Trek the Great Wall of China – 3 - 12 June 2011

China leaves a lasting impression on all who go there. It is a country immersed in history, mythology and ancient traditions. This huge mass of land has the largest population on Earth. Our trek takes us along sections of the Great Wall, one of the world’s most fascinating and important archaeological finds and one of the New 7 Wonders of the World.

 

For the opportunity to experience a part of the Chinese culture, explore the Tiananmen Square, or see the sun break over the mountains whilst walking along the Wall, please get it touch.

Climb Kilimanjaro – 17-27 March 2011 OR 15-25 September 2011

 Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and one of the largest free standing mountains in the world. Climbing Kilimanjaro is a challenge to say the least and is one of the mountains almost every trekker and mountaineer in the world wants to conquer. Kilimanjaro is more or less 24 miles wide and 49 miles long; it is more ecosystem than mountain and dominates the savannah of East Africa. The mountain consists of three peaks: Shira, Mawenzi, and Kibo (the highest point of which is Uhuru). We will be climbing Mount Kibo peak in this challenge.

 

To feel the joy and pleasure of reaching the summit, whilst witnessing the most amazing sunrise over the peaks, please get in touch.
