About this experience
Discover what you’re made of on the 10-day Machame Route to Kilimanjaro’s summit, Uhuru Peak – the highest point in Africa (19,341-ft/5,895-m).
Hike a winding uphill path through the dense, mossy rain-forest. Colobus monkeys bark at you from the tree canopy, beckoning you to explore this new world full of unique flora, ancient lava flows, and towering glacial peaks. Achieve the goals you set for yourself as you climb up the Shira Plateau, one of Kilimanjaro’s original three calderas (or collapsed volcanoes).
Our stellar crew carries all your equipment & sets up camp each night, allowing you to fully enjoy this bucket list adventure and mingle with your trekmates. Feast on energizing, nourishing meals with local flair.
We summit just after sunrise, so you can see your footing up the steep path & bask in the glory of the warm daylight & otherworldly views. Boost your confidence with Kilimanjaro’s most elite guiding team of medically trained High Altitude First Responders by your side
