    I couldn't have asked for a better experience than the one my brother and I had during our recent trip to Tanzania. I think the perfect planning with Amos before the trip played a huge part in the successful outcome. Amos was there to guide us pre-trek and it was reassuring to find everything in place when we arrived in Tanzania. The two guides - Temba and Marcus are the absolutely best; very experienced on Kilimanjaro and Machame route. They put our safety and comfort first and also made us feel wanted and were treated really well. I was struck by how much attention to detail had taken care of so that we were happy. Every thing was planned to the last detail. I really appreciate that despite the tough mountain conditions they created comfortable camping surroundings for us. We had a lot of fun on the trek, learning about Kilimanjaro and Tanzania in general not forgetting the once in a lifetime views as we were trekking above the clouds. Sunrise at the summit is totally unforgettable! I highly recommend this trip to all outdoor enthusiasts who are planning to do Kilimanjaro.

    · January 28th, 2025
    If you are thinking of climbing Kilimanjaro, I suggest that you talk to Amos of Migration Venture Africa. They are highly experienced in planning and organizing Kilimanjaro treks and have very experienced crews. I am actually speaking from a point of experience because they were amazing. Amos helped us book a private package which came with 2 guides (Epa and Jackson), 6 porters and a cook. These guys were exceptional and are the reasons that we reached Kilimanjaro's summit safely and in excellent health, though quite beat from fatigue and the high altitude. The services were top class and we totally loved experience and would not change it for anything. A huge vote of thanks goes to everyone from Migration Venture Africa that was involved in our trip.

    Our group of five from Germany recently completed the Machame Route over 6 days with Migration Venture Africa, and it was an incredible journey from start to finish. The attention to detail and the personalized care we received from the team made this an unforgettable experience. Joseph and Peter, our main guides, were simply outstanding. Their deep knowledge of the mountain and their ability to keep us motivated at every stage of the trek made all the difference. Whether we were trekking through the lush rainforest on Day 1 or tackling the steep Barranco Wall on Day 4, they provided clear instructions, encouragement, and plenty of humor to keep our spirits high. Julian and Germin were equally fantastic, supporting us with anything we needed and always ensuring our comfort at each camp. Their hard work behind the scenes made the entire trek feel seamless, from setting up our tents to preparing delicious meals that kept us energized for the journey ahead. The Machame Route itself is breathtaking, offering diverse landscapes and panoramic views that change dramatically each day. The challenge of the summit night was real, but standing on top of Uhuru Peak at sunrise made every step worth it. The sense of accomplishment we felt as a group was something we’ll cherish forever. Migration venture Africa exceeded our expectations in every way. The guides, porters, and the entire crew were dedicated to our success, and their warm hospitality made us feel like family. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional and personalized Kilimanjaro experience.

Every detail was thoughtfully handled, from the pre-climb briefings to the logistics on the mountain. Our guide, Ben, was outstanding—knowledgeable, friendly, and always ready to support the team. He made sure we were well-prepared at each stage of the climb and kept us motivated even when the altitude started to take its toll. The whole team at Migration Venture Africa provided top-notch service, ensuring our safety and comfort throughout the trek. The meals were great, the equipment was reliable, and the porters were some of the hardest-working people I've ever met. Reaching the summit of Kilimanjaro was one of the greatest accomplishments of my life, and I couldn't have asked for a better group to share it with. If you're considering climbing Kilimanjaro, I highly recommend Migration Venture Africa. Their expertise and passion for what they do make the experience truly unforgettable.

    Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro with Migration Venture Africa over six days was an incredible adventure, largely thanks to our exceptional guide, Joseph. From the detailed pre-climb briefing in Moshi to the final ascent, everything was meticulously organized, ensuring we were well-prepared and supported throughout the journey. Joseph's expertise and encouragement were invaluable, especially during the more challenging sections, making the climb both safe and enjoyable. The entire team, including the porters and chefs, was remarkable—carrying our gear, setting up camps, and providing delicious meals that kept us fueled and motivated. The camaraderie and professionalism of everyone involved made the experience not only successful but deeply memorable.
