7-day trip: Climbing Kilimanjaro via the popular 7-day Machame Route

What’s better than climbing Kilimanjaro? Climbing it via the Machame route, the officially most beautiful climbing route in the world! Prepare for stunning views of Mount Meru, an impressive ascent along the Barranco wall, well-maintained hiking trails and diverse nature since you take a different route for the descent – two for one, so to speak 😉

Simply enjoy this wonderful adventure and the view once you have reached the top – a moment you will think back to for the rest of your life.

SHEDRAJIO SAFARIS OFFERS A UNIQUE SERVICE THROUGHOUT THE CLIMB

Climbing Kilimanjaro is the ultimate challenge! Little details can make a world of difference, which is why with us, you climb with professional guides, porters, and a cook. They take care of you during your ascent via the Marangu route, by checking your health twice a day and serving you delicious food. Sounds like a bit much? Not if you want to reach the top! Because we know that altitude sickness can creep up on you unnoticed and that proper nutrition* is essential to keep you going during a strenuous climb.

Besides, we offer a comprehensive information package to help you prepare for your climb via the Marangu route. It gives information about Tanzania and Mount Kilimanjaro, how to best prepare and what materials to buy or rent. And did we mention that we are a partner of the Kilimanjaro Responsible Travel Organisation (KRTO)? That means we take care of our crew and the mountain during our climb, making sure you can climb with a clear conscience. Are you ready for an unforgettable experience?
