    The tour was really well organized and our guide Nestory was amazing. Very professional and nice. He has really good eyes to spot the animals and explains everything about the park and animals in a way that is simple and very interesting.

    Asked on June 18th, 2023

    Is it good for beginners hike? I did hikes in the past but not the high altitude hikes.

    Tour Details
    • Travel Africa Safari AgencyOperator•Written June 2023

      We think this is the best route because it is at least the easiest path on the mountain, given its gradual slope. It is also the only route that offers sleeping huts in dormitory-style accommodations.
