Damavand Guestbook and Trip Report - Jean-Claude Amiet

Jean-Claude Amiet – From Switzerland/Canada – Aug 2014

I would like, again, to express my profound gratitude for everything you have done for me to enjoy such a fantastic experience. Your kind and patient help regarding the visa, the perfectly reliable professional organization and your flexibility regarding my own personal desires made my Mt. Damavand Iran experience a very special one.


Thanks to your assistance, I was able to cross out my 5th mountain on the road to achieve my goal of climbing all of the 7 volcanic summits. For the ones that have some safety concerns, I can only share that I felt very safe all along, in fact much safer than lots of places elsewhere in the world where I climbed! I would definitely recommend your amazing services to anyone looking for a smooth mountain trip to Iran.

A very special thank you for my fantastic guide Parvaneh Kazemi, it was a real honor to climb with her. Kind Regards
JC
