8 dagen beklimmen van de Kilimanjaro (Lemosho-route)

I had high hopes for the 8-day Lemosho Route trek, but unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations. From the very beginning, communication was inconsistent and unclear. Our guide seemed disorganized and uninterested, often rushing through briefings and providing little to no information about the day’s route, altitude adjustments, or what to expect. The quality of the equipment was also subpar—tents leaked when it rained, and the sleeping pads were worn out and thin. For the price we paid, I expected at least reliable gear. Meals were repetitive and lacked nutrition, which definitely affected our energy levels as we ascended. What bothered me the most was the lack of support during the more difficult sections of the climb. Some members of our group were clearly struggling with altitude sickness, and the guides didn’t seem properly trained to handle it or recognize the signs early. Safety did not feel like a priority. The Lemosho Route itself is beautiful, but it was hard to appreciate the scenery when everything else felt so chaotic and unprofessional. I would recommend the route, but not with this company.

I booked the tour well in advance attracted by the price and the climb duration. Initially I did not know what to expect but I was impressed by Edward and this team. I changed the date a few dats before and KWESA sent me by myself with a team. I also have special dietary requirements and these were carefully listened and accomodated at the hotel and on the mountain. Robert Mbuya the guide made the climb possible advising me at each step when to speed up or conserve my energy. Based on this amazing experience having a few days to spare I decided to take a 4 day Safari which turned out to be equally amazing. I had some free days and KWESA took care about my accomodation and all the transfers, so I didn't have to stress about painful logistics. I 100% recommend them to be contacted and arrange a dream trip in Tanzania working with a local company.

Took a private tour with my 10 year old son. Kwesa tours provided the best guides in Tuliza and Geofrey who cared for us all along. They were both knowledgeable and very flexible and sought to find the best solution given my son’s low age. The food and services provided was top notch and we were very well cared for with hot tea, snacks, warm water for washing etc. Unfortunately we didn’t make it to the summit due to my son not coping with the altitude the fifth day and had to be evacuated from the mountain. Tuliza and Geofrey knew what to do and acted quickly and forcefully by hastily carrying him down until he recovered.
