Our Kilimanjaro team climbers have arrived safely in Tanzania, and they are already getting out and about before they begin their trek up the Machame Route. This team climb is led by Star Guide Pega Shera, who is known for his technical skills, patience, and thoughtfulness while guiding.

Pega brings 7x Everest summits, 2x Cho Oyu summits, and 2x Lhotse summits to the table, which means this expedition is a unique opportunity for our climbers to not only tag one of the Seven Summits but also learn from one of the best guides in the Himalayas. We offer Star Guided expeditions on Kilimanjaro because it’s such a great progress peak, and many climbers go on to have future 6,000m, 7,000m, and 8,000m goals. These rare opportunities are the perfect opportunity to pick the brains of some of the best in the business.

Since arriving, our team has completed their gear guides and a guide briefing with enough time to catch a few cultural highlights. Today, the team did an exclusive tour to the spectacular Materuni Waterfall along the Mware River. After that, they took a tour of a local coffee plantation and participated in the coffee roasting experience.

Tomorrow, the team will head into Kilimanjaro National Park and cross through the Machame Gate to begin their climb.

Thank you to Pega Sherpa for sharing these shots from your waterfall tour.
