High Altitude Travel Yoga with NIKKI DEAN - We will practice yoga one to two times daily while climbing Kilimanjaro, on safari, and in Zanzibar, making this a trip like no other. This is an optional activity, but we encourage everyone to join to help you acclimate to your changing environment, relieve muscle tension and jet lag, and keep your spirits high.

Nikki has been teaching yoga internationally for 20 years, with students ranging from cancer patients to professional athletes. With creative and smart sequencing and hands-on assists, she focuses on form while you move through alignment-based flows, with modifications to make class accessible to all levels of yoga and fitness. Nikki’s goal is always to empower and uplift each student, helping you find your best self, both on and off the mat.

How Yoga Helps with High Altitude Adaptation

  • Increases carbon dioxide tolerance.
  • Improves endurance, including cardiovascular endurance.
  • Enhances blood flow to the brain.
  • Improves flexibility, reducing muscle fatigue, soreness and risk of injury.
  • Increases mental resiliency and fortitude.
  • Reduces stress and lowers blood pressure

When you're at a high altitude, the air is thinner and oxygen levels are lower. This can put a strain on your body, especially your cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Your body needs to work harder to get the oxygen it needs, which can lead to symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, and even altitude sickness. Yoga exercises, particularly those that focus on breathing, can help your body adapt to these conditions. Regular yoga practice can improve your lung capacity, making it easier for your body to take in and utilize oxygen. This is crucial at high altitudes where oxygen is scarce.

Is Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro Worth it?

YES!

Kilimanjaro is an achievement many hikers, athletes, and nature lovers have set their eyes on. But towering 19,341 feet, with a nearly 50% fail rate, reaching the peak takes a hefty amount of work against significant odds. Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro is absolutely worth it .

No, Kilimanjaro is trekking, no technical gear.

Mount Kilimanjaro is the tallest mountain on the African continent and the highest free-standing mountain in the world.

Each tent has a private deck with sun loungers and a private bathroom. There is also a special honeymoon and family cabin available.

Lemala Luxury Camp

Overview

Perched on the rim and affording spectacular views of the world famous Ngorongoro crater floor below, the ivy-clad Ngorongoro Serena Lodge offers good rooms, friendly service, well run facilities and delicious food.

Ngorongoro Serena Lodge is actually built into the rim of the crater itself, with the foliage-covered native stone of the lodge blending into the surrounding hillside. The views of the crater will certainly take your breath away: the 75 rooms, bar and restaurant all overlook the picturesque valley below. The rooms have attractive wooden floors and are decorated with ancient cave art. Each features modern en suite bathrooms, patios and heating as the temperatures can significantly drop here at night.

The main building contains a large restaurant, bar, gift shop, TV area and an attractive outside decking area, perfect for relaxing while admiring the view. There are buffets for breakfast and lunch but an a la carte menu is available for dinner.

Beside the exciting safaris within the crater, there are numerous walks and activities one can do from the lodge including visits to local tribal villages.

Within Ngorongoro crater is a diverse ecosystem representing nearly every habitat found in East Africa. Open grasslands are inhabited by wildebeest, zebra, lion, cheetah and black rhino; acacia woodland provides cover for leopards; swamps supply the food for elephants and buffalos; freshwater pools harbour hippos; and a small soda lake is a feeding ground for flocks of flamingos. In addition there are small outcrops of rocks which give shade for lions and even an highly arid area of shifting sand dunes.

Nungwi Beach Resort

Overview

Embodying all that is great in East Africa bush camping, Serengeti Safari Camp is a gem of a lodge. Six beautifully equipped safari tents provide accommodation for just 12 guests creating an intimate and relaxed atmosphere. Candlelit bush dinners, good standards of service and some of the best guides in Africa all go to complete the safari experience. The lodge switches its location throughout the year putting it in the very best position for the migration. For this reason the camp is one of the best options for those hoping to view some of the most spectacular events of the migration such as river crossings.

The camp itself is actually quite simple but the quality of food and service is first class. There are two communal tents, one is a comfortable lounge and the second is the dining tent where delicious and well-presented dinners are taken. Breakfast and lunch are usually taken out in the field. There are six private and spacious guest tents, each with a table and chairs and large double bed. Behind the beds is a changing area, sink, towel rack and bucket shower with hot water available on request. Storm lanterns powered by solar power provide lighting and there is a torch and alarm for emergency attention.

The locations of the camp around the park have to be agreed well in advance with the park authorities – thus the unpredictable route of the migration means that sometimes a drive is necessary to reach the best spots for wildlife observation.
