Its diverse habitats, including grasslands, forests, swamps, and soda lakes, create some of the best wildlife viewing opportunities in Africa.

10-days Mt. Kilimanjaro & Safari Adventure
Journey Highlights: - 10days 9nights- Climb Mount Kilimanjaro Via Machame Route - Reach Africa's highest peak - Explore Tarangire National Park - Visit the Ngorongoro Crater Tour OverviewWhiskey Route In an overall comparison of routes to scale Kilimanjaro, this is one of the best, both for acclimatization and cost. The Machame route is considered difficult and is better suited to more adventurous trekkers and those with some hiking or backpacking experience. The Machame route is scenically beautiful and varied. However, due to its popularity, there are increased numbers of trekkers, and it loses some of its splendor. The Machame route approaches the summit from the southwest and descends using the Mweka route, rewarding climbers with views of the expansive Shira Plateau, an optional scramble up Lava Tower, a climb up the Great Barranco wall, and a traverse underneath Kilimanjaro’s southern ice field. In certain sections, this route is steeper than the Marangu and Rongai routes and physically more demanding, but is easier overall.
