About
A company in Ulaanbaatar, founded and run by Gangaamaa Badamgarav, the first Mongolian to complete the 7 summits and the first to climb K2. It began in 1997 as the Ganga-Everest Foundation and has organised expeditions since 2002, for Mongolian and foreign climbers. Its 7 summits trips are Aconcagua by the normal route or the Polish Glacier, Kilimanjaro by the Machame or Marangu route with a Tanzania safari (one version adds Zanzibar), and Elbrus from the south with a few days in Sochi. It also runs climbs of Khüiten in the Mongolian Altai, Belukha, the 7,000 m peaks of the Pamirs and the Tian Shan, Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn, and treks to the Everest and K2 base camps. Its pages are in Mongolian, with most trips also in English.

- Kilimanjaro? Unconfirmed
Why this matters
Kilimanjaro — Tanzanian guides and porters are required by law on every Kilimanjaro climb, so every company uses them: that says nothing about a company. What differs is whether the company you book with sets the itinerary and sends its own leader, or sells you a local operator’s scheduled departure under its own name.
