Barry Dalal-Clayton & Sachin Dalal-Clayton
Barry and Sachin are a father and son team who have been planning to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro since the autumn of 2008. They have spent a long time researching routes, equipment and trekking companies (operators/outfitters). That research led them to Team Kilimanjaro who they determined to be one of the most experienced, reputable and reasonably priced companies to climb with (Team Kilimanjaro – based in Arusha and the UK). They also are the inspiration behind possibly the most rewarding and spectacular way up Kilimanjaro, combining an approach across the Shira plateau via the Lemosho route as far as the Lava Tower, and then an ascent via the spectacular Western Breach.
Barry basically found Team Kilimanjaro through his own research in where he came upon this great guide service whom he liked very much. The Trek, a 9-day ascent includes the last night spent camped in the crater. This trek was tailor-made by them, and for them, and now me as well.
