The Machame Route—revered as the 'Whiskey Route'—offers a spectacular and varied climb to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro over nine unforgettable days. This trek, starting at the Machame Gate just a short drive from Aishi Machame Hotel, takes you from tropical rainforest through all climate zones, culminating in the arctic summit. Designed with optimal acclimatization in mind and boasting high success rates (94–95%), this adventure is ideal for experienced travelers and hiking enthusiasts. The unique highlight? Gradual elevation, diverse landscapes, and comprehensive support—including guides, gear, permits, and meals—ensuring a safe, thrilling ascent to Africa’s highest peak.
I just finished a climb to Kilimanjaro through the Machame route with this local tour operator. The travel guide and his team cared perfectly for us—even on some rainy days. There was always hot tea on the way and a bed-bottle at night. The food was amazing—fresh fruit and veggies every day. And we all made it to the summit—first group and right in time for sunrise. Could not have been better. Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience!
We made a tracking to the Kilimanjaro summit in January 2024. It was the best experience ever! Super professional company, best guides, porters, etc. Great, very warm service and food. Lead guide Stanford, second guide Osward, and all the team, you are the best. Thank you!
I spent about two weeks in Tanzania and did a private safari and Kilimanjaro hike with this tour operator. They helped plan everything and ensured that the trip went smoothly. The safari was incredible; my friend and I got to see the Big Five! Hiking up Kilimanjaro was hassle-free; the guides and porters were exceptional and ensured that we were properly acclimatized. Every day we were fed hot meals, had medical check-ups and had time to rest. Would love to hike it again next year!
