The best way to reach the summit and enjoy the journey!
We just came back down after reaching the summit of Kilimanjaro. There were five of us, ages 40 to 65, and we arranged everything through Kilimanjaro Select.
My review is very clear: this is the best company if your goal is to truly enjoy the mountain experience with highly professional guides.
The focus is on professionalism and a real connection with the mountain, not on a Disney-style, cheerleader tour like some other operators offer. I highly recommend this company and the team they work with.
The route, acclimatization days, and guides are perfectly suited for anyone to reach the summit.
I’ll be back!

Safe and reliable
The whole journey was very relaxing. The team leader was very professional. He successfully took me to the top and saw the beautiful sunrise. The food cooked by the chef was also very suitable. Everyone in the whole team was very good. He had a lot of care for us. Thank you very much for the help of the team and helped me realise my wish to reach the top. I also hope that the company can develop better and better.

This operator help me complete my mission and dream
I think each guides and porters are very professional, I can trust them with my whole heart. They encouraged me when the climbing turns to difficult and help me reach the summit! They also bring joy and music to our tour which I love so much.
Our safari guide is also a professional guy who take us to chase the big five and we gather them all! He is so responsible for everything, meals, safety, extra… I definitely recommend this company for those still struggling for choosing operations.

Very Excellent Trip for Hiking and Safari
The hiking guides and porters were exceptionally professional, going out of their way to assist us all the way to the summit. Throughout the hike, the guides shared a wealth of knowledge about Mount Kilimanjaro—covering its diverse climate zones, unique plant species, and native wildlife, among other fascinating topics. What made the journey even more memorable was the musician in our group, who carried a guitar along the way; we often gathered to sing and dance together, turning tired moments into joyful ones.
The safari trip that followed was equally fantastic. Our driver took us on an immersive safari to spot the "Big Five" (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and African buffalo), and we were thrilled to catch sight of these iconic animals, as well as many other species we had never seen in person before. All in all, this was by far my favorite trip ever.
reliable friends
We share good time togther with one goal, And together we made it, big thanks to the team!

If you don't pursue an ultra-luxurious experience, you can choose...
I had a personalized safari itinerary that only lasted 4 days, covering the central, northern Serengeti and Ngorongoro. As a result, much of the time was spent on the road. Maybe the animals have been hiding in recent years, so the ones I saw weren't as spectacular as I imagined, but the guide was still earnest in helping me look for them.
The wind and sand were enormous along the way. After the first day, I was covered in black from hair to toes, and my skin and respiratory tract were also full of sand. Later, on the return flight, someone suggested wearing a full-face visible veil directly, which would provide better protection.
Regarding meals, compared with other tourists' food, I thought mine was just average, which might be because I ate the same kind for too many days. I started having lunch boxes on the first day of hiking, and ended up eating them for five or six days in total.
It wasn't like the freshly cooked meals shown in online photos from other people, and of course I didn't see any other tour groups serving freshly cooked food either. However, I did see many people with hot meals, whereas all the packed lunch boxes were cold.
Accommodation: Maybe because I decided too late, I stayed in tents for two nights and in other types of accommodation for the other two. One place had no shampoo or body wash, and another had no hair dryer. If you need these, remember to bring them yourself.

Professional guide, encouraging spirit and nutritional food！！
I’ve compared the card rates from different agencies before choosing Kilimanjaro Select, turned out my choice was right! It was my first high altitude hiking and I made it to Stella Point! Although failed summit but I was quite satisfied with both myself and my guide team. They were very supportive and took good care of me, always felt I was in the safe hands! My guide talked with me a lot about the culture and stories about Tanzania and the tribes, it was not just a hiking but also a cultural exchange, never got chance to be bored. Don’t be shy when hiking, making jokes always make the hiking easier and more enjoyable!
