An absolutely amazing experience climbing Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho Route with Almighty. Every member of staff went consistently above and beyond to ensure our safety and satisfaction. The porters did an amazing job carrying all of the gear and always had camp set up for us before we got there. The chefs managed to make great food despite the confines of space and being on the side of a rather large mountain! The guides were always conversational and friendly and more than happy to help us in any way they could such as carrying day packs for those who were struggling more on the climb. Our group always felt safe and supported and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on this trip. Thank you for such a great time. Special thank you to Swalehe for the humour and keeping spirits high on summit night and throughout the whole trekShow more

  As I understand, only the Marangu route offers hut accommodations. Is that correct? Is this route strenuous?
- Almighty KilimanjaroOperator•Written June 2022
  Yes it's the only route which offer Hut as accommodation, the northern circuit in terms of high success rate beat marangu route by far
