A spice farm morning, an afternoon dhow cruise, then a full day snorkeling the reefs off Mnemba.
Three days for people who'd rather do something than lie still. A working spice farm outside Stone Town in the morning — cardamom, clove, nutmeg, tasted off the tree — a traditional dhow out along the coast at sunset, and a full day snorkeling the reef off Mnemba Atoll, which is as good as Indian Ocean snorkeling gets. Groups are capped at eight so the boat never feels crowded.

Local guides have been at the heart of Kilimanjaro since Hans Meyer's first ascent in 1889, and our family has guided here since the 1970s. Priscus, our owner and guide, first climbed at 14, worked as a porter for seven years, and has now summited more than 350 times.
Every guide is Wilderness First Responder (WFR) certified. We check your health every morning and evening with the Lake Louise Score and oxygen saturation readings. We carry emergency oxygen on every climb, and helicopter rescue is available with your travel insurance.
There is no income outflow. Everything is run in Tanzania, with Tanzanian guides, so your money supports local jobs, families, and communities.
We were the first to introduce Kilimanjaro biking expeditions in the early 2000s, from scenic rides around the mountain to cycling all the way to the summit.
