Africa is alluring. This continent brings to mind wild animals and safaris, unique deeply-rooted cultures from ancient, medieval to modern, deserts, jungles, lakes, volcanos & mountain ranges. Here, out in Africa we guide from the desert & jungle floor through a wide variety of ecosystems to the summits of such widely known peaks as Kilimanjaro, Mt Kenya and trek through the rugged Atlas Mountains in Morocco. Wild animal safaris are an added touch to some of these high mountain adventures.
In Hemingway's words, Kilimanjaro is "as wide as all the world, great, high, and unbelievably white in the sun." This stunning peak with it's snowcapped summit rises 19,341 feet over East Africa's shimmering plains. Kilimanjaro is the perfect place to experience climbing a high-altitude peak without needing years of experience or training. Our expedition travels away from the crowds by climbing the Umbwe Route. This experience can be followed by a thrilling safari in private camps and luxury lodges in the Serengeti ecosystem.
