- Climbing Kilimanjaro!? I go day by day what my experience was like hiking to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro Tanzania. This was a crazy time hiking the Lemosho Route from the base all the way to the summit of Kilimanjaro. I wanted to share a Kilimanjaro travel guide with all the tips for climbing Kilimanjaro dealing with altitude sickness, summiting Kilimanjaro and all that stuff. Waking up at midnight at base camp and trekking the rest of the way up the mountain was something else. Our summit attempt was unlike anything I've ever done but so worth it to see the views from the top of Kilimanjaro Mountain. I climbed this mountain with 4 friends and loved every second of it and hope I can give you a bit of a guide to what it's really like to hike Kilimanjaro.

Hey Guys! Hope you liked this one. What a day summit day was. Crazy! Still can't believe we made it 😂 Was so sure. few of us wouldn't. Any of you guys do any hiking? Let me know your favorite places! ❤️🌍
Hey Joey, another great video. Kilimanjaro is so pretty when the snow sticks at the summit. Regarding the food, it's not the same with all operators. The mid-range companies will resupply food a little more than halfway into the trip, so you can get fresh meats and eggs during the hardest parts of the climb. Protein is an important part of recovery.
Can you tell us what company you used?
Tasmania's Mount Ossa in Australia was epic, scary and definitely one of the best things I've done.. alone! The Overland track is a 6day hike with each night in your tent or you can use the permanent camp huts. You are totally self sufficient in case of inclement weather. And basically throughout each day you can do little side trips eg a 30min walk to a look out or waterfall etc with a day pack leaving your big pack on the ground at the start point. So on this day I hiked for 3 hours from camp, did Mount Ossa (EPIC rock scrambling!) which was a FIVE HOUR round trip, picked up my (now VERY heavy feeling 20kg pack) and hiked for another hour to camp with a blissful rock pool and waterfall. This has given me the gumption to do Kili. I'd love to do the Lemosho route and plan to in 3 months. Wish me luck! And thank you for this video :) Keep adventuring everyone ;) Amy
The Grand Canyon. Walk slowly down to enjoy scenery and read about the eons of geologic time you are passing through. Spend a couple of nights at the bottom exploring, and then the BIG walk up. Truly an incredible experience.
Ahhh ive always wanted to do the Grand Canyon! Hoping to do it this summer if things clear up. Awesome you got to spend some nights down there. Super jealous! 🤩
Joey, one should only do it in the Spring or Fall - much too hot in the summer. For example, in April snow at the rim and delightful 75 degrees at the bottom.
Gotcha yeah seems like it would be too hot most of the time out there 😂
Thanks for taking the Climb Joey! Kili will welcome you back anytime!
Wow so glad you all made it! So cool to all be able to do this! Those summit sunrise pics looked incredible!
So glad we all made it too! And yes being at the summit was unlike anything else ive ever done. CRAZY!
You sure know Kilimanjaro by heart now, and what it has in store. Glad you got to experience it.
Ryan Touhey haha for real 😂 you don’t forget something when your body goes through that much pain
WoW! That summit attempt seems intense!! Glad you guys all made it. That altitude sickness doesnt seem fun though. Yuck!
I know haha that altitude sickness wasnt fun. But thats part of it i guess 🤷♂️ haha

So true!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
@@JoeyBriggs no problem. We have a good time making outdoor videos also
lots of fun to make and watch 🤩😁
Sorry if I missed it in the previous video, which company did you use for this climb?
I’ve just signed up to climb in October! I’ve watched loads of videos but this was my favourite 🥰 Just a quick question - how many power pack did you take to charge your phone etc? Thank you
I’m doing September!!!!
I am curious on the powerpack question. What did you need?
@Joey Briggs--
Hello Joey-
I saw your video on Kilimanjaro tips on CZcams. It was well done and helpful. I am planning to go in June 2023 with G Adventures.
I had a question as a fellow US Citizen. Did you do the E-Visa or the Visa on Arrival? If you did the E-Visa do they put a Tanzania Visa Sticker in your passport? (I ask this because I love collecting them). If you opt for the other way, I am assuming there are long lines?
Please write back when you can.
Best.
Cool vid. For the tipping did you do it by day or did you tip them at the end?
You do it all at once at the end and can do once you're back in the city so you don't have to cary all that money
Thanks for uploading the video. Just curious..Is there any risk engaging with wild animals such as lions while hiking up there?
what company did you use?
i have the same question
What group did you go through?
Did you have diamox?
No but to of the people I climbed with did and it seemed to help
Hi Joey, you are a very interesting person, I feel positive energy from you :-) I would like to tell you that I think and feel that you are a >>Starseed
