We opted NOT to do a 2 day climb, so that would increase your cost if you choose to do two days. The total climb in one day started at 7 am and reached the summit at 12:30 ... then the decent we were at our car by 4 and back in Arusha by 10PM. We drove our own car as well. So there are options, if any one is interested in going. | Number of Users: 2 | Number of Posts: 4 | ||||||||||||
