Overview
The 3 days Mount Kilimanjaro Trek is one of the shortest tour packages we offer for clients who are not summit clients, clients with limited time, or clients on a tighter budget who might prefer a short journey up Kilimanjaro. This kind of package is created by Focus East Africa Tours, the top travel agency in Tanzania, to meet your needs. The tour begins as a regular tour but ends at the second hut. After arriving at Horombo Hut (3720m), we simply spend the night there before leaving. The next morning, we descended to the gate while others continued on to the base camp and finally the summit.
