This was undoubtedly one of the most incredible experience I've had and Karlmarx and his team were definitely part of those who made this experience memorable. From start to finish we were well taking care of and given the information we needed to make sure we were ready and we would make it to the top of Africa. You'll have the experience of a lifetime, hiking through rainforest, desert-like areas and snowy landscapes. I would definitely recommend Karlmarx for your Kilimanjaro Adventure, thanks again for everything!Charlotte L2024-06-21Amazing Our trop with Karl Max was a Relay good experience. He is very professionnal and we had a lot of interessing discussion! Karl Max likes to transmit his passion for the mountain. Thanks a lot!Brandone M2024-06-21What a trip with Karl Marx ! We climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with Karl Marx as guide of the team in june 2024. We won’t never forget our trip. We mostly appreciate his insurance and calm to guide us safely, his joy of living to make the moments even more special, and his advises about hiking, all along the trip. We have passed precious moments with Karl Marx. As a bonus, he can teach you some dances from trendy songs in Tanzania ! 🕺 Karl Marx and his team were a precious help for us to make it to the top !Shaj2024-03-26An amazing trek with an exceptional guide! I had an amazing trip with Karlmarx and couldn’t be more fortunate to be helped up the mountain by such an amazing guide! His knowledge of the mountain was unmatched and he ensured the trek was as enjoyable as possible, helping my group and I navigate all the various challenges the mountain had to offer. Constantly at hand to support and making sure that we were climbing at the correct pace whilst also planning ahead to avoid crowds on the mountain somehow miss the rain. I was on the 6 day Machame route and Karlmarx was instrumental in getting me up the mountain on a very hard final day summit push and getting back down safely when completely drained of energy. I was lucky enough to get a perfect sunrise summit view but again that down to Karlmarx’s meticulous planning, time-keeping and pace making. If you’re lucky enough to have Karlmarx with you up the mount be assured you are in very safe hands and with someone who is not only passionate about you getting up the mountain but also making sure you have the most enjoyable experience and educating you about the mountain. Thank you for letting me experience a trek that I will surely remember for life!Maggie2024-02-19I had a wonderful experience with the help from Karlmax and his team. From the picking point to my way back home. I didn’t make it to the summit due to the altitude sickness. But Karly and his team were really helpful with my situation.Inès Grandvaux2023-11-06Best guide ever ! I had the pleasure to climb Kilimanjaro this September and it has been an amazing adventure and a life changing experience thanks to our guide Karl Marx. I wouldn't thank him enough for his passion, support, advice, generosity... but also for the fun ! I will never forget about the Kilimanjaro hike and about Karl Marx who made it unforgettable. I would recommend Karl Marx with no hesitation to everyone who's looking for an amazing guide for a hike in Tanzania and if I could, I would put more than 5 stars for the review ! I'm happy to answer any questions you may have :)Leonie D2023-11-01Climbing Mount Meru With a group of friends we climbed Mount Meru in August 2023. Karl Marx was part of the wonderful team of guides and porters who accompanied us throughout our journey. He has been a very committed, professional and generous guide, always attentive and willing to help us with managing the effects of the altitude. We particularly appreciated his patience and diligence. The long conversations we had, in particular about life in Tanzania and tips about hiking, made the experience even more enjoyable. Climbing Mount Meru is a lifetime experience that we will never forget, and Karl Marx has largely contributed to make it unforgettable. Without any hesitation, we would choose him and the team again for our next challenge in Tanzania, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. We cannot recommend him highly enough, and would be happy to answer any questions any potential clients may have about our experience.Waleed R2023-10-31Brilliant guide Karlmax was an incredible guide and made our climb up Kili super enjoyable!
