5 Day Kilimanjaro Climbing Rongai Route
Description
The Rongai Route is the route of Kilimanjaro that begins from the north side, a route where few climbers are seen along the way. This route affords the opportunity to witness up close the Mawenzi Volcano (the second highest peak of Kilimanjaro) and the magnificent saddle between Mawenzi and Kibo Peak. However it requires a long drive to the park because of passing through the Marangu gate in order to obtain a permit. The route feels relatively lonely as you cross unspoiled wilderness with little crowds to bother you. Your trek begins near the Kenya border, and you will summit via Marangu route and Gilimans point. Descending will take place on the Marangu route. We offer 2 options for the Rongai route covering 5/6/7-day treks, with the 7-day trek being highly recommended for acclimatization.

Incredible experience thanks to Miriam and Idi, two essentials for making the trip as good as possible. Very close attention, attentive to every need. Four unbeatable days on the safari in Tanzania, observing each of the animals.
Idi and Miriam are really great. T'he helped us with everything we needed and always with a smile. I recommend It so much!!!
This tour company was great but what made it stand apart was our guide Mali and chef Miriam. Mali was an excellent driver, extremely knowledgeable about wildlife, environment, and culture AND his expertise was key in finding the animals. He is very knowledgeable about Masai as well. Only advice i have is that sightings are not guaranteed because this is nature but trust Mali and be patient! Oh and be quiet, this is not a rowdy tourist scene. If your just here to check a box , go to the zoo. Miriam was so kind and accommodating. She ensured we were on schedule and also shared a bit about local life. She is training to be a female guide which is rare. I also lost my glasses and miriam got them for me! If you choose mountain warriors, request these two. Also remember they have no control of the weather so don't penalize them while tipping. Enjoy!
We did a 5-day tour and it was an amazing experience. The tour guides from Mountain Warriors Tours and Safaris made our trip extra special. The drivers were very knowledgeable, and we learned so much about the wildlife in Serengeti from them. Thank you to Mountain Warriors Tours and Safaris for making our safari a truly memorable one.

I was alone on a strange continent, happy to meet the travel agent, arranged my landing hotel and pick-up service, and took a wonderful and wonderful trip to the Serengeti Prairie Grounds, where I saw the scenes I had seen on TV since I was a child. It's a long way away, but nature's shock made up for all the fatigue, and this travel agency is trustworthy.
Everything was perfect, top trip on the Kilimanjaro and the best Safari. We saw all animal and the 5 big too. Gasto is very reliable person We reccomend this company
