Kilimanjaro Aufstieg, Marangu Route (6 Tage)

From start to finish, my experience with Altezza travel was absolutely incredible. I went from the 2nd October last year, and I realised having looked back at those fond memories that I hadn't done a trip advisor review as well as emailing my thanks. Here is my experience as a 19 year old solo female traveller! My arrival at the hotel went very smoothly, the truck to pick me up was on time and with a friendly driver, who assisted with my luggage. On arrival at the hotel, which was very clean and excellent service all round, I was introduced to Happy, who helped with my packing and checked everything was suitable and ready for the climb and she was a credit to the team, very reassuring and nothing was too much trouble. The next day we started on Marangu 6 day route, and I joined a team of 4 other climbers, our main guides Stanley and Valency, and the fantastic team of porters. I could go into so much more detail about the climb but here is my overall feedback of the trip: The porters were exceptional, assisting us with luggage, bringing all the food and supplies and the chefs were very talented, working off a mountain and yet giving us a range of nutritious meals, we never went hungry and everything was delicious. All of the team helped to boost morale, and were the backbone of our climb being successful. Now, Stanley and Valency are literal superstars, and immensely good at their jobs. Stanley was so knowledgable and had vast experience in the industry, and was the reason I made it to the summit, as well as assisting me down the part that I struggled with on descent from the summit, and for that I cannot thank him enough. Valency was so friendly, excellent mountain paparazzi and kept us all motivated whilst assisting everyone subtly and leading to their success. Both of them ensured we were warm enough, and gave us the best chance of success - all of our team made it to the summit! Truly the best experience ever, and I am so glad I chose to travel with Altezza, and the way they treat all their staff is excellent. I wish Stanley and Valency all the best, and thank you again.

I had a truly amazing experience with Altezza Travel. Everything was perfectly organized, and I always felt I could rely on the team throughout the entire hike. When my checked luggage was delayed, they generously lent me some hiking gear free of charge and even brought my belongings up to the mountain later. Their support and professionalism made the whole trip smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommended!
