Most people think that their trip begins when they head for the airport - they're wrong. As soon as you sign up, your dream is transformed into a reality, and your adventure has just begun. This is the time to buy that down jacket you've been wanting for awhile, or to go out shopping for a great pair of hiking boots. Or maybe, get that long lens for your camera. It's also the time to unfold the topo map, spread it out on your dining room table, and trace the route of your journey. You now have bragging rights.

Within a few days of joining one of Tusker's trips, you'll receive an in-depth packet. In this packet is a detailed manual to help you prepare for your adventure. It also contains a DVD, which covers Tusker's health and safety procedures on our trips, for which we have earned our great reputation. The safety DVD applies to all of our trips, as they are all led by medically trained guides. The reading material covers a wide range of topics including:
  • Maps, Books & Visa Info
  • Travel Documents
  • Food on the Trip
  • Gear
  • Weather
  • Photography
  • Clothing & Accessory List
  • Arriving In Africa
  • Life on Expedition
  • Kilimanjaro Flora & Fauna
  • Useful Swahili Words
  • Availability Of Goods
  • Flight Information
  • Health & Medical
  • Money & Currency
  • Tipping the Crew
  • Insurance
  • Detailed Itineraries
  • Recommended Reading
All this information will probably get you asking some more questions. Just contact our Lake Tahoe office, and our experienced staff will be happy to help out.
