Amazing hike with Almighty Kilimanjaro
5/5

My partner and I celebrated our 39th birthdays by climbing Kilimanjaro with Almighty Kilimanjaro despite this pandemic and it was the most incredible experience of our lives. The communication leading up to our trek with Almghty Kilimanjaro team was supportive and informative, they anticipated all our needs, even with flight changes that wasn't informed of until a few days before.

The guides we had - Justine and Lino - I recommend them thoroughly!!! Without their support, friendly attitudes, knowledge, preparedness and great conversation we would not have made it to the top. They truly care about their climbers and want you to succeed, which we both did.
Everyone in our team were friendly and knowledgeable, and the food our chef cooked was some of the best food we've ever had. The things they are able to cook at those altitudes and with minimal cooking supplies is incredible. Having pizza at 4,800m will definitely be a memory we won't forget. We would do the climb again just for the exceptional food alone.
In addition to this, our team surprised us on the 3rd night with a birthday cake and non-alcoholic sparkling wine and sang us happy birthday to celebrate the occasion. We were truly speechless at this gesture, and that someone carried these extra items for 3 days. It was so thoughtful and unexpected.

If you are looking for a remarkable experience and a successful climb with a reliable and safe company, definitely climb with Almighty Kilimanjaro. If you can request guides, absolutely request Justice and Limo. We cannot thank you all enough for everything that made our climb successful and incredibly special.

Thank you for a fantastic experience
5/5

Thank you Almighty Killimanjaro for a splendid experience throughout the trip from Nov 1st- Nov 7th climbing Kilimanjaro from Machame route. Chief guide Innocent, guide Steve and chef Sadick supported by their able and professional team made our trip safe, trouble free and loads of fun. We could see and feel the team JigJig and an earnest desire and effort to make our climb as comfortable as possible. It was an absolute delight all through. The special Birthday cake and celebration on the mountain made the trip extra special for us. Thank you Almighty Kilimanjaro and also my fellow climbers Carlin and Meghan. I feel I totally lucked out on this climb.

Fantastic experience
5/5

We booked via internet a 6-day private budget safari to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara. After some research, Almighty Kilimanjaro gave us the best rate. Even the transfer from Kilimanjaro airport to Arusha was included. And we really received great value for the money.
The whole safari exceeded our expectations in every way. Instead of 4 nights camping, we stayed the first and the last night to Kizumba Tented lodge, in clean spacious tents with real beds.
Our guide, Paulo, was excellent. He knows a lot about the animals, can find them easily and is a good and safe driver. He has a very good scense of humour, we had a lot of fun with him.
In Serengeti and the Ngorongoro conservation area he proposed us to leave the camping as early as 6 - 6.30 in the morning. So we were the first to descend into the crater, and had the luck to observe the rhinos from nearby. Also our young cook, Tulo pampered us with excellent food and service and a lot of humour.
We had a wonderful time and recommend Almighty Kilimanjaro to everyone.

Best experience in my life!!
5/5

When we decided to go on a safari, we checked on forums to get an opinion on the different operators and contacted Rasheedy for a quote. His was the best deal on the market, the most complete and comprehensive.
We chose the 6 day safari tour Tarangire-Ngorongoro-Manyara- Serengeti and Rasheedy included 2 extra hotel nights and taxi to airport and back as well as guiding around Arusha.
And what a great choice did we make!!
Everything was awesome: the hotels, the food, the locations... but best of all and upmost important was our guide Maximillan who’s so knowledgeable about animals and African life and who’s got the eyesight of a Marvel superhero :)
He would drive, safely, and at the same time spot animals in the hardest places to spot them. He also masters perfectly the habits and particularities of each species so that he can take you exactly where they will be and explain for you.
And all of this with a smile:)
It was a fantasy experience. Going on a safari is truly if the most mesmerizing things to do in your lifetime and we’re glad we chose Almighty Kilimanjaro to do that.
Thanks Rasheedy and thanks Max, we won’t forget you;)

Incredible team
5/5

The Almighty Kilimanjaro team are fantastic - we always felt like we were in safe hands and because of their help all of our group made it to the summit. A truly fantastic experience. The guides were incredible - we couldn't have done it without them, (in my case - particularly Jonas). This company safety is their first priority. Just be sure to bring extra money for tips because the guides and porters go above and beyond and you will want to make sure they are rewarded for this.

6 Days migration safari
5/5

A huge thank you to Almighty Kilimanjaro for the incredible and unforgettable safari experience in Serengeti and Ngorongoro for our anniversary. Simon our guide and new found friend made this trip special filled with great memories. He is well versed with anything and everything we asked about Tanzania or the animals. His careful driving kept us going trough muddy tracks deep to Ndutu where an incredible spectacle was happening. We were in the middle of thousands of wildebeest calving! I recommend the the complete package of safari and accommodations because enjoyed the same high standard on our trip all through.

I could not have asked for a better team
5/5

4 of us assisted by 14 member team from Almighty Kilimanjaro climbed Mt. Killi using 7 day Machame route. Our guides Innocent and Saidy assisted by chef Muniri and porters Sam, John, others went over and beyond to keep us comfortable, calm and educated all through the hike. They took care of us from the time we landed to the end of the trip, paying close attention to every detail. Adam the driver and Saidy the administrator were so awesome. The whole team of Almighty Kilimanjaro are top class and they show they really care of their clients. Love their team and highly recommend them.

Amazing adventure to the roof of Africa
5/5

We are a group of 'trekkie friends' from Germany and Canada. Our age range from 46 to 71. This is my 2nd trekking trip with Almighty Kilimanjaro. It is the 1st trip for my 12 friends.

We did a customized trek pkg of the above routes for our group of 'not young' trekkers hoping to enjoy the beauty of the mountains and each with dreams to fulfill.

We are all very pleased with the services from Almighty Kilimanjaro - from the way Rasheedy handles our many requests, fears etc to the care and love we received from the team of 1 chief guide, 5 assistant guides, 2 cooks, 2 servers and 46 porters. It was an unforgettable trip and all of us (& other trekkie friends) are still talking about the trip. Some of us are thinking of doing another climb of Mt Kilimanjaro in 3 years' time.

Augustino, our chief guide, is 2nd to none, in our opinion. I have been trekking for 16 years in many countries including high altitude mountains, and I am now 64 years old. I have not found a more caring guide, who not only went the 3rd & 4th mile to look out for all of us & make our dreams come true, but who also showed care to his team and I can see they respected him. I called him 'my friend'.

Juma - a very experienced guide, who has all the knowledge and know exactly what to do, and one we feel we can trust. One of our friends call him 'kaka'.

Saidy - solid and steady young man/guide, who knows how to encourage and pace us during the trek. We feel very safe and assured with him.

Sembe - ever ready and willing to help ... even trying to help my friend & I (holding each one of us with his 2 hands) down the crater slope in the night. Most guides will just lead one, but he tries harder when he knows there are not enough helpers. Together with one of our friends, they both kept us singing and playing along the treks and gave us many happy moments.

Musa - an experienced guide, who took very good care of one of our friends when she had to descend the mountain on summit night. He went the extra mile to ensure she is taken care of when she is alone in Moshi, waiting for us to return.

Pendael - another young guide who took excellent care of 2 of our friends when they had to descend the mountain mid way through summit night. He ensured their safety etc and get them to hotel in Moshi where they met our other friend.

Joshua - a very enthusiastic & helpful young porter, who in our opinion can be a good guide too, with the appropriate training. We noticed he would run to us after he offloaded his stuff at camp, to help guide us and carry our backpacks. Even on the night when we had to descend to crater camp after summiting Uhuru Peak, we see him running up the loose slope to help one of our friends all the way down to crater camp. Very impressed with him.

Excellent cooks in Damian and Mushi too. Imagine eating 'Germany fried rice sticks/beehoon and rice porridge' during the treks? They were willing to learn from one of our friends to prepare these for us! We were also very pleasantly surprised with the many variety of food they cooked up for us. Banquet on the trek! How fortunate for us.

There are many unsung heroes in the team that helped made our trip easier, safe and unforgettable. We are forever grateful to the team. We had so much fun during the trek, and bonded so well with the team, it is very sad to leave. We will treasure them in our hearts, and pray God will protect and bless them always.

Until we meet again in 3 years time.....

Once in a lifetime experience
5/5

Our Safari tour in the Serengeti was one of the most amazing experiences we have had in our life. It would not have happened without Almighty Kilimanjaro. They organized most memorable trip for us which surpassed all our expectations.

Our tour guide Bernad was absolutely wonderful, he is a very experienced, professional, and reliable person. He is someone you can trust, great driver with an excellent eye for spotting and finding animals in the wild.
We got to see breathtaking wildlife scenes and animals - lioness with three cubs eating their pray, elephants protecting their young ones from lions, wildebeest crossing Mara river, pride of six lions moving past our car early morning on their way to hunt...We also saw rhinos, massive crocodiles and hippos.
Thanks again Bernad for perfect trip!

I would definitely recommend Almighty Kilimanjaro to everyone planning to do Safari in Tanzania and we will for sure use them again in the future
Thank you Rasheedy for your professionalism, great responsiveness and organization of our tailor made tour from Zanzibar

Excellent Kilimanjaro climb
5/5

Almighty Kilimanjaro has exceeded my expectations. Beginning with Rasheedy whom i have been communicating and attended to my several requests. We had the most amazing experience with them starting with our two knowledgeable and caring guides, Mushi and Juma. Mushi came prior to the trip to brief and check our gears to ensure we have proper equipments. First day we were greeted by a bunch of enthusiastic team. Mushi kept checking if we were okay daily and constantly offered to help me and checking on our conditions. He gave us valuable advise for this successful and memorable hike. Meals are delicious, nutritious and comforting for those tiring and cold chilly nights. The soups made by Chef Adam is delicious!!! The rest of the dedicated porters were caring, friendly, efficient and hardworking bunch. This experienced is unforgettable and with dedication and assistance from Almighty Kilimanjaro Kilimanjaro, we have made it to Africa's highest peak. I would highly recommend Almighty Kilimanjaro and Chief guide Mushi if you want a successful and enjoyable hike
