• An incredible experience with truly fantastic people!

  My husband and I booked a 7 day private Marangu Route trek with Tranquil Kilimanjaro, and it was truly an amazing experience from start to finish! From the very beginning, Charles was always available to answer our questions and helped us organize the trip smoothly. The package we booked, included all the admissions fees and food. June is not so crowded so we really enjoyed it. Once we arrived at Kilimanjaro, we met our wonderful team of 10 people. Regean and Hamisi, our two guides, were absolutely amazing; true professionals, always smiling, supportive, and attentive every step of the way. We felt completely safe with them at all times. Jon, our chef, prepared incredible meals for us; healthy, delicious, and exactly what we needed to keep our energy up during the trek. Hussain, our waiter and porter, was also fantastic; he truly felt like our right hand every day and evening. And of course, we could not forget our six amazing porters: Elias, Ibrahim, Ali, Joseph, Salim, and Abdul. We honestly could not have done it without their hard work, kindness, and support. We definitely recommend Tranquil Kilimanjaro, and especially this incredible team. Thank you for making our Kilimanjaro experience so special!

  We did a last minute booking since we were only in Moshi for a short time. The organization of the trip was fast and smooth. We were lucky to see the peak of Kilimanjaro on our way to Marangu Gate and after we had the pleasure to experience the dayhike to Mandara Hut with our guide Eliasa. We managed to get to Mandara Hut after 2,5 h and had lunch there. We even had more time to go to the nearby crater before ascending back down. Thanks again to Charles for the organization, David for driving us and Eliasa for the nice tour.

  What a great adventure! Highly recommendable to organize your Kilimanjaro Trip with Tranquil. Superb organization, great guides (Hamis and Elias), fantastic food. Marangu Route is perfect for keen and fit hikers who can adapt to quick ascents. Expect some of the most strenuous days of your live and the very best sunrise of your live on the roof of Africa.

  Wonderful day hike to Mandara Hut base camp with Hamis and Elias. They were wonderful.... kind, interesting, local knowledge, reliable, very good with my 13 year old daughter and generally assisted us all the way up. I can highly recommend them. They were wonderful and a credit to Tranquil Kilimanjaro.

  We did a day hike with 2 guides and our family of 4. It was a very long day since we were picked up very early from Arusha. The road to Moshi was very bumpy so this made it tough to sleep on the way. However once we finally arrived we started our hike and had the clearest views of the peak. We were assigned 2 guides that took very good care of us and made sure we were safe at all times. The hike was long with only a few places that were a bit tough. It was an excellent experience and a good way to get a feel for the full trek up the mountain.

  

  

  

• Wonderful 8-day Northern Route Kilimanjaro Trek!

  Our family just finished our climb to the top of Kilimanjaro with Tranquil today (June 19 2025). We had the time of our lives. Our guides (HB and Janeth) were fantastic. They took excellent care of us and went at the pace that worked best for our family (age range 40 - 69). The food (prepared by Chef Shaban) was wonderful and our team of porters (Veronica, Daniel, Donald, Ally, Samson, Salim M., Salim I., Ibra, Elias, Godlisten, Pinniel, Amiri, Ruben, Jonas, and Erick/Manu:) were fantastic! Everyone at Tranquil had a welcoming, wonderfully friendly personality and treated us with love and respect. By the end of our 8-day journey they felt like family. We would highly recommend this organization. In addition to the accolades mentioned already, Tranquil was very reasonably priced in comparison to the other companies - they also took care of all of our transportation. We have a safari that starts tomorrow that is also arranged through Tranquil. I'm sure it will also be incredible. We highly recommend Charles and his Tranquil Team!

  

  

  

  

  

• Tranquil – The Perfect Partner for Your Kilimanjaro Adventure

  Background We were a group of three (German/Austrian) men looking for a 6-7 day Lemosho route trek up Kilimanjaro. Charles and his company, Tranquil, were highly recommended by a friend who had already climbed with them. Despite booking on short notice—finalizing details just a week before arrival—everything was handled smoothly. We opted for the 7-day Lemosho route with an additional hotel night before and after the hike. Overall Experience Exceptional. From start to finish, the professionalism, organization, and personal touch exceeded our expectations. Arrival & Hotel Charles personally picked us up from the airport. Since we had different flight arrivals, he waited for hours to ensure we could all travel together, minimizing our time on the road. This level of dedication was a sign of the outstanding service we would experience throughout the trip. Booking Process We booked everything remotely from Germany via WhatsApp and phone calls. Charles was always quick to respond, providing clear and detailed information, making the process simple and stress-free. Organization & Logistics We were stunned by how hands-on Charles was. He was personally present to pick us up, welcome us at the hotel, and ensure everything was running smoothly. This level of involvement gave us great confidence in the trip. The Kilimanjaro Team Our team consisted of two experienced guides, one cook, and ten porters. Every single member was highly motivated and dedicated to making our Kilimanjaro experience unforgettable. The support, expertise, and camaraderie of the team played a huge role in our success. Food on Kilimanjaro We had special dietary requests (one vegetarian, one lactose-intolerant), and the chef catered to them perfectly. The food was beyond impressive—omelets, sausages, curries, soups, fresh fruits, pizza, French fries, pasta... The variety and quality were unbelievable, especially considering the altitude! We always had unlimited water, tea, coffee, and hot chocolate. On longer hikes, we received snacks like juice, boiled eggs, bananas, muffins, and cookies. Even now, I can’t understand how the chef managed to prepare such meals in the mountains! Flexibility on the Trek As experienced mountaineers, we requested some flexibility—and we got it. The guides observed our pace and skills, allowing us to overtake slower groups when safe, even in more technical sections. On summit day, we felt strong, so we changed the plan last-minute and summited during the day instead of at night, avoiding the usual crowds. After our successful summit, we decided to finish the trek in six days instead of seven, which was no problem for Tranquil. This adaptability made the trip even better! Last-Minute Safari Since we returned one day early, we asked Charles about safari options and an extra hotel night. As always, he personally showed up with various well-planned options, ensuring we got an amazing deal. Value for Money We were blown away by the professionalism, friendliness, food quality, and overall experience. Considering that over $1,000 of the price goes directly to national park fees, we felt we got excellent value for money. Useful Tips Some of us brought inflatable sleeping pads, and I would bring one next time. Not essential, but it adds extra comfort! Final Thoughts We were not looking for the cheapest provider (even so they offered a great price), but rather a trustworthy, reliable company that delivers high quality. Tranquil exceeded all expectations—a perfect choice for anyone looking to climb Kilimanjaro with confidence. Highly recommended!

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Only good things!

  * This is a late review I was doing solo trip to Tanzania in September '24 and for sure wanted to have a "sneak peek" of Kilimanjaro. I was looking for a company to do 1day-hike and "Tranquil Kilimanjaro" was the one I chose. They made my experience incredible!! Kaji, the owner of the company, is a super chilled guy and really nice, always ready to help. We were getting all the details easy on Whatsapp and the day started as planed. I did my day hike alone with guide Hamisi through Marangu Route. It was super fun and Hamisi has a lot of knowledge about Kilimanjaro, telling me about all of his experiences. The only thing I regret is not climbing all the way up. For sure I'm going to come back and do it with Tranquil! If you are lost in choosing the company between so many (I was), I just can recommend this one.

  We have many thanks for Elias, Hamisi, Johnny, Hossein, Salem, Josef, Abdul, Eric, Sampson, Hossein for a brilliant trek. We did the 7 day Lemosho route as a group of 2 with the remainder of the Tranquil Kilimanjaro group. We were lucky to enjoy great food, very comfy tents, even a portaloo was brought. The hike itself was phenomenal with behind scenery of alpine dessert, rainforest and snow/glaciers on summit day. Our guides were very considerate and great conversationalists.
