About us
"The Lost World " company was created in January, 1993 by the chief of the Alpine Rescue Kamchatka Service Nikolay Kruglyakov.
An experienced mountain climbing instructor since 1980 Nikolay has led many ascents in the Caucasus, Tien Shan, and Pamir. He has also conducted numerous expeditions to all of the most interesting parts of Kamchatka.
The "LW" team takes pride in its high level of professionalism. All of our guides have undergone professional training at climbing schools and/or have many years of experience guiding groups in Kamchatka. Sociable and cheerful, they will make your trip unforgettable.
Our company owns all the necessary equipment to organize and accomplish any travel within Kamchatka. Whether in the countryside or the city we will cook many delicious Russian style dishes for each expedition so there is absolutely no need to worry about the quality of food. If any client wishes to specify food preferences for the group or individuals, e.g. vegetarian menu, we will do our best to accommodate them. Our clients are always very pleasantly surprised by the variety and flavor of meals we prepare.
