GENERAL OVERVIEW | 7-DAY KILIMANJARO HIKING Via MACHAME ROUTE
7-Day Kilimanjaro Hiking Via Machame Route: Embark on a journey of a lifetime with KILINGE ADVENTURES as we invite you to conquer Africa's highest peak, Kilimanjaro, through the legendary Machame Route. In this excerpt, we unveil the allure of our 7-day expedition, blending adventure, expertise, and unparalleled service to ensure an unforgettable climb. From the lush rainforests to the awe-inspiring summit, join us as we delve into the essence of Kilimanjaro's Machame Route and why KILINGE ADVENTURES stands as the premier choice for your ultimate hiking adventure.
The 7 Days Machame route, also known as the “Whiskey” route (because compared to the other routes, Marangu, for example, nicknamed the ‘Coca-Cola’ route, it’s one of the tougher climbs), is one of the most popular routes on Kilimanjaro. Due to its high success rate (90% for a 7 Days Machame Route trek), it is one of the better routes to aid acclimatization. The views on this route are incredible and you also get the added challenge of the Great Barranco Wall. If reaching Kilimanjaro’s summit is your number one priority, then the Machame route will give you one of the best shots at this.
Before taking 7 Days Machame Route Trekking, we always recommend you have at least 1 day in town before starting your trek. This gives you time to rest, relax and prepare. On this day we make sure you meet your guide(s) so that they are able to check all your gear, we can rent anything else that you require and you have the opportunity to ask them any questions you may have on 7 Days Machame Route.
If you are not pushed for time, we highly recommend you to take this route. The Machame route itself is quite undulating giving you a good variety of altitudes each day. With 7 days Machame Route itinerary you can take things a notch slower, giving you more time to relax and enjoy the scenery and of course a better chance of reaching the summit. If you don’t have previous experience of trekking at altitude then this is the itinerary for you.

The trek was extremely well organised with the guides and porters ensuring that all our needs were met and to make the climb as enjoyable as possible.

The food was great and the tents and other equipment were top quality. Overall, an amazing trek from start to finish and an unforgettable journey that I will remember for life!

Amazing Tanzania with locals – Kilinge Adventures is a very reliable local tour company. Thomas is a very professional guy and he organized everything perfectly. We did a full 6 days road trip across 4… Read more National Parks: from Arusha we visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Manyara. I have only one suggestion: it could be a nice idea to skip Manyara (except the lunch on the top of the hill with a super beautiful view) and have one day more in the other amazing parks.
Charles, the guide who drove us during that week, has been amazing: he is a very professional guide, friendly, reliable and very flexible.
Therefore, I can definitely recommend to travel with them (they are very flexible as well: they can propose from luxury to mid-range to budget tours, with some good advice in order to save some money).

Great Experience! – Our group of 4 took the 7-day Machame route for Kilimanjaro with Kilinge Adventures in February 2024. Despite the challenging weather on the summit day (super strong wind, snow, hail,… Read more low visibility), we all made it to the top, thanks to the help of the entire team! Our guides Victor and Baraka were very experienced, attentive and always encouraging. Our chef Joseph cooked nice warm food to make sure we got enough energy for the hike. The porters were always helpful whenever we needed something, ensuring our tents were strong and secure in the crazy windy days, helping us dry the wet gears after the rain, etc. We couldn’t have summited without each and every one of them. Thanks Kilinge Adventures for a memorable experience in hiking Kilimanjaro!

My trip to Kilimanjaro exceeded all expectations. Even though we had to get through some bad weather in the first two days the tour guide ensured everyone stayed positive and… Read more motivated. The food was great and the guides and team done everything they could to make the trip as comfortable as possible.
Out team all made the top of the mountain which was great and our tour guide Thomas went the extra mile and met the whole team for dinner when we made it back down from the mountain.
All in all a great trip and highly recommended!

In August 2019 my husband and I spent our honeymoon climbing up the Kilimanjaro. Our guide was Thomas and he made it an unforgettable experience.
The most important thing –… Read more we always felt save with him. He tested our O2-saturation levels and pulse every evening and made sure we were medically well. When my knee was letting me down he kinda carried me half way down the mountain.
This safety was paired with a very light way of being a nice company at the way up to the top. Him and the crew always kept motivating with singing tanzanian songs and teaching the cool swahili stuff "Poa kichizi kama ndizi ndani ya friji" 🙂
But on the other hand he made sure to have a great couple-time including taking a lot of photos at the stunning sceneries on the way up to the top.
So all in all it was an unforgettable experience! Thanks again to Thomas and the team for making our honeymoon this special!!

The tour was enjoyable with beautiful marangu waterfall view though I found the waters too cold to play around in ,and while climbing down to where the falls were,John kept us entertained with small tales about life in general.John had the right mixture of kindness,friendliness, fun and professionalism.
I recommend Kilinge Adventures for the perfectly planned day But. Will definitely call them generalize for the next Safari trip without hesitation!

If you are going to climb kilimanjaro do it with these guys without a doubt!

Kilinge Adventures deserves more than 5 stars. I have returned from successfully trekking: the 7 days Machame Route with my 3 buddies. We booked with Kilinge Adventures because they were… Read more reasonably priced and also had very many positive accolades on TripAdvisor. Trekking with the Kilinge Adventures climbing crew under chief guide Rama and Thomas was an incredible experience. They led us carefully in a comfortable speed through the different camp teaching us about the mountain, perseverance, story of Tanzania and even bits of Swahili. I soon realized that every section of the trek took a lot of planning to ensure that we had everything that we needed at that particular time. I cannot forget to mention our porters who worked very hard. Those supplies and equipment bags were heavy and these guys hauled everything including the rubbish. Private the camp cook is another fine gentleman! Honestly his culinary skills are second to none and this trek would not have been the same without him. Kilimanjaro gets harder as you go higher, thank you Rama and Thomas for the motivation and support that pushed us to the summit. You guys rock!

In Octobre 2019, I climbed the Mount Kilimanjaro via the Machame Route (7days) and our guide was Thomas. He is very experienced, reliable, extremly helpful and we had a lot… Read more of fun with him and the rest of our entire team. He took care of us on every step during the whole trek and I will always remember his powerful singing with his beautiful deep voice – especially through the summit night, his singing made it much easier for us to reach the roof of africa. He is a really good motivator and a great photographer.
If you want to be in safe and good hands contact Thomas at Kilinge Adventures. He is the best. Thomas, thank you so much for this experience that I will keep forever.
