Travel story
With each step the sky draws nearer, heading toward where the sun rises, simply forward.
Climbing becomes both the question and the answer.
Beyond it, a singular tranquility fills deeply.
-
This is a full-scale mountaineering program aiming to summit Kilimanjaro over five days via the Marangu Route.
You will face changing nature and harsh environments as you ascend from forest zones to alpine flora zones and glacial areas.
After the ascent you will descend in stages, rest in Arusha, and then return home.
Signature points
A five-day challenge along one of the world's premier high-altitude trekking routes
The Marangu Route is a unique path where you can experience dramatic natural changes from tropical rainforest to glacial zones.
With safe mountain hut accommodations, each day's walk leaves a deep impression on both body and mind.
Planned itinerary and acclimatization to mitigate altitude sickness risk
From day two the walking distances are kept moderate, with gradual altitude gains and immediate descent after nighttime summit attempts,
A schedule designed with acclimatization in mind minimizes the risk of altitude sickness.
Comprehensive support system with five staff members
A team of one guide, one cook, and three porters (one of whom also serves as a waiter) accompanies you to fully support the climb.
They provide transport of luggage, meals, and safety management, ensuring thorough support.
