Overview

Mt. Kilimanjaro

Kilimanjaro Climb (19,341 ft): Machame Route

Mount Kilimanjaro can be climbed at any time of the year, though the best weather prevails during the dry seasons, July through October and January through February. The Machame route is considered by many to be the most beautiful and scenic. The actual climb requires a minimum of six days, during which you hike about 60 miles. Accommodations are in private campsites along the way. Final ascent to the rim begins in the pre-dawn hours (we recommend a full moon ascent), and most climbers reach Stellas point at sunrise. From Stellas point there is a 2-hour ascent to Uhuru Peak, the highest point in Africa. This is a highly challenging, spectacular and rewarding hike to the Roof of Africa! Unwind from the climb enjoying our classic cultural & wildlife safari for 8 days in East Africa's premier game parks. Enjoy authentic interactions with the Tatog, Hadzabe and Maasai and fantastic game viewing opportunities. This safari is a shortened version of our 11-Day Unparalleled Cultural & Wildlife Safari.

Optional Extensions: Many participants continue on with a relaxing 5-day escape to Tropical Zanzibar, enjoying Swahili cuisine and "apres-safari" spa treatments. Die-hard animal lovers extend their safari by joining a Gorilla tracking expert in Rwanda inside Volcanoes National Park. The spirit of unfolding adventure is at the heart of this rich and very real safari, and your extension options round out your one-of-a-kind journey to Africa! Register early!
