Amazing
5/5

Our guides were the true heroes of this adventure. Their extensive knowledge of the mountain's diverse ecosystems made the trek educational as well as exhilarating. They were always available to lend a helping hand and ensure that every member of our group was coping well with the altitude and the physical demands of the climb.

Best Tour Guide We Ever Had
5/5

William was so thoughtful, he provided us all the essentials (like hiking stick, water bottle, lunch/snack, etc), he also carried all stuff by himself, leaving us climbing with ease. He always waited for the last of our group before any branching route or difficult sections. We also like his knowledge on all the birds and plants/trees on the route, we learned so much from him.

A breathtaking trip
5/5

An amazing experience with adorable people who always smile and take care of your health but also of your fears to go to the summit. With William, it’s impossible to not reach the top of Kilimanjaro.
For the safari, Ngongoro is fr the most beautiful panoramic view I have seen in my whole life. We’ve seen several lions !

Amazing Kilimanjaro Experience
5/5

We had an amazing experience on our Kilimanjaro hike. William and Rama took great care of us and made this trip really special. They are both really experieced guides and have all the know how that you will need on the mountain. Usually they made us leave quite early in the morning, therefore we mostly arrived at the camp before the rain and also had the mountain to ourself since most bigger groups were starting later. They will know your speed and adapt to it.
Food was always delicious and vegan was not a problem for our cook Hussein who always cooked amazing food. Equipment was good, even tough there has been quite a lot of rain throughout the day the tent was always waterproof and the sleepingbags were warm enough. The whole team was simply amazing, also a big shout out to our lovely waiter Hamiz.

Our 7-Day Journey on Machame Route was simply perfect. The Scenery is amazing and changes everyday. Also 7 Days just gave us the perfect amount of time for aclimatisation.
We can definitally recomend William and Rama and the whole team and would always book with them again. Thank you so much! Who knows maybe we will be back one day!

The tour was perfect from the beginning to the end. A very nice guide who brought me to the summit. I would do it at any time again.

Excellent!!
5/5

William and his team are very good. I went up Mt. Kilimanjaro with them. They took care of us, especially me when I was having difficulties on the 4th day. They encouraged and motivated me, this was so comforting and gave me courage to carry on. I had an amazing time. We started climbing on my birthday and once we were down Williams' team gave me a surprise birthday party, which was such an awesome gesture.. I would highly recommend them.

Incredible Kili experience and unforgettable safari!
5/5

We visited Tanzania in september 2023 : first we climbed the Kilimanjaro with the guide and organizer William Eliamini and that was really exceptional. His staff was more than concerned by our wellbeing, we ate really well, everyone was helpful and that meant a lot for us to reach the top! We took the Lemosho route because that was the route who would give us, we're both 70, the best chance to reach the top as it takes more days and adaptation to the height is easier. After this incredible experience, William organised for us the best safari ever with the guide Timothy Elias, 4 days-3 nights in tents and rooms : we visited Tanranguire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. The guide gave us so many explanations about wildlife and we were lucky to see the Big Five! We had a safari car with 7 from 3 different nationalities and the ambiance was so good during the days and evenings! If we would do it again, we would not hesitate a single moment and ask again William and Timothy!

To the top !
5/5

We had such a intense and beautiful experience, trekking with Spirit of Kilimanjaro.

After having read a lot of good comments on internet, we had quickly a brief meetup with William by videoconference from home and then multiple messages when we had questions.

From the payment (small deposit before and the rest directly in cash in Moshi) to the trek itself and friendly moments sharing with the entire team also when back in town, everythings was trustworthy (payments / tips were clear and discussed with tact and assertivity from both part) and absolutely enjoyable.

If William did not take part finally to the ascension, hiking with Tuliza and David was a pleasure for both of us,, respecting our own pace and being really supportive during the final ascent. It looked like hiking with friends (and you know how tricky it could be sometimes).

Porters and the entire staff did a marvellous job.
Even if it could appear rather unusual for us to be assisted so much, it helps the community and improve significantly the feassbility to reach the summit. No matter your physical condition and skills, the last day (night) legitimate itself the need of guidance.

We thank sincerely William and all the staff of Spirit, they do a great job.
Speaking with others travellers, who accomplished or not the ascent, it was worth to pay a little bit more (still much less than booking with a big operator) : warm sleeping bag etc.
