and every aspect of the journey was executed with precision and care.

What made the experience even more special was the sense of family and camaraderie I felt throughout the tour. It was evident that you go above and beyond to create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere for all travelers.

Your professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine passion for travel make each journey an unforgettable experience. Can't wait to do it all over again in Albania this July. I'm already counting the days! Can’t wait to hit the mountains again with you guys.

Thank you once again for everything, and I can't wait to embark on more adventures with you in the future.
