Additional Information

Machame Route:

The Machame route is our most favored and triumphant trail to the peak of Kilimanjaro. Travelers lodge in tents that are transported up the mountain by carry-workers. This trail is immensely picturesque and appealing, which can be accomplished in 6 days, however, we advocate taking 7 days for the journey for adequate acclimatization. The charm of the Machame route lies in its layout, letting climbers ascend high and slumber low, which aids in better acclimatization.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Golden Team..! 💪 - This trip with Golden Summit Adventures was amazing! We heard about this organization and it over met our expectations! From the first briefing until return to our hotel at the end of the trek it was clear that we were in experienced, capable hands in Dulla and Jonhson our guides, chef, mountain soldiers (porters), and the quality of the service they provided. They gave nothing but positive energy, expert advice and encouragement throughout the entire expedition. We had total confidence in them throughout and they left us in no doubt that we were capable of reaching the summit. The team of support was excellent and we were in awe of the organization and level of commitment of each member. It was clear that our comfort and safety were top priorities for each team member. The food was plenty, varied and delicious. It was just perfect, nothing to add. I can't say enough good things about Golden Summit Adventures, and would recommend them enthusiastically and wholeheartedly to any of my friends or family who are looking for a Kilimanjaro Climb

Excellent, experienced crew - Company was well organized, down to the smallest details (e.g. having porters look after your belongings while you summit, and keeping meals interesting and filling), with experienced guides whose goal is to get you to the summit safely and teach you about the environment and culture along the way.

Best and most reliable Company in Tanzania - Very warm hearted and easy communication all the time. We had an amazing trek experience exploring the beautiful Mount Kilimanjaro with a professional guide who made our trek extraordinary…..they determined to deliver a unique, personalized and rewarding adventure by taking us up to the top of Africa. Golden Summit Adventures took very good care of myself and my cousin from the airport pickup to the top of Kilimanjaro and back. We did the 7-day Machame climb. The food was great and plentiful we could never finish it. Expect lots of porridge, french toast and omelets for breakfast, local stews, spaghetti bolognese, and chicken, fries and salads. Our chef Mapenzi would always check in every night to see how we were feeling and alter the menu slightly to suit our stomachs. If you have any dietary requirements be specific about them from the start. Don't be surprised by the number of porters... for 2 pax you'll typically get; 2 guides, a waiter, a chef and around 8 porters. The porters and cooks are all very nice and work extremely hard to make sure the client's experience is optimal. The views of Kilimanjaro and the experience overall is unlike anything I've ever done. Everything was awesome! The guides, the porters, the organ, equipment, ting, help, food, fun, weather........I highly recommend Golden Summit adventures if you want the best experience summiting Kilimanjaro!
