- Leonsi· April 28th, 2025Unforgettable 7-Day Machame Route Trek – Safe, Supportive, and Exceptionally Organized We recently completed the 7-day Machame Route trek to Mount Kilimanjaro with Kilisa Tours & Safaris, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience—made even more remarkable by the company’s exceptional focus on safety and professionalism. From the very first briefing to the final descent, every detail was handled with care. The Kilisa team made safety a top priority throughout the entire journey. Our guides were experienced, attentive, and well-trained in high-altitude care. They conducted daily health checks, including oxygen level monitoring and regular assessments to ensure we were acclimatizing properly. The 7-day Machame Route itself offers an excellent acclimatization profile, and the Kilisa team managed the pace perfectly with their steady “pole pole” approach. Their guidance made summit night both safe and successful for our group. The support crew—porters, cooks, and camp staff—went above and beyond. Camps were always ready on time, meals were nutritious and energizing, and clean drinking water was always available. Hygiene was clearly a priority, and that made a big difference in our comfort and confidence on the mountain. Summiting Uhuru Peak was an emotional and proud moment, and we owe so much of our success to the careful preparation, encouragement, and safety-first approach of the Kilisa Tours & Safaris team. If you're planning to climb Kilimanjaro and want an operator that combines experience, care, and genuine passion for what they do, we wholeheartedly recommend Kilisa Tours & Safaris. Their commitment to your safety and enjoyment ensures that your adventure will be both memorable and meaningful.Show more
- Patric· April 25th, 2025Safe, Seamless and spectacular I recently completed the 7-day Lemosho Route hike to Mount Kilimanjaro, and the experience far exceeded my expectations—especially in terms of safety, professionalism, and overall organization. From the moment we began the trek, the crew’s attention to safety was clear. Our guides were exceptionally well-trained and experienced, conducting daily health checks that included monitoring oxygen levels and asking detailed questions about how we felt. They were incredibly proactive in spotting early signs of altitude sickness and adjusted the pace and rest stops accordingly. This gave our entire group the confidence and peace of mind to fully enjoy the journey. The Lemosho Route itself is both beautiful and well-paced for acclimatization. We walked through rainforest, crossed high moorland, and trekked over alpine desert—each day offering a new challenge and new scenery. Thanks to the route’s gradual ascent and the crew’s careful pacing, everyone in our group adapted well and reached the summit successfully. The support team—porters, chef, and camp staff—also played a huge role in keeping us safe and comfortable. Camps were set up promptly and securely, meals were warm, nutritious, and catered to our energy needs, and clean drinking water was always provided. Hygiene at camp was clearly a priority, and handwashing stations and daily sanitization made a big difference. On summit night, the guides ensured we were fully prepared both mentally and physically. Their encouragement, constant monitoring, and careful pacing made a very difficult climb feel achievable and safe. If you’re looking to hike Kilimanjaro and safety is a top concern, I highly recommend the Lemosho Route—and even more so, doing it with a professional, experienced team that prioritizes your health every step of the way. It was not just a successful summit, but a safe and unforgettable journey to the Roof of Africa.Show more
- ziada· April 18th, 2025I recently completed the 7-day Machame Route hike to Mount Kilimanjaro with Kilisa Tours & Safaris, and it was truly the adventure of a lifetime. From beginning to end, the trek was exceptionally well-organized. The guides demonstrated deep knowledge, patience, and unwavering support—particularly during the summit ascent, where their encouragement and steady pacing proved invaluable. They maintained a consistent "pole pole" (slowly, slowly) rhythm and continuously checked in to ensure we were acclimatizing properly and feeling well. The Machame Route itself offers breathtaking diversity. Each day revealed new landscapes—from the lush rainforest on day one to the dramatic Shira Plateau, the exhilarating Barranco Wall, and the stark beauty of the alpine desert approaching Barafu Camp. The route’s acclimatization profile is excellent, and I am confident it contributed significantly to our group’s high summit success rate. The support crew—porters, cooks, and camp staff—exceeded expectations. We were warmly welcomed at each camp with hot meals and comfortable resting areas. The quality of the food was remarkable for a mountain expedition—nutritious, hearty, and far above what I had anticipated. Reaching Uhuru Peak was both emotional and exhilarating. Witnessing the sunrise from the Roof of Africa was a deeply rewarding moment and one of the proudest accomplishments of my life. For anyone considering a Kilimanjaro climb, I highly recommend the 7-day Machame Route. It offers the perfect balance of challenge, scenic variety, and effective altitude adaptation. I strongly encourage choosing Kilisa Tours & Safaris as your operator—they deliver an outstanding and unforgettable experience.Show more
