Climbing Holidays (Tough)
Gane and Marshall was founded in 1991 as a trekking outfitter specialising in Kilimanjaro climbs. High-altitude trekking is at the heart of what we do, and a passion for many on our staff. As a small team, we only promote climbs that we have an in-depth and first-hand knowledge of.
