This was hands down the most memorable trip I have ever taken. Truly remarkable scenery accompanied by every wild animal you could imagine. Lava Peaks ran a phenomenal tour, which was led by Iddy and his cook. I highly recommend that you request that pair. They took us all across the Serengeti, and were very understanding about stopping to take pictures. Ramson Swai (owner of the company) also came along to ensure that our trip was nothing short of perfect. I couldn't have asked for more!.
My brother and I recently came back from hiking Kili via the Lemosho Route. When we started looking at this trip we were clueless.

Our safety and success was their number one concern... every evening Ramson or our assistant guide made sure we were well prepared for the following day..

We climbed Kilimanjaro! And we get the chance to say that thanks to Ramson and his fantastic team. From start to finish, they were all amazing. The porters who carried our gear, tents, food, water - and even plastic chairs and tables so we could eat comfortably! With no tech clothing or boots..... These guys are incredible!! And Ramson - full respect. Complete pro..
