Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route is one of the newer Kilimanjaro Routes offering panoramic views of the mountain and a higher summit success rate. The early days on the Lemosho Route provides plenty of solitude, as this trail sees far less traffic than Machame and Marangu route. This makes an already-great trekking adventure even more spectacular as at times it will feel like you have the entire mountain to yourself.
Lemosho Route is one of the most ideal routes compared to other routes and it starts through a lush forest and continues towards the Shira plateau. It is recommeded a minimum of 7 days attempt to this route but 8 or 9 days attempt would be preferred for higher acclimatization and a successful summit.
The Lemosho Route cost for a seven-day group climb or private climb starts from US$ 2500 onwards depending on the services being provided. This price is inclusive of lodging, meals, trekking permissions, and more.
If you decided to go for the eight-day Lemosho Route trip, the cost increases up to $300-$400 per person. This option includes eight days on the mountain and one day on either side at our partner lodge in Moshi.
— Prepare a perfect playlist of your favorite songs to listen while climbing the summit.
— Try to stay positive even when the journey seems impossible as climbing can be physically and mentally challenging.
— Be sure to wear your hiking boots before your adventure to Kilimanjaro to avoid blisters.
— Be sure to pack a generous supply of wet wipes and be prepared not to shower for a week.
— To reduce the symptoms of altitude sickness, you must consume as much water as physically possible.
— You should also be mentally prepared for case of altitude sickness. Altitude sickness occurs on the third day of your hike; therefore, it is best to allow extra time in your itinerary where possible.
— We suggest you to add an extra night to your journey to reduce the impact of altitude sickness.
— Try to spend a few weekends camping to get familiar with using limited facilities so that it mentally prepares for the Kilimanjaro climbing and helps you overcome any small barriers you might encounter.
— The best time to climb Mount Kilimanjaro is from June to October.

We had a great experience with Suricata Safaris!! It was all very comfortable since they took care of all the transportation. As soon as we arrived, Hilary came to our accommodation to explain what our itinerary was going to be for the next few days. It is very expressive and pleasant. We started the safari with Frederic as our guide.
We are a group of six friends, we chose the 5-day safari with Suricata Safari on the recommendation of a friend who did the same last year, and of course it was a great choice. The route of the trip was Tarangire-Manyara-Serengeti-Ngorongoro. In short, an incredible experience, good value for money and above all a ten to Rocky. One hundred percent recommended!
We chose this company based on TripAdvisor reviews and we couldn't have made a better choice! From the first moment Hilary took great care of us, making sure that everything was perfect. The Florid guide is very attentive and he tried to make us see as many animals as possible; Chef Chaz cooks amazing!! Suricata Safaris is undoubtedly the best option!
We did a complete search and compared with many companies and Suricata seemed to us the best option, without a doubt a GREAT SUCCESS. We had Florid as a guide, who made an effort to find all the possible animals, apart from making us a super pleasant and fun stay.
