The criterion we are looking for is ‘Interested & Interesting’. This is not a budget tour, and we are not looking for budget travelers. We are looking for people who have something to offer and who are keen to learn, absorb and interact with others equally dedicated to the give and take of travel.
Everyone signed up so far is a dedicated traveler, some traveling to Africa for the first time, all climbing Kilimanjaro for the first time. This is going to be a once in a lifetime opportunity to catch the first sunrise of 2009 from Uhuru Summit, the highest point in Africa.
We will also be doing a quick trip through the Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area to get a little bit of a flavor of the country before we start the climb. The route we will be climbing will be the Lemosho Route, the longest and most remote of all of the Kilimanjaro trails, and one that adds a distinct atmosphere of Africa to the mountain.
