Incredible scenery and higher rate of getting to the summit
They did an amazing job, took care of my every need, and got me up the mountain in style. Big shout out to my guide Rama, my chef Kuruwa, and my porters Muhammad Ali, Sariri, Rezwan (Numba D), Moyo, and Salim.
This was my second trip to Tanzania, as I was here with my 16-year-old son on October 2017 ... It was memorable and unforgettable, promised to come back and so I came with my 23-year-old daughter this year. This visit was as good as the first. We arrived to check in early, meet the tour group we were sharing the experience with and they were awesome, got geared up and then started our adventure We did the 6-days trek via the Machame route which is a very beautiful scenery and it was worthy every minute. The landscapes are really amazing. The hiking is tough but thanks to the guides who were fantastic and reassuring and did put our minds at ease and answered questions while gave information every step of the way. The porters were Incredible Fresh, delicious meals everyday made the adventure even better. And shout out to our chef Juma a.k.a Mama Mayoo, lol thats was what we were told to call him The WHOLE CREW were friendly and experienced had so much energy and they made everything funny and exciting! [They seem genuinely glad to be of service to you] as they provided a great experience for us. They made my daughter feel like a queen and went above and beyond their role and made us feel relaxed and comfortable with the whole trek definitely worth every penny The best part was the experience, because this is really a lifetime experience that we will not forget. We highly recommend this event for those seeking a safe, but breath-taking, experience in Kilimanjaro mountain Climb.
Seeking an ascent that balances adventure with acclimatization? The Six-Day Kilimanjaro Climb: Machame Route—popularly known as the Whiskey route—offers an exhilarating trek for young adults and experienced travelers alike.
This route’s topography allows trekkers to “climb high and sleep low,” significantly boosting summit success rates. Traverse diverse landscapes—lush rainforest, the sweeping Shira plateau, and dramatic alpine vistas—before joining other classic routes for the final push. While this trek can be completed in six days, a seventh day is often recommended to enhance acclimatization and rest before the final ascent.
The unique selling point: Machame’s combination of spectacular scenery and strategic acclimatization, making it the preferred choice among serious climbers eager to conquer Kilimanjaro in style.
