Welcome to Tanzania! This 10 Days Kilimanjaro Combine Tour offers the perfect blend of adventure and wildlife. It combines a challenging yet rewarding climb up Mount Kilimanjaro via the scenic Lemosho Route with an exciting safari through Tanzania’s most iconic national parks; Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire.
This 10 Days Kilimanjaro Combine Tour is designed for those seeking both the thrill of conquering Africa’s highest peak and the excitement of witnessing the continent’s incredible wildlife. The Lemosho Route is known for its high success rate due to its gradual ascent, allowing for better acclimatization, while the safari portion offers the chance to explore Tanzania’s rich and diverse ecosystems.
The Lemosho Route is one of the most scenic and less crowded routes to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. It offers a high success rate due to its longer acclimatization period and gradual ascent.
The trek begins on the western side of Kilimanjaro with a scenic drive from Moshi to Londorossi Gate.
The first two days take you through the lush rainforests, rich with wildlife and exotic flora.
The route joins the Machame Route at Shira 2 Camp and then follows the southern circuit, which offers stunning views of Kilimanjaro’s glaciers and dramatic landscapes.
The descent is via Mweka Gate, providing a different perspective of the mountain.
After the Kilimanjaro climb, you’ll embark on a 3-day safari through three of Tanzania's most famous wildlife destinations — Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park.

At Stella Point (18,600 ft), you will stop for a short rest and will be rewarded with the most magnificent sunrise you are ever likely to see (weather permitting). From Stella Point, you may encounter snow all the way on your 1-hour ascent to the summit. At Uhuru Peak, you have reached the highest point on Mount Kilimanjaro and the continent of Africa. Faster hikers will see the sunrise from the summit.
From the summit, we now make our descent continuing straight down to the Mweka Hut camp site, stopping at Barafu for lunch. You will want gaiters and trekking poles for the loose gravel going down.

Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Crater supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is its dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot.
