  • 5  Days Mount Kilimanjaro Hike - Marangu Route reviewer 1
    · December 11th, 2021
    The 6 day Machame route was a huge success. The team at Afrishare was exceptional from start to finish. Ibrahim was very lovely to communicate with. Honestly, I loved every minute of it. My guide Adam was so fun. Considering I spent 7 days with him, it was a very enjoyable experience. My life felt very safe in their hands. Highly recommend! Celestine, Jomo, Adam, Siddiqi, Suleiman, Agostino, Steven, thank you very much for helping me get to the top!

    Very nice and competent guides and crew, the cabins were clean and the food excellent. However, one should factor in a few hundred dollars tip in addition to the booking cost, which is usually paid to the crew at the end of the tour.

    Our guides were Peter & Alex. All the team did a really good job. Always on time, very helpful. Guides showed us a lot of interesting plants. Good language. Very good chef Daniel, we were surprised by diversity of dishes prepared given the difficult mountain conditions. No problems with airport transfer.

    Excellent service provided by guides - Peter & Alex. Always on time, clear communication, very helpful. Motivated us to reach the summit, adjusted the pace of climb to our capabilities. Showed us a lot of interesting plants, explained their usage. They were always very cheerful, we felt really well with their companion. Very good chef Daniel, we were surprised by diversity of dishes prepared given the difficult mountain conditions. All the team did a really good job. All inclusive service with airport transfer and (later) safari.

    Мы ходили на Килиманджаро по маршруту Марангу за 5 дней в декабре 2019 с компанией Afrishare Trekking and Safaris. Если кратко, то могу смело рекомендовать. Нас было 2: я и моя супруга. Гидами были Алекс и Годфри. Кроме них в команде был повар, официант и 5 портеров - все отличные ребята, все отработали на ура. В принципе, нет вопросов ни к кому. Все выложились, как надо, на совесть. Бронирование и согласование с Ибрагимом также прошло, как по маслу. С первого письма, и я это отмечу особо, он отвечал строго по существу, четко, на все поставленные вопросы, без расплывчатых формулировок. Для Африки это редкость. Мы обращались еще в несколько мест, в том числе напрямую к разрекламированному на одном известном русском форуме гиду. Вот его ответы сразу давали понять, что он даже письма читает сквозь пальцы, отвечает какими-то шаблонами невпопад. С Ибрагимом все было наоборот, мы поняли, что тут все будет четко, поэтому и предоплату внесли еще из России без сомнений, хотя считается, что в Африке лучше ничего не оплачивать вперед. Ибрагим прислал удобную ссылку на форму приема платежей для карт Visa/Mastercard. Да, платежная система взяла комиссию в 3,5%, но это все равно сильно удобнее, чем какие-то непонятные банковские переводы. 30% от суммы тура мне кажется вполне адекватная предоплата. Остаток заплатили наличностью за день до начала. Все прошло настолько четко, что не понадобилось ни одного телефонного звонка, буквально несколько писем по электронной почте и все. За день до старта к нам в отель, название я написал Ибрагиму заранее, пришел гид Алекс и помощник Ибрагима Магембе. Они осмотрели наше снаряжение и в целом, дали добро. На следующий день приехала машина с командой и мы стартанули. Все восхождение мы шли в удобном нам режиме, кормили хорошо и много, на убой. Гиды были всегда под рукой, готовые ответить или помочь, при этом не навязывались, не лезли насильно с разговорами, для нас это плюс. Вообще, было очень комфортно идти, все что нужно - всегда по графику, никуда не торопились, но и не скучали без дела, не тратили время зря. На сам штурм вышли попозже остальных, в час ночи, Алекс и Годфри вообще какие-то роботы, поднимались с нами без своей воды, вообще не пили! Помогли нести наш рюкзачок с нашей водой и чаем, мы брали с собой из России 2 термоса - всем настоятельно рекомендую! И вверх, и вниз (вниз идти кстати не менее тяжело, моя супруга вообще с вершины шла тяжелее, чем наверх) шли в нужном темпе, Алекс пел духоподъемные песни, и вообще шутил над всеми, кого мы обгоняли. Потом они с Годфри на вершине фотографировались больше нас, как будто они сами первым раз туда зашли ;) Собственно, повторю итог, Afrishare Trekking and Safaris, не смотря на то, что предложили одну из самых низкий цен на восхождение (что тоже важно), организовали и провели все в лучшем виде. Да, наверное, можно при желании к чему-то придраться, возможно, кому-то нужно, чтобы их на руках несли, но у нас нет ни одного вопроса. Все было на высоком уровне.

    Caroline

    Asked on March 28th, 2023

    I want to go up to the Marangoo course. There are about 5 people. I wonder how many people are the cheapest. I wonder if I can use Potter as a team, not as a porter per person. And how far do they carry our luggage I wonder which hut. Does the cost include the accommodation and food for the porters? What will be the additional cost if the climbing period is extended due to bad weather?

      So, if we may include a safari tour, how much is total price? And I want to know the safari tour schedule?

    • C

      Caroline

      TravelerWritten April 2023

      We want to stay at lodging in safari. And 2 days safari tour included Serengeti.

    • Afrishare Trekking And SafarisOperatorWritten April 2023

      For Serengeti you need at least 3 days 2 nights. I recommend: Day one: Picked up from accommodation in Arusha and start driving toward Ngorongoro crater for day game drive. Day two: Early morning, depart toward Serengeti national park via Ngorongoro conservation area. Day Three: Morning game drive in Serengeti till early afternoon then depart toward Arusha city. Price per person based on 5 people is $1080 per person for safari.
