Machame, Marangu and Umbwe. You sleep in Moshi the night before and after, and the drive to the gate takes about 50 minutes to Marangu and around an hour to Machame. For Lemosho, the Northern Circuit or Rongai, tell us where you are staying and we will plan the transfers around it.

Yes. Private climbs leave on any date you choose, all year round. If you would rather climb with other people, we also run scheduled group-joining climbs on fixed dates.
Our porters are our own staff. They are paid, fed and equipped properly, and we enforce load limits on every climb, because a well-treated crew is also a safer crew.
Your guides check every climber with a pulse oximeter on the mountain and watch for the warning signs all day. Every climb carries emergency oxygen, and anyone with serious symptoms goes down with a guide, because descending is the treatment that works.
