Challenge yourself on Africa’s highest peak with the Kilimanjaro - Machame Route, also known as the "Whiskey Route." This popular ascent is renowned for its varied, breathtaking scenery and steeper trails, making it a favorite among adventurous trekkers with some hiking experience.
Starting from Moshi, your journey includes a detailed trek briefing and equipment check before you set off into Kilimanjaro’s diverse landscapes. The Machame Route approaches from the southwest, crossing the Shira Plateau and offering an exhilarating scramble up the Lava Tower and a memorable climb up the Barranco Wall. Descending via the Mweka Route, trekkers are rewarded with ever-changing vistas and the thrill of traversing Kilimanjaro’s southern ice field.
Nights are spent in supplied tents at designated camps, with meals prepared by expert staff. One of the route’s key advantages is its strategic "climb high, sleep low" approach, which aids acclimatization and increases summit success rates. For those seeking an alternative challenge, the Western Breach provides an even more demanding path to the top. The Machame Route’s unique selling point is its combination of scenic beauty and acclimatization-friendly itinerary, making it one of the most successful and visually rewarding routes to the summit.
Step onto the legendary Marangu Route—famously dubbed the “Coca-Cola” route—for a classic 6-day Kilimanjaro trek. Renowned as the oldest and most established path to Africa’s summit, Marangu’s gradual slopes and hut accommodations make it one of the most accessible options for experienced travelers seeking a less technical climb.
While the route’s ascent and descent follow the same trail, its popularity peaks during the rainy season, when dry huts offer a welcome respite from wet ground. Although scenic variety is more limited compared to other routes, the ease of the path and shared dormitory-style huts are significant draws. For those with limited time, the minimum five-day requirement offers a swift yet rewarding ascent, with the option to add an extra day for better acclimatization.
The route’s unique selling point is its combination of comfort and accessibility, making it a favored choice for climbers who value tradition and convenience on their Kilimanjaro adventure.

This three-day, guided climb takes you to the top of Mount Meru in Tanzania. Mount Meru is the third highest peak in Africa and Tanzania's second highest mountain, with the elevation of 4,568m. Located in Arusha National Park, the mountain is less popular than its taller sibling, Mount Kilimanjaro. Nevertheless, it offers a great climbing experience and is significantly less crowded than Kilimanjaro.
The ascent is quite steep and the route to the summit passes over streams, through parklands, forests and a moorland. You will reach the summit via a narrow, barren ridge, which provides stunning views. The technical requirements for climbing Mount Meru are greater than on Kilimanjaro routes.
In addition to climbing the mountain, this trip also offers trekkers the chance to spot a wide variety of wildlife as the mountain falls within Arusha National Park.
We will drive you back to your accommodation in Moshi after the climb is over. Please scroll down to the itinerary section for more details.

What makes this trip stand out is its proven success rate and the spectacular, ever-changing vistas—from Shira’s sunsets to the iconic Barranco Wall.
