          Awesome company - best on the mountain.
          Undoubtably the best company on the mountain. Excellent team of people who supported our every step to make our summit dream come true. Meals were top notch and every effort was made for us to have the best experience possible. There should be not other company to consider.

          This is the only Kilimanjaro company you should consider - 5+stars
          Incredible company. Professional, caring and fun to be with. The support was excellent and trekking meals delicious under such difficult situations. Great tents and other equipment in camp. The very best part is the team. Absolutely loved every person from Guide Private who supported our team.

          Dreams come true.
          Absolutely the best guide in Paul and his team anyone could ask for. Our group was looked after with great care from the whole team. 13 started at the bottom and we all made it to the summit in great shape. This was due to Paul and his team’s professionalism and care to get us there and back down safely. Highly recommend. Steve and Mary.

          Paul and Guide Private could not have done more to get us to the summit.
          The weeks climb was challenging for out group of 49 to 63 year old trekkers however all 13 made it to the summit due to the expertise of our wonderful guides and porters. They knew just when to step in and support us, before we even knew we needed help. We were extremely well cared for with great food, soups, rice, stews, fresh fruit and vegies, porridge, popcorn, hot drinks and vegetarian and gluten free meals. The porters carried porta-loos from camp to camp so we didn't have to use public amenities. Warm water was brought to our tents for washing on most days, hot drinks as well before breakfast. The guides and porters were engaging, knowledgeable and entertaining. Great singers too. We camped in some amazing place, above the clouds for 3 days, it really felt like we were on top of the world.

          Once in a lifetime experience
          I recently visited East Africa on a business school trip, and decided to climb Kilimanjaro with a friend. We were referred to Paul through another friend and could not be happier with how it turned out. Paul and his team of legends were absolutely first class in helping to organise and execute the trip. He arranged accomodation in Arusha (a nearby city) and a driver to get around prior to the hike. Then throughout the 6 day hike the whole team were amazing. The porters were essential in helping us get the essentials up and down the mountain, and the chef prepared some super tasty meals to keep our energy up. Both Paul and his assistant guide Lagos were professional, but also had a great humour and made the experience enjoyable even on summit night. 10/10 would recommend! One of the most memorable trips of my life.

          amazing experience ! Paul's staff is very nice and pleasant. It was a very special adventure
          The organization of the trip was very good and pleasant. Paul was available for any of our requests before the trip, and also during the trip. We got to know the team and the feeling was very good and pleasant throughout the climb up the mountain. Paul helped us a lot to manage to climb and reach the top. Very professional staff, very pleasant and sensitive. The tent, food and equipment were great! For a fee, Paul took care of sleeping bags and a coat for us which were not at the level we expected, and it would have been better to rent this equipment ourselves. In our opinion, the trip was more expensive than we had planned and from what other travelers told us, in addition the staff pushed for us to end the trip a day before even though we had already paid them for the extra day and we did not receive a refund not even for lodging at the place we arrived on the night we were supposed to witness the trip. That caused a bit of an unpleasant feeling at the end of the trip.

          Great climb, Great experience
          I just loved the Lemosho route. July 2021 was my second climb of Mount Kilimanjaro. The first time I used the marangu route (Coca Cola route) but for sure the lemosho route has been just spectacular. Great views and challenges (the Baranco wall also known as breakfast wall was my favorite). The guides and the team was just superb. We were told as we go up, we might be loosing appetite, fortunately none of my friends nor spouse had this problem, for sure I will link this to the delicious fresh food that was cooked by our chef. The tents and sleeping bags were clean and nice, the porters were just as efficient in their work and very friendly. If you want a perfect and relaxed climb, then you know who to go to, Paul and his team were there all the time to provide information and tips to successfully conquer the mountain. The whole team of 8 people made it to the top.

          Experience of a lifetime
          Paul and the team were amazing and helped us to realize our dream to climb the Kilimandjaro! If you have any doubt, don’t and go with Paul: the team is awesome, the material as well and the food is very tasty (the chef is really amazing in these conditions!)… in short: go for it :)

          One in a lifetime!
          Prepare well to deal with the cold. Do not rely on your phone to take pictures, and push for the best pose and smile 😆 (it won't be natural). Focus on the moment and enjoy the journey!

          Great Work by Paul and the team
          This was a well managed operation. Good quality tents. Guides - Paul, Stanley, Isaac, Cosmos, Freddie (i can't remember everyone) - all excellent. Very helpful and professional management of the entire guide and porter team. Even in trying conditions - snow storms, rains etc - the lads still had the tent up and a meal ready. Highly recommended.

          Climbing Killi in comfort
          Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is not a decision you make lighty and once made I assume for most, like me, your head is filled with thoughts of trepidation. I recetly completed the trekk with Paul and his team (Stanly, Fred, Isaac, Coleman, Cosmos and so many more) and I can honestly say that I have never enjoyed an adventure experience like this before. Everyone and I mean everyone was fantastically friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The food was great, the facilities were perfect and the attention to the safety of the group and myself as an individual was spot on - I felt safe and informed about the trip from the first camp through sumit day and then down again. Thanks for a fantastic time guys I know I will remebver you for a long time and will always be recommending you.
