My Hubby, John and I first climbed Kili in June 2015. We met a really awesome group of guys led by David who is the head guide. The team are really passionate about their jobs and love what they do making sure you enjoy every step of your journey. We loved the experience so much we went back in June 2018 with a group of friends to experience the Machame Route a 2nd time. The experience for us was even better than what we remembered the 1st time. Although the 2nd time was quite different to the first with heavy ice on the summit night. The porters as always were very friendly and welcoming, making sure they were always prepared and awaiting our arrival at each camp every day. Each day we were welcomed by singing, popcorn, biscuits, hot tea and coffee and of course the mandatory bowl of warm water to refresh ourselves. Each day had its own challenges but David and his team made each step a memorable one with the usual "Pole Pole" whenever we felt quite adventurous and wanted to motor ahead. The meals at lunch and dinner were spectacular and one would never know that they had been prepared on the mountain.
Overall, it was a breathtaking and an awesome experience for us and especially to experience the climb again with good friends and a team from Enjoy Kili who you could rely on at all times. Their experience over more than 20 years really showed in the manner in which they shared their knowledge and skills.
I would highly recommend David, Frazier and their team from ENJOY KILI.
