Additional Information

The Lemosho route is known as the most picturesque path on Kilimanjaro, offering broad views from different perspectives of the mountain. As a relatively recent trail, Lemosho is an excellent option for your ascent. We favor this route because it presents a perfect mix of lesser crowds, captivating landscapes, and a strong record of reaching the summit. Topi Adventure excels in leading climbs using the Lemosho route. A majority of our customers reach the peak of Kilimanjaro by this route, and they universally have a great experience. As such, Lemosho is highly endorsed.
The trail towards Kilimanjaro begins from the west, kick-started by a lengthy drive from Moshi to Londorossi Gate. The first two days are spent hiking through the rainforest to reach Shira Ridge. The Lemosho route covers the entire Shira Plateau, moving from west to east in a mild, rather level hike. The route is less crowded until it merges with the Machame route close to the Lava Tower.

Great hike with a great team - Emanuel and his team were amazing from start to finish. He took the time to help us plan the route and walk us through all the preparations. On the mountain, the Topi guides and porters were experienced, friendly, and a joy to climb with. I can't speak more highly of this team and everyone considering climbing Kilimanjaro should work with Topi Adventures.

A true mountaintop experience - Look no further - you have found your next adventure. Kilimanjaro is an incredible, but challenging endeavor. In order to get the most out of it, you're going to need the right team. I could give no higher recommendation than to consider Topi for your choice. Emmanuel and his team were incredibly organized and made sure that we were not only safe, but well taken care of the whole way. I was blown away by the attention and care each and every one of the thirty (!!) crew members took for our group of six climbers. Topi takes every detail into account so that you can focus on experiencing everything the mountain has to offer, which is indescribable.

Best Guide/Operator for Mount Kilimanjaro climb - Topi Adventure is the best tour operator one can rely upon to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. It's owner Emanuel is very polite, humble, well mannered and supportive person. All his crew members are very much experienced and well trained. They will leave no stone unturned to provide you with the best possible facilities and food up on the mountain. Each and every minute thing is very well taken care of by them and additionally, they also click beautiful pictures of you☺️. The guide, cook, porters, helpers everyone are well cultured and disciplined guys. You can blindly trust them on the mountain and they will not let you down. I personally liked the cook, Emanuel provided me with. Each and every meal prepared by him was absolutely mouthwatering and finger licking, which in return provided me with extra strength for my climb. Also, before and after the climb, one will be provided with the best hotel stay there is in Moshi, that too for no extra charges ;) Hence I strongly recommended everyone who is reading this post to blindly trust this review and plan your trip with Topi Adventure. Further, for any other questions or clarifications you can contact me on [email protected]. Just in case you need any additional information for your climb.

Excellent!! - We decided to go, got medical clearance, picked a route: Lemosho 8 day ... a good choice for maximizing altitude adjustment in the time we had. (We took diamox too - works but makes you pee lots!) To pick a company, we checked guide reviews and both found rave reviews for Emmanuel - Chief Guide and owner at Topi Adventures. So we went with Topi, who were the tops! They sent us all the info we needed, organized an add on trip in advance for us to Ngorongoro Crater, then met us at the pleasant Parkview hotel in Moshi they had booked for us to go through all our gear and make sure we had everything, and even adjusted their own prep to ensure gluten free food options and other needs we had. They teamed us with a very experienced lead guide Nelson and Ndessario - a senior guide who had trained many of the guides on the mountain and set an excellent 'pole pole' pace - a great choice. We also opted for the portable toilet - recommended!. Food all the way up was fabulous. Their care and attention to our health and to the pace that we could manage was spot on, and they took us all the way to the summit and safely down again. Nelson's transparent handling of our tips for the team members was also excellent, as was Ellie's support throughout. Their team were so good we wrote them all a song and we sang each other songs at the exit gate! BTW for the afternoon after coming down - book a massage and pedicure at Lala Salama Spa - totally worth it!
