an ancient elephant migratory route
between the Aberdare Mountains and
Mt Kenya National park, and is

elephants, buffalo, rhinos and more
from the safety of four viewing
decks and a rooftop platform.

ground level. History buffs can get
animal counts for years past.

about missed sightings, even into
the early hours of the morning. An
optional buzzer in the rooms alerts
the guests when a spectacle is
unfolding at the waterhole. Game
drives and a lecture about Treetops
are also available to the guests.
This lodge-on-stilts is as
space-efficient on the inside as it
is unassuming on the outside. Trees

Easily known as the
"Coca-Cola route", Marangu is by far the
most popular route to the summit of
Kilimanjaro. This could partly be as a
result of the fact that the Marangu is the
least expensive route, but more so, perhaps
the fact that it is possible to do the
Marangu route in 6 days, thereby getting to
the summit one day earlier than on the
Machame route. It is the easiest route to
Kilimanjaro Uhuru Peak but least scenic.

Sometimes called the
Whisky Route. This is a popular route up
steep paths through magnificent forests to
gain a ridge leading through the moorland
zones to the Shira Plateau. It then
traverses beneath the glaciated precipices
of the Southern Ice fields to join the
Barafu Route to the summit. This is probably
the most beautiful route up Kilimanjaro. All
your equipment and supplies are portered and
a cook prepares all your meals. Where
accommodation on the Marangu route is in
huts, the Machame route offers strictly
tents only. This makes Machame route better
suited to the slightly more adventurous
hiker, rewarding him with a scenic splendor
such as not seen on the Marangu route. The
Machame route is normally completed in a
minimum of 6 days.

Rongai Route This
remote and less frequently used route is the
second easiest route to Kilimanjaro. The
approach to the mountain is from the
less-forested north side and the descent is
by the Marangu Route. There are several
variations, the one described below is a
longer route taking in Mawenzi Tarn.

|
|
|
|
|
Umbwe Route The Umbwe
route is one of the shortest routes to the
Southern Glaciers and the Western Breach. It
is probably the most scenic, non-technical
route on Kilimanjaro. It is quite taxing,
primarily due to the relatively fast ascent
to higher altitude, but the rewards are
plentiful.

|
|
|
Lemosho Route This is
the longest and most remote route to
Kilimanjaro. After beautiful forests and
moorlands it crosses the Shira Plateau to
meet up with the Machame Route. Groups may
be accompanied on the first day by an armed
ranger as the forests around the Lemosho
Glades are rich in buffalo, elephant and
other game.

At 5,199 m, Mount
Kenya is the second highest peak in Africa. It
is an ancient extinct volcano, during whose
period of activity (3.1–2.6 million years ago)
it is thought to have risen to 6,500 m. Mount
Kenya is one of the most impressive landscapes
in East Africa. There are three main climbing
routes, which penetrate the forest and the
moorland - Naromoru, Sirimon and Chogoria.

Kilimanjaro Climb Expedition tips and advice
to follow:
>Find a good tour operator: You can
only climb Kilimanjaro with an organized
trek and along established routes, so you
have to go with an expert operator. The
Kilimanjaro climbing operators vary from
excellent to downright negligent so be
selective and try not to be too cheap if you
want to have the most enjoyable climb
experience. you can count on
Kilimanjaroclimbexpedition.com
>Book in advance: If you intend to
climb Kilimanjaro, be sure to book in
advance. This will enable you to go in high
season, which is January-March and
September-October. High Season is a good
time to go simply because the weather
condition is safest for Kilimanjaro
climbing.
>Get fit & prepare well: Break in
your hiking boots and walk the dog; climb
stairs; hike some hills with a pack on.
Walking is the best way to prepare yourself
for the long hike up Kilimanjaro to ensure
you have right fitness. You need to build up
stamina. It's a good idea to get a basic
medical check-up before you go. You don't
want to be dealing with an ingrown toenail
or worse at 18,000 feet. Travel insurance
that includes medical is also a must.
>Pack well: Pack light but make
sure you have everything you need to deal
with altitude and variation in temperatures.
Don't worry about carrying it yourself since
a porter/s will take up to 30lbs (15kg) of
your personal gear in a duffel bag. You can
rent some equipment and clothing locally but
you may end up with teeny sleeping bags and
a fraying pink jacket. See our recommended
climb checklist.
>Choose your convenient route: Make
sure your hike is at least 6-7 days to
provide the much needed Kilimanjaro
commodity, acclimatization if you want to
have maximum success. Any shorter and you
will not be properly acclimatized. Routes
vary in degree of difficulty, traffic and
scenic beauty. The least difficult routes
are Marangu and Rongai; the more difficult
routes are Machame, Umbwe and Lemosho. The
longer routes may have more difficult hiking
but you'll be more acclimatized and your
chances of reaching the summit are therefore
higher. The longer western routes also allow
you to start your summit day at a more
reasonable hour. For details on each route
see route descriptions.
>Dealing with altitude: Pace
yourself; you will hear the Swahili phrase
"pole pole" - slowly slowly, heed it well.
Drink lots of water about 4-5 liters a day
is recommended. Luckily the mountain streams
after the first day are good to drink and
naturally cooled. Walk high and sleep low.
Take a walk to a higher elevation during the
day and come back down to sleep. Consult a
doctor before you go and get some medication
to prevent altitude sickness. Also make sure
your guides are carrying the proper medical
equipment such as oxygen, radios and a
recompression bag to deal with altitude
sickness if it arises.
>Reaching the summit: The hardest
part of the trek. Pace yourself, be
determined, and you will reach the Uhuru
peak. The final ascent is usually timed so
you can watch the sunrise over the crater
and distant plains. Enjoy the view take a
few photos and get back down before you get
too affected by the high altitude. Take a
well earned nap.
Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania stands at
19,340 feet (5895 m) and is Africa's tallest
mountain. The attraction of hiking up Mount
Kilimanjaro is that it's not a technical
climb so no equipment such as oxygen and
ropes are necessary. But it's no walk in the
park. As you you'll see from the images
below, trekkers make their way through 5
climatic zones before reaching the summit.
Weather changes from moment to moment and
the high altitude wreaks havoc on the body
and mind...read

East Africa travel destinations that we
include in our catalogue include Kenya,
Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda. East Africa is
home to the safari, since this is where the
African savannah is at its best and the
plains are filled with wildlife. Hikers also
come to East Africa to enjoy the mountains,
including Mount Kilimanjaro (Tanzania),
Mount Kenya, Mount Longonot and Mount Meru.
The East African coastline has some of the
best beaches in the world, including the
famous spice island of Zanzibar.
Kenya safari:
Kenya is the original safari country where
the 'safari' (Swahili for travel) begun. In
Kenya, you can mix the idyllic experience of
a tropical beach vacation on the warm Indian
Ocean with an East African wild animal
safari expedition. Combining the two makes
for a unique holiday. Part of your vacation
is filled with excitement as you observe
African wildlife at close quarters, while
part is spent relaxing and soaking up the
sun on a sandy beach.
A beach and safari break in Kenya is an
exotic getaway from the daily routines of
city life. It also makes for the ideal
honeymoon for newly weds, with time to relax
as well as a touch of adventure.
East Africa, including Kenya, does not yet
have a high profile as a holiday destination
in America, but is growing in reputation as
a unique vacation experience. Europeans, and
the British in particular, have less
distance to travel to Africa, and have been
been the mainstay of Kenyan tourism,
attracted by the unique mix of the tropical
beach and African safari vacation. Luxury
vacations have become more affordable as
European currencies have strengthened,
prompting investment in Kenyan tourist
facilities.
Tanzania safari:
Safari in Tanzania is a worth undertaking.
We are the original safari company offering
quality Tanzania safaris to Ngorongoro
Crater, animal migration tours in Serengeti,
Climbing Mt Kilimanjaro, Tanzania
honeymoon vacations in Zanzibar Island,
family holidays in spice island and luxury
beach resorts of pemba island. A variety of
accommodation in Tanzania is offered from
lodge, hotels and safari tented camps...Read

The best time to go for an African safari is
when the animals are easy to find and in
dense numbers. Deciding when to go on safari
depends on what country you would like to
visit and when you are able to plan your
trip. Seasons differ in East Africa so you
can really plan a great safari for almost
every month of the year, if you are flexible
about where you want to go to.....:
Kenya:
The best time to go on safari in Kenya and
experience a huge density and diversity of
wildlife is when the annual migration of
millions of wildebeest, zebra and gnu's
descend on the Mara plains with predators
close behind. The best time to see this
wildlife spectacle is from July to October.
Other parks in Kenya are also excellent and
the best time to visit these would be during
the dry seasons - January through March and
July through October.
With the scarcity of water during the dry
seasons, the animals tend to gather in more
concentrated numbers around permanent water
holes, rivers and lakes, so they are easier
to find. The vegetation is also less lush
which simply means that viewing animals from
a distance is easier.
Tanzania:
If you want to see the Great Migration
unfold, head to Tanzania's northern parks;
the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. The best time
to witness the annual migration is probably
February - March when the wildebeest and
zebra have their young. Not only can you
enjoy seeing baby animals, but the predators
are at the highest number too. Because the
herds also concentrate in the south of the
Serengeti, it's easy to plan your wildlife
viewing in that area and find a safari
company that offers lodging there.
June to November is Tanzania's dry season
and is the best time to visit all the parks
(and you can always hop over to Kenya's
Masai Mara to witness the Great Wildebeest
Migration during this time). Tanzania's
Southern Parks are perfect to visit during
this time since the animals tend to
congregate around permanent water and it
isn't so hot and humid.
All of Tanzania's parks suffer from the
rains which generally fall from March to May
in the North, and from November to May in
the South and West. Roads get washed out and
given the sheer size of Tanzania's parks,
the animals tend to spread out, and this
makes wildlife viewing less satisfying (if
you're looking for sheer numbers of
animals).
December through March can get quite hot and
humid, especially in Western and Southern
Tanzania which makes it a little
uncomfortable to spend a lot of time in the
bush.
If you want to add a hike up Mount
Kilimanjaro to your safari, the best time to
hike is January - March and September -
October.

Masai
Mara - Serengeti wildebeest migration:
Wildebeest migration to and back from Serengeti into
the Maasai Mara is the single most popular wildlife
spectacle in Kenya. The wildebeest migration is such
a phenomenon it involves movement of over 1 million
animals crossing plains and rivers in the Mara
migration. River crossings are the most spectacular
where the wildebeest of
Mara jump into rivers full of crocodiles and surging
currents. The wildebeest is feted as the clown of
the Savannah. Also known as a gnu, the animal has a
structure resembling a young horse with a heavily
built frontal shoulders and chest and a slender
posterior. Its legs are so slender it’s intriguing
how it supports the proportionately larger body
frame. The ‘clown’ title results from its unusual
behavior considered to other bovids, for example a
gnu herd will usually scatter in different
directions when attacked by a lion.

Lamu Town began life as a 14th century Swahili
settlement. But the island has seen many
visitors and influences, including Portuguese
explorers, Turkish traders and the Omani Arabs.
Despite all these influences, Lamu developed its
own particular culture which has ultimately
endured. The island is a beautiful place of
rolling dunes and endless beaches, where tiny
villages nestle among coconut and mango
plantations and lateen sailed dhows ply the
waters. Dense mangrove forests fringe the

Mount Kenya: Mount Kenya National Park
Mount Kenya plays a crucial role in the life of
the country being Kenya's single most important
permanent watershed and her largest forest
reserve. The fertile soils of its lower slopes
also sustain the growth of the nation's richest
farmlands whilst much of its vegetation is
globally unique. In recent years, however, the
