Best guide company in the world

Best trip I've ever been on. Virtually every step of the trip exceeded expectations, from the booking and prep process, transportation, hike/summit, and safari. These guys are professionals in every sense of the word. On summit day, a porter was assigned to each of us individually, and we all made it to the top easily and not a minute too soon to catch the sunrise. This is the kind of trip and the kind of company that changes your life. Do yourself a favor and book through Peak Planet.

LIFE-CHANGING TRIP!

I cannot recommend Peak Planet enough. They made for the most life-changing trip of our lives! We went as a group of 9 and luckily all 9 of us were able to summit — we truly couldn't have done it without the hospitality and support of the crew. Our guides were just amazing — Meshack, Maick, John, and Mr. B had confidence in us and truly felt like family. If you are looking for an unforgettable climb that is not only safe and comfortable but also incredibly fun and bonding, choose Peak Planet!

Awesome 9-day climb via the Lemosho Route

This was an awesome expedition, as conducted with guides Victor and Meshack. The accommodations, food, and keen awareness of providing a safe experience were all exceptional, and we were very surprised to experience such luxury at such an affordable price. The climb was challenging for me as a 71 year old. However, the patience exhibited by the guides and true dedication to assuring we were successful in reaching the summit safely, was outstanding. A company with high standards, reasonable pricing and a genuine respect to the local Tanzanians conducting the trip.

Peak Planet Freaking Rocks!

Everything was amazing. Guides were on top of everything, vitals were monitored and guides had a lot of altitude knowledge and could help in any situation that arose. Meals were delicious and filling, tents were very comfortable and I stayed warm even as a solo. Peak Planet wants to get you to the top and as long as it is safe to do so and your body can handle it, they will get you to the summit. Put your trust in them and you won't be disappointed.

An amazing experience and fantastic guide service A–Z

This was the trip of a lifetime! Peak Planet got everything, and I mean everything, right! I went solo on the 7 day Machame trip and my guide Mussouri and his group made me feel safe, encouraged and valued. The food was outstanding — three course meals so tasty, and I'm a picky eater with absolutely zero issues. I also did the 2 day Safari and loved every moment of it, from the Ngorongoro Crater to Lake Manyara. Peak Planet is the only guide service that I would ever use! These guys are just fantastic!

Trip of a lifetime

This was a bucket list trek. It truly was the best experience, an amazing achievement and the hardest thing I've ever done. The crew were so supporting and attentive to our wellbeing. The guides and the porters were so friendly and very well organised and acclimatised to the environment. Without poli poli… it would have been a very different experience. Thank you to all the team.

Standing on the roof of Africa

Realized a life long dream and summited Kilimanjaro with a brother and made some new friends along the way. Afterwards, explored the mighty Serengeti and all its wonders. Went with Peak Planet and could not recommend them more. Great people on all accounts and we would not have made it without them. I would absolutely recommend Peak Planet to anyone thinking of going.

Excellent Kilimanjaro experience with Peak Planet

We climbed Kilimanjaro via the Machame route in October on a private trip with Peak Planet. This was our second time climbing the mountain, and Peak Planet were outstanding from start to finish. The guides and porters were excellent, and health and safety was a priority throughout our journey to the summit — and we made it! The food, camping setup, and toilet facilities were far superior to our previous trip, and even the management of tips was handled professionally and transparently. A first-class experience!

The best outfitter on the mountain

We selected the longer Northern Circuit route to ensure altitude acclimatization. Superb porters, and service that could not have been better — prompt and cheerful. Observing the other trekking companies during our climb, it was obvious that Peak Planet was the best outfitter on the mountain.

Way beyond anything I expected

I've never been on a guided trip before and this was way beyond anything I expected. The effort made to care for us, keep us comfortable and well fed, and prepare us for a successful climb of Kilimanjaro exceeded everything I imagined. The entire staff was extremely helpful and made the trip a success.

So lucky we heard about Peak Planet

My husband and two of our friends did the 10-day Lemosho route in August. Peak Planet was recommended to us by another friend, so we did not do too much research beforehand — but we are so lucky we heard about them.

Private trek on the Northern Circuit

We booked a private trek with Peak Planet along the longest, 55-mile Northern Circuit, which has the highest success rate of all the routes. From booking to arrival and departure, the care on the mountain was exemplary.

Far surpassed my expectations

My now-wife and I recently completed our 8-day Rongai route climb of Kili with Peak Planet. These guys far surpassed my expectations for the trip. The communication was great from start to finish — no small thing when planning such a big trip.

Couldn't have asked for a better experience

Hiked the 8-day Lemosho route to Kilimanjaro in July 2024. I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful experience! We really lucked out with perfect weather and an amazing group of hikers who started as strangers.

Climb and safari — everything was perfect

Peak Planet is an amazing company. We used them for both our Kilimanjaro climb and safari — everything was perfect. The staff were all friendly and the equipment was high quality. I can't recommend them enough.

Trip of a lifetime

The climb was amazing and then came the Safari. This was also a 10/10 experience. We saw heaps of animals, the accommodation was outstanding. Highlight was being woken up by a hyena outside our tent. Although so many highlights, the lions, the lion kill, flamingos, mongoose, rhino, zebra, giraffe, hyrax, wildebeest and the smelly hippopotamus.

Kilimanjaro and safari

My friend and I climbed Kilimanjaro using the Northern Circuit route and then went on a 4 day safari. Peak Planet was amazing! All of the hotels and other accommodations were great. Everywhere we went the staff was very welcoming and ready to help us with anything. Our mountain and safari guides were very knowledgeable and took excellent care of us!

At 79 years of age I felt completely at ease

Peak Planet and its staff provided an outstanding climb to the summit of Kilimanjaro. We also took a 4 day safari that was comparably great. Equipment, focus on safety, and the well being of the clients was paramount to the organization. At 79 years of age I felt completely at ease primarily because of the staff in Tanzania and the USA.

Peak Planet provides peak service

Peak Planet did an outstanding job of organizing our climb up Kilimanjaro. It began with their responsiveness to our initial inquiries and continued through the guidance they provided in preparing for the adventure. It also organized a wonderful four day safari after the climb. Our group was uniformly impressed and can't recommend this company more highly.

An excellent team for our climb and safari

We signed up for a climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro followed by a 4 day safari in the Serengeti and Peak Planet did a fantastic job with both. The team was helpful, kind and encouraging. It was the experience of a lifetime and Peak Planet helped make it possible.

Outstanding

Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar were incredible. Peak Planet consistently undersold itself and its offering. They were astonishingly good. The hotel was great and the staff were warm and friendly. The guides were simply outstanding — there really aren't great words to describe how simply awesome they were.

They went and returned the painting I left behind

Just did the 9 day Northern Route, as well as the safari, and Zanzibar. Peak Planet was amazing from the very beginning, answering all my questions (of which there were a ton). On safari, my guide Dickson was excellent at spotting animals I absolutely would've missed. Lastly, Peak Planet went above and beyond to return my painting to me in Zanzibar that I had forgotten in the safari vehicle.

They got it right

I was in Tanzania for a month starting with a climb of Kilimanjaro then my wife joined me for a long safari before chilling on Zanzibar. Peak Planet put the whole thing together and it worked out great. I especially want to credit the climbing guides led by Davis. They got the whole team to the top including myself at 72 and another climber a year or two older.

I just wanted to thank Timuini for organising an amazing safari trip for us. He was just amazing — attention to detail, cared about safety first, and I felt really safe knowing that everything was organised to perfection.
