  Our Kilimanjaro with Great Lake Expedition was perfectly organized, they did everything right and got me and my husband safely to the Uhuru Peak – the highest point in Africa! The crew was very thorough with arrangements and also during the actual trek, starting with the gear crosscheck at our hotel and ensuring we had every item that we needed. The daily health checks in the morning and evening reassured us. We were with real pro mountain guides. They were friendly and very useful in leading us through the route. Senior guide Robert was in-charge of the crew and they went all out to keep us safe and comfortable during the entire. The mood at our camp was amazing, the warmth of song and positive vibes reverberated through the campsite. I am sure that Yonas cooking played a huge part in raising everyone’s spirits. Looking back at the trip, we had it all good from the start, with the smooth booking and payment process with Roster. she helped us with all the information that we needed to select the Rongai route and also assigned the awesome crew that went with us. I would strongly recommend Great Lake Expedition for Kilimanjaro trekking.

  An unforgettable experience - thanks to Great Lake Expedition and our amazing team! Muntari, Dismaki, and Jack Rasta always led us with sincere care and professionalism and were frequently close by to help out as well. Yonathan- our waiter - and the entire stomach engineering team kept us extremely well fed and had tea and snacks on the ready along the trails just when we needed the boost most. Reaching the summit safely was at the forefront with health checks twice daily and establishing a pace where no one would be left behind was set by our experienced guides and we all did it together!! After 7 days with our team of guides and porters they started to feel like family and we were sad to say farewell. They all made us feel safe and well taken care of. We admired their strength, knowledge of the mountain and positive cheer leading along the way. I can’t imagine accomplishing such a monumental, once in a life time goal with any other team. Muntari - skillfully arranged all pickups, accommodations on the front and back end at beautiful properties and the Great Lake Expedition team that helped us go through our gear the day prior to departure added to the sense of proper readiness and organization. Every driver we encountered was attentive and great communicators sharing info about their beautiful country and time to destination etc. Everything was seamless! I wholeheartedly recommend Great Lake Expedition and a visit to Tanzania!

  All the 5 stars reviews you can read here are all spot on .Great Lake Expedition is top notch from the moment of first contact to Uhuru Peak .What made this trip truly unforgettable and special were the people who guided us during our hike to the top.the team led by the experienced guide Aricko is extremely professional and determined to make it a fantastic week .We spend most of the hours on the mountain with one of the best guides in the region ,Robert.with his knowledge ,cheerfulness and humor not a single hour was boring.The rest of the team from porter,cook,waiter to summit assistants should not remain unnamed.Everyone was equally valuable to us in achieving the altimate goal .These people added color to our journey and their mentality brought us to the top of Africa .I recommend Great Lake Expedition to anyone who is thinking of climbing Kilimanjaro as the only choice you need to consider.

  I recently completed the Rongai Route with Great Lake Expedition Company, and I can’t recommend them enough! The entire experience was truly remarkable, thanks to their professionalism and attention to detail. Itinerary: The Rongai Route offers a unique perspective of Kilimanjaro, starting from the north and providing stunning views and diverse landscapes. The itinerary was well-planned, allowing us to acclimatize properly while enjoying breathtaking scenery. Guides: Our guides were knowledgeable and passionate about the mountain. They provided valuable insights into the flora, fauna, and culture of the region. Their support was invaluable throughout the trek, ensuring that everyone felt safe and motivated. Accommodation & Meals: The camping setups were comfortable, and the meals were fantastic! Each dish was well-prepared, with a variety of options to keep our energy up. The team went above and beyond to accommodate dietary restrictions. Overall Experience: The camaraderie among our group and the dedication of the Great Lake team made this trek unforgettable. I reached the summit feeling accomplished and grateful for the incredible experience. If you’re considering climbing Kilimanjaro, I highly recommend the Rongai Route with Great Lake Expedition Company. You won’t regret it!
