Great tour operator, a real pleasure
I went with my son to Kilimanjaro on a trip organized by Jungle Explorers. It was my second trip to Mt.Kibo, before I went with an international mountaineering organisation for nearly twice the price, but not the same quality. I can only recommend Jungle Explorers, we had a custom trip for a party of four. Very good guides, good equipment, good food and a great & squeaky clean toilet every day, which is a great thing to have. I have been on many safari trips before, but I would only book with Jungle Explorers now.

Kilimanjaro Trek
My wife and I booked our Kilimanjaro trek through Frank of Jungle Explorers Tanzania in January 2013. We hiked the Lemosho Route over the course of 8 days and successfully reached the peak of Kilimanjaro before sunrise on the 7th morning. Our porters and crew were excellent as well as professional, our guide was accommodating and when we wanted to do a bit of additional exploration such as hike up Cathedral and Shira Cave, it was no problem.
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Frank to anyone interested in a Kilimanjaro adventure. He really made our Kilimanjaro trek one of the best memories of our Africa trip!

Reaching Kilimanjaro- acomplished
We were a group of 7 from ages 16- 51 all of us reach the Summit! 100% succes rate. It was a once in a lifetime exprience, the whole 7 day journey was amazing the guides were very friendly and dedícate to our goal of reaching the Summit. They were flexible since our group had climbers from different skill levels. The main guide adjust the intinerary to make it more comfortable for us. The equipment was perfect for our trip and the weather was incredible we only encounter one small shower one afteroon.
Our trip will be in our memories forever. Kudos to our operator without them we will not have this memories.

Great Kilimanjaro Tour
thank you very much for professional Kilimanjaro Tour on Machame Route. We were a group of 4 with two 18 year old boys. The guides were very kind and experienced. When I felt sick, on the third day, they really looked after me and gave me helpful advices. The cook was perfect an prepared delicious, meals for us, with some traditional dishes. The guides always set the best pace for us and we all reached the peak without any problems. They were very flexible and agreed to our plan to leave the night camp at 4am in the morning, instead of midnight. We enjoyed the final climb because we only had do walk 3 hours in the dark, the track was completely ours and we had to share the peak (at 10am) with no one else. The whole tour we felt very well looked after. Thank's to all of you, the porters, the cook, the waiter, the toilet guy and the guides for this outstanding experience - I will never forget.

A great experience
Our tour to Uhuru peak of Kilimanjaro was very well organized from the first to the last minute. Everyone of our group of 8 tourists made it to the summit. This was to large extent due our guides who were seriously concerned about this success, and proved to be most competent and considerate. It was important that they carefully set the pace in hiking and climbing. I very well remember other groups who did not adjust their speed to the altitude, and the disappointed, sick expression on the faces of those who had to give up because of - unnecessary - exhaustion and, perhaps, not enough adaptation. I also would like to mention the always friendly, pleasant atmosphere which we enjoyed with the whole team during the climb, and interesting conversations.
