Our trip was amazing - seeing the rhinos at Matobo was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Our CEOs were knowledgeable and fun, and we enjoyed sitting under the stars at night with our group.

I think the whole experience was so well organized and included a lot of exciting and fun activities. The group was well taken care of, well informed about what would happen next and not to mention warmly welcomed to Africa by the best CEO and driver we could have wished for! Thank you, Masivu and Anthony, what a duo!

It was the best experience I could have asked for and I am so sad to be finished. Thought I would be sick of camping after 3 weeks but wish I continued with the longer trip now. The CEOs were honestly brilliant , Phillip came across as more of a friend than someone who was at work. He honestly made the trip Unbeleivable and is a great chef. He deserves a massive raise cause he literally made the trip. I couldn't imagine how different it would have been if he wasn't there. Nothing was ever an issue and just absolutely best craic !

Top experience. CEOs (Francois and Lulu) were the most skilled travel professionals i have ever met, the main transportation ( the Lando ) was pure gold, the itinerary was a perfect combo between Safaris and Chill/Party. Additionally, the group I shared the experience with was special. 10/10

This tour provider hits it out of the park on the big wins: safety, logistics, and expertise. Their guides conducted twice daily health checks, measuring blood oxygen to ensure we were acclimating appropriately and they had medication ready to cover any malady. On summit day they carried oxygen as a safety measure that I found necessary after experiencing altitude sickness and the team even provided it to another suffering climber whose guides were not carrying oxygen. Not all guide services have these safety measures!
The logistics flow was impressive from the get-go with airport and hotel shuttles. The camp logistics on-mountain was even more so. We’d depart camp after breakfast, they’d have tea and snacks set up along the trail, and we’d arrive at lunch to find the mess tent already set up with lunch ready, just to find it and our sleeping tents set up again at the end of the hike with tea and popcorn waiting and dinner shortly to follow. The consideration that the Porter team put into our comfort was overwhelming.
The expertise of the team was unquestionable. The company clearly takes hiring very seriously and recruits knowledgeable guides. Professionals across the board whom we greatly trusted.
With the big wins checked off in style, the company goes above and beyond with personal touches that make the trip truly memorable. I think the most memorable for us was the tradition and ceremony that the team brought to the experience - celebratory group singing and dancing especially, even cakes and champagne! Then small things like hot water bottles to keep sleeping bags warm really made us feel well cared for.
Wij hebben de 7-daagse Lemosho route gelopen en dankzij dit fantastische team hebben we samen met onze gidsen Ringo en Mahamoud de top van Kilimanjaro – Uhuru Peak – bereikt!
Ringo en Mahamoud waren buitengewoon deskundig, geduldig en motiverend. Hun kennis van de berg, hun aandacht voor ons welzijn en hun constante aanmoediging hebben een enorme rol gespeeld in ons succes. Zonder hen hadden we dit nooit gehaald.
Daarnaast willen we ook het hele ondersteunende team bedanken: de dragers die met zoveel toewijding alles de berg op brachten, de ober die ons telkens met een vriendelijke glimlach bediende en natuurlijk de chef, die elke dag opnieuw heerlijke en voedzame maaltijden bereidde. Het voelde als pure luxe om op deze manier verzorgd te worden tijdens zo’n uitdagende trekking.
De combinatie van professionaliteit, gastvrijheid en persoonlijke aandacht maakte deze ervaring onvergetelijk. Wij kunnen van harte aanbevelen aan iedereen die de Kilimanjaro wil beklimmen!
