What people love about Rongai Route Tours
- Mt Kilimanjaro Trek - Rongai Route
This was an awesome trip! Gerald and his dream team of CEOs (Roland, Said and Sadam) took a really good care of our group. Their constant positivity and happiness was contagious and I could not have wished for a better experience on this trip. Further, the tour was very well organized, meals were tasty and nutritious, and the CEO team always knew what was needed without asking. The entire support team worked really hard but they made it seem easy. If it wasn't for them, we would not have gotten to summit. It was a great pleasure to know and travel with Gerald's dream team. Would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to hike Mt. Kilimanjaro.
- 8 Days Mount Kilimanjaro Climbing - Rongai Route
We, 4 travellers from USA, are so happy to choose this company for our Kilimanjaro expedition via Rongai route. At first we tried this mountain in 2014 but we were not able to reach the summit ( altitude sickness). This time it was not difficult at all- thanks more time and excellent support from our guide Sunday and the whole team, assistant guide, porters, cook and Steppe Dogs Adventures management. Sunday was very helpful and professional, and gave us the best tips to avoid the mountain sickness. We were so happy, to reach Uhuru at 6.00 am! Thanks Sunday and the team. Tutaonana tena!!
