On my first trip I was accompanied by my wife. A friend of mine and his wife also went along. However, knowing what I do now, I'd have no reservations about going it alone, and have done so several times. Also, you should know that all reputable outfitters, or their representative will meet you at the airport, assist you with your luggage, and get you to camp. You will not be alone, and will be well looked after from the time you clear customs until you are safely back at the airport for your return home.
