Highlights

Rongai Gate (1950m)

Mount Kilimanjaro - Hiking time: 5 hours

Distance: Approximately 8 kilometers

Habitat: Montane Forest

After an early breakfast at your hotel, you will be picked up from Arusha (1400m) and driven to the Marangu Gate (1980m). At the gate, the porters will organize and pack the belongings for the hike while you and your guide register with the Tanzania National Park (TANAPA). You will then be transferred by vehicle to the Rongai trailhead, which is 2.5 hours away from the Managu Gate. The trail begins in the tall cornfields then leads into the pine forest. This trail has a gradual ascent and allows hikers to enjoy their surroundings. About halfway up the trail you will have a lunch break and you will reach the 1st Caves Camp (2600m) in the late afternoon or early evening. The porters and chef, who move very fast up the mountain, will reach camp before you and set up your tents, boil drinking water, and prepare snacks for your arrival. After washing up, a hot dinner will be served. For overnight, mountain temperatures may drop to freezing so be prepared!

     I cannot express how grateful I am to Kilisa - I was planning my trip for a long time. It took me a while to choose the right company to join, until I finally chose Kilisa.                                                                                                                                                                   Frankly, I cannot express how grateful I am to this local tour company for organizing my adventure. 13th - 19th February, I did Kilimanjaro 7-Days Rongai Route and there was 7 People between Guide, Chef and Porters looking after me throughout the whole trip at whole time as they went far and beyond their job description to make us feel comfortable, safe. They Mountain crew were supermen and exceeded my expectations because Besides ticking the “summit box” I also got the maximum enjoyment of the trip. Descended on 19th Feb and Had a rest the day after as I was ready for the next day for my 5-day safari to Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara. National Park I’ve been always fascinated by wild animals and untouched nature and thanks to local tour company my dreams came true! Professional guide, comfortable safari vehicles, all lodges I stayed at were amazing! My guide [Chris] was professional as during the game drive I saw Animals on their natural habitat. I was thrilled, I cannot even begin to name all animals I saw on our trip including the big5 My journey was impeccably managed from the first steps at airport Kilimanjaro until my departure. I’ve enjoyed this a great experience with Kilisa tours. Don't look elsewhere, choose Kilisa I cannot Imagine my Adventure without KIlisa guiding me through it all and for that I’d like to give thousands thanks to Naick for answering all my questions with patient, and gave me the satisfaction to every question I asked [even the silly ones] to finally have book with them and I do not regret as I Definitely had the best trip of my life!

Great company! - I booked through Kilisa to do 6 day Rongai route. They joined me onto a trek which was absolutely awesome. The hospitality of everyone as soon as I arrived, my driver, the hotel staff, the guides, porters, cooks were just absolutely fantastic. Naick was fantastic with sorting out any arrangements for me from the very first email to when I left to come home. I couldn't recommend Kilisa enough. Everyone looked after me so well and as a young girl, 22, a solo traveller that was such comfort for my family at home to know that I was in good, trustworthy hands. Thank you Kilisa! I'll be back for another route soon!
