I had a successful and fun trip to Kilimanjaro. The Truly Swahili team was responsive and accommodating throughout the planning process and shaped the trip exactly how I wanted.

Everything about the logistics went smoothly: I got a warm welcome at the airport and a cheerful send-off at the end, all the transfers ran on time, and the hotel recommendations were spot on.

The trek itself, especially summit night, was challenging and rewarding. The team was fantastic: clearly experienced, efficient, and genuinely friendly.

I'll happily work with Truly Swahili again the next time I travel to East Africa.
