Enjoy the journey for your soul from the snow-capped peak of Kilimanjaro to the sun-kissed islands of the Zanzibar.

Kilimanjaro is one of the most spectacular sights to see not just in Tanzania but quite possibly in the whole of Africa. At an almighty 5895 m it is the tallest mountain in Africa (not surprisingly nicknamed the “roof of Africa”) and is the tallest free standing mountain in the world that can be climbed freely without the need for technical equipment. Ice capped all year round it is in fact a dormant (but not extinct!) volcano.

MARANGU ROUTE

The Marangu route is perhaps the easiest and most comfortable route to reach the summit of Mt Kilimanjaro. The route is well-developed and the climb is constant and moderate. Only the approach to the summit is the exception as it is slightly more demanding. The accommodation on this tour is in Simple Mountain huts, which might be an advantage compared to the camping routes.
