Abakombe Tours - Moshi, Tanzania

Great Campany

We were a group of 12 people After researching over 20 climbing companies (seriously!) we settled on Abakombe Tours for their quick and thorough response, commitment toward the local community, safety, and reviews. Since this was our first trip to Africa, we can't compare it with any other tour company, but we have nothing but great things to say about our head guide, the assistant guides, the porters and staff. We didn't have time for a safari, so sorry I can't provide any information on that, but as for the company, its values, and the climb itself I was thoroughly delighted.
Our head guide Chacha was really fantastic and the food was delicious, really unforgettable experience!

Great Climb
"We climbed Mt Kilimanjaro with Chacha at Abakombe Tours and his team and were impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. We saw many other hikers struggling with the climb and some who were forced to turn back due to errors made by other guides, including inadequate English skills, lack of attention to the condition of their clients and even one person who had to turn back due being given incorrect and unnecessary medications by his guide. Chacha on the other hand is a consummate and attentive professional with lots of experience, great English and (just as important) excellent high altitude first aid training. We were checked each day for our blood oxygen levels and general condition. At least one member of our party almost certainly wouldn't have made it to the top without Chacha’s care and encouragement. I strongly recommend that anyone wanting to summit Kilimanjaro pick their guides with great care and highly recommend this company.
