7 Days Mount Kilimanjaro Climb VIA The Scenic Machame Route And Descending Down VIA Mweka Route

All climbers sleep in tents and meals are served in the mess tent supplied with tables and chairs. Extending the route with one or two days will increase your summit chances and enjoyment and decrease your chances of Acute Mountain Sickness.

5 Days / 4 Nights Marangu Route

5 Days / 4 Nights Marangu Route

Affectionately known as the "Coca-Cola route", Marangu is by far the most popular route to the summit of Kilimanjaro. This could partly be as a result of the fact that the Marangu is the least expensive route, but more so, perhaps the fact that it is possible to do the Marangu route in 5 days, thereby getting to the summit one day earlier than on the Machame route. The Marangu route does however offer you the option of spending an extra acclimatisation day on the mountain. This greatly increasing your chances of success. Hut accommodation on the Marangu route forms one of the main differences, compared to the other routes. It offers you the relative luxury of being able to sleep in huts along the entire route
