Introduction

This is a beautiful Kilimanjaro Climb that allows you to experience the southwest and south sides of the mountain, since you go up one way and down another. All your equipment and supplies are carried by porters and a cook prepares all your meals. You sleep in tents that the porters pitch for you. Meals are served in a dinner tent or on a blanket outside. The Machame route, referred to as the “Whiskey Route,” is suited to more adventurous hikers and rewards you with excellent views. From late afternoon sunsets at Shira, to the misty revelations of Kibo’s great Barranco Wall, the Machame Route offers a continuous scenic slide show.
