Safari Lake Manyara & Ngorongoro Crater. I had the best guides John and James where so nice and patient. I had a broken ankle after the Kilimangiaro trek and James took me to the hospital and stayed with me is truly a gem! Beside being funny and able to spot all the animals!

Honestly I went with Monkey Adventures because of the reviews. I saw they were cheaper than other companies and had great reviews as well. I can attest to that. What an incredible company! They delivered every step of the way and made for an unforgettable experience. They were always prompt to answer emails. Once we arrived in Tanzania, every day was as promised and exceeded expections. We knew exactly what to expect day to day from thorough briefings. Our guide Remmy made sure all the details were taken care of. We never doubted him for a minute. He runs a tight ship and it shows along with assistant guide Peter. We couldn't have asked for a better group of support guides, cook, porters to go with. They were all caring and a fun group to spend 6 days with. If we went back to do this again, we would ask for Remmy (17 years experience!). The food was much better than expected as well thanks to our cook Simon. I couldn’t believe we had hot water basins every morning and evening to wash with. We felt pampered with the resources available on this hike.

I did the Kilimanjaro Lemosho trek in August with John Summay and his team. I was most impressed with their organization and team work, everything was so thought out and ran like clockwork. Great food and abundant. The guys were very proficient and always in good cheer, constantly checking on my health and well-being.
John is really experienced, I would not have made the summit without him. He is extremely knowledgeable on many topics. I can highly recommend this experienced crew.
When arranging the trek Monkey Adventures were very informative, always replied very quickly and were also very flexible when I needed to change dates, etc.
Absolutely no cons, only pros.

This company is the best tour / guide company I have ever worked with. The guide and porters were outstanding. Above my expectations in every single way.
There was one small error to my last lunch of the tour and with one email, monkey adventure made it more than right, better than it was before.
The office staff is the easiest to work with. Any request is honored. Communication is clear and timely. Their policies are more than fair.
The food was SO good. And the portions are ridiculously big and I eat A LOT. I couldn’t eat as much as I was given.
I got meals on the mountain I didn’t think were possible to cook on a mountain.
Summit night my porter took my shoes off when I got back from my descent. He met me 20 min up the trail on the way down to grab my bag and bring me a snack. He did so much for me all week.
My tent was always ready when I got to camp.
The crew was ALWAYS laughing, smiling, joking and having fun. Always! They work so hard yet maintain such wonderful happy energy the entire trip. Even when I was in my tent I could hear them.
I was at first unsure which group to use there are so many. But I am so glad I chose monkey adventures. They are not the most expensive they are not the cheapest. Rheure in the middle. They are fairly priced and what you get for what you pay is a great value. I can’t believe everything I got, the service I received, for what I paid.

I traveled with a friend from Poland, and together, we undertook the Machame route over 6 days on Mount Kilimanjaro. The experience was truly amazing as we hiked our way up to almost 6000 meters above sea level. Being accompanied by guides Albert and Chengu made the journey even more special. They provided invaluable assistance, taught us some Swahili words, and took great care of us throughout the climb.
I highly recommend choosing them as guides and summit porter for your Kilimanjaro adventure! :)

The hike up Kilimanjaro was an incredible experience, it was the perfect challenge I was looking for and some definite Type 2 fun. The entire team at MonkeyAdventures made every one of the 8 days we were on the mountain so enjoyable. I wasn’t initially a fan of having others carry my gear between camps, but honestly after 10km of trekking it was such a nice touch to come into camp and see everyone there ready to welcome you and congratulate you on crushing another day. The hot coffee and tea delivered right to the tent every morning was the best way to wake up and get warm once you get up to altitude. Our guides Ramadan and Jop were absolute legends. Between the two of them they knew the name for every flower and bird we saw on the trail, and they had a million stories about other summit trips to share that entertained us through the journey. Our porters were awesome, especially Will and Isaac who gave us some extra help on summit night to make sure everyone got to the top as a group, that really made the morning fantastic. Christian was a wizard in the cooking tent, he genuinely made us pizza at 3000m up. Incredible. Yunus was a fantastic host, always checking in on us during meals and making sure we had everything prepped before heading out in the morning. The whole team at Monkey was stellar, they really made the trip seamless. I wouldn’t have changed a thing, I couldn’t imagine my experience without them.

I had an amazing time. My guides and porters were very friendly and supportive. The food was incredible and they made sure I was well fed leading up to base camp. My guide, Gasper, was very informative and helped me rent all the necessary equipment before we began the climb. I would absolutely recommend this.

We were four of us in our group and had an amazing trek experience. Except for summit day, which was a true test of physical endurance and mental grit. Pro tip - train well, minimum 3 months and avoid looking up the trail ! Our trek lead Gasper and his assistant Juma were a thorough processionals, always willing to hear you out, even go the extra mile and ensure safety is never compromised, without them we would have been dead meat !
Thanks to them - We even learnt the Hakunamatata song completely !!

Is there a reason the company is not a KPAP partner? How can we be assured you treat the crew properly if you are not monitored?

My son Luke ( Lucas) Jeffery would have summited 3 hours ago but experienced high altitude pulmonary edema. I believe he would have been medically evacuated. I am horribly worried. He was on the Lemosho route . How can I contact him , his guide, the hospital ? Please let me know right away. This is an emergency. I believe his phone does not have any power left. My Number is +1 250 218-4743
Please please contact me.

A few have done the Umbwe route. It's rare and it has to be a private trek.

Hi, do you recommend to take Diamox for the trip? Is it possible to buy in Moshi? Thanks

Yes, it is better to take Diamox. If you get a headache, you cannot enjoy the trek at all.
We brought Diamox with us. There would not have been time to get it from Moshi.

Does this company provide oxygen and make you feel safe if health issues occur? Was 7 days enough to hike Lemosho?

> Does this company provide oxygen
Yes, we provide oxygen cylinders as an optional add-on.
> make you feel safe if health issues occur?
Very hard to answer this question. We have always had positive reviews even from those who couldn't make it to the summit due to health issues. Our guide team is very experienced, with many of the senior guides having led over 300 tours. So we have tons of experience and seen many situations on the mountain.
> Was 7 days enough to hike Lemosho?
Usually yes. Our recommendation is to always choose the longest duration possible based on your budget and time schedule.
