Discover Tanzania Trekking Destinations

Zara Tanzania Adventures understands that each of our clients has different expectations for their adventures. Our carefully created trekking packages focus on diverse landscapes and terrain, allowing you to choose the destination that provides your dream trekking vacation at a level of physical activity suited to your experience.

Mount Kilimanjaro Trekking

At 5896 m, Mount Kilimanjaro is considered the “rooftop” of Africa.

As the highest peak in Africa, it offers an exciting Tanzania trekking experience covering diverse terrain from banana fields to mountain pastures and deep rain forests to otherworldly moonscapes.

Our Kilimanjaro trekking packages include a midnight ascent to Uhuru Peak to watch the sun rise and take in breathtaking views of Tanzania and Mount Meru.

Mount Meru

Mount Meru, the second-highest mountain in Tanzania at 4566 m, is one of Tanzania’s best-kept secrets.

Taking you through the beauty of Arusha National Park’s tropical rainforest and lush grasslands, the trek ends with a dramatic climb along the rim of the park’s volcanic crater.

Expect to be challenged on this steep trek that is far less travelled than the trails of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Trekking Tour Packages

When you book a Kilimanjaro trekking tour or any other incredible trekking experience in Tanzania, you’re guaranteed an incredible adventure that offers spectacular sights and scenery and unforgettable experiences to last a lifetime.

Whether you’re trekking Kilimanjaro, gorilla trekking in Uganda, or enjoying the less-travelled paths of Mount Meru, Zara Tanzania Adventures offers trekking and climbing experiences that are guaranteed to take your breath away.

Mount Kilimanjaro Trekking Routes

Although Mount Kilimanjaro trekking adventures involve physical challenges, we offer less strenuous options to ensure each traveller enjoys a safe journey.

Travelling with our expert climbing guides, you can choose the gradual ascent of the Marangu Route, the more strenuous but scenic Machame Route, the lower traffic and unsurpassed beauty of the Lemosho Route, the unique view of Kilimanjaro from the solitude of the Northern Circuit, or the tranquillity of pristine wilderness on the Londorossi Route.

For the experienced climber, the Umbwe Route is the steepest but most direct path to the summit.

Tanzania Group Departure Packages

If you want a more budget-friendly trekking option or prefer a more structured travel plan, group departures are an excellent option. Consisting of larger groups, this is a more social vacation ideal for solo travellers who enjoy meeting new people on their travels.

Group climbs are also booked during the best seasons for trekking, helping ensure you enjoy pleasant weather and can take advantage of all the beauty the local area has to offer. You can choose from popular routes of Kilimanjaro to suit your challenge level.

Mount Meru Trekking

When you’re looking for a less touristy trekking adventure, Mount Meru offers challenging trails, breathtaking views, diverse ecosystems, and fewer crowds.

You can enjoy a more exclusive vacation where you can connect with nature, learn about the culture of the Meru people, and spend your nights under the stars in comfort at designated campgrounds.

Enjoy cultural interactions, watching the sun rise over the stunning landscapes at the peak, and encountering diverse wildlife from monkeys to exotic birds and warthogs to giraffes. Not for the novice hiker, the trails are rugged and challenging but well worth the effort.

Why Choose Zara Tanzania Adventures

Whether you want to experience it all, love meeting the people of the area, are all about being closer to nature, or want to face the ultimate climbing challenge, Zara Tanzania Adventures has the expertise to plan your dream Tanzanian trekking adventure.

 Verified Feedback on my Mount Kilimanjaro trekking experience. My friends & I were trekking. under Abdi as our chief guide & his team of capable assistant guides ( Luca, Delvina) and his supporting team of cook & porters, all very helpful & encouraging. Without Abdi’s leadership, experience & his team, we would not have enjoyed the trek so much. Would certainly recommend Abdi & his team to friends who may want to do the Mount Kili trek.

 Verified Highly recommend Zara Tours for Kilimanjaro My experience was the best possible. From the begging i had told Zara that my fiancé and I wanted to exchange rings at the summit and they have done everything possible to make it happen. They even brought a bottle of wine for us to toast at the summit. It was awesome! And a great surprise. Zara has delivered everything I was waiting for: very welcoming employees, trustworthy guides, friendly crew, great food and comfortable tents. I highly recommend.

 Verified Feedback on our safari tour with ZTA. My friends & I were driven on our safari Holiday by Godfrey. We find Godfrey very knowledgeable about wildlife ( from animals to bird life & also about the habitats of where they live) . Godfrey is also a very patient driver, giving us enough time to take photos before moving onto the next stop. He drove very safely on roads that were in bad condition and fwhere the traffic is very heavy & overtaking very difficult but he never took unnecessary risks. Very happy with his services & will certainly recommend him to other tour groups.

 Verified Awesome and worth it The 10 Zara team of guides, porters and cooks were very professional, caring and encouraging. They ensured my team of 3 ladies were well cared for. Abdi, Lukas, Delvina and Sharifa plus the others were all outstanding. Two out of 3 of us made it to Uhuru Peak. Our safety was their number 1 priority and we all made it back safely, satisfied. Thank you for helping me summit successfully.

 Verified Best trip ever! We had the most amazing safari trip in Tanzania! We got to experience so many animals and got to observe their natural behaviour. Our guide, Amiri, was incredible and could tell us everything we wanted to know - and he was very aware of making our dreams come true - which he definitely did! We are so grateful for this trip, and we highly recommend people to go! It truly was the best trip ever :-)

 Verified Great Kilimanjaro Trekking with Zara and our amazing guides The daily hikes, camps and the summit day were very memorable. We had lower expectations compared to what we experienced. We got great food, so it was easy to eat much, also we had a great team, that set our camps up and supported us all the way. We had 2 great and experienced guides from ZARA adventures (Juma Omari and Issa Chikira). The summit day was hard but the guides helped us to get to the top and we loved the experience!

 Verified Amazing successful summit of Kilimanjaro. The Kilimanjaro tour led by Rajabu Msangi was amazing, easily the best mountaineering trip I’ve had. The whole team under Rajabu’s guidance worked tirelessly to ensure our group had a successful summit and overall very enjoyable experience. The food prepared was excellent throughout and plentiful to keep our energy levels high. Rajabu and the other guides were very knowledgeable and personable and no effort was spared in ensuring our safety and enjoyment during the trip. Many thanks to all those at Zara tours for a fantastic trip.

 Verified Fantastic experience What an incredible experience! Rajabu Msangi was our lead guide and he did an incredible job of making sure our group of 6 were happy, healthy and that we all made it to the top. Personally I wouldn't have made it to the top without Raj and his teams help and support as I was quite unwell with altitude sickness. The whole team did an incredible job, the amount of work that goes into the 8 days is quite something and the whole team did an awesome job.

 Verified Great organization and quality! Pickup from the airport was smooth and comfortable. The hotel room before the climb was reasonable with air conditioning and was entirely clean. During the climb, our guide Ibra was knowledgeable of major landmarks and the ecosystem. Each day had a consistent meal schedule and the porters carried our baggage and set our tents before we arrived at the next camp. Overall the experience felt like a surreal dream and I have zero complaints!

 Verified Helt igennem fantastisk En helt fantastisk tur til Tarangire, Nonrongoro og Serengeti. Hamsa vores guide var fantastisk formidler og imponerende dygtig til at holde øje med vejen, trafikken og samtidig spotte selv en dik dik i busken under kørslen. Teltet i campen på Serengeti burde vi nok have opgraderet så gulvet var plant, men vi var på den anden side kun der for at sove. Maden bliver man ikke fed af og den er noget ensformig men omvendt kan man nok ikke forvente Michelin stjerner på savannen.

 Verified Unforgettable safari with Zara Tours My partner and I went on a 10 day safari organized by Zara Tours. Everything was well-organized, staff was very friendly, plenty of delicious food was provided and accomodations were clean and spacious. We were welcomed and well accompanied/guided everywhere. Thanks to our professional driver Rafa, who we strongly recommend, we saw amazing landscapes and so many animals up close while always feeling safe. Going on safari really is an adventure and I believe Zara Tours is the best partner to accompany you during this unforgettable experience.

 Verified Amazing holiday in Tanzania We had an amazing 2 weeks holiday arranged by Tour Compass, First week on safari, including Tarangire National Park, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. our guide Issa was highly experienced with excellent knowledge of the wildlife, geography and history of Tanzania. Issa was friendly and engaging and happy to answer all our questions. Organisation and timing was excellent, often leaving before sunrise allowing us to experience the full and diverse behaviours of the animals. Issa’s experience ensured we saw the ‘Big Five’ and had many ‘Once in a lifetime moments. We would be happy to recommend Issa as a guide. Issa was always happy to go over and above to ensure we got the best possible experience. All the staff we met at all the Hotels in the 2 weeks were incredibly friendly and helpful and the food was diverse, plentiful and delicious.

 Verified Core memories made Hello!! Back from my kili trip and just wanted to say I had the most incredible time!!! The guides (Theo, Edgar and Lucas) from Zara were beyond anything I had hoped. We all became like a family and supported each other to all summit!!!! When they say POLE POLE there is a reason, trust the process, it feeling ridiculous at first but you body needs time to adapt. The food was full of flavour and perfect for fuelling, water was always available to fill up bottles at camps and the toilets were clean and A LOT better than what I had been worrying about. Thankyou again!!!

 Verified Feedback für Mpole - Ein Guide der Extraklasse! Wir hatten 5 unglaubliche Tage Safari in Tansania mit Mpole und können ihn zu 1000% weiterempfehlen! Mpole war nicht nur ein super toller Guide, sondern darüber hinaus einfach ein toller Mensch. Er hat uns in der Safari alles gezeigt und erklärt, was man sich nur wünschen kann. Kein Tier, keine Pflanze, keine Frage blieb unbeantwortet – man merkt sofort, wie viel Leidenschaft und Wissen er für sein Land und die Tiere hat. Das Besondere war aber, wie gut wir in den 5 Tagen miteinander ausgekommen sind. Es hat sich nicht wie Guide und Gäste angefühlt, sondern wie Familie. Er nimmt sich wirklich Zeit, erklärt alles in Ruhe und mit so viel Herz. Und nicht zu vergessen: Er ist ein hervorragender Autofahrer! Selbst auf den schwierigsten Pisten haben wir uns immer absolut sicher gefühlt und er hat uns immer in die beste Position für Fotos und Beobachtungen gebracht. Wer nach Tansania reist, sollte unbedingt mit Mpole unterwegs sein. Asante sana, Mpole – du hast unsere Reise unvergesslich gemacht!
