Our journey began in Moshi, where we set off on the challenging Lemosho Route. Our guide ensured our safety while providing invaluable insights into the mountain's ecology and history. The scenic vistas and camaraderie among our group made the climb truly memorable.
After conquering Kilimanjaro, we went on a 3-day safari from Arusha to Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Led by experienced guides, we marveled at the abundant wildlife and stunning landscapes. Witnessing the Great Migration in Serengeti and the vastness of Ngorongoro Crater left us in awe.
