Experience a unique walking tour in the Tanzanian wilderness. The area is completely untouched and the only people you will encounter are the Maasai.Discovering the savannah on foot is very exciting. This is suitable for those who are real adventurers and have a relatively good physical condition. Each day you will walk about 15-20 km and you will stay in different places each night. However, the pace is comfortable and you walk at about 2 - 2.5 km/h.
It is likely to be hot and dusty, but there is much to see on the way and you will make many short stops. You will start the day and have breakfast just before sunrise. With lunch packed, you'll head off into the wilderness; dinner will be prepared by your cook when you arrive at your camp for the night. By then, your tents will also already be pitched. We will bring a chemical toilet and shower for you to use.
You will have with you an armed ranger, a person who will arrange the camp for the night, a walking guide and a cook. You will only need to carry a small backpack. We have a professional team where your safety is our top priority. You will be driven to the starting point and will stay the first and last night at Amin iMasai Lodge which is a nice lodge where you can recharge for the tour as well as rest upper after your tour. This is not a trip for those looking for luxury, but if you are looking for adventure and an experience that few others have had, this is the perfect tour for you.
"It was an adventurous trip where we really got to experience Tanzania's wilderness. We didn't encounter any tourists at all. Long way to go, but it was worth it every time. Would recommend anyone who is a bit adventurous to give it a go. Memory for life"

We will pick you up at the airport in Arusha or Kilimanjaro. One of our representatives will stand with a sign with your name in the arrivals hall. You will then be transferred to your hotel where you will have time to recover after a long journey. Moshi is beautifully situated at the foot of Kilimanjaro. The region is characterised by coffee and banana plantations. Moshi is high above sea level, which makes the climate very pleasant. In the evening a lovely dinner is included at Amini Masai Lodge where you will stay for the first night.
After breakfast, you will receive a short briefing on the schedule for the coming days. You will then be driven to the Kitenden Ranger Post where your adventure will begin. The first part of the walking tour borders Kilimanjaro National Park. You will have lunch at a nice place out in the nature. Here you will also meet up with your friendly walking guide who will go through all the safety procedures. The camp has a nice view of Kilimanjaro when the sky is clear.
You have an early breakfast and then the next part of the adventure begins. Today you will hike in a more hilly terrain with nice views. The distance is about 20 km. You will see Amboseli and the Sinay area. In this area you will have great opportunities to see animals either resting in the shade or grazing in the grass. When you get to the lower parts, you will sit down for a nice lunch where you can enjoy the wildlife around you. The next stop will be Chui Campsite which is an established campsite. Here you will have a three-course dinner served by our chef.
You will be served breakfast in the morning and will then head to the more open areas of the savannah. These are areas that giraffes and elephants love. On this day you will walk about 15 kilometres. You will probably pass some Maasai who are out grazing their goats and cows. This is often alongside wild zebras. These roads are completely untouched by tourists. The views are magnificent of Kilimanjaro, Mount Meru and Mount Longido. By the time you arrive, dinner is ready and afterwards you can enjoy an open fire and a well-deserved night's sleep.
Today you can have a nice and relaxed day after an eventful journey. You will say goodbye to your team that has been with you on the trip and go to Amini Masai Lodge which is 1.5 hours away. When you arrive, you can enjoy the lovely lodge and take a dip in the pool. In the evening, a fine dinner is included.

You can enjoy a leisurely breakfast at the hotel. If you choose to add our Zanzibar package, we will pick you up well before departure. If you have booked your own flight from Arusha or Kilimanjaro, you decide when you want to be picked up for transport to the airport. If you would like a transfer on another day, this can be arranged.
If you want to extend this trekking safari, that's fine. We'll add a few extra areas. The terrain will be mixed and you will walk on higher plateaus with nice views, but also beautiful valleys. If you are lucky, you will see spectacular sunsets and you will have the opportunity to see almost all the savannah animals.
