Reaching the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro was the fulfillment of a dream, made entirely possible by the incredible professionalism and warmth of this team. From seamless booking with Sebastian—who was extraordinarily responsive, reassuring, and helpful both before and after our trek and subsequent 2-day Tarangire and Ngorongoro safari—to every single step on the mountain, every detail was flawlessly managed. Our guides, Kalvin and Hosea, expertly supported us through every phase of the ascent, while Miraji, our chef, amazed us daily with delicious, restaurant-quality meals served in a surprisingly comfortable camp. Beyond the top-notch service and impressive logistics, what touched us most was the profound human experience: the extraordinarily strong, kind, and ever-smiling porters, alongside the entire crew, quickly felt like family. Every small thoughtful gesture throughout these 6 days made this unforgettable journey deeply special, and we couldn't recommend them more highly.
Thank you Sebastian, Kalvin, baba Hosea, Miraji, Jackson, Frank, Kile, Hussen, Ibrahimu, Kelvin, Ernest, Uwesu, Amani and Vicent.

UNFORGETTABLE experience
Sebastian and his team are seasoned tour guide professionals. From my experience with this tour operator, I especially remember their availability, their patience, and their empathy, all in an excellent atmosphere.
As French speakers, we never felt left out: the team knew how to maintain wonderful cohesion and great energy throughout our 5-day stay on Kilimanjaro.

An Unforgettable Kilimanjaro Experience
I had an amazing experience climbing Kilimanjaro with African Trek and Travel. I shared the journey with a very nice German guy, two wonderful guides, Valence and Emmanuel, and a team of eight porters who made everything possible. Everyone was incredibly kind, professional, and supportive, creating a fantastic atmosphere throughout the trek. The organization was excellent, and the whole experience was unforgettable. I highly recommend African Trek and Travel to anyone planning to climb Kilimanjaro!

Amazing 6-Day Machame Experience
The 6-day Machame Route was an unforgettable adventure and one of the best experiences of my life. The route is incredibly scenic, with diverse landscapes ranging from lush rainforest to alpine desert and stunning views all the way to the summit. The itinerary was well planned, allowing good acclimatization and making the climb challenging but achievable. The guides were professional, knowledgeable, and extremely supportive, always motivating us and ensuring our safety and comfort. The food was surprisingly good and kept our energy up throughout the trek. Reaching Uhuru Peak was an emotional and rewarding moment that I will never forget. I highly recommend the 6-day Machame Route to anyone looking for a challenging, beautiful, and well-rounded Kilimanjaro climb.

A amazing and unforgettable experience
My climb to the top was a big dream. This team made it come true.
The Guide (Kelvin): He knew everything. When I was tired and cold at night, he helped me. He always said “You can do it.” He is the best guide.
The Cooker: The food was always hot and good. It gave me energy every day.
The Waiter: Every morning, he brought me hot water to wash. He brought all three meals to my tent with a smile. He made me feel cared for.
The Toilet Crew: He set up a clean toilet tent every day. Even on rainy days, I could use it easily. This small thing was a big help.
The Porters: They carried the tents, bags, and everything. They worked very hard. Every afternoon, they made a warm camp for us.
The Whole Team: They were kind, strong, and happy. They sang songs and kept us safe.
This team is like a big family. They will take good care of you. If you want to climb this mountain, choose them. You will be safe and happy with them.
I thank them with all my heart.

An adventure of a lifetime
We can warmly recommend our guide Sebastian and his entire fantastic team. Together we climbed Kilimanjaro and reached the top of the whole family – a wonderful and unforgettable experience.
Both guides were incredibly caring, genuinely committed and constantly made sure we were well. The pace was perfectly adapted to us, and we felt safe and well taken care of all the way up to the top.
The food was extraordinary – varied and very good. We lacked absolutely nothing, on the contrary, it was amazing what the chef managed to conjure up on a mountain.
The whole team was extremely dedicated and present, from when we were woken up with hot tea in the mornings to the last day when we came down from the mountain, tired but so satisfied and happy.
We really recommend Sebastian and his team and would especially encourage others to choose local, small businesses. They do this with heart, and the experience is both more personal and even better than with the big players.
This is without a doubt one of the best adventures we have ever done and experienced.

An absolutely incredible team!
Sebastian and his team are kind, professional and funny all in good measure. We arrived not really knowing what to expect and were amazed by the wonderful service and attention to detail. The climb and summit far exceeded anything we could have wished for. We felt safe and supported with every step. Their pricing is really reasonable which leaves more left over to show your gratitude to the guys who make your summit possible. They completely Tanzanian owned and run too. So glad we chose this team!
