Machame Route (also known to as the "Whiskey Route") is the most beautiful route up Kilimanjaro with high summit success rate. It rewards hikers with scenic splendors. From late afternoon sunsets at Shira to the misty revelations of Kibo at the great Barranco Wall, witness a scenic "slide show" as you trek to the top of the world's highest free-standing mountain.
There is an added benefit to taking the Machame Route, as you are afforded the most valuable commodity on the mountain: acclimatization. The route takes you high to Lava Tower (4,630m) on Day 3 and brings you down by nearly 700m for an overnight at Barranco camp (3,950m). This is the secret to successful acclimatization.
(Note: All your equipment and supplies are portered and a cook prepares all your meals. While the accommodation on the Marangu route is in huts, the Machame route offers strictly tents only accommodation.)
See the itinerary section for more details about this tour.
All bike tours are guided and include the use of mountain bikes and cycling helmets. Multi-day rides are fully supported with a sag wagon. Bicycle tour can be the centre-piece of your African adventure or added as an extension to any itinerary.
The trail around Africa‘s tallest mountain and highest volcano is 230 miles long and involves 16000 ft of climbing. It takes us through solitary rainforests, fertile fields of crop and through wild, dry acacia rich savannah, which is the home of the Maasai.
The tracks around the cloud shrouded, snow-capped roof of Africa are mainly dusty, sometimes rocky, with a few asphalt roads. We spend a night in a Maasai cultural village to get to know their customs, songs and dishes. On a safari in Arusha National Park see some of Africa´s amazing wildlife.

Very comprehensive and wonderfully varied tour with a lovely and knowledgeable leader, Omar. Some long driving days, but with stops for short visits. Mixture of hotels, some better than others, but all authentic and interesting. Food was often sadly disappointing and unvaried. Would be good if some research could be done on safe restaurant options in the towns on the itinerary. Two trips into two deserts for overnight stays were particularly impressive. All in all I would definitely recommend this tour.

Embarking on this iconic journey, you are invited to traverse the storied waters of the Nile, embarking from the grandeur of Cairo, where the Pyramids and Sphinx stand as eternal sentinels of Egypt's rich history. Your voyage unfolds southward, navigating through the heartland of ancient civilization, toward the enchanting realms that lie between Luxor and Aswan.
Venturing beyond the beaten path, this expedition unveils a rare opportunity. Historically inaccessible, the lower reaches of the Nile between Cairo and Abydos have long eluded the typical tourist trail. Yet, a select few now have the chance to partake in a journey that spans this lesser-trodden terrain. Few and far between are the vessels that undertake the full passage from Cairo to Luxor each year, making this voyage a truly exclusive experience.
As the ship charts its course, you'll encounter hidden gems of antiquity, such as Tel Amarna, Beni Hassan, and Hermopolis, where time seems to stand still amidst the remnants of ancient civilizations. Along the verdant banks of the Nile, glimpses of rural life unfold, offering a window into the everyday existence of the Egyptian people.
Upon reaching Luxor, the pace quickens, and the river teems with activity. Explorations on the west bank unveil the majestic Valley of the Kings, the resplendent Temple of Queen Hatchepsut, and the towering Colossi of Memnon, each a testament to the grandeur of Egypt's pharaonic past. Across the waters, the east bank beckons with the monumental Karnak and Luxor Temples, where gods and pharaohs once held court amidst towering columns and intricate hieroglyphs.
For those embarking on the extended 15-day voyage, the journey continues southward, past the ancient temples of Edfu and Komombo, toward the final destination of Aswan. Here, amidst the tranquil waters, the island temple of Philae rises in splendor, a testament to the enduring legacy of Egypt's spiritual heritage. Optional excursions beckon to the legendary temples of Abu Simbel, relocated to higher ground to escape the encroaching waters of Lake Nasser.
As the journey draws to a close, the ship bids farewell, either in Luxor following the 12-day expedition or in Aswan after the extended 15-day odyssey. From these ancient shores, travelers embark on their homeward journey, their hearts filled with the timeless echoes of Egypt's storied past, their minds enriched by the treasures unearthed along the banks of the mighty Nile.

The Rongai route is the only route that approaches Kilimanjaro from the north, close to the Kenyan border. Though gaining popularity amongst climbers, Rongai has low traffic. It is the preferred route for those looking for an alternative to the crowded Marangu route, for those who would like a more remote hike, and for those who are climbing during the rainy season (the North side receives less precipitation).
The Rongai route is one of the easiest route up to Kilimanjaro summit and it joins the Marangu route at Kibo hut. The minimum number of days required for this route is six days, and seven days are recommended. We have designed the trip for 7 days as that will allow for proper acclimatization on the mountain.
Wildlife can be seen on the lower slopes such as buffalo's, Elephants, Baboons and monkeys together with different species of birds.
Although the scenery is not as varied as the western routes, the Rongai route makes up for this by passing through true wilderness areas for days before joining the Marangu route at Kibo camp. On the way down this route goes together with the Marangu route.
The Rongai route as such is a moderately difficult route and relatively easier than other routes up Kilimanjaro. It is therefore highly recommended, especially for those with less backpacking experience, as the probability of reaching the summit will be higher.

This 6-day tour showcases the best of Tanzania wildlife and will take you through the Northern Safari Circuit in Tanzania. It includes Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater Conservancy.
A visit to the Ngorongoro Crater is an experience of a lifetime. There are few places that have wildlife densities and variety at this level. It is not unusual to see the big five in one day! It also boasts the most amazing setting with a backdrop of the 600m/1968ft high crater wall.
Lake Manyara National Park provides the perfect introduction to Tanzania’s birdlife. More than 400 species have been recorded here and even a first-time visitor to Africa might reasonably expect to observe 100 of these in one day. Highlights include thousands of pink-hued flamingos on their perpetual migration, as well as other large waterbirds such as pelicans, cormorants, and storks.
There is more to the Serengeti than large mammals. Gaudy agama lizards and rock hyraxes scuffle around the surfaces of the park’s isolated granite koppies. A full 100 varieties of dung beetle have been recorded, as have 500-plus bird species, ranging from the outsized ostrich and bizarre secretary bird of the open grassland to the black eagles that soar effortlessly above the Lobo Hills.
Please refer to the itinerary to find out what you'll be doing each day on this safari tour.
