Meet our professional English speaking  guide at your hotel in Moshi/Arusha , then drive to West Kilimanjaro, the journey takes you through a forest reserve, where you can look out for blue monkeys and Colobus Monkeys in the trees. Your hike through the beautifully rugged landscape of Shira Plateau starts at 3,500 m to 3962 m above sea level, making it the highest plateau in the world .Get out of the car, lace up your shoes and take in the sounds, smells, and colors of Tanzania’s stunning wilderness. Along different trails and accompanied by the guide,  you can enjoy views of Kibo, Kilimanjaro’s highest peak, and its northern glaciers, when the weather permits. The vast plains of neighboring Amboseli National Park in Kenya and the deep gorge of the Simba River contrast the views of the world’s highest free-standing mountain. When you reach the northern rim of Shira Crater, take a quick stop at different observation points and see the volcanic cones dotting the landscape below. Hike at your own pace and enjoy a picnic lunch under the open sky along the way. It’s a moderate hike and you don’t need to be an athlete to be able to enjoy it. However, at 3,500m the air is thinner, so pace your step, enjoy the untouched landscapes and the presence of the mighty Kilimanjaro. After a 4h hike – or earlier, if your legs get tired – we take you back to your Hotel with good memories of Kilimanjaro Day Hike.
