Additional Information

The Lemosho route is one of our preferred routes due to its low traffic, beautiful scenery and a high summit success rate. The Lemosho route starts off from the west, beginning with a long drive from Moshi to Londorossi Gate. From there, the first two days are spent trekking through the lush rainforest to Shira Plateau. We recommend a minimum of 7 days to attempt this route but 8 days is preferable for better acclimatization and summit success. The Lemosho route joins the Machame route at Shira 2 Camp and then follows the same route through the southern circuit and descending at Mweka Gate.

2 Ladies Epic Lemosho Trek!!! - Last month Simba Adventures took us 2 ladies (my best friend and I) to the summit and back safely providing the best service from start to finish. We arrived in Tanzania and was transferred to our hotel in Moshi where we met Isaac and Benson who were our guides for the trek. They were superb during our trek keeping us safe, secure and well fed and in good health during the trip. Lemosho route was very scenic, with amazing views of the forest, rocks, birds and great views from the mountain. We maintained good speed during our trek following the clearly marked trail. We were lucky that we did not get severe altitude sickness and were able to acclimatize well. We reached the summit safely and had our moment of glory standing on top of Africa. I recommend Simba Adventures with all my heart.

Best Kilimanjaro Trekking Crew - My 4 friends and I recently climbed Kilimanjaro using the Lemosho route with one of the most thorough climbing crews I have come across in the past. They are very professional and organized in they way they run their company. Booking was handled by Simba who answered all our questions and gave us a lot of information about Kilimanjaro Climbing. Payment was done in two installments The Climb was handled by chief guide Isaack and assistant guide Benson with the support of porters and a cook. There are daily oxygen level checks in the morning after the day briefing ad in the evenings when we arrived at camp. Sleeping quarters were clean and comfortable Food was prepared daily by our cook and it was enough and also very considering it was done on the mountain. Getting to the Summit could not have happened if we had not been with Isaack and his mates. They took care of us and encouraged us a lot. They also treated my friend Sam who had difficulties on the Summit night with some herbal tea and we finally all succeed in getting to the Summit. Do not hesitate to book with company. They are simply the best.

Fantastic Climb - Lemosho with Experts - My Sister and I recently trekked to the summit of Kilimanjaro and had a very memorable experience climbing with the experts. We decided to go with Simba Adventures because of the positive reviews on Kilimanjaro and they had the most reasonable prices from the companies that we contacted. We decided to take the Lemosho route as it allows the body to get used to high altitude and low oxygen levels and thus has the highest success rates. When we arrived at the airport we had someone from Simba to take us to our hotel and also checked to confirm that we had the right gear. The actual climb was very good. Our chief guide Abbas held briefing sessions every morning explaining the activities planned for the day and also checked our oxygen levels. The food was prepared fresh and hot we got generous portions. The sleeping quarters were clean and comfortable. We chose a great company and they took perfect care of us enabling us to reach the summit successfully. Great company and highly recommended

Great Climb - After a long search we did Kilimanjaro with Simba Adventures. We were first drawn to Simba Adventures by the prompt email responses and good prices and good reviews when we checked their TripAdvisor. From our experience we found that this is a great company as they gave us the best service up and down the mountain. We had a team of expert climbers with Issack and Benson as our guides assisted by 6 porters and a great chef Joseph. We had been well advised on what to pack for the trek and they confirmed that we had everything during the evening briefing on the eve of the climb. We went on the Rongai route which has fewer climbing parties and we were virtually alone up during the climb making it quite nice. Issack and Benson were amazing, explaining so much about the mountain, the different habitats, animals, birds and other interesting facts about the stations. Our food was always good and Joseph served us generous portions to our fill, hot coffee to keep us warm in the morning and the evenings. The tents were also quite comfortable and the beddings very clean!!! We also had oxygen and health checks every evening which made us feel very safe. We successfully made it to the summit and the experience was from out of this world! I have no words to express my gratitude to the whole Simba Adventures team for taking us to the roof of Africa and back safely.

An experience of a lifetime - We (4 ladies) recently scaled to the summit of Kilimanjaro under the able guidance of Excellent guides from Simba Adventures who were under the able leadership of Oscar. We chose the longer and pricier Lemosho route so that we could get enough time to acclimatize for the final push to the summit. Our trek has been one great adventure, enjoying beautiful views and fauna as we scaled up the huge mountain. The guides took wonderful care of us, constantly checking on our condition, singing along the way to motivate us and ensuring that we were well fed during the whole hike. When we got to the summit the feeling was from out of this world and worth all the effort. I would not have gottent to the summit were it not for the motivation and support I got from the Simba Adventures Team. Thank you so much!!! You are the best in the business.
