Group hike with Kilisa Tours I joined a group hike with Kilisa Tours as a solo traveler, and it turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life. Everything about the service was wonderful - from the smooth organization and warm welcome to the professional guides, friendly porters, and excellent food on the mountain. Even though I started alone, I never once felt like it. The team made me feel part of the group right away, and their constant support and smiles gave me confidence all the way to the summit. Climbing Kilimanjaro is challenging, but with Kilisa Tours it felt safe, well cared for, and truly enjoyable. I couldn t recommend them enough to anyone planning this adventure!
