If you are climbing alone, with a partner, or with friends and want to meet other travelers worldwide, you will enjoy and benefit from joining a Kilimanjaro group. Every Kilimanjaro route has group climbs available.
If you prefer to climb on different dates or routes than our group climbs, we also offer private climbs. Feel free to contact us, and we will plan a climb that fits your schedule.
Note: The group climb dates do not include arrival and departure days. Please make sure you arrive in Moshi town one day before the climb starts.
We hand-pick our guides from a pool of only expert local guides. The guides have received extensive training in first aid and mountain rescue.
With unrivaled experience and competence, they are among the most talented and respected professionals in the industry.
Our guides have many years of combined experience in Kilimanjaro and leading many successful Kilimanjaro Joining Groups.
The ratio of guides to clients in our Kilimanjaro joining groups is one guide per two clients. This is the best way to climb Mount Kilimanjaro.
We strive to create the optimal conditions for a safe, successful climb.
Having the right number of personnel to manage the group size creates an organized team on the mountain, but more importantly, ensures proper attention for every climber.
Our focus is your safety, meaning that our top priority is to keep you out of harm’s way. Our guides perform regular health checks on all climbers, and they are ready to detect, and treat altitude sickness. We include rescue oxygen on every climb and have evacuation plans in place in case of emergencies.
We only use high-quality camping equipment to keep climbers as comfortable as possible while outdoors. Our Mountain Hardwear tents are warm, waterproof, and roomy – and perfectly suited for the rigors of Kilimanjaro. We provide thick foam sleeping pads for all clients.
