Embark on the most popular Kilimanjaro trekking route—the Marangu, often called the Coca-Cola route for its reputation as a relatively accessible climb. Unlike other routes, Marangu offers hut accommodations in place of tents, providing added comfort and protection from the elements. The trek begins at around 6,000 feet and, like all others, ends at the summit, making it an appealing choice for those who favor convenience. While some attempt the climb in five days, six or seven days are recommended for better acclimatization and summit success. This tour package’s unique appeal lies in its hut-based lodging, which offers a more comfortable option for trekkers looking for an approachable yet authentic Kilimanjaro experience.

The route’s climb-high, sleep-low strategy aids acclimatization and boosts summit success rates, while nights in tents under the stars appeal to those with a taste for adventure. A thorough equipment check and pre-trek briefing ensure you’re well prepared for this iconic journey, making this trekking package a favorite for experienced hikers seeking both challenge and visual splendor.

One the seven main routes used to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the Machame route is the most popular path. It is the route of choice for many people because it provides impressive views and a variety of habitats. About 50% of all climbers, and most seasoned climbers, choose the Machame route.
The Machame route is also known as the Whiskey route, given its reputation for being a tough climb, in contrast to the easier Marangu route, which is known as the Coca Cola route. Unlike the gradual incline and hut accommodations found on the Marangu Route, the climbers on Machame hike steeper trails, for longer distances, while sleeping in tents.
Despite it being a little more difficult it is highly recommended because it provides a fantastic trail and great views along the way. We are looking very to taking you on a trip of a lifetime.
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.
