Day 1
Embark on a breathtaking journey to the Shira Plateau, one of Mount Kilimanjaro’s most scenic and accessible high-altitude regions. This full-day tour with Swahili Safari Escape begins with a scenic drive from Arusha or Moshi through lush coffee farms and mountain villages to Londorossi Gate, the western entrance of Kilimanjaro National Park.
After registration, enjoy a guided hike across the plateau at about 3,500 meters, wandering open moorlands with giant lobelias and everlasting flowers, while spotting wildlife such as colobus monkeys, bushbucks, and colorful birds. The trail leads to stunning viewpoints of Kibo Peak and the dramatic Shira Cathedral formations.
Ideal for travelers seeking Kilimanjaro’s wilderness without a full climb, this tour combines nature, photography, and cultural immersion. Return in the afternoon with unforgettable memories of Tanzania’s wild highlands, all crafted with care by Swahili Safari Escape.
