Over view
Climb Kilimanjaro and Serengeti Ngorongoro is a combination tour of wildlife safari and mountain trekking for 8 days.
The Climbs commence through Marangu Route 5 days of trekking Mount Kilimanjaro, the world's highest free-standing mountain and also Africa's highest peak at 5895m. Although fitness and health are required, as the finishing point is a bit challenging, the Marangu route is the easiest way up to and from the summit among other routes and does not require more technical and experienced climbers.
Accommodations on the climb will be in wooded huts. The tour continues and takes the guests to visit and explore two of the northern parks of Tanzania: Serengeti Park and Ngorongoro Crater. All the parks are home to small and large animals, including birds and reptiles; your accommodation is based on camping or lodges.
