About
The Marangu route is one of the most popular routes to the summit of Kilimanjaro. This could partly be as a result of the fact that the Marangu is the least expensive route, but more so, perhaps the fact that it is possible to do the Marangu route in 5 days, thereby getting to the summit one day earlier compared to the Machame route. This is not always the best way, due to a shorter acclimatisation period.
The Marangu route does however offer you the option of spending an extra acclimatisation day on the mountain. This extends the route into a 6-day trek, greatly increasing your chances of success. Shared hut accommodation on the Marangu route forms one of the main differences, compared to the other routes. It offers you the relative luxury of being able to sleep in huts along the entire route. Mineral water, soft drinks, chocolates and beers are also sold at all the camps on this route.

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- theam8230 contributionsAstonishing!The park was incredible, I was completely blown away by the beauty of the wildlife growing and living there. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience. I would 100% go there again, and it’s a must when visiting Tanzania.Written 7 December 2023
- Timoneymark0 contributionsMount Kilimanjaro 7 days lemosho route.We used Kikafu tour & travel for our climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro in the last of November of 2019. When making reservations for the trip of a lifetime, a year in the planning, one hopes that the outfitter you settle on won't let you down. I have to say that the Kikafu team were outstanding. Our guides were the best. They were focused on our safety first as well as our success. I would have to say that without their focus and professionalism, some of our team may not have made the summit. The hotel in Moshi was clean, comfortable, safe and the food was good. Kikafu Tour & Travel gets my highest recommendation! They enabled the most amazing trip of a lifetime!Written 21 December 2019
