  A once in a lifetime experience, we will never forget. We came with the intend to climb Mount Kilimanjaro and left with an unforgettable experience that was not only about achieving our goal, but much more about the people who created these memories. Thank you, Muntali and his team for carrying everything we needed, setting up the camp and always smiling - you have our utmost respect and we were more than thankful to have you. Thank you, John, for cooking the most delicious meals at an altitude of 3000m and above and for always keeping us properly fueled to conquer the mountain. Thank you, Jackson and Robert, for being the best guides we could have wished for. Thank you, for pushing us all the way to the top, for all the motivation, the professionalism, the dance moves and sharing your knowledge on people, nature and the area with us. We cannot recommend this team more, thank you for making this trip truly unforgettable.

  This was my first trip to Tanzania and I cannot recommend coming to this country and utilizing Great lake expedition enough. From picking us up at the airport, shuttling us around Moshi, and organizing our entire trek up the mountain they had us fully taken care of. We did the 8 day Lemosho route and had a group of 12. All 12 people were fully taken care of and hit their goal on our trip. The food was so delicious and our accommodations , tents, and gear that was rented was of the highest quality. Our guides made sure everyone was safe the entire time but also took the time to teach us Swahili, educate us on Tanzanian culture, and teach us more about the wildlife and going up the mountain. Our lead guides all had dozens (if not hundreds) of summits and were well equipped for any situation. I don’t often write reviews but I will go out fully on a limb to say this is one of the best companies and travel experiences out there. Don’t hesitate and compare with other companies just go straight with Great Lake Expedition and finally come see one of the best countries on earth without any stress or hesitation. 10/10 review.

  THANK YOU Great Lake Expedition for getting me to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro! We climbed the Lemosho Route, which was a very difficult and strenuous 8 day route to the summit which would have been impossible without the motivation and patience of Amiry and the incredible team of guides. The porters are superhuman, always ensuring the entire camp was set up prior to our arrival. They cooked for us daily, and the freshly made soup was always a delight! I will never forget my time on Kilimanjaro with Great Lake Expedition, and I cannot thank the team enough. I will definitely return!

  Our group of 5 completed this journey with the Great Lake Expedition team in october 2024. We were more than impressed with all aspects of the trip. From the moment we made our first enquiry, Roster helped us customise our trip to our needs and provided timely support and information. Accommodation prior to and after the trek was amazing. The Great Lake Expedition drivers who collected us and dropped us to hotel were just the best. During the trek, Aricko and his team were brilliant. They really put our health and wellbeing at the centre of everything we done during our 6 days on the mountain. Food was great. Tents were awesome. The whole crew were fun and supportive. We could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you Great Lake Expedition team for making our journey to the top of Africa one to remember!

  Our 8-day trek on the Lemosho Route to Kilimanjaro was an incredible experience, made perfect by the outstanding team at Great Lake Expedition. The Lemosho Route’s breathtaking scenery, from lush rainforests to alpine deserts, was enhanced by the expert guidance of our lead guide, who provided invaluable support and encouragement throughout the journey. The team’s attention to detail, from setting up comfortable camps to preparing delicious meals, made the trek enjoyable and stress-free. The porters and crew were tireless in their efforts, always going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and safety. Thanks to their professionalism and dedication, we reached the summit with confidence and cherished memories. I highly recommend Great Lake Expedition for anyone looking to conquer Kilimanjaro with a reliable and exceptional team!

  Hiking mount Kilimanjaro is not easy but Great Lake Expedition made simply easy . The equipment and tents were of high quality, the guides and crew took utmost care of our health and ensured we submitted safely. They measured our oxygen level twice a day to make sure we are fit .Thank you Great Lake Expedition for enabling me to share a wonderful moment of my daughter's 21 birthday on Kilimanjaro

  Thank You so much for making my dream come true! All 7 of us got to see the sunrise at the top thanks to the dream team of very skilled, caring and inspiring guides, porters and chefs that made life as easy as it possibly can get. I am still pinching my arm to make sure it really happened. The food and service from the kitchen team was way better than many restaurants I`ve visited in my hometown in Us. The knowledge, humour, singing and stories that were shared by the three excellent guides Baraka, John and Salim made the trip itself a memory for life. I will never forget the team effort they made especially for the last day (night) on the way to the top, where I literally lost all strength and gave up so many times. They comforted me, lifted me up, gave me food and clothes and even took care of my day pack, to make sure I got my dream fulfilled. I will keep the good memories in my heart forever. Asante Sana

  What a fantastic experience we had with our group. Sam was our primary guide and Fute our assistant, but the whole team was focused on our comfort and success. My daughter and I took an 7 night and 8 day trip up the mountain. It was very challenging, we’re big guys and probably didn’t prepare as well as we should over the previous year. They insured we travelled in a way that we submitted and were always concerned about our enjoyment, safety, and health. The food was much better than expected -it was very good. Our accommodations pre and post hike were excellent. I highly recommend Great Lake Expedition . I travel a lot internationally. This was one of the very best experiences I have ever had. It was more than fair cost wise as well. I hope to return with other family members for more adventures.

  Great Lake Expedition exceeded our expectations in every way! If you are wanting to climb Kilimanjaro, look no further. From beginning to end, the attention to detail and the quality of the experience was remarkable. The guides were not only extremely knowledgeable and prepared for any situation, they were kind and funny and made what at times can be a challenging hike for some, easier through their encouragement and assurance that all will be okay. They take safety very seriously and health checks were done twice daily. The porter staff was wonderful. Our meals were delicious, the camps were always set up very comfortably, and they went above and beyond to make it a special experience. One person in our group had a birthday and also happens to have a gluten allergy. Imagine our surprise when after dinner the cook brought in an absolutely beautiful (and tasty) gluten-free cake with candles along with the guides and some of the senior porters singing Happy Birthday in Swahili! I'll never forget it and it wasn't even my birthday! Another fun touch was every night before bed we were given stuffed bunnies with hot water bottles for the ends of our sleeping bags. :) We have done a few trekking vacations and I can say that Great Lake Expedition is absolutely top notch and you will not regret booking with them.
