Safari summary

For this Kilimanjaro group, we recommend choosing the 8-day Lemosho route. The advantage of this package is that it takes a long duration over eight days, so this helps with acclimatization and increases fitness levels for a successful summit of Uhuru Peak. Primarily, the advantage of 8-day sharing group By joining a climbing group, climbers can share costs, gain experience, make new friends, and gain motivation throughout the trek. The Lemosho Route is considered the most beautiful of all the trekking trails up Mount Kilimanjaro. It crosses the entire Shira Plateau from west to east in a pleasant, relatively flat hike

The price for an 8-day Mount Kilimanjaro group joining via the Lemosho route starts at $1980 per person for all 8 days. This is the general cost; when you join a group, the cost will be calculated and minimized depending on the number of people in your group, which includes all park fees, all meals, a professional guide, porters, and rescue fees.

Kilimanjaro joining groups typically consist of 4–10 climbers, and sometimes up to 18 climbers. This ensures that the group is small enough to provide personalized attention and support but large enough to share the experience with other climbers.
