Chloe R., Germany – 04 Jan Review – Mount Meru Trek Before Kilimanjaro

Completed the Mount Meru Trek just before my Kilimanjaro climb this past April. It was an excellent decision! The trek itself was a good challenge, offering stunning scenery and a chance to acclimatize. The wildlife sightings on Meru were a pleasant surprise too – seeing buffalo and baboons up close was fantastic. It really helped prepare me physically and mentally for Kili. The guides were professional and experienced. While the climb was great, there were a couple of minor communication hiccups regarding gear logistics, but overall a very positive experience and worthwhile preparation.
