Excellent guides and an unforgettable experience!
5/5

The guides and crew were incredible! We ate so well and were so well taken care of. They kept spirits high even on tough parts of the hike. The price was really good too! We loved summitting with them and I recommend to anyone!

One team, absolutely amazing experience
5/5

William and Jackson, hats off to you both you made this trip and I’ll never forget my amazing experience, when I scattered my fathers ashes at the top in freezing conditions these 2 guys where in high spirit and singing whilst I said goodbye to my father who climbed this mountain 60 years ago. Really emotional journey but we’ll worth it.

Almighty Kilimanjaro, absolutely the best
5/5


My family and I had an amazing experience with Almighty Kilimanjaro We booked a private tour to do the 7 day Lemosho route and it was phenomenal. The Almighty Kilimanjaro staff were so responsive to our inquiries right from the start of our booking and sent detailed information so we would be fully prepared for our trip. We also had a pre-climb inspection as well to ensure we had all the right gear and clothing before starting our climb.

The climb itself was quite an awesome experience! Our guides were very helpful and responsive to all of our needs and really made our experience a memorable one. In addition, the entire support team made up of the chef, camp manager, and porters were absolutely the best!

The Lemosho route was beautiful. The climb itself was very challenging for us but with the support and encouragement of our guides and the porters that supported us we made it to the summit.

We enjoyed delicious hot meals every day and really enjoyed the variety of food options we had. The breakfast crepes were my favourite.

We did add-on the portable toilets option which we think was worth the money as it made camping on the mountain a little more comfortable.

Thank you Almighty Kilimanjaro for making our family trip so memorable!

The review below is the personal opinion of Sara and not that of SafariBookings.
Poor organization
1/5

We are uni students from Japan.
People are nice but the owner is not a trustworthy person.

Guides are amazing and they are responsible to their job. The guide, Emanuel was strong, responsible and always cheered us up. The assistant guide, Shukuru was full of knowledge about nature. The trekking itself was an amazing experience with amazing guides and porters.

However, we paid our hut fee($165 for two of us) through credit card but one of them was cancelled so we tried it again with a different credit card. After that, we found out that the payments were withdrawn double. Thus, we asked the manager to get the refund but he rejected and denied that there is no double withdrawal.
Moreover, he called us THEFT. I don’t understand why he can tell there is not double withdrawal and I am not comfortable with being called “theft”

If you want to do trekking, you should make a payment by cash, and not with this company.

Amazing tour with lemosho route
5/5

Had an amazing experience climbing Kilimanjaro via the 8 day Lemosho route with Almighty Kilimanjaro. Our guide Jackson and the rest of the team were truly amazing and if it wasn't for their guidance, experience and care I don't think we would have all summited together. I felt completely safe in the knowledge that we were being looked after by such an experienced and knowledgeable guide. The food was also exceptional. If you're thinking of climbing Kilimanjaro I recommend Almighty Kilimanjaro and the 8 day Lemosho route.

Absolutely an epic experience!
5/5

Choose Almighty Kilimanjaro was definitely the best option to realize my dream! From the beginning of the service the team was always very helpful and patient with all my doubts and requests. I can only say that professionalism is the word that define the company. The adventure was amazing and the whole team is very prepared and focused on our success on the mountain! I was my birthday and I got surprised by a birthday celebration at the mountain! Magical!! So I recommend this company to everyone!!

Awesome
5/5

Climbing Kilimanjaro was the adventure of a lifetime thanks to Almighty Kilimanjaro.

Our guide, William, was incredible - he was friendly and knowledgeable (with over 750 summits and around 20 years experience) and thus comes highly recommended. Do yourself a favour.

The company itself was transparent, trustworthy and attentive. They treat their staff well, and seem to be a powerful force for good in the community.

The food on the mountain exceeded expectation and the tents and equipment are in decent shape as well.

I would definitely advise; spending a longer time on the mountain for better acclimatization, packing an excess of waterproof items, getting a local sim card (there is decent signal at the majority of camps), and packing a variety of snacks.

Uhuru peak is a reward for a worthy effort. Go for it!

A great experience
5/5

I am really grateful for the communication with Almighty Kilimanjaro and Rasheedy from the get-go as I got all the information I needed about the trip right from the start and this helped me in planning what I needed for each day of the climb. Though there was frustration regarding getting my referral visa, it turned out okay as I did not need to apply as early as the embassy website noted and it turned out that Almighty Kilimanjaro's timing for sending me the documents I needed wasn't late after all. Rasheedy was always responsive when I asked questions and that's appreciated as well.

Now for the actual climb, meeting the team was great and everyone was always extremely friendly (especially since I ended up being the only one for the climb, I definitely felt a ton of attention, which I may not be so used to but everyone was doing their job at the end of the day so I'm grateful for that). Emmanuel was an attentive lead guide who seemed to know his stuff and pointed out interesting facts, flora (not so much fauna out there over this period) and much more. He also made sure we always left early and beat the crowds, which made everything much easier. Joseph, the assistant guide, was always super friendly, constantly smiling and helpful. Evans, the chef, was always enviably calm and also friendly, which I really admired. Always great to watch him swiftly move from cooking one dish to the next. I just feel bad I couldn't eat much as we got higher and I definitely wish I had all that delicious food now that I am back on the ground. Babelu (waiter) was always respectful and always helpful even when I got grouchy when things got harder for me and Daudi, Michael & Bam (porters) were amazing all through, though I couldn't speak to them as much due to the language barrier. Sadly, Michael had to leave a bit early due to problems at home, hope all is well now.

All in all, without this team and their support, I never would have made it to the top especially in the last 3 days when aches and pains starting creeping up from everywhere. Only thing I'd say is maybe for my peace of mind, it might have been good to take my oxygen levels twice a day. I understand that the lead guide was not too worried about me because he knows his stuff and could tell I would be fine based on my symptoms and since I was the only one, he knew more about how I was feeling on a daily basis compared to people in groups; but seeing those levels too may have made this clear to me as well instead of imagining all sorts in my head as we often do when we are faced with new challenges. But all's well that ends well and since I did get checked a number of times during the trip, I am sure if I had just asked for more checks to calm my mind, the team would definitely be fine with that. So it's just a matter of good communication.

I'm really happy I made it to the top with Almighty Kilimanjaro and look forward to my next Safari adventure with them.

Amazing trip with Almighty Kilimanjaro!
5/5

Climbing Kilimanjaro was the adventure of a lifetime thanks to Almighty Kilimanjaro.

Our guide, Tuliza, was incredible - he was friendly and knowledgeable (with over 870 summits and around 20 years experience) and thus comes highly recommended. Do yourself a favor.

Very professional experience
5/5

We are moderately experienced hikers with most of that experience being in the American West so hiking at Kilimanjaro's altitude was a different challenge for us. Our guides had our complete confidence the entire trip. We were very comfortable with the crew personally and professionally. It was important that the entire crew, guides and porters, were friendly and always willing to help. It was clear that the crew cared about our experience. They were very attentive and fun to hike with. We would recommend Almighty Kilimanjaro to others. We were very impressed with the crew and the front office
