Expérience incroyable ! - We spent 6 days on the Kilimanjaro (Marangu Route) with Tanzania Joy Tours and we could not be more satisfied with all what they did for us during this wonderful experience ! First, the communication by email was quick and very clear, Emmanuel was very helpful. Then, the crew we had for our ascension was incredible : 2 amazing guides, very skilled and ready to help anytime, 1 excellent cook, and 6 porters, who were always there when we needed anything. We loved the atmosphere created by the crew during the week : the smiles, the encouragements, the laughs, the great discussions, the little kind attentions, it played a great part in the experience. It is unforgettable… The ascension was perfectly organized, and this is mainly thanks to this team and to the guides’ advice that we managed to go to the top ! We could not recommend more Tanzania Joy Tours :) Thank you for everything !

Trekking to Uhuru Peak via Marangu Route. - My team were 6-persons who had experience in doing the climbing with them, it was good. Assistance guides was controlling his paths for us to follow. The Real Pole-Pole was happening for our team to do. This strategy could be the Winner Strategy for us to reach the Summit of Uhuru Peak. The most important for us was during our trek toward Summit, each ones of us did not carry any Day-pack, instead was assisted by assistance guide n portals. Even though no Day-pack, we felt so hard for us to move up n up. Only Patient that gave us the strength to move forward step-by-step. This trip was the first times for us to visit Africa and Foods was really Challenging for us. We have rice every day back home, like wise, For lunch, we had only Lunch Box so little Carbohydrate Loading as we used to have n dinner serves with soup n little protein n little Carbohydrate. The supporting team that was given by Tanzania Joy Tours for our team (6-persons) consisted of: 1-Guide; 2-Assistance Guide, 1-Chef n 22-Porters. We were wondering why so many supporting teams to join our trip. We had different experience with our trips in Nepal whereas every huts owned by a family who provide their services to serve breakfast or lunch or dinner. Anyway, Over all, we were satisfied with the assistance given by Tanzania Joy Tour - Mr. Emmanuel. Big Thank you. Regards///Simba as a Babu.
