8 Days Mount Kilimanjaro Climbing Lemosho Route
Description
The Lemosho Route commences on the western side of Kilimanjaro, providing breathtaking views of Mt Meru and Kenya’s Amboseli National Park plains.

On the third day, the route converges with the Machame Route, and a long, yet gratifying, journey lies ahead until you reach the summit. This 8-day trek includes an additional day, allowing you to acclimatize more effectively, thereby increasing your chances of reaching the peak.

Our 8-day Lemosho Route Climb was a wonderful opportunity to climb Mount Kilimanjaro with our companions from India and family members from the United States of America. The Sales Team supports a high level of responsiveness to customers' needs during the booking process. We felt an immediate connection with the Aardvark Expeditions Limited because of the quick response times and open and honest communication etc. Our head guide, Fred and assistant guide Bariki were excellent leaders who provided good guidance and concern for all climbers throughout the entire Kilimanjaro Trek. They kept climbers safe, happy and comfortable throughout each stage of the trek. We reached the summit of Kilimanjaro with a sense of accomplishment, confidence and pride. For us, this climb was about the journey and the people who helped us along the way to reach the summit. We highly recommend this team to anyone looking to climb Kilimanjaro.
Dear Nomad54355954254, Thank you so much for giving us the honor to organize your climb to Mount Kilimanjaro via Lemosho Route. It is our great pleasure to learn that you enjoyed the trip and the quality of our customer service at Aardvark Expeditions Limited. You are warmly to visit Tanzania again if and when it is convenient to you.
Our group consisted of 14 climbers (some of us flew from the US) and others from India. We completed an 8-day Kilimanjaro climb via the Lemosho Route on November 15, 2025. The views were amazing, but the Aardvark Expeditions team was what made it so special. Ewald, Gabriel, and Fred were our mountain guides from the Aardvark Expeditions and did a great job of mixing their professionalism with a personal touch while helping us get to the summit (Uhuru Peak 5,895masl). They made sure to pace us correctly, especially for the long acclimatisation days. Our two cooks, Paul and Ephraim, did an excellent job of giving us "home-cooked meals" on the cold nights at the Shira and Barafu Camps. I truly recommend Aardvark Expeditions for a memorable Kilimanjaro climbing experience.
Dear Shrabonip508, It was indeed both an honor to organize a trip and to play host during your last trip to Tanzania for the Kilimanjaro Climbing expedition via Lemosho Route. We thank you for your custom and we hope to receive many recommendations from you and we can assure you that, Aardvark Expeditions Limited team shall never let you down. Our client's satisfaction is always our number one operational priority.
