"I
liked the comprehensive website, had a nice friendly feel to
it..........Certainly a trip of a lifetime, evoking emotions of despair
and elation in the same day but with an overall feeling of achievement
and an insight into the lives of the wonderful local people we
encountered........Very attentive guides, porters and cook.
Couldn't do enough for us."

"A
clear website............I felt very
well informed throughout the entire booking process..............The
food on the
treks was much better than I ever imagined............Hygiene was of a
very high standard...........The trip exceeded my expectations. I had
reservations especially regarding the altitude, but the guides were
brilliant with good pace and advice...........The guides and crew were
absolutely excellent and made us feel very special. William worked so
hard for us and had thought of absolutely everything and a lot more
besides........... Every factor combined perfectly to really deliver
the trip of a lifetime! Well worth every penny! Thank you!!!!"

"The
team of support staff we had were excellent and looked the most
organised on the Mountain. They were well run and everyone
knew exactly what they had to do..........Humphrey
and Francis are both legends. You know when everyone knows who
your guides are and everyone wants to say hello to them, you have the
best
people on the Mountain in your team."

"Food
was AMAZING!.....The porters and guides were very friendly and caring
really made us feel welcome and special. Definitely a big
bonus.....Felt very safe - in good hands..........Wonderful trip -
...would definitely recommend it (ie
Ngorongoro safari)
as an add-on..........and no hesitation in recommending it (ie East African
Adventure)"

"Standards
of hygiene exceeded my expectation on the mountain..........Overall the
trip was impeccably thought out..........The support from the guides
and porters was overwhelming - the whole trip outdid any of my
expectations!"
Laura
McCafferty, Kilimanjaro Rongai trek
"The
support crew were fantastic. I loved coming in to camp with
the sound of the 'Kilimanjaro song' every day. It certainly
lifted spirits after a long day. The crew were only too happy
to help and support us and even carried my bag on summit
night..........Best bits - hot water to wash with, tea brought to you
in the morning, excellent food, excellent guides and the Kilimanjaro
song and not forgetting...we all got to the top!"
Emily
Stead, Kilimanjaro Rongai trek
"The
trip fulfilled all my expectations. It was a wonderful
experience. Trip of a life time. Super organisation
from East African Adventure. Guides were amazing and made the
trip extra special."

We are running
another Kilimanjaro charity climb in late July 2010 for Classrooms for
Kenya, which is a charity started by staff and students of the Weald
School, West Sussex. The charity's aim is simply to promote
education in Kenya by raising funds to build new, permanent and safe
classrooms for Kenyan children, replacing their mud hut classrooms with
brick-built ones. You can find out more about the work of
Classrooms for Kenya by clicking on www.classroomsforkenya.org.uk.
If you would like to sponsor the ten people climbing Kilimanjaro by the
Rongai route and help them achieve their group target of
£10,000, just go to the group's page at www.justgiving.com/wrichards. |

"The
team as a whole were brilliant, treated us like royalty, we all had a
great time & we bonded very well which made the whole
experience even better."

"Trip
was tailored to meet our specific requirements - was undertaken in a
thoroughly professional and courteous manner throughout. Frankly
amazing how good the food was given that it was being prepared on
camping stoves in a tent. One of the best holidays ever. Superb balance
of experience, exercise, achievement and relaxation. Met many lovely
people in truly unforgettable circumstances. Excellent planning and
flawless logistics. Many thanks indeed to all at East African Adventure
for a wonderful holiday."

"They
really paid attention to hygiene which instilled confidence in the
team. They were flexible enough to alter the pace to suit our needs to
ensure safety while maximising what we could achieve (having to make
adjustments because our son was not well). Totally satisfied. A really
good combination of experiences."
Ruth
Davis, Mt Kenya trek, safari & Zanzibar

"The
best organised measures of hygiene I've seen so far on a trek. I would
probably also have rated 'pace & route' as excellent if it
hadn't been for my troublesome knee. If only I had let William carry
some of my drinking water on day 2, as he offered to do ... I looked
for a destination in Kenya that was neither a traditional safari with
game drives nor strenuous mountain trekking, and I haven't seen a trek
like 'Loita Hills' offered by anyone else."
Birte
Christensen, Loita Hills walking trip

"Tents
provided were in fantastic condition and well suited to the trek. Food
on trek was great - lots of it and well cooked - Chef Meshach was
superb! Strong briefing at the start of trip stressed important
safety/hygiene points for the whole trek. Support crew were brilliant
from start to finish. The whole trip from start to finish was
excellent, we were well looked after at all times by everyone involved.
Particularly enjoyed atmosphere created by the whole crew on the trek -
lots of laughs."

"William
was first class in all areas! After working in this type of industry
for several years myself, I found very little difference between the
standards William set and that of any British or Western guide."

"The
flexibility offered by a private company allowed us to arrange the trip
to suit our requirements and also the flexibility to change
arrangements locally."
