Experience with Thomson Safaris: Kili Review – Allan R.

We just can’t say enough good things about Thomson’s support and organizational skills on the trek.  Our guides, Sunday, Prosper, Simon and Calvin, were the main reason for our success but the porters and cook/waiters who made sure we had the food/energy etc. to get through each day were of critical importance.

Many, many other trekkers around us did not reach the top and I attribute the difference to Thomson’s staff.  We liked the service from office to field.  It was timely, open & honest.

After the trek, I saw a book in the gift shop called something like Hiking Kilimanjaro at 70.  Of course, I was 67 during the trek and turned 68 a few days later, but I said I didn’t need to buy that book.  All you have to do to reach the Uhuru Peak is go with Thomson!
