Hi, I’m Koen De Leeuw, a seasoned expedition leader and survival expert with a background in elite military training. As a former Para Commando, I’ve developed my survival and leadership skills in some of the harshest environments on earth.

 

My certification as a Wilderness First Responder ensures that safety is always the top priority, no matter how remote or challenging the setting. You might know me as the expedition leader on the TV series 'De Expeditie,' where I guided celebrities through some of the world’s most unforgiving terrains.

​

With over a decade of global expedition experience, I design and lead life-changing adventures that push your limits, inspire growth, and foster resilience.
