A Tanzania tour along the Rongai Route to conquer Africa’s highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro, is a once-in-a-lifetime experience
You certainly don’t have to be a mountaineer to reach the highest peak in Africa but you do need to be physically fit, an experienced walker and accustomed to high altitudes. Your 7-night escorted tour reaches its climax on the last morning, starting at 1am by torchlight to reach the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. At 5, 895 metres, Kili is the tallest free-standing mountain in the world and journeying to the top takes you through verdant forests and alpine desert to a peak of glistening ice and snow.
