Trekking Mount Kilimanjaro with...

12-Sep-2023

Trekking Mount Kilimanjaro with Africa Natural Tours: 7-Day Machame Route I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a 7-day Machame Route tour with Africa Natural Tours, and the experience was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment I booked the tour to the very last step of the trek, every aspect of the journey was meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. Here's a breakdown of why I wholeheartedly recommend Africa Natural Tours for your Kilimanjaro adventure: Expert Guides and Crew: The success of any trek largely depends on the quality of the guides and support crew, and Africa Natural Tours exceeded all expectations. Our lead guide was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the region and its ecology but also had an uncanny ability to keep the group motivated and spirits high, even during the most challenging parts of the ascent. The entire support crew, from porters to cooks, worked tirelessly to ensure our comfort and safety throughout the journey. Well-Planned Itinerary: The 7-day Machame Route itinerary was well-balanced, allowing for ample acclimatization time and a steady pace of ascent. Each day's trekking distance was manageable, and the rest stops were strategically placed to provide stunning views and much-needed rest. The itinerary ultimately contributed to a successful summit experience without feeling rushed. Top-Notch Equipment and Facilities: Africa Natural Tours provided high-quality camping equipment that exceeded my expectations for a mountain trek. The tents were spacious and well-maintained, sleeping bags were warm and clean, and the dining tent was a comfortable space to enjoy meals and interact with fellow trekkers. Culinary Delights at Altitude: Surprisingly, the food on this trek was one of the highlights. Despite being at high altitudes, the skilled cooks managed to prepare delicious and varied meals that catered to different dietary needs. From hearty breakfasts to comforting dinners, the meals provided the necessary energy for the trek. Responsible Tourism and Ethical Practices: One of the aspects I truly appreciated about Africa Natural Tours was their commitment to responsible and ethical tourism practices. They ensured that the porters were well-treated, adhered to Leave No Trace principles, and supported local communities. This added an extra layer of satisfaction knowing that my adventure was contributing positively to the region. In conclusion, my 7-day Machame Route tour with Africa Natural Tours was an unforgettable adventure that exceeded all expectations. The combination of expert guides, a thoughtfully planned itinerary, excellent equipment, delightful food, and ethical practices makes this company stand out among the rest. If you're considering conquering Kilimanjaro, I wholeheartedly recommend entrusting your journey to Africa Natural Tours. They turned a dream into reality, and for that, I'm immensely grateful.
