Hiking Kilimanjaro with Tanzania Smile Adventure has been amazing! We did the 7-day trek on the Lemosho route, as well as the day trip to Materuni waterfalls. The in office team was professional during the pre-departure preparation. Basil answered our inquiries promptly, which provided us with reassurance. The trekking team was simply outstanding. At all times, they prioritized our safety. Our guide Rafael was knowledgeable, experienced, and went out of his way to make this journey as comfortable as possible. A special appreciation to our cook Shak and our waiter Stefano for the delicious meals, as well as Alan our porter who carried a portable toilet for us. And all the porters have left a long lasting impression for their hard work. Thank you for having shared this once in a life time experience with us on the mountain! Finally, the team is open to feedback. They are working on adding a female to the mountain team. This addition would allow to address unique challenges faced by women during the trek.
