Kilimanjaro Marangu Trekking Route

Joined ‘The Bucket List Company’ for a Kilimanjaro trek in September 2023 on the Marangu route. I came across the company by shear chance but booking with them was the best thing i could have done! Using their payment plan for booking made a trip possible that i may not otherwise have been able to experience Booking the trip as a solo traveler for the first time left me a little anxious about what to expect but from the moment i met the group and Keith at the airport that all disappeared. The whole trip was so well organised from meeting at the airport to finally reaching the summit felt smooth and the daily briefings kept us well informed. The relationship and respect that the local guides have with TBLC speaks a 1000s words through their actions and goals to help you get through even the toughest of mental places on summit night!! Memories and friends made for life!! Already booked my next trip with them and cannot wait to add to the above. – Paul Sept 23

Wow what an experience and what a brilliant company.

I went on the Kilimanjaro trip Marangu route 5/09/23. Everything about this trip from start to finish has been brilliant. The team at the Bucket List Company always on hand via email or phone call to answer any questions.

The trip itself was flawless from start to finish, from arriving at the airport and transfers to the hotel. Briefings at each stage of the climb so as not to get too overwhelmed. The porters, the guides, the cooks all amazing.

I especially need to thank the guides and Keith for making sure I reached the summit and the altitude sure did affect me and summit was a struggle. But with the help of all the team I made it along with all 18 other members of the group.

If you’re wanting a once in a lifetime experience you should definitely use this company to care of everything for you. I might not be climbing any mountains any time soon but you bet I’ll be booking another trip with the bucket list company for sure. – Helen Sept 23

Kilimanjaro had been on my bucket list for a number of years but COVID really accelerated my focus to getting it done. I researched a number of companies but settled with The Bucket List Company (TBLC) due to the detailed information provided, including podcasts and videos and the provision of a UK guide on the trip (to assist with any issues that may arise) and a fantastic Tanzanian Team. My decision couldn’t have been better. Once booked I was given access to the Vamoos app which provided so much trip information, including day by day summary, flight information, packing lists, videos, reading suggestions and so much more. Excellent. Any other queries (few and far between) were answered quickly and effectively by the ever friendly and helpful office staff. The trip itself was just incredible. So well organised, everything worked like a well oiled machine. Safety is a priority of TBLC. Importantly the trip included an extra acclimatisation day. This really increased the chances of a successful summit by reducing the effects of altitude. Sats and health were checked daily and monitored closely. The fabulous Tanzanian guides, porters and cooks placed safety at the centre of everything; ensuring everyone walked slowly whilst gaining altitude and taking regular sips of water. (Very important) and eating excellent meals with plenty of carbohydrates for energy. However, they also made sure that not only was this a challenging trip but that it was also great fun, with lots of laughs, songs and dancing. Work hard, play hard. The last ascent to the summit was slow and cold. Warm socks and gloves/mittens are essential, but wow! What an achievement to reach Gilmans Point for sunrise! That really is special. I really can’t recommend TBLC highly enough. This trip was everything I’d hoped for and more, spent with such an eclectic, lovely group of like minded people. If you’re after a once in a lifetime trip that is safe, fun and leaves you with a happy glow of memories, I wouldn’t look anywhere else than The Bucket List Company. Maximum Respect. – Sharon Sept 23

Kilimanjaro Marangu Trekking Route

I recently embarked on an extraordinary adventure with The Bucket List Company to conquer Kilimanjaro via the Marangu route, and I can’t stop raving about it! From the moment we landed in Kilimanjaro, our journey was nothing short of amazing.

The Bucket List Company made sure that every aspect of our journey was meticulously planned and executed. From the start of our expedition in Kilimanjaro, we were well taken care of. One highlight of our trip was the visit to an orphanage, which added a meaningful connection to our adventure.

The accommodations at the lodge were absolutely stunning, providing us with a comfortable and relaxing environment to rest before and after our trek. The attention to detail and the service were top-notch.

What truly sets The Bucket List Company apart is their commitment to creating unforgettable experiences. This Kilimanjaro trek was another adventure for me; having previously conquered Everest Base Camp with them, I can attest to their consistent excellence in organising and guiding these remarkable journeys. I’ve already booked several more trips with them, and I can’t wait for the next adventure. If you’re seeking a travel company that goes above and beyond to ensure your journey is exceptional, look no further than The Bucket List Company. Highly recommended! 🌍🏔️✈️ – Candice Sept 23
