Absolute Africa is proud to work with our Chief Guide, Samson Lauwo, the grandson of the famous Yohani Kinyala Lauwo, 'Mzee Lauwo', who led Hans Meyer, the first European to summit Kilimanjaro in 1889.

We can trek any day of the week as we have our own team so we can head out any day that you wish. We also though aim to set up a few group dates during the year for those who would prefer to head out in a party.

In 2013, we have the following group trekking dates heading out with Samson:

7 Day Rongai
Commencing 2nd January, 2013
Finishing 8th January, 2013
Price: £1220 per person - Includes pre-trek accommodation on the 1st January and post-trek accommodation on the 8th January.
.

Finishing: 24th January 2013
Price: £1135 per person - Includes pre-trek accommodation on the 17th January and post-trek accommodation on the 24th January.

Special Combo Deals available with this trek:

Special 7 Day Rongai - Full Moon Neil Armstrong Commemorative Trek
Commencing 22nd January, 2013
Summiting 27th January, 2013 - Full Moon
Finishing 28th January, 2013
Price: £1200 per person - Includes pre-trek accommodation on the 21st January and post-trek accommodation on the 28th January.

Climbing Kilimanjaro on a full moon is popular, as the moon illuminates the glaciers making it a surreal visual experience. Being on the summit of Kilimanjaro will be the nearest point to the moon in Africa, and being on the equator the weather in January is normally the warmest and driest time of year with the sky being clear.

We are doing 2 special treks, one in January and one in February for a full moon climb due to clients requesting more group departures and to commemorate the death of Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon. So many of us that day watched it televised in black and white and after a long wait, Neil Armstrong saying the "Eagle has landed" along with climbing out of the capsule. All of us in Overlanding have a spirit of adventure and that Apollo moon landing was the biggest of all time.
