After breakfast, you will be picked up from Salinero Kilimanjaro Hotel and head to Machame Gate, where your guide secures the necessary permits while you enjoy a fresh coffee or tea. Begin your trek through the lush rainforest blanketing Kilimanjaro’s lower slopes—an enchanting world of towering trees, vibrant plants, and playful black-and-white colobus monkeys. After about 5–6 hours of trekking, arrive at Machame Camp where you can freshen up with warm water before a hearty mountain dinner.
