Tour Itinerary

Day 1: Arrival Day/Welcomes to Tanzania

Arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), where our representative will meet you and transfer to the hotel (see the description below). It provides all the essentials for a comfortable stay, such as: cozy rooms, Internet access, hot water, a swimming pool, and a helpful staff. In the evening, an orientation session with our tour coordinators will ensure that you are ready to begin the spectacular Meru climb.

Day 2: Momella Gate to Miriakamba Huts

In the morning you will go to Arusha National Park, and then straight to the trailhead. The ride takes approximately 2.5-3 hours. You will experience multiple encounters with giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes and other.

 

At Momella Gate the guides will arrange the entry permit formalities, and you will start trekking to Miriakamba Huts. Wild animals (warthogs, zebras, monkeys, antelopes and, sometimes, elephants) are likely to be seen on the way.

Hot lunch will be served upon arrival to Miriakamba Huts. There you may rest or explore the surroundings.

Upon reaching the Saddle Hut Camp, those who are willing and energetic enough may reach the Little Meru Peak, further boosting your acclimatization transition.

Our team will serve hot lunch and dinner in the camp.

Day 4: Saddle Huts to Socialist Peak and to Miriakamba Hut
