Our Top Reviews
"Tusker Trail is your safest and top option for Kilimanjaro" - "It became very clear to us as the week went on the respect that the Tusker Trail guides receive from the other guides and porters. It was clear to me from the actions of our guides that respect was well earned!!" --"Greenwiz8"
"Amazing trip!!" - "The tents were tall enough that you could stand up even in over 6 feet, and they fully blocked the wind which could be heavy at times. We were the only ones at the top as they timed it to miss the crowds; a true gift to be there by ourselves! Their attention to us and the ability to adjust, was remarkable!" -- "BethA."
"Trip of a Lifetime!"- "I just recently got back from climbing the Machame route with Tusker and it was a trip I will never forget! It was very apparent on the mountain that our amenities & services far surpassed other groups.Their new tents were huge and very comfortable.I am 6 feet tall and was able to stand in the tent easily!" --"Alex C."
