    From start to summit, the team exceeded all expectations. The guides were not only highly knowledgeable but also incredibly supportive, keeping spirits high even during the toughest stretches. The porters worked tirelessly, and the chef provided surprisingly delicious meals at every camp. Logistics, safety, and customer service were handled flawlessly—true professionals.

    The Machame Route was everything I hoped for and more! The landscapes were absolutely stunning, from lush rainforests to glaciers. The trek was challenging, especially the final push to Uhuru Peak, but every moment was worth it. Watching the sunrise from the summit was a life-changing experience! If you’re considering climbing Kilimanjaro, the Machame Route is a perfect choice—it offers the best scenery and great acclimatization!

    From start to finish an absolutely amazing experience! Our guide Haruni was wonderful and made the trip fantastic. We saw SO many animals thanks to him and he was very funny and considerate of our every need. Every hotel/camp/lodge we stayed in was great. Seems like they thought of everything. Plenty of clean water and chargers at every site, including in our jeep. Spirit of Kilimanjaro truly has a well earned reputation as being the very best tour company and it shows. Tanzania is a beautiful country and it is truly impressive how well preserved the nature is. We loved every minute of it and hope to come back again one day!
