• Arrive at the Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), where you will meet your tourist guide representative and transfer to the hotel in Arusha/Moshi.

• In the evening, head for a briefing with a designated presenter, who will also make sure you are ready to begin the climb.

• Meet your Kilimanjaro guide and a mountain support crew to arrive at the hotel.

• Hold another briefing, after which you will travel by vehicle (roughly 3–4 hours) to Kilimanjaro National Park's western entrance: Londorossi Gate (2,200 m).

• After the quick formality of acquiring climbing permits and registering with the search and rescue service, continue upwards towards the drop-off point by off-road vehicles (reaching 3,500 meters). Here, you can see stunning views of the Shira Plateau for the first time.

• The route from your drop off point to your first high-altitude camp Shira 2, features a moderate gain in altitude and is not too physically challenging.

• Properly begin the process of acclimatisation through a steady ascent. By the time you reach the camp, your professional mountain crew will prepare everything necessary, put tents and cook dinner for you.

Hiking distance: 11 km

Hiking time: 5–6 hours

• After breakfast, leave Shira 2 Camp (3,900 m) and start your way to the key point of the route: Lava Tower (4,630 m). This section of the route has a lot of ascents and descents that end in a camp at over 4,600 meters. It might be difficult, and you may feel some discomfort, but in order to successfully acclimate to the altitude, you have to spend at least 1–2 hours here, so this is where lunch will be.

• Then, descend to Barranco Camp (3,960 m). Here you can see the famous Barranco Wall, impressive in both its massive size and steepness! The next day you will be climbing it, but don't worry: it features a very simple hiking trail.

• Start early, after breakfast, for summiting the Barranco Wall. Hiking up the gorge wall is not difficult and only takes around an hour.

• After the climb,  rest and utilize the opportunity to take photos in front of the Kibo volcano.

• Then, start a more difficult hike to Karanga Camp, which features numerous ascents and descents during the route, but don't worry: our guides are experts at choosing an optimal pace for the group. After reaching the camp, you will be offered warm lunch.

• After a couple of hours, complete an acclimatisation hike in the direction of Barafu Camp with a 300-meter gain in altitude, and then descent back down to the camp.

•  After breakfast,  begin your way to Barafu Summit Camp (4,640 m), the starting point for a night summiting Uhuru Peak (5,895 m). The team will set up a camp for you ahead of time, including tents and sleeping bags, so you can relax.

• After regaining strength, complete an acclimatisation hike towards the intermediate Kosovo Summit Camp (4,800 m) and then back to Barafu Camp, where you will be served a hot dinner. It is better to spend the remainder of the day resting and sleeping before night summiting.

• Depart from Barafu Camp (4,640 m) at night to start summiting Kilimanjaro: Uhuru Peak (5,895 m). Technically the climb is relatively simple; however, the most challenging part is the high altitude. Each pair of climbers will get a personal guide for the entire ascent to monitor your physical and mental conditions.

• After your successful ascent to Uhuru Peak, descend to the nearest glacier if desired. Then, return to Barafu Camp, and after a 2-hour rest, continue your descent to Millennium Camp (3,820 m).

Note: Don't forget that 90% of all accidents occur during the descent, including all broken arms and legs. Please pay attention to your feet, as there is a high risk of damaging your toenails.

• Head for the Millenium camp, which is situated in a tropical rainforest. When you wake up, you will feel relief from the reduction of the height and the satisfaction of reaching the summit.

• After a warm breakfast,  head for the park's exit: Mweka Gate (1,650 m). After your descent, the whole group will gather to congratulate you, followed by offering you a chance to share your opinions on the climb in the guestbook.

• Lastly, you will be presented with your commemorative certificates in our office and transferred back to the hotel.
