Our group climbs feature the 7 day Marangu, 8 day Machame routes. The arrival dates and departure dates are posted below . These climbs avoid the rainy seasons, iare limited to only eight climbers. We don't believe in creating large trekking parties as it detracts from the experience. Keeping the party small creates an intimate setting on the mountain, but more importantly ensures proper attention for each and every climber.

The following are our pre-scheduled climb dates, mainly for our solo hikers who wish to join another party.  If the dates below are not convenient for you please contact us to arrange a private expedition for you. Our trek departure dates are not only set, but can depart on a daily basis, subject to availability.

Your in ward flight should arrive the day before the date in the left column or earlier, and your outward flight should depart the day after the date in the second column or later. Many climbers will add a safari or survival course with us after their climb. Please bear this in mind when planning your flights.
