Triple Wood is the perfect seasonal expression for fall. Its bright gold color and bursts of peat, vanilla and fruit flavors embody the fall season and bring you back to Islay, the land that gives Laphroaig® its unique peaty notes.”

Laphroaig  is a Single Malt Scotch Whisky not only with a distinct taste, but also story in every bottle. In addition to each bottle of Laphroaig offering the world’s #1 Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, but buyers also get a gift of friendship.

If climbing mighty Kilimanjaro in Africa is on your ever growing Bucket List, then make it even more memorable with a Kilimanjaro hike on Christmas Eve.

Kilimanjaro is quite impressive. Composed of three volcanic cones, it’s the highest mountain in Africa. Located in Kilimanjaro National Park in Tanzania, Kilimanjaro is 5,895 meters tall or 19,341 feet.

Tusker Trail is a world-class adventure travel company and will lead an incredible, Kilimanjaro hike. It’s an opportunity to reach the summit of Kilimanjaro on Christmas Eve 2013.

Another advantage is that Lemosho offers one of the more scenic routes up Kilimanjaro. In addition, it doesn’t require a midnight summit climb.

The Kilimanjaro hike features 10 days of climbing through some of the most pristine and diverse terrain in the world, delicious food, and expert guides from Tusker Trail.

Eddie Frank is the Founder and Owner of Tusker Trail and has been expertly leading treks up Kilimanjaro for more than 37 years. With 48 completed Kilimanjaro climbs, Eddie Frank has cemented Tusker Trail’s reputation as the top climbing outfitter on Kilimanjaro.

With their expertise and experience, Tusker Trail boasts an impressive Kilimanjaro hike summit rate of 99%. That result is more than twice the average on the mighty mountain.

For those worried about unforeseen medical issues, don’t. The Tusker Trail team is top notch. Their unparalleled Kilimanjaro climbing experience plus medically-trained mountain guides are well trained to handle high altitude emergencies. Their guides also have the most extensive medical training in the hiking business.

The Christmas Kili climb is scheduled to depart on December 15th, 2013. The Kilimanjaro hike package price is $5,190 per person.
