8 Days 7 Nights Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route





Description
The Lemosho route is considered the most scenic trail on Kilimanjaro, granting panoramic vistas on various sides of the mountain. As one of the newer routes, Lemosho is a superb choice for your climb. It is our preferred route due to its ideal balance of low crowds, beautiful scenery and a high summit success rate. Topi Adventure specializes in guiding on the Lemosho route. Most of our clients climb Kilimanjaro using this route and they consistently report that they loved it. Thus, Lemosho is highly recommended. The route approaches Mount Kilimanjaro from the west, beginning with a long drive from Moshi to Londorossi Gate. From there, the first two days are spent trekking through the rain forest to Shira Ridge. The Lemosho route crosses the entire Shira Plateau from west to east in a pleasant, relatively flat hike. Crowds are low until the route joins the Machame route near Lava Tower.

Fantastic experience with Emanuel and his crew, highly recommend. Emanuel leads a team that is warm, professional and proficient. His own expertise and knowledge of the mountain highly increases your odds of submitting against all odds.
I cannot recommend Topi Adventure and Emanuel highly enough! After being referred by a coworker who had an incredible experience, our group of 7 chose Topi Adventure for our Kilimanjaro climb, and it exceeded every expectation. The Summit Success We completed the 8-day, 7-night Lemosho Route, and every single person in our group successfully summited! This speaks volumes about Emanuel and his team's expertise. The midnight summit push was perfectly paced - we reached Uhuru Peak around 8 AM, with the guides ensuring no one was left behind. When a couple of our group members struggled with altitude, the guides provided exceptional support, helping them push through to achieve their dream of reaching the summit. Exceptional Planning & Personalized Service From the very beginning, Emanuel was incredibly patient during our planning process, handling all my questions, changes, and back-and-forth communications with professionalism and a smile. As both the owner and one of our three guides, Emanuel's hands-on approach made the entire experience feel truly personalized rather than just another tour group. Dietary Needs Handled Flawlessly Our group had specific dietary requirements - mostly vegetarians and one person with a severe dairy allergy. Topi Adventure managed these needs perfectly without any issues. The breakfast omelets were particularly excellent, and the overall food quality was outstanding throughout all three daily meals. First-Class Equipment & Accommodations The tents and equipment provided were absolutely first-class. We felt safe, comfortable, and well-equipped throughout the entire journey. The attention to detail in ensuring our comfort was evident every single day. Safari Excellence Too While I only did the climb, several in our group also booked the safari portion. They returned absolutely thrilled with the experience - praising the skilled drivers, top-tier accommodations, and an unforgettable balloon ride. Topi Adventure clearly excels at both their climbing and safari operations. Incredible Value Compared to the larger operators we researched, Topi Adventure offered significantly better value while delivering superior service. You get the personal attention of a local, family-run business without compromising on quality or safety. Final Thoughts What sets Topi Adventure apart is their genuine care for each client's success and comfort. This isn't just a business transaction - Emanuel and his entire team are invested in making your Kilimanjaro dream come true. The experience felt completely personalized and exceeded our expectations in every way. Bottom line: If you're planning to climb Kilimanjaro, choose Topi Adventure. You won't regret it! Highly recommended for: Kilimanjaro climbs, Tanzania safaris, groups with dietary restrictions, anyone wanting personalized service and guaranteed summit success. Thank you Emanuel and the entire Topi Adventure team for an unforgettable experience!
Emanuel and his team were amazing from start to finish. He took the time to help us plan the route and walk us through all the preparations. On the mountain, the Topi guides and porters were experienced, friendly, and a joy to climb with. I can't speak more highly of this team and everyone considering climbing Kilimanjaro should work with Topi Adventures.

Look no further - you have found your next adventure. Kilimanjaro is an incredible, but challenging endeavor. In order to get the most out of it, you're going to need the right team. I could give no higher recommendation than to consider Topi for your choice. Emmanuel and his team were incredibly organized and made sure that we were not only safe, but well taken care of the whole way. I was blown away by the attention and care each and every one of the thirty (!!) crew members took for our group of six climbers. Topi takes every detail into account so that you can focus on experiencing everything the mountain has to offer, which is indescribable.

Topi Adventure is the best tour operator one can rely upon to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. It's owner Emanuel is very polite, humble, well mannered and supportive person. All his crew members are very much experienced and well trained. They will leave no stone unturned to provide you with the best possible facilities and food up on the mountain. Each and every minute thing is very well taken care of by them and additionally, they also click beautiful pictures of you☺️. The guide, cook, porters, helpers everyone are well cultured and disciplined guys. You can blindly trust them on the mountain and they will not let you down. I personally liked the cook, Emanuel provided me with. Each and every meal prepared by him was absolutely mouthwatering and finger licking, which in return provided me with extra strength for my climb. Also, before and after the climb, one will be provided with the best hotel stay there is in Moshi, that too for no extra charges ;) Hence I strongly recommended everyone who is reading this post to blindly trust this review and plan your trip with Topi Adventure. Further, for any other questions or clarifications you can contact me on srikant.seerapu896@gmail.com. Just in case you need any additional information for your climb.
Were very well taken care of on the tour everything best only recommended have subsequently undertaken a safari Emanuel and his team are really top
We decided to go, got medical clearance, picked a route: Lemosho 8 day ... a good choice for maximizing altitude adjustment in the time we had. (We took diamox too - works but makes you pee lots!) To pick a company, we checked guide reviews and both found rave reviews for Emmanuel - Chief Guide and owner at Topi Adventures. So we went with Topi, who were the tops! They sent us all the info we needed, organized an add on trip in advance for us to Ngorongoro Crater, then met us at the pleasant Parkview hotel in Moshi they had booked for us to go through all our gear and make sure we had everything, and even adjusted their own prep to ensure gluten free food options and other needs we had. They teamed us with a very experienced lead guide Nelson and Ndessario - a senior guide who had trained many of the guides on the mountain and set an excellent 'pole pole' pace - a great choice. We also opted for the portable toilet - recommended!. Food all the way up was fabulous. Their care and attention to our health and to the pace that we could manage was spot on, and they took us all the way to the summit and safely down again. Nelson's transparent handling of our tips for the team members was also excellent, as was Ellie's support throughout. Their team were so good we wrote them all a song and we sang each other songs at the exit gate! BTW for the afternoon after coming down - book a massage and pedicure at Lala Salama Spa - totally worth it!
We had the most wonderfull time of our life with thuis company. Our luggage didnt’t arrive at the AirPort. Elly took care of us: borrowing equipment and help us with gering our luggage back. The trip on the mountain was magnificent: good dood and they reallifesoap took good care of our health during the trip. After that we went on a safari trip and the service again was exceptional. These people vare about their guests. When we left they came to be site we were on the right bus. Elly and his company: there is no better firm that Will make your Tanzania experience unforgetable! Maken you feel at home
