Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route

“I had a wonderful time hiking Kilimanjaro with Enosa Expeditions! I did the
7 day Lemosho hike. Enosa provided one (fluent English) tour guide, one
cook, and five porters. I was the only tourist on this trek. One of the
porters also spoke some English, and he served all my meals everyday.
Speaking of meals, I never dreamed that I would eat so well on this trek!
Everyday breakfast and dinner were huge multi-course meals, including a
variety of food groups, and all having genuinely great flavors. There did
seem to be a lot of heavy-carb meals to provide and maintain energy through
the hike.

Everyday, upon arrival to the camp site, my tent was already prepared with
my large trekking bag, sleeping bag, and dining essentials laid out neatly,
and every morning they would pack it all up for me and carry it all to the
next camp site. While hiking, there were many occasions that I needed either
some guidance about how to maneuver a particular difficult area or simply
needed a stabilizing hand, and James, my guide, was always there and always
very helpful.

I always felt well take care of, I always felt safe, and I always felt that
Enosa had my best interests in mind. Here are two examples to illustrate
this: 1) As someone else mentioned, an extra winter hat was provided by
Enosa before we started the trek, but I found I didn't need it and never
used it on the trek, so they didn't charge me for the hat, and 2) the
morning that I left Kilimanjaro, Noel, Enosa's primary business contact,
arrived exactly on time and drove me the hour from Moshi to the JRO airport
in Arusha. That trip cost me $50 USD when I arrived. I had not planned for
this; Noel simply offered, and I graciously accepted.

Thanks again, Noel! Thanks again, James and everyone else! I never could've
done this without you, and I'll remember this wonderful experience for the rest of my life!”

“Excellent”

“The trek went very well in general, the guide a porters were very professional, food was great. The boiled water gave me me a stomach bug on the second day, unfortunately, but it passed after vomiting a few times.... Had no difficulty at all except on the day we climbed to the summit. Getting up at 1AM was way too early, as I had barely got any sleep (if any). My body shut down half way up, was very tired, vomited a few times, but eventually made it after the sun came up. In hindsight, we should just started the trek around 5AM, as sleep is essential!... I only question that the guide decided to cut the trek short 1 day (6 days instead of 7), even though I had already paid for a full 7 days. This factored in to the tip I left them, which personally I find to be a very awkward moment in the experience. I think this should just be included in the cost. Keep this in mind, as apparently this happens a lot so they can get a day off, get fully paid for 7 days, AND expect a big tip.”

“I did the 7 day Kilimanjaro Lemosho route with Seven Wonders Safaris in July this year, and with the help of my amazing guide, Respick, and the very capable crew of porters and cook I successfully reached Uhuru Peak! The contact person of Seven Wonders on Bookmundi, Evelyn, was very responsive to all the questions I had and helped me to customise the trip to my travel needs. The guide was very kind and helpful and told me a lot about the local plant and wildlife that we encountered on the way up. Every evening he provided me with a briefing for the following day, along with clothing tips to go along with the weather. During the day he also advised me on things like drinking enough water, dealing with the altitude sickness and using the trekking poles. His English was rather good, and some of the porters and the cook also knew quite a bit of English and were always happy to strike up a conversation. The equipment provided by Seven Wonders like tents, sleeping mats, trekking poles etc were all in good condition. The food provided by the cook was really great and plentiful, my breakfast and dinner on Kili were better than what I got in my hotel in Arusha (really!). Breakfast usually consisted of porridge, fruit, sausages, eggs and toast. I got a different dish for dinner every night; Always started with soup and then usually things like rice with vegetables and chicken, pasta, fish and chips etc. I was also provided with hot water during every meal for making tea, coffee etc. All in all a really great experience and I didn't encounter any issues or problems with the crew or with Seven Wonders, which allowed me to enjoy every minute of the trip and focus on getting to the top! I would definitely recommend booking here if you are looking for a budget company to get you to Uhuru Peak.”

“My friend and I have chosen the best provider for Kilimanjaro climb service. Altezza Travel is one of many tour operators who offer truly personal service. I was communicating with a manager named Ekaterina. She assisted us during the entire period of our staying in Tanzania. Also, she was very responsive to our requests and even helped us to collect and deliver our climbing equipment.

Altezza team gave us the best team climbing support. The head guide Rashid and his assistant Stephen are extremely helpful! We had team consists of 13 people for two of us!! We can't even imagine how many people would be with us. I've read on many forums that most of the tour operators provide only one guide for two people. Here you can feel absolutely safe and in good hands with head guide, his assistant, camp master, cooker, waiter and 8 porters. All these guys have controlled every aspect of our climbing! By the way, Altezza gave the information to Rashid that I had a birthday and cooker made for me a birthday cake.

Summing it up, our climbing staff is treated so well. After then, we again felt we made the best choice with the tour operator.”

“I did Lemosho 7 day route with Enosa expeditions and it was a great experience. Communication with Noel was a breeze and everything was as promised. I was supposed to join another group but since their luggage go delayed, they could not start the climb on the scheduled date.
However, Enosa Expeditions ensured that this had no impact on my plans. I was assigned my own crew and started the climb as planned. Very professional on their part.

The guide, cook and the entire crew were a great company throughout the climb.
I recommend Enosa for anyone planning to climb kilimanjaro.”
