About
If Marangu is the “Coca Cola” route, then the Machame Route is the “Whiskey” route. It is the second most popular and one of the most scenic routes on the mountain.
All climbers sleep in tents (tents are included) and meals are served in a dinner tent or on a blanket outside.
It is done over 6 days, so acclimatization is easier, and the success rate is fairly high. It is for physically fit people with some hiking experience. Descent is down the Mweka trail staying at the Mweka or Millennium camp the final night on the mountain.

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 522juliust0 contributionsRemembble safariI really appreciate mr Godfrey from my heart ❤️, he do help my family to do this trip , we did see animal but was not as our thinking, great job friendsWritten November 4, 2024
- S5166DZmartinn0 contributionsTerrible - Didn’t show up, didn’t want to refund me.Terrible experience - nobody showed to pick us up. After waiting for 2.5h from 5AM to 7:30AM the operator told me they have made a mistake and their driver went to another hotel. Communication was also terrible, I requested a full refund (1381$) because of no show but the operator tried to scam me for 345$ and approved only partial refund (1036$). I had to complain to the TripAdvisor support to be able to get all my money back. For first time on TripAdvisor an operator doesn’t show up and ruins my plans.Written October 5, 2024

- Cruiser269638289260 contributionsExperience Zanzibar Tours and Safaris' dedication to provide a customised and immersive experienceExperience Zanzibar Tours and Safaris' dedication to provide a customised and immersive experience is what really makes them stand out. Their attention to detail was excellent, and they went above and above to make sure our vacation was customised to our interests. They went above and beyond to make sure our time in Zanzibar was genuinely exceptional, whether it was by suggesting the best eateries in the area or setting up unique activities like a sunset dhow cruise.Written September 2, 2024
- P481SAdanielh0 contributionsExperience Zanzibar - 2 day safari to SadaaniA very positive experience. We are from London and were initially hesitant to book directly with a local company but how wrong we were. Godfrey arranged everything very well and the whole trip ran very smoothly. Prompt pick up from our hotel initially was reassuring and thereafyer all transportion and pickups were on time and comfortable. Our guide Leopad was wonderful. Charming, knowledgeable, patient and helpful. Accommodation at Saadani was simple but fit for purpose. Safari - particularly the boat safari - was incredible. Saw loads of animals. Thank Godfrey. Great trip!Written August 19, 2024

- kevalchandt0 contributionsThey have my recommendation.After contacting multiple companies to arrange a two-day safari from Zanzibar, we decided to go with Experience Zanzibar Tours and Safaris due to positive online reviews. With them, we went on a safari to Selous. It was the finest deal with top-notch service. The safari schedule was slightly altered, but we didn't miss anything. Together with them, we also went to Nakupenda and Prison Island. Godfrey, Abrahams, and the drivers they hired did a great job serving us. They have my recommendation.Written August 3, 2024

- C5006XPzaina0 contributionsWorst tripBad experience all is bad they’re the worst tourist group a negative trivia experience can significantly impact participant satisfaction and future engagement. To improve, organizers should focus on designing well-balanced and clearly worded questions, ensuring competent and engaging hosting, addressing technical issues, balancing teams, providing diverse topics, enforcing rules against cheating, managing time effectively, creating an interactive format, and considering inclusivity. Addressing these areas can lead to a more enjoyable and fair trivia experience for all participants.Written June 24, 2024

We climbed Kilimanjaro 6 days, thankfully we reached the top of mountain Kilimanjaro. Guests were very happy. Godfrey suggested I & Elineema to be guides to ensure guests reach the top and return safely. I love my job and happy to recommend Godfrey and his company
