  I am impressed with how well the Affordable 6 Days Marangu Route was organized. Coming from a flat landscape, the views from the huts were truly mind-blowing for me. Choosing the Affordable 6 Days Marangu Route allowed us to focus on the goal without worrying about tents. The climbing final stretch was a heavy task but a beautiful success.

  had a blast on the Affordable 6 Days Marangu Route last week. The guides were friendly and always made sure we were doing okay with the altitude. I’d suggest the Affordable 6 Days Marangu Route for anyone who prefers a solid roof over their head at night. The hiking through the moorlands was super pretty.

  I recently finished the Affordable 6 Days Marangu Route and found it quite splendid. The organization was spot on, and sleeping in huts instead of tents made the cold evenings much more bearable. This Affordable 6 Days Marangu Route offers excellent value for money without cutting any corners on safety. The climbing on the final night to the peak was testing but very rewarding

• Unforgettable 6 Days Kilimanjaro Climb via Marangu Route with Burigi Chato Safaris

  I did an affordable 6 Days Kilimanjaro climbing tour with Burigi Chato Safaris using the Marangu Route, and honestly it was an amazing experience. From the very first day, the team made us feel comfortable and well prepared for the Kilimanjaro climb. The guides were friendly, experienced, and always checking on everyone’s health and mood. They really cared about getting us to the top safely. The 6 day schedule worked very well for acclimatization, and sleeping in the huts along the Marangu Route was a big plus, especially after long hiking days. The food was good, warm, and gave us enough energy to keep going. What stood out the most was the strong group vibe—we supported each other, laughed together, and pushed through the hard moments as one team. Reaching the summit after a 6 Days Kilimanjaro climb was emotional and unforgettable. I truly recommend Burigi Chato Safaris to anyone planning a Kilimanjaro climb via the Marangu Route. Affordable, well organized, and full of positive group vibe from start to finish.

  I had an incredible 6-day safari experience with Burigi Chato Safaris, and it honestly exceeded my expectations. From day one, everything was well planned, smooth, and professional. The communication before and during the trip was clear, and I felt well taken care of the entire time. Each day of the itinerary was different and exciting. We visited beautiful parks, saw a wide variety of wildlife, and experienced breathtaking landscapes. The 6-day schedule was perfect — not rushed, but full enough to truly enjoy and understand the safari experience. Our guide was outstanding: very friendly, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. He explained so much about the animals, nature, and local life, and always made sure we were comfortable and in the best spots to see wildlife. We were lucky to see many animals up close, and every game drive felt like a new adventure. The safari vehicle was comfortable, the accommodation was well arranged, and the whole trip felt safe and well managed. What I really appreciated was how personal the service felt — not like a big tourist company, but a team that truly cares about their guests. If you are looking for a well-organized, authentic 6-day safari in Tanzania, I would recommend Burigi Chato Safaris. This trip gave me memories I will never forget, and I would definitely choose them again.

• Bucket list trip - 6 days on Marangu!!

  If your looking for an affordable way to climb Kili, the 6 day Marangu route is honnestly the best way to do it. People call it the "Coca-Cola" route because its suposed to be easy, but let me tell you... its still a huge chalenge! The best part for me was the huts. Im not a big fan of camping in tents, so sleeping in the wooden A-frame huts was a total game changer. You get a bunk bed and a mattress which feels like a 5 star hotel when its freezing cold outside hahaI am so glad I chose the 6 day package instead of the 5 day one. That extra day at Horombo hut for "acclimatizing" is why I actually made it to the top. We hiked up to some cool rocks called Zebra Rocks and then came back down to sleep. I saw a few people on the 5 day trek who looked really sick because they rushed it, so definitely dont skip the extra day!! The scenery is crazy too, you start in a literal jungle with monkeys and end up in a volcanic desert that looks like the moon.The summit night was the hardest thing ive ever done in my life. We woke up at midnight and it was pitch black and freezing. Walking "Pole Pole" (which means slowly) for hours is a mental battle, but reaching Uhuru Peak right as the sun was comeing up was just... wow. I actually cried a little bit lol. The glaciers are so beautiful but you can see they are melting fast.Our guides from Burigi Chato Safris were total legends and made sure we were eating enough even when we didnt feel hungry. The food was basic but good—lots of soup, pastaBucket list trip - 6 days on Marangu!! and tea to keep us warm. Also, make sure you bring enough cash for tips at the end because the porters work so hard carrying all the heavy bags up the mountain. If your thinking about doing it, just book it! with Burigi Chato Safaris It’s tough but reaching the roof of Africa is something I’ll never forget.

  Choosing the 6-day Marangu Route was the best decision I could have made for my first time on Kilimanjaro, and honestly, a huge part of why I’m currently holding a summit certificate is because of the team at Burigi Chato Safaris. I was initially worried that an affordable tour might mean cutting corners, but from the second they picked me up, I felt like I was in the hands of family. There is something so human and grounding about the 6-day itinerary; while other climbers were wrestling with tent zippers in the freezing wind, I was tucked away in the A-frame huts, sharing stories and hot cocoa with my guides. What I truly appreciated about Burigi Chato Safaris was their slow and steady philosophy. They didn't just rush me up the mountain; they genuinely cared about my health and my pace. My lead guide was constantly checking in on my breathing and hydration, always reminding me with a smile, "Pole, pole" (slowly, slowly). That extra day they built into the 6-day itinerary for acclimatization at Horombo Hut was my saving grace. Instead of pushing straight to the high camp, we spent the morning hiking to the striking Zebra Rocks at 4,020m. It felt less like training and more like a scenic walk with friends, but it gave my body the exact boost it needed to handle the thin air the following night. By the time we hit the summit push at midnight, I was exhausted and freezing, but the Burigi Chato crew was incredible—they started singing local mountain songs to keep my spirits up when my legs felt like lead. Reaching Uhuru Peak just as the sun broke over the glaciers was a spiritual moment I’ll never forget, but the real highlight was the celebration at the bottom. The way the porters and guides cheered for us at the Marangu Gate made me realize this wasn't just a job for them; they were genuinely proud to see us succeed. If you want a trek that feels personal, supported, and professional without breaking the bank, you really can’t do better than this team.

• My 6-Day Marangu Group Experience with Burigi Chato Safaris

  I recently completed a 6-day group joining trek on the Marangu Route with Burigi Chato Safaris, and it was an absolutely incredible experience. We had a group of 10 people, which turned out to be the perfect size; we started as strangers and ended as a family, pushing each other through the toughest moments. I am so glad I opted for the 6-day itinerary.That extra acclimatization day at Horombo Hut was the key to our success, allowing 9 out of 10 of us to reach Uhuru Peak feeling strong. The Marangu Route itself is great because you get to sleep in huts rather than tents, which made the cold nights much more manageable. The team at Burigi Chato Safaris was professional and organized from start to finish. Our guides were the real heroes, constantly reminding us to go "Pole Pole" (slowly, slowly) to ensure we didn't burn out before the summit. The food was surprisingly good.The summit night from Kibo Hut was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but the guides were right there with us, offering encouragement every step of the way. If you are looking for an affordable, well-organized, and safe way to climb Kilimanjaro, I would recommend this group tour. It’s a challenging journey, but with this crew, you’re in the best possible hand.

  I joined a budget 6-day group climb as a solo traveler and ended up making friends for life. The marangu route gets rets a reputation for being easy but summit night is no joke.Our led guide and his team from Burigk Chato Safaris were professional, encouraging and kept the group spirit high even when altitude got tough. The budget aspect didn't feelnlike we are missing out; we had warm meals,clean hut beds, and excellent safety briefings averynight. Having thaat 6th day for acxlimatization gave our whole group a much higher success rate. If you re worried about climbing alone join a group like this. Thanks Burigi Chato Safaris to get us to the top.

  "We initially looked at 5 day trek, but the team at Burigi Chato Safaris suggested 6 day hiking for better acclimatization .Best decision ever! That extra day at horombo Hut allowed us to do short hike at zebra Rocks and rest .we felt relatively strong.The porters are real heroes they always arrived at the huts before us with a smile. We joined as two friends but finished as a family of ten. Being in the huts together meant we played cards every night and motivated each other when the altitude headaches started. If you're a social person, this is the best way to do Kili."The group-joining aspect was great; we had a mix of people from Australia, Italy, and the US, and we really bonded in the dining halls. My only tip for future guests: bring a very warm sleeping bag and earplugs for the huts! Burigi Chato’s Safaris was seamless, from the briefing in Moshi to the certificate ceremony at the end."If you are on a budget but want a succesful summit ,Burigi Chato Safaris i best choice for me
