I have just returned from an advetnture of a life time facilitated by Adidasi and his team of cool friendly tour guides and porters.We succesfully summited 'Kili' in 6 days via the Lemosho trail and it was unforgetable expirience.

Adidas was a total proffessional and went beyound above his duty to ensure we had the holliday/expedition of life time.The tour guides and porters were knwolegable and likeable guys with a great attitude and fun,positive personalities.Each morning and at the end of each day whilist walking up 'Kili'the guides and porters would set the tone and feel of the day by dancing and singing a range of songs in honor of the mountain and the oportunity to climb.This was the high light of day and we looked forward to "jamming"along with the team.

It was fantastic for team and moral and team building!!!Other groups appered quite envious and took photos and videos to capture the moment.

Summit night was difficult but nothing harder then you would expect,but Chiefs tours where there every step of the way!Post "Kili" Adidas done every thing in his power ensure we had holliday of a life time and he trully is honorable and fantastic bloke he took care of all our concerns when in country and we didnt to worry about anything!"Hakuna Matata"

Tank you for an amaizing trip!:-

We had such a good time on our trip up Kilimanjaro. It was hard work, but Adidas and his team were absolutely fantastic. Very supportive, pole pole, up for a laugh and a joke. We will treasure the memories from our trip, and we're still repeating some of our favourite catchphrases! Adidas and his team were lovely from start to finish and couldn't have done more to help us have a trip of a lifetime. Highly recommend.

I made an excellent decision by choosing to Climb Kilimanjaro with Chief Tours for the following four reasons:

First, in regards to "social responsibility" and the treatment of the crew (food and lodging), after spending 6 days climbing with Chief Tours, I can testify that Chief Tours meets or exceeds other tour operators.

Second, unlike many of the Kilimanjaro operators, Chief Tours is a Tanzanian company. Therefore, instead of losing a majority of the profit to a head office in Europe, America, or Australia, the profit goes toward developing the local community by way of better wages for Chief Tours employees.

Third, Octait (my guide) was exceptional. He knew all of the short-cuts, and ensured that I was well rested and hydrated at all times.

Fourth, everyday I was served a wide array of fresh and delicious foods. The foods included: Beef, Fish, Chicken, Mango, Pineapple, Avocado, Cassava, and many more.
