Kilimanjaro - Machame Route & Zanzibar Adventure

Moshi → Zanzibar 12 days Up to 12

About this trip

This trip splits into two very different halves: a multi-day climb up Kilimanjaro via the Machame route, camping as you go, followed by a stretch of downtime on Zanzibar's beaches.

Guides lead you up the mountain through changing landscapes and altitudes, with the summit as the goal. Once that's done, you fly to Zanzibar for a complete change of pace, starting with a spice plantation visit and moving into open beach days.

The island section is loosely structured, giving you room to dive, snorkel, or just rest after the climb.

What you'll do

  • Trek to the summit of Kilimanjaro via the Machame route
  • Camp on the mountain across multiple days at altitude
  • Visit a spice plantation in Zanzibar
  • Free time on Zanzibar's beaches
  • Optional scuba diving and snorkelling in Zanzibar
Good to know
  • The Kilimanjaro leg is physically demanding — multiple days of trekking and camping at altitude
  • Pace changes sharply after the climb, with unstructured beach days in Zanzibar
  • Fully guided throughout, with a lead guide and support team on the mountain
