About
The Umbwe route is known for its caves. The first night you actually sleep at the Umbwe Cave Camp with two more caves that can be visited en route the following day. Because of the high risks involved with sleeping at Arrow Glacier camp and summiting via the Western Breach, all our Umbwe route hikes are re-routed, to join with the Machame route from night 2 on the mountain. On special request, we can assist with Umbwe route hikes attempting to summit using the Western Breach / Arrow Glacier path and overnight at the Crater camp. Please note this can only be arranged through our higher quality Standard packages and a supplement rate will apply.

- Sunshine599958918050 contributionsAmazing experience and team. 10/10.Team was amazing, ensured we were safe, gave plenty of washing and drinking water and the food/chef was pleasantly surprising, much better than some local restaurants! Everyone was easy to work with and they do things properly in the right way. They moved at our pace and also helped when I got sick due to the altitude, and ensured we still hit the summit. Cannot recommend enough. Asante sana brothers.Written April 11, 2024

- carmenrF3417EL0 contributionsBeautiful trip, amazing people!The tour was absolutely amazing! Thanks to Shungu everything was taken care of.

Thanks a lot for the wonderful tour, we will not forget it:)Written March 11, 2024
- 167fg0 contributionsShungu, the best tour operator for east AfricaI already made the mount Kilimandscharo with Shungus team and that was already a great experience. But this time it was unbelievable, we made Kenia, Tansania und Uganda. Shungu took care about everything. He even welcomed us at the boarder of Tansania. The hole trip was amazing and we didn’t had the feeling that we missed anything. Everything what we expected, was included. And our highlight was definitely the great migration 🤩 We can definitely recommend Shungu, not only for the Kilimandscharo 😊 Thanks Shungu for the amazing experience and hopefully see you soon.Written November 6, 2023

- jayveet20230 contributionsWonderful experience from the footsteps of The Giant Mount Kilimanjaro.Wow!, these falls are really stunning because it is a great hike and a great place to connect with nature. This place surprised me very much the views are perfect and swimming under the falls is a really nice activity. The water is really cold but if you're up to it it's great! This is usually part of a day trip where after the hike you get to try local stuff like homemade coffee from nearby coffee plantations and banana beer. I would highly recommend making it a day trip to the falls.Written February 23, 2023
