I have just returned from trekking Kokoda. What a fantastic experience. Having turned 60 this year I was apprehensive as to how fit I needed to be. Well I took Dan Towler's advice and found it to be very informative and helpful and felt I coped fine. I can not stress enough to anyone contemplating this trek to follow what Dan has to say and you should have no problems. Thanks Dan. Through being fit enough it was good to actually enjoy every day rather than just to survive it. Kokoda Trekking was a very organised company which was a joy to deal with. I also recommend them to anyone. You can see that Gail is really trying to help the PNG people. Well, the porters – what can I say about them – we just loved everyone of them and if I ever went back again I would love to have all the same porters – I am sure though from what I have read they are all wonderful. The fuzzy wuzzy angel is still very much alive. Terry.
