I had a fantastic trip with Pinnacle. As someone who planned their trip fairly last minute, Frazier helped me to get everything in order - transportation, lodging, all other logistics, etc. From the first pickup at the airport, everything ran smoothly. My climb itself was a fantastic experience. My guide, Emmanuel, was knowledgeable, friendly, and safe. The team of porters was remarkable - kind, efficient, and invaluable in ensuring the success of the trip. I would also add that the food, prepared by Ziggy, was incredible. I had never imagined I would eat so well on a hiking trip. The team tailored the trip to my desired speed, knocking out the trip in 4 days, which was great. Frazier helped me arrange a short safari on the back end as well - once again, I was happy to leave the planning in his hands. Can’t say enough good things about my experience.
Hey Don 👋 So Great to read all these from you buddy, on behalf of the whole team we truly are grateful and enjoyed having you around... Your simplicity made everything work so smoothly Thank you so much for the trust and the chats afterwards to make sure that we always learn and do better... No enough words to express our gratitude :) Just Don't forget about the Marathon challenge in 2025... 🤙 Hope to see you again Bro... Cheers
My Kilimanjaro climb was a huge achievement for me. Physically demanding certainly but very much mental with a day to day grind that would bring some people down before they would have wanted. All 10 of our climbers summited which was due to our steady Pinnacle guides and upbeat attitude in camp. Porters were very courteous when passing and created the most memorable moments when they did group singing. It rained, it snowed but through it all the Pinnacle leadership was on top of the whole outstanding experience.
Dear Jabir, we are so proud of you for giving 100% of your energy physically and mentally. Your summit story was an inspiration to all of us! Welcome back to Tanzania next time. Cheers
What a FABULOUS trip. Well organised. From day 1 till the end. Local Rep in Tanzania was great help to organise a local town tour the day before trek. Trek was high standard ! Good food , experienced guides , friendly & strong SMILING porters. Been looked after very well. Food was great , a lot!!! No question or request was too much. Tents, matrasses and toilet tent good quality & well looked after. The USA team has been excellent help on the phone from start till finish. The Tanzania Kandoo Team was very reliable. The Guides on the trek were amazing ! Helpful, caring, knowledgeable & HAPPY! Taxi / Transfers well organised and on time. Water plenty on the mountain and well filtered. It was alround 5 star worthy and i would recommend Pinnacle and the Inner route to anyone who wants to have a life changing experience trekking the Kilimsnjaro.

Pinnacle adventures was an amazing tour company, we did the Mt. Kilimanjaro hike with Godfrey as our head guide and had a great experience. The hotel, food, hike accomodations,and customer service was superb and I would definitely recommend them to friends and family!
Dear Lloyd, thank you so much for picking us among many companies, you are such a blessing to us; we would love to have you back next time. Stay safe and keep up a good heart you have.
I waited a few months before writing this review in case I was going to write with a holiday brain, but my opinion has not changed. This was the best trip I have ever taken. I solo travel a lot but Pinnacle really look after you and made the group a family. Their attention to detail is second to none. I felt so safe and valued every second of every day. I will be booking within Pinnacle Adventures and Safaris again and I will not stop recommending them to everyone I meet. Thank you, and miss you guys
