    The highlight has to be actually getting to the top of the bloody mountain, another bucket list item ticked off!

    Highlight was undoubtedly the crew. We had 15 people supporting 4 of us - 2 guides, cook, camp manager, waiter, tent manager, toilet manager, porters, etc. they were a fantastic group with whom we struck up good relationships. We cannot speak highly enough of Moussa and his team. They got us to the top, but provided a real Tanzanian experience as well

    I was very happy with the trip as a whole. Explore were 4, and the local company, Ahsante, were 5. The guides were very committed to getting us to the summit and their advice, and slow pace of walking really helped. My one concern is for the future of the mountain. The camps were quite poor from the point of view of litter, and very poor state of the toilets. I think they were so bad that a lot of people just user the edge of camp. Some investment from the Tanzanians, to improve toilets and better manage the campsites would pay dividends I think.

    Don't underestimate Summit night. You cannot dictate the weather and therefore it is key that you are well prepared.
