Watching the sunrise on top of Mount Kilimanjaro is a highlight – literally. The adventure of climbing Roof of Africa is an experience you will carry for the rest of your life. It is the tallest free-standing mountain but the highly accessible summit attracts amateur and professional climbers from all over the world. With preparation, focus and motivation you can beat any mental or physical barrier to reach Uhuru Peak. It is the ultimate adventure in Africa and extremely rewarding when you feel the sense of ‘freedom’ at the peak.
Safety first
Safety comes first when climbing any mountain. Therefore, your experience, personal physiology and health condition must be considered in the choice of route and number of days. In general, spending more days for acclimatizing lets you enjoy more and increase the probability of success. Our gear list helps you prepare a successful expedition with safety and comfort.
Your guide
Your designated guide is the most qualified person on Kilimanjaro, professionally trained to make the right decisions and take you safely to the top and back. Your guide works with a hand picked experienced crew, consisting of assistant guide, cook and porters.
Porters
Porters are the heart and soul of Kilimanjaro. There are few experiences as humbling as being passed by porters on a climb. They carry food, water and equipment to ensure a comfortable climb and increase chances of reaching the top for you. They are certainly among the hardest working men in Tanzania and we make sure they are rewarded properly for their efforts.
