Tailor-made is our business.
Our Tanzania itineraries are like the spots on a leopard's coat - each one is different. We'll tailor-make your trip to suit your individual needs rather than simply asking you to choose.
Routes Overview
The freshest expansion and most interesting course to the Kilimanjaro climbing.
This is the longest course as far as time and distance voyaged while this course offers the most elevated level of effective highest points and an incredibly delightful excursion.
Despite the fact that it is the most costly trip choice, with an exceptionally high achievement rate.
It starts in the West at the Londorossi Gate and follows a similar way as the Lemosho course for the initial two days.
In the wake of intersection, the Shira level the way veers north close to Lava Tower, following the more Northern Circuit rather than the more famous Southern Circuit through Barranco Valley The course circles around the calmer northern slants toward the east side of the mountain.

Best regards, Janice
The trip was absolutely perfect! I could use all the adjectives to describe each moment of it, but I would still run out of them. We LOVED every moment of it.

We had the most fantastic trip! It was full of adventure, excitement, some scary bits (lions in the night), and beauty.
