  Reaching the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro on the 7-day Lemosho route with Burigi Chato Safaris was a deep and moving journey that balanced a tough physical grind with incredible support. From the start, the bond within the group was strong, turning a pack of strangers into a tight team led by a crew that felt like family.i would like to thank Burigi chato safaris for making trek achiavable

• 7 Days on Lemosho with Burigi Chato Safaris – The perfect schedule!

  I just got back from the 7-day Lemosho trek and man, what an experience. If you are worried about the altitude, this 7-day schedule is the only way to go. Burigi Chato Safaris handled the logistics so perfectly that it felt like every day was planned exactly right for our bodies to adjust. Day 1 & 2: The Start & Shira Plateau We started at Londorossi Gate and the first day was just a nice walk through the rainforest to Big Tree Camp. But Day 2 was when it got real—we climbed up onto the Shira Plateau. It’s a long day but Burigi Chato had camp set up perfectly with hot tea waiting. The views of Kibo peak from the plateau are just insane, I couldn't stop taking photos. Day 3: Lava Tower (The test!) This was a huge day. We hiked up to Lava Tower at 4,600m. I’m not gonna lie, I felt the altitude here and had a bit of a headache, but the guides were so supportive. We had lunch there and then descended to Barranco Camp. This "climb high, sleep low" schedule is pure genius—it’s why I felt so much better the next day. Day 4: The Barranco Wall I was so nervous for the Wall, but it ended up being my favorite part! It’s a bit of a scramble but the Burigi guides literally show you where to put your feet. We stayed at Karanga Camp after, and the sunset above the clouds was the best thing I've ever seen. Day 5: Heading to Base Camp A shorter hike to Barafu Camp (Base Camp). It’s very rocky and windy here, but it gave us the afternoon to just rest, eat, and try to sleep before the midnight push. The chefs from Burigi Chato somehow made a massive hot meal even in that wind—total legends. Day 6: The Summit!! The hardest night of my life. We left at midnight in the freezing cold. It’s just "pole pole" for hours in the dark. But hitting Stella Point at sunrise and then walking to Uhuru Peak... wow. I actually cried. I never could have done it without the Burigi guides literally cheering me on every step. We then descended all the way to Mweka Camp. My legs were like jelly but I felt like a hero. Day 7: The Finish Line A nice walk down through the forest to the gate. We had a big celebration with the whole Burigi Chato crew, singing and dancing. It was so emotional saying goodbye to the porters who worked so hard for us. If you want to actually enjoy your climb and reach the top, do the 7-day Lemosho. And honestly, book with Burigi Chato Safaris. Their schedule, their food, and their amazing energy made this the best trip of my life. Best 7 days ever!

  Just finished the 7 day Lemosho route with Burigi Chato Safaris and it was a top tier experience. We had a group of 10 people and the itinerary was spot on for acclimatization. The route starts in the beautiful rainforest and then opens up into the shira plateau which has some of the best views on the mountain. Doing it in 7 days was the right call because it gave us plenty of time to get used to the air before the summit push. Climbing the barranco wall was a huge highlight for our group too. The guides were very professional and the food was great every single day. If your looking to do kilimanjaro, this is the route and the company to go with. Everything was handled perfectly from start to finish. Thanks again team!

• 7 Days 6 Nights Lemosho Route Group Climb

  I joined a group climb on Mount Kilimanjaro using the Lemosho Route (7 Days / 6 Nights) with Burigi Chato Safaris and it was really a great experience. Everything was well organized from the start, even though we were a group with different fitness levels. The guides were friendly and very supportive, always checking on us and making sure we move together. Food was good and enough for everyone, which I honestly didn’t expect on the mountain. The porters worked very hard and you can see they know what they’re doing. Summit night was tough, not easy at all, but the guides kept pushing us and most of the group made it to the top, which felt amazing. Overall, I’m very happy I chose Burigi Chato Safaris and would recommend them for anyone joining a group Kilimanjaro climb.

• An Unforgettable 7-Day Lemosho Journey to the Roof of Africa!

  I am still processing the fact that I actually stood at Uhuru Peak, and after months of training and nerves, choosing the 7-day Lemosho route was easily the best decision I could have made. If you are coming from sea level like I was, do not shortcut this experience—the extra 7 day for acclimatization is the main reason I actually reached the summit. The Lemosho route scenery was absolutely stunning; the first two days through the rainforest felt like walking through a documentary, and starting from the west meant we had the trail largely to ourselves before it merged with the busier routes. The "climb high, sleep low" strategy at Lava Tower really worked for me; I had a slight headache at 4,600m, but by the time we descended to Barranco Camp to sleep, I felt brand new. I cannot say enough about the incredible crew, from Burigi Chato Safaris team whose energy was infectious; every afternoon we were greeted with big smiles and bowls of hot washing water, and I’m still shocked at how they managed to cook three-course meals and fresh bread at 4,000 meters. Summit night was the hardest thing I’ve ever done—leaving camp at midnight in the freezing dark is a total mental battle—but the guides literally sang us up the mountain to keep our rhythm. Reaching the peak just as the sun hit the glaciers was a spiritual experience that I’ll never forget. My advice is to definitely take the 7th day, invest in high-quality summit layers for the cold, and truly embrace the "pole pole" pace. My legs are still sore, but my heart is full; if you are on the fence about this trip, just book it—it changes you. Thankyou Burigi Chato Safaris Team atmost the4 dream comes true

  I chose Burigi Chato Safaris for the top Verified Lemosho Route 6-7 days kilimanjaro group joining climb, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions of my trip. Joining a Verified group climb gave me confidence from the start, as everything was clearly organized and communicated before arrival. The Lemosho Route itself was absolutely beautiful and less crowded, which made the climb even more enjoyable. Over 6-7 days the itinerary felt well planned, giving us enough time to adjust while still enjoying every section of the mountain. As a part of a group joining climb, the atmosphere was supportive and friendly, and the guides made sure no one felt left behind. Burigi Chato Safaris stood out for their professionalism. Thanks to their strong team and careful planning, I reached the summit feeling proud and we'll supported. I would confidently recommend Burigi Chato Safaris to anyone looking for reliable, well managed kilimanjaro group climb on the Lemosho Route.
