are dealing with please refer to the section entitled "What
our customers say"
WHAT SHOULD I BRING FOR CLIMBING: -
Suitable mountain gears are given below
Walking Boots:
Mountain boots are unnecessary unless you are taking an unusual
route that demands them.If you are not a decent pair of trekking
boots
will be fine. The important
thing about boots is comfort,with regard to toe room,remembering
that on the ascent up Kibo you might be wearing an extra pair or
two of socks, and that on the descent the toes will be sloved
into the
front of the boots with every step. Remember these points when
trying on trekking boots. Make sure they are also sturdy,water
proof,durable
and high enough to support your ankles.
Socks:
You need a couple of thick thermal pairs and some regular ones
should be fine.
Down Jacket:
Maybe necessary if you don't have enough fleeces. Make sure the
Jacket is large enough to go over all you clothes.
Fleece:
Take at least two one thick polar one and one of medium thickness
and warmth.
Thermals:
A thermal vest and long johns are sufficient.
Trousers:
Take a pair of trekking trousers preferably one light and one heavy.
Hat:
Sun hat as it can be hot and dazzling on the mountain.
Hat - Wooly/fleecy hat or Balaclava
will protect you from the biting summit wind.
Gloves - Preferably fleecy or you can wear a thin
thermal underglove with it.
Rainwear - A water proof jacket preferably made
from gore tex or similar breathable material. The jacket should
be big enough to go over all your clothes.
Sleeping Bag - Bring the warmest
you have got.A three season S/bag is probably the most useful.
Water bottles - For carrying water
up the mountain
Torch - A head torch if you have one and don't
find it uncomfortable.A head torch is more practical because it
allows you to keep both your hands free in the last night to the
summit.
Sun cream - High factor essential
Ice axe/Ski stick - Useful if you plan to go over
the arrow glacier.
Sun Glasses - Necessary on the morning you reach
summit
FOR SAFARI
Bring light washable clothes - suitable all the year round.A wide
brimmed hat,suntan oil and sunglasses are recommended.Some warm
clothing is necessary in high altitude areas such as the Ngorongoro.As
some Hotel and Lodges have swimming pools it worth bringing a swimming
costume.
