What people love about Hiking & Trekking Tours in Africa
- 12 days Madagascar Discovering tour package
This was the best 12 days I have ever spent on a safari; as a first-timer in Madagascar. I had the chance to see the most destination, like the Tsingy de bemaraha, the fantastic sunset at the Baobab avenue, and the fossa lemures. This trip requires a bit of fitness from the hikes and walks through the rainforest; plan to have comfortable shoes and some warm too. Do not forget to park some swimsuits if you are a beach person like me. The beach at IFATY are endless, and you can watch the whales too if you take a boat ride
- 10 Days Mount Kilimanjaro Climbing - Lemosho Route
My girl friend and I did the 10 day Mount Kilimanjaro trek via Lemosho route. The guides were amazing and supported us very well. All the meals were huge with lots of fruit and vegetables. Our chef was great and made sure we had coffee in the tent each morning, lots of food to eat, snacks and tea at the end of the day and helped with out packs when we came in. The route is challenging but through the great crew we had then we made it to the top of the Mount Kilimanjaro. Uhuru peak never forget haha :)
- Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route 10 Days *
It was a lifetime experience to trek with Zara tours. Safe to say I took one thing off my bucket list with a bang. The guide was so generous and caring, He took us "pole pole" up to the summit. Big shout out to the porters who worked tirelessly to deliver our stuff throughout the climb. Thank you Zara Tours, I will definitely tell friends to come and have a lifetime experience with Zara.
