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.
The Rongai course is the solitary course that approaches Kilimanjaro from the north, near the Kenyan line.
However acquiring prominence among climbers, this course encounters low groups.
Rongai has a more slow slant than the mountain's different courses and hence is suggested for those with less hiking experience.
It is the favored course for those searching for an option to the well-known Marangu course, for the individuals who might want a more distant climb, and for the individuals who are moving during the stormy season.
Rongai compensates for this by going through evident wild regions almost the whole way.

Steady trek through grassy moorland and heather to Second Cave Camp (3935m) for picnic lunch, later proceed to the campsite.
Today you cross the alpine zone and journey across 'the saddle' between Mawenzi and Kibo to your final camp before the summit attempt.
Around midnight start for the summit to Gilman’s Point (5681m) and then proceed to Stella point, take a short rest and continue to Uhuru Peak (5895m). Spend few minutes at the peak and later descend to Kibo camp for a short rest and later descend to Horombo Camp to wind up your day.

Thanks again Francis
And thanks for the Masai blankets
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.
We truly enjoyed the trip, and really appreciate your help in organizing the trip, and then modifying the activities for me at last moment. You were helpful and so friendly through the process,
Just wanted to let you know, we had a really great trip! Our flights worked out. Our guide from Timeless Travel was college educated in wildlife management and he was excellent.
Thank you for your contribution to this and for assigning your best guide to this group – it obviously worked!
Hello Francis,
Back to France after a great Tanzania week.
