  We are 2 friends from France and we did this 7 day trek with Paul and his team. We were very well received upon arrival at the airport. Paul and his assistant guide Fredy taught us a lot about the history of the mountain and the flora and fauna. The whole team took great care of us and Paul was attentive to our symptoms throughout the stay. The meals were delicious and hearty! We will keep memorable memories of this ascent. I recommend 100%.

• Perhaps the best crew on the mountain.

  I am 69 years old, my wife of 68 and our two daughters aged 34 and 36 climbed Kilimanjaro with Paul in February of 2025. How can I explain to someone who has never experienced this level of challenge how important it is to get a guide who knows what they are doing. Far less than half the people who try to climb Kilimanjaro succeed. The majority of those who try are fit young males. Why do they fail? The reasons are multifaceted. But, a big part is dependent upon who you choose as your guide. Paul, Issa and their crew are nothing short of exceptional. The biggest difference in this company, is that it is owned and operated by the head guide (Paul) who started more than 20 years ago as a porter, worked his way up to being the chef and then finally completed his guiding license and became the owner operator of this great company. That history shows every day you are on the mountain. The respect he shows to his porters, chef and workers is obvious. And the respect those workers show in return makes the food and the camp experience one of the best parts of the climb. The fact that he got 2 old farts and two young women up to the Ahuru Peak, speaks for itself. We have had many amazing experiences in our lives. For each one of us, this is right up there with the best. Paul and his crew were a big part of making that happen.

  I just loved the Lemosho route. July 2021 was my second climb of Mount Kilimanjaro. The first time I used the marangu route (Coca Cola route) but for sure the lemosho route has been just spectacular. Great views and challenges (the Baranco wall also known as breakfast wall was my favorite). The guides and the team was just superb. We were told as we go up, we might be loosing appetite, fortunately none of my friends nor spouse had this problem, for sure I will link this to the delicious fresh food that was cooked by our chef. The tents and sleeping bags were clean and nice, the porters were just as efficient in their work and very friendly. If you want a perfect and relaxed climb, then you know who to go to, Paul and his team were there all the time to provide information and tips to successfully conquer the mountain. The whole team of 8 people made it to the top.

  

• One in a lifetime!

  Prepare well to deal with the cold. Do not rely on your phone to take pictures, and push for the best pose and smile 😆 (it won't be natural). Focus on the moment and enjoy the journey!

  Paul Bernad led a small group of me and three other climbers up Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho route. Paul was always responsive to everyone's abilities and led us accordingly. The food was great and we all achieved our goal of making it to the top.
