As they say in the streets, "mambo." You answer, "poa!"

We first met Yusuf almost 6 years ago. Since then he has guided all of our groups. He is a respected guide who is sought out by the National Park in Tanzania for information about the mountain and rescues. He has been selected by his peers as secretary to the Kilimanjaro Guides organization. Despite his reluctance to accept this position, the respect for his honesty and strength of character has guided him to this place.

He started out years ago on the mountain, as it was the only job in town. His careful planning and saving has allowed him to have a family, a house (just recently he was able to add water which means one outside tap thanks to the support of past clients). His natural intelligence has aided him in completing professional guides' school with straight A's.

Several years ago he asked to come to America. In a tedious, and difficult visa process, he was successful in a visit for two months. He spoke to over 17 groups from youth in prison to the most exclusive of country clubs about his life as a guide and the mountain. This highly unusual experience for a guide gives him exceptional insight into assisting your visit to Africa.

We admire his view of life and wisdom. We anticipate your experience will be beyond what you expect because of him.
