5 Days Marangu Route Kilimanjaro Climbing
Description
Marangu Route 5 Days – Marangu Route is also known as the “Coca Cola” or “tourist” route. It is the easiest and shortest route to the summit. This is also the only route with the comforts of sleeping huts at every campsite with solar lights and comfortable beds. The huts are communal, and the bunks have a sponge mattress and pillow. This route is usually done in 5 days but can be done in 6 days for better acclimatization. The extra day can be spent resting at Horombo or climbing the small peak of Mawenzi.

We have done a 4-day safari, and the experience has been incredible. From the very first moment, they treated us wonderfully, making us feel very comfortable and well taken care of at all times. The food has been excellent, always varied and very good, exceeding our expectations. Moreover, the entire team has been extremely kind, attentive, and professional, constantly ensuring that we enjoyed the experience to the fullest. Thanks to them, we have been able to live unforgettable days. Without a doubt, we recommend this experience 100% and would repeat it without hesitation. Thank you very much for everything!
My girlfriend and I recently used Mountain warriors for both our Kilimanjaro climb and 5 days of safari and they were absolutely brilliant. The team we had with us when attempting to summit Kilimanjaro were fantastic, in particular our two guides; Sam and Chewy. They helped us every step of the way and were the main reason we summated successfully, nothing was too much for them and their sense of humour/ positive attitude kept us going throughout the hike! The rest of the team were great as well, the porter and chef (Obama) so massive shout out to them all! The organisation of the safari was excellent, we saw all of the big 5 and made memories we won’t forget. A special mention to our organiser Gasto, who put everything together for us and even bought us some lunch on our last day at the airport as we had had to skip our lunch to make a flight to Zanzibar! We would definitely recommend using Mountain Warriors and would use them again!
Easily the most challenging and rewarding thing I've ever done and probably ever will do. From start to finish the team supported us with everything from carrying our heavy luggage up the mountain and preparing all our meals to patting our hands and feet to promote good circulation and singing to us on summit night. The attention to detail concerning our health was excellent and gave me the confidence to (in spite of my asthma) push my limits and succeed on this hike. We made life-long friends, and will return to beautiful Tanzania one day soon. Would absolutely recommend this trip (it was a pre-weddig honeymoon for my husband and I and we wouldn't change our choice of activity/destination) and your chances are far greater with this team around you!!
A trip of a lifetime! Gasto and his crew were wonderful and ensured our safety and summit to Kilimanjaro. We learned about his culture and the surrounding areas of Kilimanjaro. Each meal was prepared fresh and served hot. Our group did not worry for anything, as all our needs were met and tended to each day. Gasto explained the flora and fauna as we trekked up the mountain - demonstrating their cultural respect of the land and mountain. The huts were very comfortable, the beds cozy, and they even had pillows! Be prepared to experience some of the most breathtaking views, beautiful people, and summiting the highest peak in Africa - Kilimanjaro. It's wicked cold - bring warm jackets! Highly recommend Gasto and his crew - would go back again and again!
Incredible experience! - Gasto and his team are simply amazing. Having climbed Kili 250 times, Gasto is a Kili expert and will ensure that you are well looked after on the mountain, and that you have a good laugh whilst conquering Africa's highest peak. Great food and great company for a very reasonable price. Highly recommend!
