Precious Safaris welcomes you to Tanzania! Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, one of our professional drivers will meet you and then transfer to your hotel in Arusha. Your mountain guide will visit you at the hotel for the briefing regarding your trekking and gear checking.
Accommodation: Green Mountain Hotel
Meet your crew at the hotel and then drive to Marangu gate. Marangu is the headquarters of Kilimanjaro National Park. On arrival at the park gate, your guide will help with all necessary registration formalities before taking your lunch. Soon after permit clearance, start your Kilimanjaro expedition by walking through a rainforest where you can see different bird species and black and white colobus monkeys. After 3 hours of hiking, we will arrive at Mandara Camp to spend our first night on the mountain. We will provide hot water for washing up before heading to the mess for your first dinner on Kilimanjaro. If time and the weather permits, you can take a short walk to Mahundi Crater.

After two more hiking hours, we will reach Uhuru Peak at 5895m. Spend your time at Uhuru Peak enjoying a view and taking photos before descending to the base camp for breakfast and lunch. After lunch, we descend to the lower altitude (Horombo Hut) for dinner and overnight.
