Exceptional care and support We had a wonderful experience with Hike Talk Stay, from our Kilimanjaro trek through to our 2-day safari. The whole team were incredibly kind, attentive and professional. As the only woman in our group, I particularly appreciated how they looked after my comfort and wellbeing throughout the trek. We always felt safe and genuinely cared for. Their attention to safety and medical care was exceptional. When medical attention was needed, they acted quickly and professionally, arranged the helicopter and continued to support us in hospital. They also kindly sent through the medical reports afterwards. Their care and reassurance meant so much to us. Our 2-day safari was equally enjoyable, with comfortable accommodation, good organisation and the same wonderful level of care. A heartfelt thank you to the entire Hike Talk Stay team for making this such a memorable experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone planning a Kilimanjaro trek and safari — their warmth, professionalism and genuine care really make a difference. ❤️

We completed the 8-day Kilimanjaro trek via the Lemosho Route with Hike Talk Stay Adventures, and from the moment we arrived, the entire experience was truly exceptional. The personalised and professional service started right from the airport. When some of our luggage was delayed, the team went above and beyond to help us follow up with the airline and ensure we received it. They also carefully checked our trekking gear and, where there were any gaps, took us personally to arrange rentals so that we had everything we needed before starting the climb. Even at the hotel, Ahmed and Casper were always personally available to make sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. The quality of the equipment provided — including the duffel bags, sleeping bags and trekking poles — was excellent. We also appreciated the flexibility to arrange additional porters for those of us who needed to carry a little extra luggage beyond the allocated 15 kg. The guide team — Prosper, Hussain, Diana, Juma and Arsenal — were outstanding. They were professional, knowledgeable, caring and incredibly supportive throughout every step of the trek. When some of us began experiencing symptoms of altitude sickness, including nausea and headaches, they immediately stepped in with extra care and attention. They made sure we had the right food and even prepared soup for us in our tents. Every little detail was looked after with genuine warmth, patience and, most importantly, a smile. The team also kept the energy and morale of the group high throughout the trek. The singing and dancing brought so much joy and helped take our minds off the physical and mental challenges of the mountain. It was a wonderful part of the experience! The satellite connection was excellent and available every day, which was a huge comfort as it allowed us to stay connected with our families back home. The provision of toilets and showers was another fantastic touch — something we were especially grateful for after long days of trekking and during those moments when a little extra warmth and comfort was very welcome. Summit day was where the team truly went above and beyond. They supported us every step of the way — walking pole pole (slowly, slowly), helping us clean runny noses, warming our hands, providing glucose and Coke for energy, and continuously encouraging us throughout the summit push. Their patience, care and motivation were incredible. Honestly, if it weren’t for the dedication of our guides and porters, I don’t believe I would have successfully reached the summit. They didn’t just guide us up the mountain — they genuinely cared about our wellbeing and became an essential part of our journey. A huge thank you to the entire Hike Talk Stay Adventures team for making such a challenging adventure feel safe, supported and incredibly memorable. I highly recommend Hike Talk Stay Adventures for their outstanding service, hospitality, professionalism and, above all, the genuine care they show their guests. If you’re planning to climb Kilimanjaro, we would absolutely recommend them! Thank you, HTS, for helping me reach the Roof of Africa! 🏔️❤️

Kilimanjaro trip July 2026 As we come to the end of an unforgettable journey through Kilimanjaro, the safari, and the beautiful island of Zanzibar, I would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who made this experience so special. A huge thank you to Ahmed, HTS adventures whose meticulous planning, constant troubleshooting, and unwavering support throughout the trip ensured everything ran smoothly. Having you accompany us during the safari and Zanzibar, especially with such a large group, gave us all tremendous confidence and peace of mind. Our deepest appreciation also goes to our wonderful mountain guides, Casper and Prosper, together with their incredible team of 99 angels—the porters, cooks, and support staff—whose dedication, encouragement, smiles, and tireless efforts helped us conquer Mount Kilimanjaro. Every step of our journey was made possible because of your hard work and care. A sincere thank you to the safari team, especially the excellent drivers across the four safari vehicles under Ellie's guidance. Your professionalism, knowledge, patience, and enthusiasm made every game drive memorable and enjoyable. Special thanks to our exceptional group leader, Prabhu, who successfully led our group of 28 people with calmness, positivity, and great organisation. Our appreciation also goes to Nanda and Priya, whose constant support, coordination, and attention to detail helped keep everything running seamlessly. To every member of our group—from the UK, the USA, and India—thank you for making this more than just a holiday. It became a journey of friendship, shared laughter, mutual support, unforgettable memories, and lifelong bonds between families and friends. Whether celebrating summit success, encouraging each other through difficult moments, enjoying the incredible wildlife, or relaxing on the beaches of Zanzibar, every moment was richer because of all of you. May this be just the beginning of many more adventures together. Finally, my humble gratitude to Lord Hanuman for blessing us with strength, courage, protection, and a safe journey throughout, and for bringing us all home safely. Until we meet again on another adventure... Ciao! 🙏🏔️🦁🌴 Subbu

We had a wonderful and awesome experience on our recent African adventures-hike up Kilimanjaro, a short Safari and a chilled out time in the beautiful island of Zanzibar, thanks to Hike, Talk, Stay Adventures❤️💥🤩 We were a group of 18 for the hike up Kilimanjaro, the group expanded to 29 for the latter part of our holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the holiday, and especially the trek up & down Kilimanjaro, thanks to the wonderful team at HTS who have been amazing throughout-we were looked after so well, the care was so very personalised and they went the extra-mile to make our hike enjoyable and memorable. The food was awesome and the entire team came together to cater to all our needs from the very start to the very end. Special thanks to Ahmed, Caspar, Prosper and the entire team at HTS. We would strongly recommend HTS for your adventures🤗🤩💥 Satya & James

I would thoroughly recommend HikeTalkStay Adventures. Ahmed was always available pretrip for all queries and help with planning. Quality of products provided like duffle bags, trekking poles, and sleeping bags were of such superior quality. The guides, porters and other crew were always ready to help and very friendly. But for them summit night wouldn’t have been possible. We had 4 helicopter rescues which were so proficiently handled by Casper and team. Would strongly recommend them

The helicopter was arranged as soon I felt my breathing was not alright

Very detailed explanation of the trip attention every minute detail

I purchased both the heated jacket and waterproof jumper for my dad. He had a stroke and is on blood thinners so nomatter how often the heat is blasting or he’s wrapped in blankets he can never ever get warm or stay warm. I purchased both pre Christmas and despite it being a busy time of the year they got here just after Christmas but it was no issues as the items themselves were fab. Unfortunately the jumper fit in a size large but the jacket was too small but the heat from the jumper is amazing. He has been popping it on for days when he gets cold and being hard to impress he was delighted with the heat from them. I would thoroughly recommend as it’s been keeping him warm on his walks and in the house and for reference it’s been 2degrees outside and he hasn’t complained of being cold yet.
