An Unforgettable Adventure: The Best Trip of My Life with Kilele Climb Tours - This was the best trip of my life!!! It was great from start to finish. Everything was perfectly planned. The crew was incredibly kind, and we shared laughs even during the hardest parts of the summit push. The food was delicious and exceeded my expectations. I will forever be grateful for the hospitality of everyone involved and would highly recommend Kilele Climb Tours. 10/10

GREAT EXPERIENCE with KILELE Climb Tours - Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro was one of the most exhilarating and transformative experiences of my life. From the breathtaking landscapes to the sense of achievement upon reaching the summit, every step of the journey was both challenging and deeply rewarding. The Kilele Climb Tours helped to achieve that. This is a great company to select for that adventure, it is very friendly, professional and careful. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to support the local business and make sure they won't be led down. The trek itself offers a stunning variety of terrains, from lush rainforests at the base to rocky, lunar-like landscapes as you approach the summit. Each day presents a new challenge, but also a unique beauty that makes every mile worth it. The guides and porters were exceptional—knowledgeable, supportive, and truly passionate about ensuring that everyone reached the top safely. The arrangements provided by Kilele are of high standard including the lovely food during the climb, a comfy tent and all support provided day by day for the whole trip

Kilimanjaro with the bucolic route and inspiring leader - We spent the last week trekking in Kilimanjaro with Summit Climb. As an active couple we wanted to challenge ourselves, live a human experience, and achieve a summit ascent and descend in a safe maneer. Our Guide / Expedition Leader Magdalena took care of the logistic flawlessly, shared her passion and expérience in high altitude to pace and push us to the summit. She instilled a sense of cohesion, safety and chose a route with least people. The camp were set well before the group arrival, the food diverse and Cathering various needs. Some surprises to make the experience enjoyable. We will consider another destination with summit climb and recommend to the nature lover. The staff cohesion was great, resourceful to adapt and support. Cheerful bunch of porters and guide.

Kilimanjaro - August 2023 - We started from the Rongai Gate (team of 12 hikers) and had the mountain to ourselves until camp 5. Beautiful weather the entire 5 days to the summit, base camps were all well organized, food was excellent, Tanzanian guides and porters went out of their way to make our hike a memorable experience. When the airline didn’t deliver my gear, Becky Alexander at Kilele Tours called the airline and airport and took ownership of my delivery. Went from a potential disaster to a grateful client! Acclimatization, hydration and outstanding guides are key to a successful summit. I highly recommend Kilele Tours and Summit Climb for a trip of a lifetime!

Climbing Kilimanjaro supported a fantastic team of experts - Amazing experience. We booked the 7 day tour that combines the northern Rongai route with descent via Machambe. We were 2 people and joined by one other individual. 10/10 from start to finish. Communication flawless. Logistics worked a treat (pick up / drop off from airport etc Tour itself amazing … so many fantastic features eg - private toilet (as a woman I really really appreciated this - a sit down toilet steps away from the tent is very useful .. who knew you pee ALL THE TIME at high altitude! It’s not fun in such cold temperatures I tell you!!! But so much easier when it’s steps away rather that having to traipse to the nearest public loo or to find a rock or bush - delicious and plentiful food (huge and varied breakfast including toast, fruits, pancakes, omelettes, tea / coffee etc then lunch - always a delicious soup first (eg courgette / butternut / cucumber / veggie usual served with something like toast or, my personal favourite, yellow lentil puffs followed by carbs of some kind (potatoes, rice, pasta) and meat (eg chicken or beef) as well as a selection of fresh veggies .. and always followed by fresh fruit. Honestly, so much food - and catering for all needs eg veggie etc. oh and I forgot - coffee and popcorn as an afternoon snack and goodies for during a hike (eg apple juice / a cake). You definitely won’t go hungry and maybe will even come home with a recipe or two. - experienced and knowledgeable guides with excellent English willing to share details surrounding history, culture, language, experience, nature) these are guys who know the mountain like the back of their hand (I kid you not - for the summit day I got up there using hands and poles (and painkillers!) whilst they strolled up with their hands in their pocket. Seriously incredible. You are in the best hands. We (my husband and I) both made it up the summit thanks to them. - friendly, efficient, happy team. Amazing porters who zoom up and down the mountain carrying crazy amounts of goods yet always get there ahead of you and have the whole camp set up before you arrive (your tent, the loo, the eating tent, the cooking tent etc). Seriously impressive especially as they always do it with a smile on their face. Pole pole might be the motto for us but everything they did was quick and efficient… and so appreciated. - above and beyond attitude - one guy in our group got very sick (altitude is not a nice beast!) and needed to get down. The rescue helicopter could not come due to weather so the team carried him down the mountain on a stretcher to the nearest camp where he could be picked up by ambulance. That’s a full size adult carried over rocky, steep, challenging ground at 4000m altitude for around 4 HOURS. This task was taken up without question and upon their return were still smiling. Nothing short of top class. These guys have my utmost respect. Absolutely no complaints - 5 star rating. Go with them.
