Tour Overview

5 days mt. Kilimanjaro climbing via the Marangu route shared group joining tour packages in 2023, 2024, and 2025 at affordable prices Tourists who choose to climb Mount Kilimanjaro through the Marangu route 5 days trips are supplied with pillows and mattresses, but sleeping bags are still essential for the hiker(s). The huts have collective dining halls and basic washrooms, ranging from flushing toilets and running water at the lower huts to long drop toilets and buckets of water at Kibo Hut Many prefer to hike the Marangu route because it is considered to be a plain sail path on the mountain, given its gradual slope and [almost] direct path. However, the short time frame of the route makes altitude acclimatization fairly a challenge. Mount Kilimanjaro climbs Marangu route, also known as the "Coca-Cola" route, is the oldest, most well-known route on mount Kilimanjaro climb trips. Adventure along the Marangu route will get you to the top safely and this is the only path that offers overnight sleeping huts in the style of dormitory accommodations instead of camping equal to Mount Kilimanjaro climbs Machame route, Mount Kilimanjaro climbs Umbwe route, mount Kilimanjaro climbs Rongai route, and Kilimanjaro climbs Lemosho route. There is almost a total of 60 bunk beds each at Mandara and Kibo Huts, and 120 bunk beds at Horombo Hut on Mount Kilimanjaro climbs Marangu route.

Marangu covers forests, moorlands, and high-altitude desert will motivate hiker(s) and interest the team to hike along Marangu. Marangu route, unfortunately, has less beautiful natural scenery than the other routes because the ascent and descent climb trips are along the same path. 5 days Marangu route mount Kilimanjaro climb trips are the most crowded route for the same explanation. The Marangu route climbs Mount Kilimanjaro for minimum days are 5 days though you can climb Kilimanjaro on your trips for more than 5 days mt.

The hiker(s) begin the ascent to the summit very early in the morning (between midnight and two in the morning) over steep, heavy scree or snow up to Gilman's point, which is positioned on the crater flange. The highest peak in Africa, Uhuru Peak, is now reached after more hiking and ascent. Everywhere you turn, there are breathtaking vistas. To show your friends and family, hikers can get their photos taken at the peak. From there, we descend to the Horombo camping area, pausing at Kibo for lunch and a break before doing so. This ascent to the peak begins in the dark and requires the use of headlamps or flashlights. You will need all of your warm clothing and coats since it will be really chilly until you start descending. With several switchbacks, this is by far the hardest section of the hike. You may reach the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro climb, the highest point in Africa, by hiking gently and "pole." This method is the finest one to follow.

Reviews from travellers on this tour

Benedict  

Awesome Company in Tanzania

27-May-2021

Just completed the Kilimanjaro trek - and made it to the top - the Roof of Africa. It was a test for sure. My group of friends went with Africa Natural Tours Ltd. They never tired of all my questions before the climb. I recommend them for the trek. The guides were knowledgeable and very sympathetic to our needs, ie the breaks to catch our breaths! They had a chef to cook our meals. The porters were friendly and really helpful. So worthwhile going to the top with Godfrey's operation: they can be trusted to look after clients’ interests and safety. We toured three safari parks with Godfrey's and their guide had a great knowledge and instinct for the job. He clearly loved his job and this was reflected in his sharing all his experiences with us. The food and accommodations were great too - we had a professional chef for the safaris- freshly baked bread every day! I recommend Africa Natural Tours Ltd wholeheartedly. They are proud of, and thorough in the service they provide, and it shows.
