Recently we completed an 8 day trek on Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho route with Signature Safari. Our team was 12 with 3 clients, 2 guides, a cook, waiter, and 5 porters. Our guides Michael and Rodman were fantastic! They helped us stay on top of our hydration, helped us stay on a “pole pole” pace, and were a strong source of motivation the entire trek —especially the last day up to the summit. A fire on the east face/base of Kilimanjaro almost cut our trip short by day 3, but thankfully it was controlled and we were able to continue. Our cook Josaphat was amazing— the food was consistently plentiful and quite tasty. We had hot coffee/tea 3x/day every day and even at Stella point! The porters on our trip were all very nice and super helpful with carrying the fuel, food, and dining tent up and down the mountain. We are thankful to the whole team for the incredible experience, especially our guides for there inspirational singing towards the summit and nimble fingers for assisting with zippers and backpack straps when ours were cold on the way to the top. Overall we recommend Signature Safari and everyone on our team— Micheal, Rodman, Bonphas, Josaphat, Dayo, Bolo, Robert, Hedi, and Kimati! Asante sana!
