Marangu Route Tour Companies

Had a fantastic trip. The Kilimanjaro trek was something I won?t forget. The team of guided and porters were really very good without exception. What a great you managed to put together here! Was expertly managed for a solo traveler, I never felt alone or at risk. They taught us all the songs and were advocated of GAdventures! My only complaint was that it didn?t appear that GAdventures weren?t as enthusiastic about their team as we were. Some of the equipment they had for climbing that mountain was insufficient and embarrassing. We passed another group who were all kitted out and matching. I would have felt better ethically and for safety seeing our team in branded/suitable attire-the beanies were good for identifying the team, but it?s not enough. I would hope gay G offer T-shirt?s/boots/coats and gloves to their teams for welfare, your company brand/reputation and to ensure your team are the best and have the means to do this. Lots of us left hiking gear for the guides/porters and they seemed very grateful though they ever complain about what they don?t have. They just looked far less kitted up than the tourists and some other groups. I really hope you can invest a little more into what is a very good and deficit ram-even if it?s pool uniform that they borrow and return post trek. Loved it overall and would recommend and use myself again. I do think the 5 day route was too short and would recommend this to anyone. An extra day to acclimatise would have kept us together as a group, not as sick and given a heights success rate. Iddy got me to the top that day and I will forever be grateful for him taking the extra 3 hrs with me when everyone else was on the way down.

Overall an amazing experience however, it was too much to be squeezed into essentially 3 days before summiting. Everyone in the group had altitude sickness to some level and reduced oxygen saturations - not everyone made it to the summit.

The tour was perfectly organized. The contact with Joyce in the run-up to the trip was regular and she responded quickly to our questions. We were picked up from the airport and the itinerary for the next few days was explained to us in detail at the hotel. Our guides Kashi and Zunga were very attentive and told us a lot about the nature on Kilimanjaro and the history and culture of the country. The food was excellent and varied. Steven was also always concerned for our well-being and to fulfill our little extra wishes. Overall, everyone was very friendly.

The right balance of challenge and comfort on the Marangu route. The trail was not busy and overall quite clean. The huts are great and helped keep equipment dry. The guide was Dustin and he was very attentive to my needs, health and overall experience. With his support I made it to the peak! The Springlands hotel staff are very helpful. Amadeus in reception was always ready to help, Jack is an exceptional waiter at the restaurant and Linda was a great coordinator. Also Jane helped me navigate some communication between the hotel and the tour operator. Although there were a few communication problems, World Adventure Tours acknowledged the problem and found a solution in a very fair and reasonable way. I was satisfied with how they dealt with the situation and give them my highest recommendation based on their response. Big thanks to Joyce Gitumbi who went out of her way to ensure I was satisfied with the experience in Tanzania.

I and my dad had a great time trekking Mount Kilimanjaro with Steppe Dogs Adventures. The crew was professional. Everything were well organized from office staff to the mountain crew. We really enjoyed our trekking and when it became tough for us our guides were there to assist. We strongly recommend this company to anyone planning to go Tanzania. asante sana :)

I and my other three friends did the Marangu 5 day trek. Frank met us and helped to ensure we had the correct equipment prior to beginning (tip-bring rain pants!). We were able to chat with our guide Noel as well and he gave us an overview of the five days. We each had three porters with a cook and two guides so our party had fifty total. Noel and Emmanuel (guides) were absolutely amazing. They really cared that we made it to the summit and ensured we had everything we needed (to include Noel making sure we got the nice cabins every night)! The food was more than five stars (lots of carbs, rice, noodles and veggies)-Muddy was an amazing Cook. Summit morning was awesome (for me), my sister had a little trouble but Noel and Emmanuel took such good care of her to make sure she reached the top. Lastly, Frank was able to hook us up with a few hours at a hotel to let us shower prior to our flight (we forgot about that). Overall. Steppe Dogs adventures is definitely the way to go!!!

We summited Kilimanjaro via the Marangu Route with Spider Tours And Safaris. 6 days on the mountain. There were 6 of us in the group with an age range from 14 to 66. Our guides Emanuel Peter and Marco were great - attentive, knowledgeable, encouraging. The chef did an excellent job keeping us fueled.The whole team, guides to porters, were very supportive and made it possible for all of us to reach the top, and we all did.

The Spider Tours team were awesome. Highly recommend. Great food, great service and great people in general. They go us up the mountain and were very lovely and patient.

Our experience climbing Mt Kilimanjaro was made by having two excellent guides Benny and James and also the management team of Almighty Kilimanjaro. Our team truly made the trip a memorable experience and I would highly recommend their services to anyone wanting a great experience.

This was a challenging and very rewarding trip. Benny and James took care of all our needs and were excellent guides. I would highly recommend this company for anyone considering Kilimanjaro

Migration Venture Africa was great! Amos, the owner/manager was extremely quick to respond to questions. We did a waterfall hike, Kilimanjaro climb, and a 2-day safari with the company and everything was great. Our group did the 5-day mountain climb, which was not recommended by the company because it was very difficult. The hike was very difficult, and I recommend taking at least a few additional days. Guides were extremely friendly and helpful. The accommodations were simple but very nice and they have great food and drinks available on the premises. I would recommend using Migration Venture Africa for all of your Tanzania adventures!

Great experience through and through. Everyone at migration Africa adventures were very helpful and fun to be around. If I ever come do the mountain again I will definitely be using them.

The Marangu Route was a fantastic choice for someone new to trekking. The huts were a great touch, and the gradual climb allowed me to enjoy the journey. Reaching the summit and seeing the glaciers was a surreal experience I’ll cherish forever.

The Marangu Route, also known as the ‘Coca-Cola Route,’ was perfect for a first-time climber like me. The huts provided a cozy shelter, and the gradual ascent made it manageable. Reaching the summit was an emotional moment I will treasure forever!

I trusted Intrepid on the trip and was not disappointed.

The overall organisation and quality of the individuals acting on their behalf on the trip. Rocky was excellent and led his team well while being attentive and accommodating to our party

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.

I traveled with my two siblings to Tanzania for Kilimanjaro with Zara Tours and I can confidently say that this is the best travel operator I have ever worked with. Right from the time we were making the booking Zayina our Travel Specialist made the process smooth and easy. When we arrived in Tanzania for our the trek, everything was ready, from an awesome competent crew of professional guides, porters and cook - led by Guide Jaymo to being provided with enough supplies and great equipment. Weather was great throughout the trek and we enjoyed incredible views. Food was excellent and sleeping in the huts was a great idea, I really appreciate the entire Zara Tanzania Adventures team for the top quality trek.

My friends and I had a truly incredible time on this Kilimanjaro trek. Zara were great with everything; helped organize for all the logistics, provided us with information on how to prepare and also the pre-trekking packing list for gear and equipment. They also answered all the questions that we had. In a nutshell they made the booking process smooth and painless. The actual trip very tough and we would not have made it safely to the summit without the support of Yesse Lema and his team of guides, porters and cook. They run everything so professionally and cared for us at every juncture. I am forever indebted to Zara Tours and the wonderful people who were involved in our trek.

Tanzania Wildlife Adventures made my dream of climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro a reality. Their knowledgeable guides and excellent service ensured a safe and unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

Our Guide Papuu was sincerely the best tour guide I could have ever imagined. He exceeded our expectations. He taught us Swahili over a few days time, and some songs too. His knowledge of the animals and surrounding areas was truly amazing. He deserves special recognition, and we’d like to thank Tanzania Wildlife Adventures for the most incredible experience in Tanzania. Thank you so much Yusuph for Organizing us unforgettable experience.

An efficient and very satisfactory experience of a number of game parks. Well worthwhile.

Wonderful 5 days trekking

Fantastic crew. Amazing energy. Lovely personalities. Helping hand at every corner. Amazing accommodation with wonderful nature and helpful staff x. Thanks Hazzes!

On this trip, Hazzes Adventure took excellent care of us! We hiked Mount Kilimanjaro for 8 days and were well taken care of by our outstanding guides (Emmanuel, Mtui, and Noel), as well as the 20+ porters! Everyone was incredibly nice and happy for us. The lunch was surprisingly delicious (thank you, Chef Obed). This was an unforgettable experience, and I can't wait to share my memories with family and friends back home. Hazzes Adventure is highly recommended.

My wife and I recently conquered the mighty Kilimanjaro with Kilimanjaro Economy Safaris, and it was an experience we'll never forget. From the very beginning, the team went above and beyond to ensure our safety and enjoyment. Our guide, Tuliza, was incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, always encouraging us and keeping us motivated throughout the challenging climb. A huge shoutout to the incredible kitchen staff! Adam, the cook, conjured up delicious and nutritious meals that fueled our bodies for the trek. Patrick, our waiter, was always attentive and ensured we were well-hydrated. We can't forget the amazing porters - Innocent, Ebenezer, Denis, Martine, Juma, and many others. Their strength, positive attitudes, and genuine smiles made the climb even more special. They truly became like family on the mountain. The Marangu Route offered stunning scenery as we traversed different ecological zones. The sense of accomplishment reaching the summit was indescribable, and it wouldn't have been possible without Kilimanjaro Economy Safaris. They provided a well-organized and supportive environment, making this once-in-a-lifetime adventure truly unforgettable. We highly recommend them to anyone considering climbing Kilimanjaro!
