The GirlsTrek difference for your experience to climb to the summit of Kilimanjaro starts with what we do best. The essence of a successful trip is the strength of the relationships with the people in the communities with visit. For our pre and post trip travel arrangements our travel dollar helps the School of St Jude  who not only are our hosts for accommodation pre trek, but also arrange our post trek Safari. Our trek is with local provider Paul Bernard who has had a long time friendship and delivered many many successful summit trips for a family friend of Frith's.  The trust runs deep for this important part of our time in Africa.
