7-tägige Lemosho-Route Kilimanjaro-Besteigung in kleiner Gruppe von Arusha

Great Kilimanjaro trip. Accomodation good, food very good, guides and porters excellent. All safety equipment present and used appropriately, eg, oxygen and pulse oximeters. Saved £££s compared to UK operators with no compromises and no corners cut. Highly recommended.

My husband, his friend and I travelled to Tanzania at the end of June and climbed the Lemosho route with amazing support from the Meru Slopes crew. Our friend booked the adventure and he'd decided that he wanted to book directly with a local operator rather than a European intermediary. We're really glad that he did as by all accounts the owner (Geofrey) responded swiftly and professionally to every question posed to him before we'd even left the UK. When we arrived, we were met at the airport by a Meru Slopes rep and taken to a cozy guest house in Arusha, where we had dinner and rest before meeting Geofrey and the mountain guides. Geofrey and his team took time to check our kit to make sure we were fully prepared and recommended that we take Diamox tablets (for altitude sickness) we didn't have any, so they provided them for us. I thought these extra checks were brilliant and it made us three feel very safe. The 7-days were, by turns, challenging and exhilarating and the Meru Slopes team were incredible throughout. The three of us had differing experience levels and the guides took care to ensure we all received individual attention, whether this was describing the local flora and fauna, testing our blood O2 levels and singing to keep us motivated, they made sure we all got the most from the tour as safely as possible. Massive shout outs go to the guides William and Emmanuel, the chef (who made some delicious food and kept us hydrated and clean throughout) and the porters. It felt like the crew created a protective ring around us, they were absolutely fantastic. A well deserved 5*. Please note that after we completed the climb we went on the 5 days Serengeti Migration Safari and there's a separate review for this part of the trip.
