Marangu is the most famous and the least expensive route, perhaps it's because it is possible to do the Marangu route in 5 days. You'll get to the summit one day earlier compared to the Machame route. This is not always the best way, due to a shorter acclimatization period. The Marangu route does, however, offer you the option of spending an extra acclimatization day on the mountain. This extends the route into a 6-day trek, greatly increasing your chances of success.
