2008-02-21 A series of minor eruptions on Lengai

There has been a series of minor eruptions on Lengai and the people living close to the mountain have been forced to move in case of a larger eruption. A larger eruption is not likely going to affect our hiking tour in Tanzania in October. BUT if we won’t be able to climb Lengai there is a lot of other attractions in the area: water falls, mountains, valleys, animals and the amazing Lake Natron, so there will be something to do on the last day of trekking.

2006-12-04 Typhoon

A typhoon has hit the area of Bicol in the Philippines, and hundreds of people have been killed and hundreds more are missing after heavy storms that caused floods and landslides last week. Every year the Philippine Islands are hit by typhoons, but they seldom cause this much damage and suffering. The typhoon season in the Philippines normally stretches from May to November. Our thoughts are with the people who are suffering from this disaster.

Our tours will be conducted as planned since the areas we will be visiting are not affected.
