Itinerary
Chase adventure up Kilimanjaro’s most scenic trail with the "6 Days Machame Route whiskey Route" tour. Known as the "Whiskey Route," Machame offers stunning variety—ascending via one path and descending another, with porters handling your gear and meals prepared by a dedicated cook. Sleep in tents pitched by support staff and dine under the stars, with views from Shira to Barranco Wall making every day a visual feast. The intermediate ascent to Lava Tower followed by a descent to Barranco Camp is key to acclimatization and summit success. The tour’s unique draw lies in its combination of rugged adventure, scenic diversity, and a support crew that ensures comfort and safety for even the most intrepid hikers.

Customer Reviews
The best trekking experience of a lifetime - conquering Kilimanjaro!
I always dreamed of conquering Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa, and the team has been a great partner in fulfilling this dream. I chose the Machame Route because it's a little more challenging but offers a lot of beautiful scenery. The sunsets of Shira and walking through the mist of the Barranco Wall - all in one word, it was a wonderful experience. Guides and porters were always on hand; they handled everything from the pitch of the tent to the cooking of the food perfectly. I'm grateful to this team.
