The guides were top-notch. All of them were just fantastic from their relationships with us to their professionalism on the trail.

So many crew members, great hospitality, health checks, and clear communication assured that we were all able to summit the mountain. I can’t say enough great things about the company.

From the booking to the tipping ceremony & everything in between, it was fantastic.”

Bosco (Head Guide) and Kennedy (Asst Head Guide) were best in class. Ivan Charles is ready to advance to become at least an Assistant Head Guide.

We absolutely loved our climb! Caspar and Ema were total pros and ensured our safety and well-being during the entire eight days.

Overall it was a great experience. Guides, crew, food, gear were all great. I enjoyed the service provided by everyone on the crew, which added to the beautiful scenery of the hike.

MSuri, Thomas and Barraka were amazing guides; each of them spent time getting to know the guests while always keeping our health, comfort and welfare as their top priority.

Thomas taught us about the mountain, the flora/ fauna, the geology etc and also provided… Read more “All the best to Peak Planet, we have so enjoyed working with you and our Kili experience could not have been better.”

Msuri and his team were fabulous! He exuded a quiet confidence that let me know we were in very good hands for the climb. I don’t believe there could be a better guide on the mountain. After the climb we went to Zanzibar and everything went smoothly. I will strongly encourage anyone looking to climb… Read more “I will strongly encourage anyone looking to climb Kilimanjaro to use Peak Planet.”

Caspar and assistant guide Simon were very professional and very knowledgeable about geology, plants, animals, etc. Porters were all very good, too.

Davis was OUTSTANDING! We would not have all made it if it wasn’t for his outstanding leadership. Eric was fantastic as well! His enthusiasm, both as our server/waiter and as the leader of dance/song, was contagious.

It was always evident that the guides made our health and safety their number one priority. The seven days going up made the summit day and return that much easier. We had confidence in the decisions the guides made and their descriptions of each segment of the route. Our guides and the planned nutrition provided… Read more “It was always evident that the guides made our health and safety their number one priority.”

The whole team surpassed our groups’ expectations. It seemed that just when they were offering the best possible service and attitudes, it would get even better! This was my second time to bring a large group to climb Kili and I plan to bring more groups in the future with Peak Planet.

Overall this was an amazing adventure surrounded by even more amazing people. Your “ground” crew in Tanzania is bar none professionals. I have been on numerous guided adventures and your team in Tanzania were amongst the elite. Their attention to detail and singular focus on our success on this climb was remarkable. Msuri and Stephen(our… Read more “Thank you for an amazing adventure with amazing people!”

The leaders and porters were the best!!! No complaints. They, in my opinion, are the true ambassadors of Peak Planet. They were committed and represented their country and their company with great pride. They are truly the face of Peak Planet. Will forever be talking about them and their commitment.

Lead guide Casper was remarkable and a truly safety focused leader. His care for our personal safety as well as our preparation for summit night could not have been better. He was in many ways a captain and father for me. My appreciation of him will be life long … I am 69 and could… Read more “Safety is a real deal with the Peak Planet organization”

Thank you SO much. The entire thing was a magical experience.

Overall, the climb/experience was great. Davis, Clarence, Rama, Rebman were all extremely attentive and always on the lookout. With their experience levels, we practically had multiple head guides!

Our lead guide Davis, and the rest of his team were excellent. We very much enjoyed all the people we had on our team. The 9 day Northern Circuit was excellent as was the hike and camping accommodations.

I thought our Chief guide, Davis, did an outstanding job managing our entire trekking party. There was great camaraderie amongst all the porters, all the trekkers, and all the guides. The group was in synch every day, and that all starts and ends with Davis’ leadership. I may never climb Kilimanjaro again, but if I… Read more “I may never climb Kilimanjaro again, but if I did I would go with Peak Planet again.”

Very pleased with the overall experience. Caspar and his team were amazing (knowledgeable, well-prepared, friendly, helpful, and encouraging)!

The number two priority was for us to have an amazing experience and successfully reach our goal of summiting Kilimanjaro! The Porters were just… Read more “We saw many outfitters on the mountain and we were always proud to be with Peak Planet!”

Our trip was so successful because of the experienced guides that we had. The skill levels, experience, and age of the trekkers varied widely, and that took lots of well-experienced leadership to guide and control the pace of the group rather than individuals going astray. The only information I underestimated was the total preparation and… Read more “Our trip was so successful because of the experienced guides that we had.”

Our 4-Day safari was wonderful. Our trips to Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti National park offered many of Tanzania’s beautiful scenery, animals and people. What made this a trip of a lifetime was our guide, Walter Temba. Walter was kind, informative and attentive to all of our needs. He knew where to take… Read more “Our 4-Day safari was wonderful.”

Amazing crew. Literally, everyone was wonderful from Caspar, Emmanuel, and Joseph on down to some of the sweet porters like Lucas. Just a lovely group of folks.

Peak Planet did a fantastic job. The cook needs to be on one of those cooking shows, were the master chefs have to carry up their gear etc. and compete with the cook we had on our climb. The whole crew was top notch. It was a grand but tiring experience, my suggestion is to… Read more “Peak Planet did a fantastic job!”

Special mention to the excellent care and service provided by Casper (guide), Emanuel (assistant guide), Joseph (tent person and also helped with summit) and Mweta (waiter).

We were a bit cold at night and were using rented sleeping bags. Not sure if that had anything to do with it. Otherwise, everything was fantastic.

By and Far, THE BEST Guides! I watched our guides SAVE clients from other companies without any hesitation!!

Our guides were excellent… Davis on the climb, Walter on safari. We would not have made it up and down without Davis’ flexibility, support, and adaptation. Davis really worked to ensure that the group all made it to the summit. And we did. On safari, Walter was knowledgeable and easy to work with. We saw the”Big… Read more “Our guides were excellent”

Staff was terrific… from start to finish. Dana responded to emails quickly and thoroughly. Ben was informative in each briefing and Davis was encouraging and supportive throughout both treks (Mt. Meru and Mt. Kilimanjaro). The only thing I would change would be to shorten the duration of both descents (Meru and Kilimanjaro). Logistically, this may… Read more “Staff was terrific… from start to finish.”

I loved everything – from the excellent and prompt communication while booking, to the quality gear and services (we LOVED the food), to the amazing guides and porters. I’m telling everyone they have to do Kilimanjaro whether they like hiking or not, and they have to do it with Peak Planet.

When I finally decided to turn this dream of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro into a reality I spent several months researching various companies at different price ranges. After narrowing it down to 6 companies associated with KPAP, I ultimately chose to go with Peak Planet. I was impressed with several aspects of their company such as… Read more “Mount Kilimanjaro, Peak Planet, and Team Caspar stole a piece of my heart.”

We couldn’t be more pleased with our Peak Planet experience.

The entire week was an experience of… Read more “You have a great team with Davis and his crew!”

If you are considering Kilimanjaro, I have two pieces of advice. One-this mountain is challenging and pre-climb conditioning will be tested. There will be unexpected challenges on the mountain. Like many climbers, this was the hardest physical and mental activity that I have attempted. Secondly-Go with Peak Planet. The summit rate is > 90%. Along… Read more “Peak Planet stood out from the other outfitters”

I was thoroughly impressed with our guides (Davis – lead; Magnus – assistant guide) and the rest of the crew. I would highly recommend the guides.

Not only are the porters and guides the nicest people you could hope to meet, but what they manage to create, cook and build for you up a mountain is quite unbelievable.

August was a brilliant guide – confident, calm, in control and experienced. I can’t speak highly enough of him. The tents were the best on the mountain and food was superb. I couldn’t have had a better trip – thanks to the entire team at Peak Planet – one very happy customer!

I climbed with the best guides, assistant guides and porters. All the guides were motivating, encouraging and most importantly made sure that we were always safe. They never let us walk alone. They were also very professional and experienced.

Overall, it was a great experience and I had all the information needed before the trip and during the trip. Absolutely outstanding guides, porters, helpers, cook !!

Our trip is over and we all summited Uhuru Peak – thank you for the great support and service. I just want to also say we had a great guide Joshua – he was amazing and we received amazing service!

I had a really great time. Thanks for the trip of a lifetime.

Both my husband and I are physicians and we were both very impressed by the medical knowledge and experience of our guides. They kept us safe and healthy throughout the hike.

The trip far exceeded my expectations! The guides, chef, porters are all amazing! It was a very positive and exhilarating experience!
