We made the trekking with Africanspoonbilltour placed in Moshi - Tanzania. All was good and we reached the top without any problem. The guide, Praygod, was perfect together with all the staff. more

We used this company for climbing Kilimanjaro & safari in Tanzania - and they were absolutely fantastic. Alex - the owner - personally picked us up and was there to meet and greet us at each key time. They took extreme care to ensure our comfort and safety and the Impala Hotel Moshi is a super location. The guides they... more

We had planned for over a year and a half to come to Tanzania in Sept and attempt to Climb Kilimanjaro. We had been training hard, lots of hill walking and being up Snowdon most weekends - We had chose Shira route taking 8 days in total on the mountain. We didnt really want it to be the 2 of... more

On the 4th September 2009 at 6.45am we made it to Stella Point, followed by Uhuru Peak at 8.00am which meant we had successfully reached the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro (elevation 5,895 metres or 19,340 feet). We completed the Machame Trek over 7 days which.

I went with Ultimate Kilimanjaro. The guide, Richard, was awesome, the porters worked so hard, the food was way better than I expected. Except for the summit day, it was easier than I expected. The summit day was hard as could be, but still awesome. more

However, the experience was offset by the five days of relatively short hikes at a frustratingly slow pace that it took to get there. If you want the bragging rights... more

Most people, when writing about a Kilimanjaro trek, focus on the climb, the environment and the challenges. No wonder. The whole experience was tremendous. My own most enduring memories, however, are of the guides, porters and cooks who took us up there. Whilst I (and probably most of my fellow tourists) were struggling up with day packs, the porters and... more

My wife and I have just returned from a climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro. We climbed the Marangu route, which has the added benefit of staying in huts (as opposed to tents) during the climb. Our team consisted of 7 people (4 women, 3 men), most of whom knew each other before this adventure. The trip was organized by the group,... more

I have just recently used ‘Focus in Africa’ for climbing Mt Kilimanjaro. I was extremely pleased with the whole process right from start to finish the service was five star, in most cases the service was better than what I would receive back home in Australia (and that defiantly says something for the company!) Right from my initial enquiry to... more
