Join Kilimanjaro Groups and experience Africa’s highest mountain in a fun, social, and affordable way. Whether you’re a solo traveler or with a few friends, joining a group makes climbing Mount Kilimanjaro easier and more enjoyable. At Bush Lion Tours, we connect travelers with fixed departure dates, giving you a cost-effective and guided adventure of a lifetime.
We keep our group sizes small, usually between 6 to 12 climbers. This gives you a more personal experience, allowing guides to support everyone closely and helping the group bond as a team. You won’t feel lost in a crowd — your safety, comfort, and pace matter.
Once you book, your date is guaranteed. Even if you’re the only one booked on a specific day, your climb will go on. We understand your time is valuable, so we never cancel due to low numbers.
Joining a group allows you to enjoy the full Kilimanjaro experience at a lower cost. You share logistics, staff, and equipment, reducing your price — but we still provide high-quality gear, professional guides, and top service.
Our joining climbs attract people from different countries and cultures. It’s a great chance to make new friends, share stories, and motivate each other to reach the summit together.
Your health is our top priority. We do twice-daily health checks using pulse oximeters, and our guides are trained in altitude sickness management. Our group climbs follow strict safety standards to ensure everyone stays well and protected.
Our guides are certified, experienced, and speak fluent English. They are not only your leaders but also your support team, motivators, and problem solvers on the mountain.
We offer group climbs on the most successful routes like Lemosho, Machame, and Marangu. These routes allow for good acclimatization, improving your chances of reaching Uhuru Peak safely.
Before your climb starts, we provide a detailed group briefing and equipment check. This helps you feel confident, informed, and fully prepared for the adventure ahead.
We care for Kilimanjaro and the local community. Our teams follow “Leave No Trace” principles, and we pay fair wages to our crew. When you climb with us, you support ethical and sustainable tourism.
Whether you want airport transfers, hotel bookings, or a safari after your climb, we can arrange everything. We make your trip stress-free, from arrival to departure.

EXCELLENT Based on 68 reviews Marco R2025-09-02Verified 6 days machame route + 5 days safari Had the luck to climb Kilimanjaro and have a 5 days safari with Bush Lions. We ended up really happy and accomplished by these experiences! Thank you so much! ChristySunshine2025-08-30Verified Highly, highly recommended Jackson @Bush Lion Tours Our journey with Bush Lion Tours Jackson was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first moment we contacted him, everything was handled with the highest level of professionalism, warmth, and care.We climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with their amazing team, and thanks to their expert guides, flawless logistics, and constant encouragement, we not only reached the summit safely but truly enjoyed every step of the adventure. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable, attentive to every detail, and always made sure we felt safe, comfortable, and motivated. Their positive energy turned a challenging climb into an unforgettable experience.After the climb, we went on a safari—and it was just as breathtaking. From majestic lions and graceful giraffes to elephants, zebras, and endless Serengeti landscapes, every moment felt like stepping into a nature documentary. The accommodations and meals during the safari were excellent, combining comfort with an authentic African atmosphere.What stood out most was how Jackson with Bush Lion Tours made us feel cared for at every stage of the journey. He didn’t just organize a trip—they created memories we will treasure forever.If you are dreaming of climbing Kilimanjaro or experiencing a true African safari, look no further. Jackson @ Bush Lion Tours is absolutely the best partner you could ask for. Highly, highly recommended! Scenic5908062025-08-28Verified Unforgettable 17-Day Cultural, Nature, and Safari Experience with Bush Lion Trekking & Tours! A huge thank you to Jackson and his amazing team for making our dream come true!Our group of four recently completed a 17-day journey with Bush Lion Trekking & Tours—10 days of cultural immersion followed by 7 days of safari—and it was one of the most unforgettable travel experiences we've ever had.Very impressive about personal attention and warm hospitality from the entire Bush Lion team, especially team leader Jackson. We adjusted our daily schedule several times to better suit our interests and time, and Jackson was incredibly responsive. He quickly understood our preferences and adapted our daily activities perfectly—every change was exactly what we needed.We visited Maasai and Chaga villages, took part in traditional ceremonies, tried local songs and dances, learned about the Maasai way of life, and enjoyed delicious home-cooked meals. Our guides—Mr. Frandy from the Maasai tribe and a knowledgeable female guide (whose name, sadly, I can't recall)—were both passionate and informative. Spending a night in a traditional Maasai house was a truly unique and memorable experience. The campfire dinner that evening was another highlight of the cultural tour.Beyond the villages, we kayaked on two lakes, hiked to two beautiful waterfalls, visited a local coffee farm, and explored local arts and farmers markets. We also took two exciting day trips—one hiking in the Kilimanjaro rainforest, and another to a conservation park where we saw rhinos and wild dogs. Every single day was packed with meaningful and exciting experiences.Then came the safari—and wow! My dream of seeing African wildlife up close came true. We explored three national parks over seven days of game drives. We saw the Big Five and so much more than we imagined while planning the trip. Our safari guide, Hossain, was an expert spotter and had a wonderful personality that brought so much joy to the trip. We were incredibly lucky to witness wildebeests crossing the Mara River not once, but three times! We also experienced stunning sunrises and sunsets in the parks—moments that will stay with us forever. Sunshine027744643582025-08-09Verified Very nice safari, incredible Very nice week safari to see the big migrations, the camps were comfortable and our guide Peter was very friendly and gave us a lot of information Frieda I2025-08-02Verified Unforgettable 7 Days on the Machame Route I just came back from the most incredible adventure—climbing Mount Kilimanjaro via the Machame Route for 7 days. It was truly a life-changing experience!From day one, the team was amazing. Our guides were knowledgeable, patient, and very encouraging. They always made sure we were safe, comfortable, and enjoying every moment. The porters were real heroes—always smiling and working so hard behind the scenes.Each day on the mountain was different. We walked through rainforest, moorland, and even snowy paths near the top. The views were just breathtaking. One of the best moments was watching the sunrise from Stella Point—it made all the hard work worth it.What really helped me was the slow pace ("pole pole") and good acclimatization. I think that’s why I managed to reach the summit feeling strong and happy.If you’re thinking of climbing Kilimanjaro, I highly recommend the Machame Route. It’s beautiful, challenging, and gives you time to adjust to the altitude. Make sure you go with a team that truly cares like the one I had.This was more than just a hike. It was a journey of personal growth, connection with nature, and unforgettable memories.
