Spend 7 days | 6 Nights climbing Mount Kilimanjaro via Lemosho Route. The Lemosho Route is an unspoiled, remote, little, and beautiful way up to the Shira Plateau. The route is one of the few where groups may be accompanied on the first day by an armed ranger, as the forests around the Lemosho Glades are inhabited by buffalo, elephants, and other wildlife. The minimum duration for the Lemosho Route is 6 days, however, we strongly recommend hiking the route in 7 days. The additional 7th day will give your body more time to acclimatize, reducing the effects of altitude sickness and giving you more time to rest before attempting the summit then escape to Zanzibar Island and explore long stretches of virgin powdery white sand beaches. This itinerary also allows you to spend 5 Days | 4 Nights Located on the sea-front of ancient Stone Town, where you will have the chance to discover the best activities in Zanzibar Island including the Zanzibar Spice Tour, Stone Town City Tour, Prison Island Boat Trip, and the Safari Blue Sea Adventure. You can start on any date you request. We can also help to arrange flights and speed boats in and out of Zanzibar.
