Would you like to explore the highest peak in Africa? Join us on this hiking tour of Mount Kilimanjaro along the famous Marangu route, led by an expert local guide.

Tour Highlights

We'll pick you up at your hotel in Arusha and set off toward Kilimanjaro National Park. After a 3-hour journey, we'll reach the Marangu Gate, one of the entrances to Kilimanjaro National Park.

Embarking on foot, we'll ascend through a wooded area with abundant vegetation, where you'll likely hear and see the monkeys living among the trees. Our local English-speaking guide will provide in-depth knowledge about the surroundings during the hike.

After 3 hours of trekking, we'll reach Mandara base camp, located at 2,740 meters (8,990 feet) above sea level. We will take a 30-minute break to rest and enjoy a picnic before beginning the descent back to Marangu.

Upon returning to the starting point, a vehicle will take you back to your hotel in Arusha. You'll arrive at the lodge about 12 hours later, after an excursion that allows you to experience the best of Kilimanjaro's breathtaking landscapes.

What Do I Need?

On the day of the activity, we recommend wearing comfortable clothes and hiking shoes. Don't forget a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen.
