Life changing trip to Kilimanjaro! Every part of the trip was amazing and very well organised - will be going on trips with this company for many years !! Thank you for such a life changing trip!

I would give Ollie 10 stars if I could. As a 53 year-old guy who got to mountaineering late in life, I can't recommend Ollie highly enough -- he just makes everything easy and great.

Unforgettable trip on the Kilimajaro. We made the trip with Oliver to the top of the Kilimanjaro. Absolute breathtaking and very special experience and adventure. Also very challenging and I was close to give up. But Oliver, the team and our group supported me very well, thus I finally made it.

I booked the Kilimanjaro Machame route and was always so well looked after, each day after a beautiful trek with breathtaking views they had the most delicious meals prepared, tea and snacks. The whole team at True Summit Adventures went above and beyond to look after us

I think of Kilimanjaro every day. It impacted my son Sterling and I greatly - there is just something so intangible about this life changing experience. Doing it with someone you love, especially a son or daughter, created life long memories.

Oliver is a great guide and has his heart in making everything work. My company has used True Summit for several excursions, and I joined the Kilimanjaro climb with my son which was not only epic but meticulously organised.

Great team and service. Great team, service and attention to detail. Oliver is like a hawk, always on top of things. Highly recommended. We just loved Kilimanjaro with True Summit - lifetime experience.
Michael S, UK
Oliver and his True Summit team are the best. I felt safe and well looked after at all times, and the experience was made for me by the True Summit team and the great group of people that embarked upon the challenge with me. Highly recommended expedition,

The fitter you arrive the better, but you don't have to be a superhero. The 7 day Machame Route requires you to walk 6-7 hours a day for 7 days in a row (and more on the summit night). If you can walk 15km on consecutive days, it's a good sign you're fit enough to climb Kili.
Most hikers feel the altitude to some extent, but because the 7 day Machame Route offers ample acclimatisation time you're only likely to experience mild symptoms such as a headache or nausea.
Absolutely not. Our oldest summitter so far was 64, but we are sure this can and will be beaten.
Steven, our chef is one of the best high altitude chefs anywhere in the world. The food is plentiful and consists largely of rice, pasta and potato dishes served with meat and vegetables. Fruit provides a perfect addition. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free dishes are available.
Kilimanjaro's forest lower slopes are warm and humid. Early days on this expedition therefore tend to be T-shirt weather during hiking hours. Beyond the treeline it gets cold, especially after dark, and you will need further protection. We provide a kit list detailing exactly what to bring.
Lots of time to get ready: we will be with you every step of the way.
