An Exceptional Kilimanjaro Experience with a highly professional, well-organized, and caring team
My partner and I chose the 7-day Machame Route with Kwesa Tours, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience!
From the very beginning, communication was exceptional. Edward provided us with all the information we needed before our trip, answered our questions, and helped us prepare for the expedition.
We reached the summit of Kilimanjaro on October 12, 2026, with an amazing team supporting us every step of the way.
A very special thank you to Haji, our guide, for his professionalism, extensive knowledge of the mountain, and, above all, the care and attention he gave us throughout the entire expedition, especially on summit day. His constant support and guidance made us feel safe and well looked after during every stage of the climb.
The food was delicious throughout the trek, and drinking water was available at every camp. The level of organization was truly impressive, from the chef and his assistants to the porters. Every member of the team played an essential role in making the expedition run smoothly. A huge thank you to all of them for their hard work and dedication in helping us make this dream come true!
Each day was very well organized. We started early with an excellent breakfast, followed by the day’s trek and a hot lunch upon reaching the next camp, with some time to rest afterwards. In the afternoon, we enjoyed tea and popcorn before dinner. These little comforts are especially appreciated after several hours of hiking in the mountains!
After dinner, Haji conducted a daily health check to see how we were feeling, measure our oxygen saturation, and check our pulse. This regular monitoring, along with his advice and explanations, gave us great peace of mind and confidence as we ascended to higher altitudes. We then had a detailed briefing about the following day’s itinerary, so we always knew what to expect.
Thank you, Kwesa Tours, for helping us achieve one of our biggest dreams and for making the experience so special through your professionalism, dedication, and genuine care. We are taking home unforgettable memories and immense gratitude for the entire team.
We highly recommend them to anyone planning to climb Kilimanjaro. You will be in great hands!
Kwesa Tours is a professional, caring, and reliable local family-run company whose exceptional team
KILIMANJARO – MACHAME ROUTE! 🏔️
An absolutely unique and unforgettable experience!
The service provided by Kwesa Tours was excellent, from the friendliness and attentiveness of the entire staff to the organization of logistics and meals.
A very special mention goes to our guide, HAJI, an exceptional person who, with great professionalism, dedication and genuine warmth, guided and motivated us to achieve our ultimate goal: REACHING THE SUMMIT OF KILI!
However, this achievement was not the result of one person’s efforts alone, but of an entire expedition team: our assistant guide, cook, camp assistant and porters. Every one of them worked incredibly hard and showed us such kindness and willingness to help that they became an essential part of our summit success.
Each day began with a good breakfast and a new trekking stage ahead of us. Along the trail, we always had water provided by the team. Whenever we reached our destination, we found our camp already set up and our food waiting for us: delicious, varied meals that were completely unexpected at such high altitudes!
In the afternoons, we enjoyed tea and popcorn, and by 6 p.m., dinner was ready. After dinner, our guides would come by to review the day, check our health by measuring our oxygen saturation and pulse, and explain the next day’s stage and planned schedule. That was how each day came to an end, with everything organized so we could rest and recover our energy.
Beyond their professionalism, we really want to highlight the incredible human qualities of the entire team: their generosity, warmth and constant willingness to help. Choosing a local, family-run company also made the experience even more meaningful, as it was a small way of giving back for everything they gave us throughout this journey.
KWESA TOURS, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
We wholeheartedly recommend them! They didn’t just help us reach the summit of Kilimanjaro; they made the entire journey an unforgettable experience.
YOU MADE OUR DREAM COME TRUE! ❤️

2 days safari tours with kwesa
We had a great time with our guides babu and douglas in tarangire national park and Ngorongoro crates. We planned and booked this last mins with Kwesa as we managed to complete kilimanjaro trek earlier than the original plan. Kwesa was flexible and trusted us enough to proceed the trip even not having received our card payment on their end (card payment might take some days especially on the weekend). In general, i highly recommend kwesa.

Experienced crew with customised feedback
I am extremely happy to have done Lemosho Route with Kwesa Company. When you do an adventure like this one, you need to go with a crew who understands your particular needs and know you are putting your life in their hands and I am glad I did it. Amazing experience, unforgettable hike and of course some nice pictures for Instagram.
I also booked two days safaris with them and I saw ffour of the big 5 just two meters away from me. A lion just in front of you is an experienced that you cannot forget simple as that.

Excellent service on and off the mountain
Kwesa tours is been excellent value for money and whilst still feeling like a premium service. We did 7day Machame rotue where we were very well catered for. They keep you well fed on the mountain and the guides we had (Haji, Tuliza, Abu) were knowledgeable, professional and entertaining with good English. It was noticed we had a better ratio of guides than larger groups which was very useful.
The company also supported our time in Tanzinia outside of kilimanjaro by providing guides and travel into town and trips to the local hot springs which was appreciated.
I would recommend this company to my friends

Unforgettable Kilimanjaro Adventure with Kwesa Tours – A Dream Achieved!
From June 27th to July 1st, I embarked on the incredible Kilimanjaro trek via the Marangu route with Kwesa Tours, and the experience exceeded all my expectations! The entire journey was well-organized, and the team provided exceptional support every step of the way.
A special thanks to:
Guide Kessy: His expertise, patience, and encouragement were vital in helping me reach Uhuru Peak. Without his guidance, the summit would have been much more challenging.
Cook Omary: The meals throughout the trip were delicious and energizing—a crucial factor for maintaining strength at high altitudes.
Thanks to their dedication, I not only fulfilled my dream of conquering Kilimanjaro but also created memories that will last a lifetime. Highly recommend Kwesa Tours for anyone seeking a professional, supportive, and unforgettable mountain adventure!
