The Lemosho Route is one of the most popular and scenic routes for Kilimanjaro Climbing Tours. This route is known for its remote and pristine wilderness areas. The Lemosho Route is longer than other routes, generally taking 7 to 8 days to complete, and offers a gradual ascent. This allows climbers to acclimate to the altitude and reduce the risk of altitude sickness

    I spent two weeks with my colleague on Gifted Afrika Adventures. First we booked a 7-day trekking on Kilimanjaro and then 4 days safari. I would book a tour at Gifted Afrika Adventures again anytime. It was a mega experience. We experienced breathtaking scenery and observed fascinating animals on the safari. We have always been super super looked after by a mega great team. Also that food was super delicious. You must have experienced this adventure yourself! It was great!! I will come back!! I'm just saying Asante sana. ( Thank you)

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can wholeheartedly recommend Gifted African Adventures! From the very first contact to the last day, everything was perfectly organized. I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with them and went on a safari afterwards – it was truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life! The entire team was incredibly professional, caring, and motivating – I would never have reached the summit without them. The service was outstanding in every way: we were supported, encouraged, and looked after like family. A special shout-out to our chef – an absolute Superman! 🦸‍♂️ The food was honestly the best I’ve ever had on any tour. Even at 4,600 m altitude, he managed to serve us fresh vegetables and delicious, perfectly cooked meals – simply unbelievable! 🍲✨ The safari afterwards was equally wonderful: beautiful lodges, breathtaking wildlife, and seamless organization. You can truly feel that the whole team works with passion, love, and real teamwork – without them, this incredible level of service wouldn’t have been possible. Thank you, Gifted African Adventures, for an unforgettable adventure! 🌍💛 I’d book with you again in a heartbeat!

    Very perfect and professional team! We climbed Kilimanjaro by lemosho and everything was well organised before, during and after the climb, thanks to everyone! We requested a tour of Arusha National Park on our arrival in Arusha and gifted was very quick to organise everything. In addition, there was a really great celebration arranged after the end of the climb! It's important to note that at the beginning of the trip we had to change our original 8 days 7 nights climbing to 7 days 6 nights due to a late flight due to a plane malfunction, but gifted was very quick to respond and organise everything! We were sad that our holiday was only 10 days this time, but next time gifted will still undoubtedly be our first choice in Tanzania!

    Very perfect and professional team! We climbed Kilimanjaro from Lemosho and everything was well organized before, during and after the climb, thanks to everyone! We tentatively hoped to visit Arusha National Park upon arrival and gifted everything very quickly. Plus, a great celebration is arranged after the climb! It's worth mentioning that at the beginning of the trip, the flight was delayed due to a plane failure and we had to change the climb from 8 days 7 nights to 7 days 6 nights, but gifted responded quickly and arranged everything! Unfortunately our holiday is only 10 days this time, but the next gifted will still undoubtedly be our first choice in Tanzania!
