Kilimanjaro 5 star all-inclusive climbing trip.
We did a 2 person private 8-day climb via the Northern Circuit of the Kili. Our guides were really great people and did everything to make us feel good. The porters maked sure we arrived in a comfortable camp and the cook made lovely food 3 times a day. (Still don't know how he did it, but thanks Manuel!)
Even more important when things got tough, the guides were a great mental support and helped us to the top.
During the last part of the descent my left knee was really painfull and stopped working, the guides and porters just carried me to our camp on their back. They did everything just to make it as comfortable for us.
It's was a great experience, thanks to all the porters, our guides, Tumain and Dismass and Herman for the warm welcome in Tanzania.

If you want to experience Tanzania, this is the organization you want to go with!!
We were climbing Mt Kilimanjaro with a group of 8. The welcoming was warm, the lodge very nice, the whole group guiding us was very friendly (every day the camp was ready at arrival and everybody was welcoming us and telling us we were doing a good job), the equipment (tents) was good, the food amazing! (3 meal courses throughout the whole week!) and the capable and patient guides made sure we all felt safe, healthy and happy during the whole week. After one week together it felt like we climbed with 48 friends in stead of 8. We felt sorry to leave the group, the mountain and the country. i would definitely recommend Herman & crew for exploring Tanzania. We hope to come back.

Great group of guides, cooks and porters make our trip unforgettable!
Tanzania climbing outfietters made sure we had an unfortgettable experience.
The guides are very professional, talk perfect english and are very friendly. Also many of the porters talk English and I have had a laugh with many of them during popcorn time. Tents were big enough and we always had the best spots at the camp sites. Cooks made perfect breakfast, lunch and diner.
During the time I felt (altitude) sick they helped me by carrying my luggage and my personal guide helped me all the way to the top! Without his patience and perseverence I would not have made it.

No mountain too high; No no limits, we’ll reach for the sky!
Tanzania Climbing Outfitters made the trip an amazing experience. Thanks to all the helpful porters and guides we managed to reach the next camp every day, resulting in a beautiful sunrise at the summit of the Kilimanjaro. Next to all the support from these guys the cooks managed to give us very tasteful meals three times a day. After climbing the Kilimanjaro we did a 4 day safari tour to Ngoro Ngoro and Serengeti where we with the help of our driver and guide managed to spot all the African animals we wished for.

Amazing experience on Mt. Kilimanjaro
6 blind persons, 2 blinddolded persons, tv crew & cameras. amazingly dedicated guides and a geeat support staff made our climb a great success. Herman and his team are the best if you are ever considering a climb on Mt. Kilimanjaro.
From arrival up till departure. Everything was handled with the greatest care.
Best Guides on Killi
Everyone at this company is great from the porters to the guides. Herman the company owner and head guide is unbelievable. I felt like he could guide us up the mountain blindfolded that is how many times he has personally reached the summit. They do everything for you but carry you up the mountain. Tents and meals are prepared before you reach camp and they are flexible with pace to ensure safe and the most successful trip possible. I can't say enough about Herman and his guys. They were reccomened to me from a Tanzanian friend and they did not disappoint!!! Go with they guys and have an amazing experience on the way to the top of Africa!!!

Magnificent!
If you’re looking for the experience of a lifetime, look no further. Because of the level of service offered by TCO, my stay in Tanzania was one of the greatest experiences of my life. The climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro was more than I could have ever expected. Any hesitation or fear I might have had prior to climbing had completely vanished by the time the journey up began. I was so well informed of what to expect and how we, as a team, were going to make it up together. We were informed of the health measures that would be taken to ensure our well being while climbing. From checking our oxygen output levels to the nutritious meals that would be provided us nightly. I was made to feel safe and confident.
The safari was breathtaking, being up close to the most magnificent creatures on the planet. We saw rhinos, giraffes, an elephant migration, wildebeests, lions, hippos, and the list goes on! We had a black mane lion walk directly in front of our van and have a standoff with a water buffalo 60 yards from us! Ok, maybe 100 yards, but it was awesome!
Go with Tanzania Climbing Outfitters!
Kili, we did you!
Climbing the Kilimanjaro was an unforgettable experience. From the 31 Augustus until the 5th of September we climbed the mountain together with an amazing team of Tanzania Climbing Outfitters & Safaris Ltd.
Each day we walked a maximum of 6 hours. The routes and views were incredible. Together with our great guides we walked everyday to the next camp. We walked and slept on different heights to make sure we were able to acclimatize. It was tough, cold but all worth it. On the 5th day we made it to the top in 6 hours. We were exhausted but the view and the experience to be on the roof of Africa was such a great feeling. Something we will never ever forget. A big cross at our Bucket List!
Thank you very much for the organization, service, professionality & hospitality!
