Hear from our Prismers

“Definitely one of the best trips of my life and that had a lot to do with the magic of Socotra and the Architect of Memories himself, Ahmed, who made sure everyone was always comfortable. He always went out of his way to make sure everyone had everything they need.

The itinerary he made was carefully calculated to make sure everyone has a good time and experiences the best parts of the island. It was my first camping trip and it was surprisingly easy, as Ahmed’s staff were excellent, they made everything so easy and simple, and I’d like to underline that the bathrooms (well bath tents) were surprisingly always clean. That was something that surprised all of us.

The forced disconnected from the world (most of the time there’s no network or internet) was probably the best thing of the trip. Turning on/off airplane mode is very different from not having the option of turning it on. We all desperately need that detox from our daily lives and responsibilities and Socotra is the best place to do it.

You will not regret going to Socotra with Prism.” - Saleh AlRefaei

Guided by Ahmed Almonsouri

Hello hello hello! I’m Ahmed, the founder of Prism Adventures and a lifelong believer that travel should be about people, not just places. I love good conversations, long hikes, and that feeling when everyone in a group becomes like family. If you’ve joined a Prism trip before, you already know how much I value connection, laughter, and a little bit of chaos along the way.

I started Prism Adventures because I was craving something deeper from travel, something raw, real, and human. Back in 2016, I went on a hiking trip in Oman with friends, and between the laughter and quiet moments, I found a kind of freedom I’d never felt before. That moment changed everything. In 2018, I started Prism to create that same sense of belonging and adventure for others, and I haven’t looked back since.

Get to know Ahmed

What moment on a trip always sticks with you?
That quiet part after a long day when everyone’s tired, laughing, and real.

How do you spend your time when you’re not guiding?
Playing piano, hanging out with my close friends, and working out.

What’s one thing travel has taught you?
That people everywhere just want to be heard and understood, and deep down, we’re far more alike than we are different.

Do you believe in getting lost?
I got to the best moments of my life after feeling lost.

What kind of people inspire you?
People who are giving, empathetic, compassionate, and understanding.

What’s one thing you hope everyone takes from a Prism trip?
That you don’t need to have it all figured out, and that you’ll never be alone. You will always meet beautiful people and make wonderful new friendships.

What’s your favorite TV show?
Golden Girls, duh.

What kind of music do you like?
Anything by Lana Del Rey or Abdulrahman Mohammed.

What’s something most people don’t know about you?
I am architect and worked for 7 years before switching full time to Prism.


What do you love most about guiding trips?
Seeing strangers become friends and watching people surprise themselves.

What’s your go-to comfort meal?
Fried chicken all the way - and my mom’s Machboos.

What’s one thing you can’t travel without?
My journal and my headphones.

The Prism Experience

  • Saleh AlBraik

    “It’s one thing to enjoy the stunning views of Norway, but it’s completely another thing to have a group of individuals that you completely fall in love with. I guess it’s somehow magical that people joining prism are looking to connect. I will never forget the memories I created, and with Ahmed’s great guidance throughout the entire journey, I didn’t have to worry about anything else.

    “كنت دائماً متردد أسافر مع قروب وأشعر بالتخوف، ولكن بعد تجربتي الأولى مع برزم تغيّر منظوري ١٨٠ درجة، كانت تجربة استثنائية لا تُتنسى، الانسجام التفاعل والرحلات والتعامل مع يعضنا البعض كان مثل العائلة الواحدة، وكل هذا بلا شك قدرة القايد أحمد المنصوري بإدارة التفاصيل كلها.

    “First Group Trip ever! I had an amazing experience on the Dolomites 2.0 hike with Prism and Ahmed Al Monsouri last June 2024.

    This trip was exactly what I needed to step out of my comfort zone and become more social. It provided a perfect balance of mental relaxation and physical activity – a true 2-in-1 deal.

    Rafi planned everything meticulously, making us feel welcomed from day one. The way it was organized was top-notch, the route was exhilarating, and the entire experience was fun and
    energizing.

    I can’t thank Ahmed and Rafi enough and wish him and Prism all the best as they continue to grow. Prism truly wins!

  • Hanan Muzaffar

    “When everything is wonderful and mesmerizing, reviews are difficult. Moss covered lava fields galore, soft mountain tops like sitting on pillows, snow caves (wow wow wow) and glaciers that dance for us (ok they were turning, but what a dance), a black beach leading into a cave of wonders.

    Iceland is magic. Iceland with Ahmed is pure bliss, and the group I was with is the best collection of people you want with you on any trip. Even the bus rides were thrilling. I’d go back again (cliff jumping into river included :)

    “حلم و الحمدلله كان واقع 💙

    سجلت في الرحلة قبل سنة من اول ما اعلن عنها ، كل شي كان بيرفكت ، التنظيم و ادارة الوقت ، و الانشطة اللي موجودة و المناطق المختارة كل شي كان بالقلم و المسطرة ، روح احمد القيادية و خفة دمة كفيلة ان تخلي الرحلة ناجحه ، احمد بعد الرحلة تكسبه صديق حيل عزيز مو مجرد شخص سافرت معاه و خلاص ، احترمت شكثر انسان يتعب على شغله ، و شكثر اهوا حيل قوي ذهنيا و جسديا ، و شكثر كان متعاون مع القروب ، رحلة غرين لاند كانت من الاحلام و الحمدلله صارت واقع

    “I had amazing time with Ahmad and the group. It was the best adventure I had in my whole life. Ahmad arranged every activity in a specific order that was smartly done to build us up for the big hike. He also thought of even the small things. He made sure everyone was enjoying his time and having fun. He had the concept of no one is left behind. The types of the activities he arranged for us were amazing the schedule was perfect one day we would be doing intense activities and the other day we would be doing relaxing activities. He even helped with the choices of the meals and every time they were delicious choices. Am so glad that am going to a second adventure with him soon and inshallah more to come.
