Kilimanjaro Machame route Tours in Fall

We did the 7-day Machame Route to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro with this local travel specialist in October and were more than satisfied all round. It starts with the organized pick-up from the airport, including refreshments and a briefing for the next few days. Our two guides, Michael and Oscar, accompanied us well throughout the 7 days and, despite the snow and bitter cold, kept us motivated to reach the summit, especially on the night of the summit. Above all, we liked the fact that they adapted to our speed. Our cook consistently provided us with super tasty, varied and sufficient food - you never go hungry here. The porters also did a great job and always had a nice smile on their faces. The camping equipment should also be highlighted: our tent had an awning with a table and chairs so that we could always enjoy our meal and afternoon tea in the dry. The private portable toilet also offered extra comfort. In summary, we were super happy with our 7-day tour and couldn't have imagined a better team than this. Thank you so much!

We are happy that we chose this local travel specialist for our Kilimanjaro trekking trip to Tanzania. They helped us to prepare well for the trek, with hiring of the items we did not have with us. The actual trek was quite tough, however we had a good team supporting us. They kept us safe, nourished, in good health and motivated. They even helped us when we found it hard to continue. The overall experience was incredible - well planned and executed.

"Thanks to the agency's expertise and support, I was able to witness breathtaking views, experience the unique ecosystem of Mount Kilimanjaro, and ultimately reach the summit. The sense of accomplishment upon reaching Uhuru Peak is indescribable, and I am grateful to the agency for assisting me in achieving this feat. The memories created during this trek will forever hold a special place in my heart. If you're considering embarking on a Kilimanjaro trekking adventure via the Machame Route, I passionately recommend this agency. Their exceptional planning, experienced guides, supportive staff, and commitment to safety and comfort ensured a truly unforgettable journey. With their expertise, you can rest assured that your Kilimanjaro trekking experience will be as magnificent as mine. . "

Es war das schönste was wir je erlebt haben. Von Anfang an hatten wir eine top Betreuung durch unsere Guides und das Unternehmen. So gut wie auf der Kilimajaro Besteigung haben wir selten gegessen. Desweiteren war die Ausrüstung welche die Organisation gestellt hat in super Zustand. Während der Wanderung hat die Crew immer möglichst ruhige Schlafplätze am Rand der Camps gesucht was sehr angenehm war. Unsere Guids waren Rager und Fraterini die ein super eingespieltes Team sind. Dank den beiden haben wir es ohne Probleme bis auf den Gipfel geschafft. Auch der Rest des Teams hat uns bei allem unterstützt und zu jeder Zeit für gute Stimmung gesorgt

Our tour operator helped us plan an awe-inspiring trip to Tanzania. The owner was a wonderful partner in working with our complicated schedule.. — He seamlessly interwove our trips and made sure that flights, transfers, drivers and our local travel team in were in sync. The local team at safari camps met us on time with professional drivers and porters. They were eager to ensure that our trip was memorable and that whatever little wrinkles occurred were addressed immediately to our satisfaction. We spent days in Lake Natron and imencely interacted with Maasai People on their daily activities (Don’t miss this), All the accommodations were excellent with the staff so kind, the food wonderful, and the pace a pleasure. We saw many wildlife and mix our self in culture. We are so happy we experienced the three parts (safari, Kili climb, beach) in that order. I loved these different areas of Tanzania (and there is much more to still see!). .Some may say this was a once-in-a-lifetime trip, but it planted the seed to a new love of Africa. I can't wait to plan the next adventure, and for sure it will be with this tour company itself.

We had an incredible experience on the Machame Route to the Summit of Mount Kilimanjaro! The Team put together by this local travel specialist was amazing, with our guides Benedict and Brighton taking care of us and adapting to our strengths and weaknesses, and the cook Adam and the waiter James providing us with delicious food three times a day. The porters were carrying our bags and all the gear, tents, food and water, and everything was set up perfectly by the time we reached the camps in the afternoon. The trip with this agency is supposed to be a budget trip, which we did not feel at all: We got hot water twice a day to wash ourselves, the tent was spacious and the meals were lush. Two things which I did not like about booking this trip: First, there are non-optional "tips" for all the staff included, which you have to pay at the end of the trip. These are roughly 10 USD for a porter, 15 USD for a cook and 20 to 25 USD for a guide, per day. So for two people doing the trip these are another 700 to 800 USD (combined) in "tips", which you pay on top of the whole booking fee. This is true for any agency you book with, however it needs to be declared on the trip description rather than in some email three weeks after booking. Second, the organiser was extremely slow in replying to our questions. Some of our questions were never answered. In case that happens to you also, I would recommend asking for the organiser's phone number.
