African Scenic Safaris的点评
点评：We just completed a Kilimanjaro climb (3 of us) and safari (2 of the original 3) with African Scenic Safaris and I can't say enough good things about this outfit. My friend picked the company after doing a lot of research and even emailing with the author of a Kilimanjaro travel guide for his input, and I could not have been more pleased with how it all turned out.
Trip planning: For the better part of a year, Hanson in the main office politely answered all our questions, helped us make all our arrangements, and provided us with detailed packing lists.
Kilimanjaro: I had trekked internationally before in Peru and Patagonia so I thought I would know what to expect, but I was wrong. From start to finish, the staff at African Scenic Safaris blew me away with all the professionalism and care they put into ensuring a safe journey up and down the mountain. The day before our climb, we received a detailed briefing from, and underwent a gear check with, the lead guide Joel. I had never had either a briefing or gear check on my previous treks even though Peru involved a very rapid ascent from 11k to over 15k feet in a single day, which is nowhere near as high as Kili but still a significant altitude. Literally the only thing anyone cared about with respect to my gear there was that it was within the weight limit and anyone who felt sick was just given coca leaves to chew or told to ride the emergency donkey. Not so with African Scenic Safaris; Joel reviewed with us what we could expect and would need and inspected all the key pieces of gear we would use, including our boots and the various warm layers and accessories we would need for summit night to make sure they were sufficient. We all remarked that we had used pretty much every single thing on the 3 page long packing list! We also knew there was oxygen on hand, although none of us needed to resort to that.
The attention to detail continued with the climb itself with every day meticulously planned out by Joel in consultation with us (and based on the vitals he took daily) to get us from camp to camp in the most efficient and safe manner so we could acclimate and get adequate rest before trying to summit. Our assistant guide Hiari was also extremely qualified and knowledgeable about the history and topography of the mountain, in addition to being the best cheerleader and caregiver one could ask for -- he even wiped my runny nose for me without being asked when I was unable to get my own kleenex out of my pocket because of the thick mitts I was wearing! The cook Lazaro worked wonders to prepare 3 square hot meals for us a day. And the entire crew of porters worked together like a well oiled machine to ensure we were well fed and supported each step of the way; flawlessly breaking down camp and then running ahead of us to set up so that everything was pretty much ready for us whenever we got to the next stop. Brayson the steward greeted us with coffee and a smile in our tents every morning and brought us all our meals and water in the mess tent, Joel 2 kept our toilet tent squeaky clean, Benson accompanied us to the summit, and so on so forth. All 3 of us were able to summit safely thanks to the tireless efforts of Joel, Hiari and the rest of the African Scenic Safaris team.
Safari Extension: Following the climb, 2 of us stayed on in Tanzania for 5 days of safaris in Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire. We flew from Arusha to Serengeti and were picked up by our driver and safari guide, Emanuel, in a well equipped v8 4x4 with a pop top and air-conditioning. The car had a fridge, a power strip for charging cameras and phones, a bin, and well placed pockets and cup holders all throughout. Also a large filtered water system so we were never without drinking water! Emanuel gifted us each our own reusable, safari animal patterned African Scenic Safaris water bottle, which we really appreciated because we are anti single use water bottles. Also because we had been wanting to buy African Scenic Safaris merch after our climb :) For the next 5 days, Emanuel escorted us around from park to park, regaling us with the history of each, as well as detailed information about the dozens of animals we saw. Because of his amazing instincts and experience, we were able to see a wildebeest crossing from start to finish, all of the big 5, and all of the ugly 5!!!!! Tbh I had been to Tanzania once before and hated it because I was only in Zanzibar, which feels like a tourist trap through and through even when staying at a 5-star hotel like the Park Hyatt. My 5 days with Emanuel helped change my negative perception of the country; his love of and pride in Tanzania shows through in everything he does and is truly infectious. I have also previously done safaris in South Africa and Uganda and while I saw plenty of animals up close on those safaris, the guides did not come close to Emanuel's storytelling and explication. Rather, they just took us from point to point in perfunctory fashion, saying next to nothing beyond, "here is a lion."
TLDR: Book with African Scenic Safaris! You won't regret it. I'm already planning on returning to Tanzania to do a different climb and safari through them.

翻译：我们刚刚和African Scenic Safaris一起完成了乞力马扎罗山攀登之旅（我们三人同行），随后又进行了野生动物观赏之旅（原先的三人中有两人参加）。对于这家旅行社，我真是赞不绝口。我的朋友经过大量调研，甚至还就行程安排咨询了某本乞力马扎罗旅游指南的作者，最终选定了这家公司。而整个行程的结果也完全超出了我的预期。
行程规划：在近一年的时间里，总部的Hanson始终耐心地解答我们的所有疑问。他们帮助我们安排了所有事宜，还为我们提供了详细的打包清单。
乞力马扎罗山：我以前曾在秘鲁和巴塔哥尼亚进行过徒步旅行，所以原以为自己对这类行程有所了解，但事实并非如此。从头到尾，African Scenic Safaris的工作人员都以极高的专业水准和细心周到的态度来确保我们能够安全完成这次登山之旅。在攀登前一天，我们接受了详细的行前说明，还进行了装备检查。首席向导是乔尔。在我以往的徒步经历中，从来都没有进行过任何情况说明或装备检查；虽然在秘鲁的那次行程中，我们需要在一天之内从海拔11000英尺迅速攀升至15000英尺以上——这个高度虽远不及乞力马扎罗山之巅，但也属于相当高的海拔了。不过在那里，大家唯一关心的就是我的装备重量是否符合限制标准；而那些感到不适的人，也只会被给予古柯叶让他们咀嚼，或者被告知可以骑上应急用的驴子。African Scenic Safaris则截然不同：乔尔与我们一起回顾了行程中需要准备的物品，并检查了我们将要使用的所有关键装备，包括登山靴以及登顶之夜所需的各种保暖衣物和配饰，以确保它们都足够实用。我们都注意到，那份长达三页的装备清单上的每一样物品我们都用上了！我们还知道现场备有氧气罐，不过最终我们当中没有人需要用到。这种对细节的关注也体现在攀登过程中：乔尔与我们密切沟通（并依据他每天记录的身体状况数据），精心规划了每一天的行程，以最高效且安全的方式带领我们从一个营地前往另一个营地，从而确保我们能适应高原环境并在尝试登顶前得到充分休息。我们的助理向导希亚里同样资质出众，对这座山的历史与地形也了如指掌。他不仅是最出色的啦啦队员和照料者——有一次我因为戴着厚厚的手套，没法从口袋里拿出面巾纸，他甚至主动帮我擦掉了流个不停的鼻涕！厨师拉撒罗也相当出色，每天都为我们准备三顿热腾腾的饭菜。所有的搬运工们齐心协力，宛如一台运转良好的机器，确保我们在每一步旅程中都能得到充足的食物与照料；他们熟练地拆除营地，然后抢在我们前头把新营地布置妥当，这样每当我们抵达下一个地点时，一切都已准备就绪。宿管员布雷森每天早上都会带着咖啡和微笑出现在我们的帐篷前，还在食堂帐篷里为我们送上餐食与饮用水。乔尔2则负责保持厕所帐篷的清洁无瑕。本森陪同我们登上了山顶，诸如此类。多亏了乔尔、希亚里以及非洲风景探险队其他成员的不懈努力，我们三人都成功安全登顶。
游猎之旅补充：攀登结束后，我们中有两人留在坦桑尼亚，在塞伦盖蒂、恩戈罗恩戈罗和塔朗吉雷进行了为期5天的游猎活动。我们从阿鲁沙乘飞机前往塞伦盖蒂，随后由我们的司机兼向导伊曼纽尔驾车接上我们。那是一辆配备齐全的V8四驱车，带有可开启式车顶和空调。这辆车配有冰箱、用于给相机和手机充电的电源插排、垃圾箱，车内还设置了多个口袋和杯架，十分实用。此外，车上还有一个大型过滤水系统，因此我们始终能喝到饮用水！埃曼纽尔还送给我们每人一个印有非洲野生动物图案的可重复使用水瓶，我们对此感激不已——因为我们向来反对使用一次性塑料水瓶。而且，在完成攀登后我们正打算购买African Scenic Safaris的周边商品呢 :) 在接下来的5天里……伊曼纽尔带着我们逐一游览各个公园，为我们讲述每个公园的历史，还详细介绍了我们所见到的几十种动物。凭借他卓越的直觉与丰富的经验，我们得以亲眼目睹角马从起点到终点的迁徙过程，还看到了所有“非洲五大致命动物”以及所有“非洲五大丑陋动物”!!!!! 说实话，我之前去过一次坦桑尼亚，但当时只在桑给巴尔岛，因此讨厌那里。即便下榻像柏悦这样的五星级酒店，这里给人的感觉也完全就是个旅游陷阱。不过，与伊曼纽尔共度的5天时间改变了我对这个国家的负面印象；他对坦桑尼亚的热爱与自豪感体现在他做的每一件事中，这种情感极具感染力。我以前也曾在南非和乌干达参加过野生动物观光之旅，虽然那些行程中我也近距离见识了许多动物，但那些向导的讲解与讲述能力远无法与伊曼纽尔相提并论。确切地说……他们只是敷衍了事地带我们从一个地点带到另一个地点，除了说“这是一头狮子”之外几乎什么都没说。
简而言之：选择African Scenic Safaris吧！你不会后悔的。我已经在计划下次再去坦桑尼亚，通过他们安排另一次登山和狩猎之旅了。
