The Best Northern Circuit Route Group Tours in 2025–2026 | Kilimanjaro

The Northern Circuit Route is the longest and most scenic trail on Mount Kilimanjaro, circling around the northern slopes of the mountain and offering unmatched panoramas. In 2025–2026, Macpace Tours and Safaris is excited to host the best group tours on the Northern Circuit Route, giving climbers a unique opportunity to enjoy quieter paths, excellent acclimatization, and breathtaking views of both Kenya and Tanzania. This nine-day itinerary is perfect for adventurers seeking a slower-paced climb with a higher chance of summit success, all while sharing the journey with a supportive group of fellow trekkers.

A Northern Circuit group climb is more than just a trek, it’s a full immersion into Kilimanjaro’s diverse landscapes and ecosystems. Starting from the western side, the route passes through lush rainforests, vast moorlands, and high alpine deserts before circling around to join the summit approach. Group tours create an atmosphere of teamwork and camaraderie, where climbers encourage one another through long days and share celebrations at the summit of Uhuru Peak. With our professional guides leading the way, experienced porters carrying essentials, and hot meals prepared daily, you’ll have everything you need for both comfort and success on this extraordinary route.

We handle every aspect of your adventure, including airport pickups, park fees, permits, logistics, and quality camping equipment. The longer itinerary allows for gradual acclimatization, giving this route one of the highest summit success rates on the mountain. Because it is both unique and less crowded, spaces on these departures are limited and fill quickly.
