Itinerary

Ascend Africa’s highest peak on the classic 6 Day Mount Kilimanjaro Trekking – Marangu Route, renowned as the original and most established path up the mountain. Often called the "Coca-Cola" route, Marangu is favored for its gradual slopes and relative comfort, making it the most accessible trek for those new to high-altitude climbing. Unique to Marangu, you'll sleep in dormitory-style huts, offering shelter and camaraderie after a day of trekking.

Though the minimum duration is five days, a six-day itinerary is strongly recommended for proper acclimatization and a better chance at summit success. Along the way, marvel at Kilimanjaro’s ever-changing landscapes, from lush rainforest to alpine meadows and the stark beauty of the summit zone.

This trekking tour is ideal for travelers seeking a classic Kilimanjaro experience with added comfort and a gentler climb. It’s perfect for those who appreciate a supportive environment and reliable infrastructure. The standout feature of this trip package is the hut accommodation—unique among the mountain’s routes—making it a top pick for those who prefer not to camp. Whether you’re a first-time trekker or an experienced hiker looking for a straightforward ascent, the Marangu Route offers a memorable and attainable Kilimanjaro adventure.
