Itinerary
Day 1 : Welcome!
Karibu! Welcome to Tanzania! Meet your guides at the Kilimanjaro International Airport before heading to Weru Weru river lodge for dinner and our first night.
Day 2 : Briefing
Not as exciting, but necessary for safety! You will meet your Kilimanjaro guide for a gear check and briefing about the mountain, including the group camping gear and an equipment demonstration, especially the emergency oxygen cylinder and pulse ox-meter.
Day 3 : Kilimanjaro climb
We drive to Lemosho gate where we will complete registration and receive an entrance permit. We enjoy
a tasty lunch at Kilimanjaro and then meet our Kilimanjaro crew. The first hike crosses through a rainforest to Mti Mkubwa Camp. On the way, you will see many beautiful flowers like the Impatiens Kilimanjari and, if you are lucky, you might see black and white Colobus monkeys and other forest wildlife.
Day 4 : Kilimanjaro climb
Today includes one of the longest and most beautiful hikes. Before lunch, you will hike to Shira 1 camp. After lunch, you will cross the middle of Shira Plateau, through Moorland Zone, and arrive in the beautiful overnight camp located at the base of a massive lava flow.
Day 5 : Kilimanjaro climb
Today, we continue crossing the Alpine desert. You will start by climbing over steep hills and very few rocks, then tackle a steady uphill climb to the lava tower before. From the lava tower, you will descend through dust and rock trail to have an overnight stay at Barranco Camp.
Day 6 : Kilimanjaro climb
Today is a short day, starting with scrambling up the great Barranco wall for about. On this wall, some sections will be steep, so you’ll need to use your hands to reach and manoeuvre yourself around rock boulders. At the top of the wall, you can see Barranco valley and the campsite where you spent the previous night. You will also walk up and down to Karanga Valley. This will be your campsite where you will have hot lunch and an overnight stay.
Day 7 : Kilimanjaro climb
Today, you will walk across an upper Alpine desert on a steep uphill with many boulders and shattered rocks. You will go through a steep ridge until you reach a rocky section, which requires more scrambling. Your next camp will be on a large rocky area with steep faces. You will have an early dinner and sleep earlier because you will have to wake up in the middle of the night for the summit.
Day 8 : Kilimanjaro summit
You will wake up at around 11:00pm to start your summit climb at midnight. It starts with a steep rocky section before crossing zigzag area. We head towards the crater rim and finally reach Stella Point at around 6am. At Stella Point, you will join other hikers heading to Uhuru Peak. You get to enjoy an unforgettable sunrise on your way to or at the summit. We begin our descent down via the same trail to Barafu Camp for rest and brunch, and then descend to Mweka Hut.
Day 9 : Kilimanjaro descent
After breakfast, you meet your Kilimanjaro crew for group pictures and Kilimanjaro songs. From there, you will start descending down via rainforest. If you’re lucky you might see blue monkeys and black and white Colobus monkeys as well. At Mweka Gate, you will sign out in the Kilimanjaro National Park log book and the guide will collect certificates for those who managed a successful summit. We then drive to your hotel in Moshi for a very well deserved hot shower and Kilimanjaro beer.
Day 10 : Safari Day 1: Tarangire National Park and Marera Valley
You’ll either transfer to the airport to head home, or continue on the safari! We drive to Tarangire National Park for a game drive until the afternoon, when we break for a picnic lunch. After lunch, we will continue with the game drive until the evening and drive to our lodge for dinner and an overnight stay at Marera Valley.
Day 11 : Serengeti
Today, you will head to Ngorongoro crater, often referred to as a wonder of the world. We enjoy another game drive, break for a picnic lunch, and then ascend from the crater and drive to Tanzania bush camps in the Serengeti for dinner and an overnight stay. This is the world’s largest caldera full of grassland, forest, and swamp – truly a stunning setting. The permanent water crater floor supports a resident population of more than 25,000 large mammals.
Day 12 : Serengeti
Today, we start our game drive and stop for a picnic lunch in the afternoon. We continue with our game drive before heading back to our tented lodge for dinner and an overnight stay in Tanzania Bush camps. Serengeti is truly something special, showcasing the sights, sounds, and smells of Africa with stunning scenery, ever-changing light and entertaining wildlife. In this park, the animals don’t work to any schedule so we may find a wide array of animals during our game drive.
Day 13 : Serengeti – Moshi
After breakfast, you will have half a day to explore the magical Serengeti until lunch time. From there, we have to sadly exit the park and drive for 5 hours to Moshi for dinner and our final overnight stay at Weru Weru river lodge.
Day 14 : Farewell
We will say farewell to our wonderful guides and drive you back to the Kilimanjaro International Airport to catch our flights.
