Here is what Jack from California had to say about our Kilimanjaro/Mt. Kenya/Safari:

"The leaders made considerable efforts to insure a great climb on Kenya and memorable trekking of the Circuit Route around the massif. Climbing guides especially were all amazing in knowledge of mountain craft, experience and patience.

I was able to make the summit in the company of clients and guides from all over the world; Canada, Germany, Holland, Kenya and the US. The backgrounds among all the people here are equally as varied and interesting."

Here is what Nicola from Australia, now living in London, had to say:

"It was an amazing time, one I do not wish to forget in a hurry. Words cannot describe my experience in Africa. I thought the other team members were great and everyone seemed to really enjoy the safari."

Here is what Sylvia from Victoria, Canada, had to say:

"Thank you for a very enjoyable and successful trip. I think it was really good."

Here is what Paul from Chicago, had to say:

"I had a great time and the trip was awesome."

Here is what Cheryl from Vancouver, had to say:

"I really enjoyed it. I am very glad that we had the chance to stay on Mt. Kenya. The trek and time spent there was amazing."

Here is what Wayne from Vancouver had to say:

"The trip was really very well done and I commend SummitClimb on the flexiblility they are able to bring, allowing people to all try to reach their goals in their own way."

Here is what Kelly from Chicago had to say:
