Home Testimonials Von Campbell

A big THANK YOU for everything you have done for me the past couple of years. Your company allowed me to live out dreams in my life that I never thought would be possible.

Just a couple years ago I was distraught at having REI cancel the Everest Base Camp trip for a second time, the latest because they had stopped doing all international trips. I put a half hearted comment on 14ers.com site on Facebook asking if anyone knew of a company that might step in and help. Within an hour I had received a message from Ian asking me to message him. The rest was history.

At 65 years old I can proudly say in the past year I have spent the night at Everest Base Camp as well as summited Kilimanjaro. I have made friends with guys on the other side of the world, some who may be visiting me and my family this year. Preparing/training for these trips have made me change how I eat and maintain myself physically. I am doing things I could never do 20 or more years ago. I truly believe my training for EBC allowed me to complete the Triple Bypass bike race two years ago.

I now have a renewed interest in completing the remaining 11 14ers in Colorado as well as entering other cycling adventures. I’m probably done as far as international trips go but I can assure you there is only one company I will ever recommend and that is Ian Taylor Trekking. Your company is first class, Laura and you are first class.. I could tell, whether I was in Nepal or Tanzania that I was with the best company there is.
