Outstanding - Incredible from start to finish
5/5

From start to finish Almighly Kilimanjaro was AMAZING!

I did the 7 day Lemosho Route and had such an incredible experience with John and the team!

My guide John was professional, knowledgable and friendly and although I was the only person on the trek he put me at ease straight away, was always on hand for any questions and each day always discussed what the plan was for the following day. I felt at ease and knew I was in safe hands! During the trek he ensured that I was feeling fit and well and his motivation, support (and patience) successfully got me to the summit.

The whole crew were amazing, I was served delicious meals and definitely did not go hungry and the porters are just incredible making sure that everything is set up for you as soon as you get to each camp, I can’t imagine how difficult it all is logistically but they make it look so easy and always had a smile on their face!
What a team!!!

I would 100% recommend Almighty Kilimanjaro and I will definitely be back next year for Safari.

Great care of us!
5/5

Ok, Kilimanjaro was super hard, I had altitude sickness from day 2, got cold and overall realized mountain climbing is harder than I thought! However, I’m reviewing the team and the company and it was all excellent! We had three porters each, great cook and 2 guides for 3 people and they made our experience very nice. They were welcoming, encouraging us to get to the end and personally one of the guides Isa dragged me the last 30 mins to the summit, otherwise I wouldn’t have made it. Emmanuel was the lead guide and he was very knowledgeable, took great care of us but also encouraged us with some songs and silly chants when we were about to give up going up the summit. So, don’t underestimate how difficult this can be, try hiking up another 4K mountain first just to see how it goes, have enough warm clothes cause it’s damn cold all the time, but if you do decide to go this company is solid. Have enough cash for tipping cause apparently at Kili it is more than expected on other hikes, as if you are going solo you might not be in the big group and because of laws you cannot carry a lot of stuff so you’ll have a lot of porters. Approx 20% on top of what you paid for the trip is a recommendation so have that in mind.

The perfect team
5/5

i don’t usually write reviews..but the Almighty Kilimanjaro team were just too special for me to not too.
From the very start of our 7 day lemosho route ascent to the peak of kilimanjaro - myself and my 3 friends felt extremely well looked after and well guided with everything that came our way.

i wouldn’t hesitate going with these guys…

they’ll feed you so much good food & continually put a smile on your face even if you are exhausted!
and most importantly. they’ll walk you at the very steady (pole pole) pace that is so necessary for this climb!

missing the mountain already. but i’m missing the company of the guides and porters at Almighty even more so..

many thanks to them,
Alex

Wonderful people who helped make a dream come true!
5/5

Almighty Kilimanjaro was an excellent company to travel with. They excelled in all areas and totally blew our expectations out the park! The food was absolutely amazing thanks to our brilliant chef! I celebrated a birthday on the mountain and he surprised us with a cake which was absolutely delicious! Our guide was so helpful and kind! Adam always had our best interests at heart and making sure we were always comfortable throughout the expedition. The porters were fantastic and always made sure our luggage was safely transported to the next camp. Everyone in the team always maintained a positive attitude and encouraged us to reach the summit! These people are absolutely incredible and helped make a birthday dream come true! I can’t recommend them enough!!

Amazing, must do trip!
5/5

A true test of self determination with amazing support from the guides, cooks and porters, I couldn’t have done it without them! The team I had were incredibly selfless and just wanted to help you succeed and enjoy yourself the whole time! They held great knowledge of the mountain and local region and their English was incredibly good! I would strongly recommend Almightily Kilimanjaro, especially Joseph (main guide) and his amazing team to anyone willing to have a crack at Mt Kilimanjaro!

Safe and comfortable climb.
5/5

It was a lovely trip with Joseph and the rest of the porters. The weather was nice so the Umbwe route was not as muddy and slippery as it can be. I was the only climber so I could keep my own pace and cut the trip down to 5 days. Joseph was strong and experienced and we enjoyed the trip. The other guys in the team were very nice and service minded. I recommend Almighty Kilimanjaro if you want a safe and pleasant group to climb with.

Really enjoyed this tour to the max! Joseph and Andrew and his crew took really good care of us. The food was amazing, and they really had a lot of knowledge about the area and the culture and history in Tanzania. Definitely recommend this to all who want to reach the summit of Kilimanjaro!

Joseph’s team created the perfect experience, they could not do enough for us and made it magical.
5/5

We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for the most incredible adventure up Mount Kilimanjaro with Joseph, Andrew and their team. Our journey to the summit was an unforgettable experience, thanks to your outstanding team.

From the moment we set foot on the mountain, your team's warmth, friendliness, and constant smiles made us feel not just welcome but also part of a family. Abu, the team chef, deserves special praise for creating the most amazing meals even in the challenging conditions of the mountain. Every bite was a delight and gave us the energy we needed for the ascent.

Nixon, your service and professionalism were exceptional. Your ever-present smile brightened our days, and your attention to detail ensured we had everything we needed. Your care and dedication did not go unnoticed.

Joseph and Andrew, our guides, were the pillars of knowledge and safety throughout the journey. Your expertise in navigating Kilimanjaro and your commitment to ensuring our safety were truly remarkable. We appreciated how you adjusted the pace to accommodate the group's well-being, making the ascent more manageable for everyone.

This experience will forever be etched in our hearts, and it's all thanks to Joseph and his incredible team. We are eagerly looking forward to booking another adventure with you in the near future. We cannot recommend your services enough – it's a must-book for anyone seeking a Kilimanjaro expedition.

Thank you for making our Kilimanjaro dream a reality.

Warmest regards,
Ellie and Ben

We had a fantastic Safari Adventure
5/5

We went to 4 parks and had many fantastic animal encounters. We loved the camps in Serengeti and on the Ngorongoro Crater rim. Our guides and the vehicles were great. It exceeded all our expectations. George and Modi made sure the 9 of us had incredible views of the animals. this trip exceeded our expectations. I was hoping to see a lion, and we saw 20-30.

Everything was organised very good. Loved the team who took us to the top of the Kilimanjaro!
5/5

Our team leaded by Joseph and Andrew was amazing. Everybody was happy, singing and laughing. We got to the top together. The walk itself, Machame route 6 days, was fur us (living in Switserland and hiking experience) very doable. At one point we got a little altitude sick but Joseph was there for us and guided us through. Also the food was amazing. Still mind blown about what People can actually cook on a mountain. Soup, eggs, pancakes, toast, potatoes, chicken, beef, popcorn, rice, Spagetti. It was all there, Credits for that.

Thanks Joseph, Andrew and your crew. You did an amazing job and everybody who get to climb the Kilimanjaro with you will be as lucky as i am!
