Description

If you’re reading this, you’re probably interested in climbing Kilimanjaro on the Machame Route. You’re in good company. Of the seven main routes used to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the Machame route is the most popular path. It is the route of choice for many people because it provides impressive views and a variety of habitats. About 50% of all climbers, and most seasoned climbers, choose the Machame route. It is also one of the cheaper routes due to its easy access and shorter itinerary. The Machame route is also known as the Whiskey route, given its reputation for being a tough climb, in contrast to the easier Marangu route, which is known as the Coca Cola route. Unlike the gradual incline and hut accommodations found on the Marangu Route, the climbers on Machame hike steeper trails, for longer distances, while sleeping in tents.

Great Kilimanjaro Trek – Thanks to Leonard and Team

We were a group of five first-time climbers and took the Machame Route up Kilimanjaro. The trek was challenging but incredibly rewarding, with stunning scenery that changed every day—from rainforest to alpine desert and finally the snowy summit. Our guide Leonard and the whole team of porters were fantastic, always supporting and encouraging us. Summit night was tough, but thanks to their guidance we all made it to Uhuru Peak together at sunrise—an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended

No Regrets with Unique Planet Safaris

We had a very good time with Unique Planet Safaris on our trip to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the good hospitality from their staff along with the guidance was one of the parts that made it possible to enjoy and complete reaching the top of Mount Kilimanjaro. I congratulate them very much for their reception since we arrived. My friends and I received good service. Until we finish our trip, I advise anyone who needs to come to Tanzania for a trip and climb Mount Kilimanjaro, to do not hesitate to go with the unique Planet Safaris.
