7 - キリマンジャロ・マチャメルートクライム（エキスパートガイド付き）

Going up to Kilimanjaro is tough, but with this team everything was easier. Guides help you and give you a lot of security. What surprised me the most was the food: I don’t know how they cooked so rich in the middle of the mountain! Those hot meals when you get to camp bring you back to life. Highly recommended

Here, we climbed Kilimanjaro through a tour operator, and successfully climbed the top. I liked the price at a reasonable price and would like to use it when coming with friends later. The reception side and the food feel good. We climbed for a short period of five days, but I heard a lot.

We did the 7 Days Kilimanjaro Hike on the Machame Route through Chief's Tours, and the experience was really great. In the first few days, from the lush rainforest to the barren volcanic slopes, we reached a completely different world. Our guide was very helpful and helped us to adjust our bodies to the altitude every day. Standing on Uhuru Peak at sunrise on the summit day from Barafu Camp - it's one of the best moments of life. The food, the service, and the team were all great.

An unforgettable journey on the Whisky Route We climbed Kilimanjaro via the Machame Route, and the team at Chief's Tours arranged everything perfectly for us. From the very first day, the guides were very helpful and helped us to gradually adjust our bodies to the altitude through the principle of "climb high, sleep low" every day. The tents were cozy, the food was served hot, and the porters were always cheerful. The moment of sunrise on Summit Day was the best experience of my life. Couldn't have done it without this team.

Chief's Tours captured our hearts even before we set foot in Tanzania. Adidas clearly explained everything from the beginning - what to bring, what the weather will be like, and how to get used to the altitude. We trekked the Lemosho route for 7 days, and each day was full of new experiences. We had separate dining tents, sleeping tents, and even an experienced cook, whose cooking was still unforgettable! What I liked the most was the support of the team - the guides stood by when we were tired, and the physical problems with altitude gave us courage. This is an experience that only Chief's Tours can offer.

I had never done hiking, so I was very afraid. But the professional team at Chief’s Tours gave me so much confidence throughout the trip that I managed to reach the top of 5895 m. On the first day, we entered the rainforest through the Machame Gate and spent the night at Camp Machame. Every day, the different landscapes and routes were like a story in themselves. Shira Cave, Lava Tower, Barranco Wall, Camp Barafu: everything was full of challenges and joys. Food, safety, health checks, oxygen measurements: they managed everything so well that we could only concentrate on the views and experience. Without Chief’s Tours, I might never have reached this peak.

Trekking Mount Kilimanjaro via Machame Route with Chief’s Tours was an incredible experience. The entire team was very professional. The guides, cooks, and porters/everyone was friendly and helpful. The daily meals were delicious and helped us cope with the altitude well. Every view along the way was breathtaking/especially the Shira Plateau and the Barranco Wall. I am so happy that I received such good service even at such an affordable package.

Climbing the Shira Route with Chief's Tours was a dream come true. The high-altitude start added an extra challenge, but the stunning scenery and expert guidance made it worth it. The guides were incredibly supportive, helping us acclimatize and stay motivated. The climb up the Great Barranco Wall was a personal highlight, and the views from Barafu Camp were breathtaking. The sunrise at Stella Point and reaching Uhuru Peak were the ultimate rewards. Thank you, Chief's Tours, for an unforgettable Kilimanjaro experience!

Our trip to Kilimanjaro was 4 years in the making and Chiefs Tours supported us the entire time up until a difficult decision but there is summit in our future and I can’t wait to do it with chiefs! 4 years ago I watched a video about climbing Kili and decided it was something I wanted to do. I started reaching out to a few well reviewed companies and Chiefs tours was the most responsive and reasonably priced. Our planning got interrupted by some surgeries and covid but the entire time adidas (owner/operator of chiefs) always was responsive and willing to adjust with our schedule. We finally made it a reality this December. We were greeted at the airport after realizing one of our bags didn’t make it. Adidas took our lost baggage ticket and said this was his problem now. Ended up our bag went on to Zanzibar and adidas had it back at our lodge later that night! The lodge we stayed at (kilele) was comfortable and perfect for before and after our climb. We were served wonderful food and drinks by cheerful and helpful staff. That day, adidas and our guides met us at the lodge to discuss our climb and answer any of our final questions. They checked our gear to ensure we had what we would need to be successful. The next morning the team took us to pick up some gear we were renting and to get the porters and head to the market to get the supplies we would need. We booked a 6 day lemosho route. Our fitness level is pretty high and we ski at altitude so felt this was a good fit for us. Day 1 was hiked almost entirely in rain, given it was still part of the rainy season and we were in the rain forest zone. This wasn’t a surprise. A failure in our dry bag however caused my wife’s clothes and her sleeping bag to get wet. Unfortunately even with the best effort of our guides and porters we weren’t able to get things dried out and after a night at Shira II where it was colder we made the difficult decision to turn back. Our guides (Jackson and frank) and porters tried everything they could to allow us to continue on but ultimately supported our decision to hike back and made all the arrangements for us to do this. The entire team works so hard to make sure you are taken care of and happy and they take such pride in their work. It is infectious. Our meals prepared by Jeff were wonderful and mindful of the kind of food we needed for each day. Every night our health was checked and we discussed what the next day would entail. We are already discussing with chiefs coming back to finish what we started in 2024, so you can see how confident we are in this company and its dedicated employees. I highly recommend chiefs for your kilininjaro climb!

I am grateful to my guide Frank and the porters for the 6-day Lemosho route, which was an amazing experience. They planned a climbing plan that suited each person, and they were flexible during the climb. I was nervous because it was my first trip to Africa alone as a woman. Before making the reservation, I called and spoke to the person in charge (Adidas). They picked me up at the airport, so I didn't need to find a taxi. And on the way back, they picked me up at the designated hotel, so I didn't need to use a taxi during my stay. I could have arranged for a porter to be with me, but when I told them I wanted to climb with other climbers, they arranged it for me. On the third day, when I had a headache, my guide Frank told me to take painkiller (said Loxonin in Japan) and see how it went because the side effects of taking altitude sickness medicine were more scary. Also, my companion had been taking altitude sickness medicine since the middle of the climb, so I advised him to continue taking it even if he didn't have a headache. Thanks to that, my headache disappeared and I was able to climb without any problems even when I tried to reach the summit without getting altitude sickness. It was also helpful that they adjusted to my individual wishes, such as the time to leave camp for the summit attempt, and whether I would arrive in time for sunrise. I didn't mind not seeing the sunrise at the summit, so I used that time to sleep and focus on recovering my strength. Also, on the fifth day, when one of the other guides injured his leg after the summit attempt and was unable to walk, they quickly arranged for a helicopter (and confirmed that insurance was in place) and handled the accident smoothly. It was thanks to everyone that we were able to descend safely. Thank you very much.
