Dreaming of adventures together
While sipping our favourite blend of KapiK1 coffee, we continue to create adventures that are unique, authentic, and based on our own experiences in the remotest deserts, jungles and coldest regions of the planet.
Using our vast logistical network and experience, KapiK1 hosts a series of expeditions that happen only once, never to be repeated. The adventure of a lifetime. Limited to group sizes of 6-10 max, plus our KapiK1 guides, make for a challenge that is both safe and not overcrowded!
These expeditions offer ‘REAL ADVENTURES’ that will challenge you. Proper preparation is key, and the team at KapiK1 will make sure you are ready, and confident, to have the best adventure possible!
NOT ONLY DO WE LOVE GOING ON EXPEDITIONS, WE LOVE COFFEE JUST AS MUCH!
We bring our collective love of coffee with us on every expedition and now to you in the Expedition Café!

Our incredible expedition alumni share their experience
Running in Death Valley with KapiK1 was a transformative experience. Not only was the scenery epic, the details planned to perfection, but the community built by Ray and Bob and the other runners will inspire me for years.
Kelly
Expedition Death Valley
“An epic 6 days in the desert with spectacular scenery where I learned so much about running technique, navigation, nutrition, essential devices and more. The sunburn, heat rash and exhaustion of Day 4 are distant memories, what remains are memories of an awesome experience, new friends, and the desire to more of these adventures with KapiK1. This far exceeded my expectations of what was in store and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.”
Neale
Expedition Atacama
The absolute best part of traversing Siberia’s Lake Baikal was our Kapik1 team. I felt so lucky to be part of such an AMAZING group of people! I loved how we had come together, in this incredible part of the world, to do what we all loved, which put most simply... was EXPLORING! All those beautiful images of the region on the web were in fact pale comparisons to the beauty of seeing it all in person. Being there, pushing one’s limits, made me feel grateful and alive on a whole other level!!”

Expedition Siberia
“It was an absolute dream to learn to navigate and run the Atacama Desert's constantly varying terrain- salt flats like snow, massive sand dunes, volcanoes and breathtaking slot canyons!!!”
Mindy
Expedition Atacama
"I have been traveling the globe in search of adventures for over 25 years. Let me just say that my recent expedition lead by Ray Zahab and his team from KapiK1 Expeditions to Lake Baikal in Siberia was one of, if not the best experiences I have ever had. The attention to safety and overall expeditions logistics were extremely professional. The team were absolutely amazing. If you get the chance to join a KapiK1 expedition, do it.”
Michael
Expedition Siberia
“KapiK1 Atacama has been an awesome experience which opened my mind to expedition and adventure: it transformed fears like being alone in a desert into a positive and powerful experience. It is personal, mental and physical challenge which connects you with pure nature and open spaces and allows you to learn from experienced and professional adventurers. It has been a life goal becoming reality!”
Roberto
Expedition Siberia
Recently I had the pleasure of joining Ray Zahab’s KapiK1 Expedition crossing of Lake Baikal in Siberia. Ray and his team were super professional, knowledgeable, and lots of fun. We had a AMAZING time, and it was an INCREDIBLE experience. What I liked best about our guided trip, was their willingness to do what WE wanted, and go at OUR pace. Most guided trips are filled with lots of pressure, but Ray allowed us to dictate what we did and how fast or slow we wanted to go. One day, we even decided that a hotel bed was more appealing than another night on the ice, we he allowed us to even increase our pace, and we finished a day early. It was great stuff and I would highly recommend him, and do another one!”
