What people love about Mount Kilimanjaro Tours
I cannot say enough good things about this company. From the initial planning to the transfer back to the airport, Almighty Kilimanjaro Travel was amazing. As you plan your trek with them, they are available to answer all questions, incredibly organized and flexible with changes. Everything was on time and exactly as planned.all the rental gear is there, you can leave behind valuables and large bags for no additional charge (they are very meticulous about caring for your valuables, I was not concerned at all). Basically, everything can be accomplished at the hotel, it makes it very seamless and easy. The room are good, breakfast is included and the property is well taken care of. . The service they provided for the trek exceeded expectations. We had 6 guides and 34 porters for 10 of us. The equipment was in good shape and top of the line. The porter's equipment was also good quality. (Some of the budget companies do not take care of their porters). The food they provided was outstanding. Pancakes and eggs for breakfast, soup and chicken or beef dishes with rice, vegetables and fruit for lunch and dinner. Many condiments, peanut butter, jelly, Nutella, etc. Hot tea and even popcorn as an appetizer. They had no problem catering to special diets and that food was amazing as well. We ate in a large tent at one big table with regular chairs, a table cloth, and plates and silverware, very civil. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and perceptive. They were very proactive about trying to keep us healthy. They watched everyone pretty closely and offered assistance if they saw you starting to struggle. We were briefed everyday on what to expect for the following day. They took the time to answer all questions and always asked for input on our plan. Everyday we are woken up with hot tea brought to the tent, nice touch. Half way though some of the day hikes they would set up a tea and biscuit table in the middle of the trail where we would stop to take a break, that was a nice touch as well. Summit night is incredibly strenuous. These are the guides that you want to assist you. They will carry your pack if need be, motivate you the whole way up and down and basically take care of you any way that they can. Almighty kilimanjaro had four other groups of 30 people that started the same day as us, EVERYONE SUMMITED, all 40 people. That was impressive. We added on a four day safari and that service was top notch as well. The accommodations that they booked for us were really unbelievable, very nice. The vehicle was comfortable with Wi-Fi available and a refrigerator. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Couple of recommendations. Rent the private toilet. This is a game changer. Getting up in the middle of the night and having it right there was very convenient and the public ones were usually a hole in the ground, far from the camp. Bring snacks, bars, trail mix, etc. You don't need a thermos, some sites I read say to have one, not necessary. 4 in our group took Diamox, 6 did not, everyone summited, it's a personal choice. On a final note, I wrote an email with a couple of suggestions, and received an immediate response directly from the owner of Almighty Kilimanjaro. Their customer service is bar none! This group really cares about their guests and you will be in the best hands.
I got Covid from someone in the group. For a high altitude hike like this, we should have been tested for Covid. It not like I could avoid it, we ate together in an enclosed tent.
We summited Kilimanjaro via the Marangu Route with Spider Tours And Safaris. 6 days on the mountain. There were 6 of us in the group with an age range from 14 to 66. Our guides Emanuel Peter and Marco were great - attentive, knowledgeable, encouraging. The chef did an excellent job keeping us fueled.The whole team, guides to porters, were very supportive and made it possible for all of us to reach the top, and we all did.

"Words cannot describe this experience. What ever expectations I had were quickly exceeded by the amazing guides and crew. The food was absolutely delicious and I loved walking up to a cup of tea. The guides made me feel safe the entire time and always supported my group. Thank you Almighty Kilimanjaro for making our dream come true.

"Booked an 8 day Lemosho hike up Kilimanjaro with Spider Tours. Communication was quick with Bryan. Pick up from the Arusha airport was waiting for me even though I arrived early. Hotel in Moshi was decent although the restaurant/ cafe called Dawn around the corner from the hotel had much better food. The hike was very well organized and they made sure I had the proper equipment and warm clothing. Spider tours took me to a rental store to obtain some warmer clothing that I did need for the hike. My guide Daniel was excellent and kept a good slow pace to acclimatize to the altitude. I did have 8 days of medicine for the altitude. Some people didn't and did not summit.. Support staff were properly equipped and very friendly. Food was plentiful with lots of tea and warm soup to start every meal. I highly recommend this local company Spider Tours and Safaris. They can change any itinerary to meet your needs and interests. I did finish the hike in 6 days instead of 8 days and Spider Tours did offer other tours to fill the extra days before my flight.

Climbing Kilimanjaro
Mount Kilimanjaro, located in Tanzania, East Africa, is the highest mountain in Africa with an elevation of 19,341 feet (5,895 meters). It is the largest free-standing mountain in the world and is one of the seven summits.
Its snow-capped peak towers above the surrounding Savannah’s and is part of the Kilimanjaro National Park, which is home to a variety of unique flora and fauna. While it is a dormant volcano, it still serves as an important source of inspiration for climbers and outdoor enthusiasts from around the world. More information about Kilimanjaro
Mount Kilimanjaro is composed of three distinct volcanic cones: Kibo 19,340 feet (5895 meters); Mawenzi 16,896 feet (5149 m); and Shira 13,000 feet (3962 m). Uhuru Peak is the highest summit on Kibo’s crater rim.
Mount Kilimanjaro is a giant stratovolcano that began forming a million years ago, when lava spilled from the Rift Valley zone. Two of its three peaks, Mawenzi and Shira, are extinct while Kibo (the highest peak) is dormant and could erupt again.
The last major eruption has been dated to 360,000 years ago, while the most recent activity was recorded just 200 years ago. Kilimanjaro has 2.2 square kilometres (0.85 sq mi) of glacial ice and is losing it quickly due to climate change. The glaciers have shrunk 82% since 1912 and declined 33% since 1989. It might be ice free within 20 years, dramatically affecting local drinking water and crop irrigation.
Who Can Climb Kilimanjaro? Anyone from children over the age of 10 to older generations in their 60s and 70s! All you need is determination and the will to get to the summit. The real challenge with climbing Kilimanjaro is the altitude and the rate of ascent. Don’t worry we will be with you every step of the way!

Hiking Kilimanjaro Routes
There are Seven main Mount Kilimanjaro routes which lead to the summit, Uhuru Peak , one of which starts on the Northern side of the mountain and the rest on the Southern side. The routes are Marangu, Machame, Lemosho, Shira, Rongai, Northern Circuit and Umbwe.
Hiking Mount Kilimanjaro takes between five to nine days in order to reach the Kilimanjaro Summit and then descend to the finishing point. The more days spent on the mountain the more likely you will summit successfully because you will become more acclimated to the altitude.
When is the best time to Climb Mount Kilimanjaro?
Mountain weather can be unpredictable, and the best time for a Kilimanjaro Hike is during the dry seasons: December to early March and June to October. We don’t climb during the height of the rainy season, for safety reasons.

Description
Join us for an unforgettable hiking adventure on Mount Kilimanjaro! Known as “the Roof of Africa” and towering over its surrounding valleys at an astounding elevation of 19,341 feet (5,985 m), Kilimanjaro is one of the “7 Summits” of the world!
At Wildland, our approach is to get our guests ‘off the beaten path’ for a fuller, more novel experience of the world’s wilderness destinations. On this trip we follow the Rongai Route which provides wonderful solitude and exposes our guests to different environments and views of the mountain before merging with the more popular Marangu route. Trekking Kilimanjaro requires no technical ability, just hiking, while the main challenge is the elevation. We have created the ideal 10-day itinerary for optimal acclimatization and a high success rate of reaching the summit.
After our Kilimanjaro hike, we provide the option for an add-on Wildlife Safari and Cultural Tour. The Wild Africa Safari visits the Maasai, Datoga and Hadzabe tribes and Wildlife Safaris in Tanzania’s famous Serengeti, Lake Manyara, and Ngorongoro National Parks.
*Itinerary Note: Wildland Trekking stands alone in providing a complete experience on Kilimanjaro. We have a well-tested acclimatization process to increase your chances of a successful summit attempt. Your Kilimanjaro itinerary is not just a climb of the mountain but also includes an extra rest day after your travels in Tanzania to experience the local culture. Many companies economize by getting you in and out as quickly as possible, and that is the opposite of the Wildland approach.

Learn About Our Private Trips
Jambo and welcome to Tanzania! Today is arrival day. The Wildland team will pick you up from the airport and shuttle you to our hotel for the next 2 nights in the nearby city of Moshi. Here, you can rest from your travels by the pool, in your room with a lovely veranda, or at the enjoy food and drinks at the restaurant. If we are lucky, the clouds will dissipate and allow us our first glimpse of Mount Kilimanjaro during sunset. After we enjoy dinner together, your lead guide will conduct a full orientation meeting to review the itinerary specifics, gear & packing details, health considerations, and answer any questions. Be sure to drink copious amounts of water throughout the day, as flying and traveling can dehydrate you. Self-care begins immediately.
- Hiking Mileage: 3.1 miles (5km)
- Elevation Gain/Loss: Minimal
- Trekking Duration: ~3 hours
- Driving Time: 1 hour
After breakfast at the hotel, we will shuttle to the base of Mount Kilimanjaro to the village of Materuni. Here, we will set out on a light hike to an amazing waterfall along the Mware River. Today’s hike helps with acclimatization while not being too strenuous after your long travels. Materuni Falls, born from melting ice and snow flowing from the top of the mountain, plunges over 220 feet (67 meters)! At these majestic falls we’ll enjoy a relaxing break, a swim if you like, and a delicious picnic lunch before heading back to the village. We’ll then visit a coffee farm and see how Arabica and Robust coffee beans are grown by the Chagga people. They are known to be the best farmers in Tanzania. You will be served a delicious cup of rich and aromatic coffee. After enjoying this cultural treat, we’ll head back to the hotel to relax before dinner. Get some rest; tomorrow our expedition begins!
- Hiking Mileage: 4.1 miles (6.6km)
- Elevation Gain: 2,075 feet (632m)
- Elevation Loss: 50 feet (15m)
- Trekking Duration: 3-4 hours
Today is the official start of our expedition to climb Kilimanjaro! We head out on a roughly 3-hour drive to the village of Nale Moru where our trek begins. In Nale Moru, after meeting our entire crew and team, we will have a hot lunch. Our porters will get our personal gear organized and packed for the hike, and then we begin the trek! We’ll start hiking on a path that climbs gently and consistently through the beautiful, temperate forests that drape the foothills of Kilimanjaro. Along the way, we may have opportunities to view some wildlife: Colobus Monkeys are often abundant along with many species of birds, reptiles and gazelles. We continue hiking until we arrive at Simba Camp (8,650 ft./2,636 m.) for the night. Facing North, we’ll have stunning views of the plains of Kenya while we enjoy a delicious meal and a relaxing evening.
- Hiking Mileage: 3.5 miles (5.6km)
- Elevation Gain: 2,765 feet (843m)
Waking up on Kilimanjaro with Wildland means getting a hot drink of your choice delivered to your tent and a warm bowl of water to wash your hands and face. What a way to start the day! Then comes a nutritious breakfast to fuel our day’s activities. Today we head up the trail and immediately have outstanding views of Kibo Peak and the Eastern Ice Fields sitting on the crater rim. Arriving at Second Cave Camp (11,415 ft./3,480 m.) by lunch allows us to relax for a bit and give our bodies time to acclimatize before an afternoon walk to higher elevations, which helps us further our acclimatization process. Everything we do on the mountain is designed to prepare us for our summit bid. This includes constant self-care, proper acclimatization practices, and hiking “pole, pole”, translated “slowly, slowly” in Swahili.
- Hiking Mileage: 3.6 miles (5.8km)
- Elevation Gain: 1,060 feet (323m)
- Elevation Loss: 415 feet (126m)
- Trekking Duration: 4 hours
After our morning drinks and full breakfast, we will pack up to hike towards the jagged peaks of Mawenzi. Our hike through the open moorlands continues until we reach a small set of caves created by past historic lava flows. We will briefly explore these caves (optional) before making our last push to Kikelewa Camp (12,175’/3,711m) and our awaiting lunch. Again, arriving to camp by lunch allows time to recuperate and relax before another afternoon acclimatization hike. The views from tonight’s camp are spectacular and the sunset not to be missed. As darkness falls, the lights in small, far off Kenyan villages dot the landscape below us. Warm dinner and drinks are served before the nightly briefing and health check by your guide.
- Hiking Mileage: 2.2 miles (3.5km)
- Elevation Gain: 2,080 feet (634m)
- Elevation Loss: 30 feet (9m)
- Trekking Duration: 4-5 hours
On this morning, we depart Kikelewa Cave and ascend to Mawenzi Tarn camp (14,120 ft./4,304 m.). The hike today is relatively short, and we will make it to camp before lunch once again. The views from this campsite are absolutely stunning. After a hot lunch, we will enjoy an acclimatization hike in the surrounding area and take in more of the views from our incredible vantage point. We will be back at camp with time to wash up before dinner is served.
- Hiking Mileage: 5.2 miles (8.4km)
- Elevation Gain: 1,720 feet (524m)
- Elevation Loss: 400 feet (122m)
- Trekking Duration: 6 hours
We leave camp early with beautiful views of Mawenzi and Kibo Peaks after a full breakfast. Above 14,000 feet, it can be challenging to hike, so we will take our time and begin trekking across the high-altitude desert to our basecamp at Kibo Hut (15,425 ft./4,702 m.). Upon our arrival at basecamp, we will eat lunch and then rest in our tents before an early dinner is served. After dinner, your guides will conduct a final briefing and health check. Then, we turn in to get our final rest and sleep before our summit attempt. We will be waking up around 11:30 pm to enjoy hot drinks and snacks before starting our ascent to the Kilimanjaro summit at Uruhu Peak!
Summit Attempt Optional Hike:
- Hiking Mileage: 6 miles (9.7km)
- Elevation Gain/Loss: 4,050 feet (1,235m)
As we begin our summit attempt, we’ll only bring what we need. Typically, the sky is clear and filled with stars. It is a very peaceful time to be on the mountain. We’ll continue hiking with our goal to reach the edge of the crater at Gillman’s Point (18,652 ft./5,685 m.). Next, we will traverse the crater rim to Stella Point (18,885 ft./5,756 m.), where a few trails converge to start the final ascent to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, Uhuru Peak (19,341 ft./5,895 m.). At the summit we’ll soak up the gratification of our achievement. Looking down towards the valleys and forests surrounding Kilimanjaro as the sun rises, most hikers feel this is one of the most memorable half-hours of their lives. After we take our photos at Uhuru Peak, we’ll begin our decent back to basecamp.
Kibo Hut to Horombo Hut Hike:
- Hiking Mileage: 5.6 miles (9km)
- Elevation Gain: 80 feet (24m)
- Elevation Loss: 3,190 feet (972m)

Upon arrival at basecamp, we will rest and have lunch before beginning our 3-hour, gentle descent to Horombo camp (12,300 ft./3,749 m.) along the famous and popular Marangu route. NOTE: This is a very long day, and most guests are very tired upon reaching basecamp and then walking to Horombo.
- Hiking Mileage: 12.1 miles (19.5km)
- Elevation Gain: 220 feet (67m)
- Elevation Loss: 6,350 feet (1,935m)
- Trekking Duration: 6-8 hours
- Accommodations: Kilimanjaro Wonders Hotel
Today is the last day of our trek on Mt. Kilimanjaro and it’s a long beautiful hike through a constantly changing landscape. Along the way, we stop at the Mandara Huts for a long break before continuing down. This tropical area often has groups of Blue monkeys and possibly the rarer Colobus monkeys. We’ll be descending to where the Marangu route begins/ends at the Marangu gate entrance of the Park. Here we’ll have a hot lunch upon our arrival. For those guests who made it to the summit of Kilimanjaro, climbed to Stella Point or Gilliman’s Point, you will collect official certificates from Kilimanjaro National Park before saying goodbye to your mountain crew — in classic Kilimanjaro style with songs and dancing!
Tonight, we get back to our accommodations in Moshi and have one final celebratory dinner capping off this adventure of a lifetime!
For guests only joining our Kilimanjaro Trek, you will be transported back to Kilimanjaro International Airport today. For guests joining our Wild Africa Safari , today is Day 1 of the Safari itinerary, so we will leave early and transfer to our first day’s activities.
Optional Add-on Safari
Make the most of your time in Africa with an add-on Safari tour that takes place after your trek to Kilimanjaro (on Day 10)! 6 days in length and all-inclusive, our Safari Add-on tour is an opportunity to experience Africa’s amazing wildlife and unique, colorful cultures. Click here to read more about our Add-on Safari Tour!
Wildland Trekking stands alone in providing a complete experience on Kilimanjaro. We have a well-tested acclimatization process to increase your chances of summiting. Your Kilimanjaro trek is not just a climb of the mountain but also includes an extra rest day to experience the local culture. Many companies economize by getting you in and out as quickly as possible, and that is the opposite of the Wildland approach.
Please Note : We always do everything in our power to follow the set itinerary, however occasionally trips are subject to itinerary changes based on a variety of circumstances, including but not limited to: lodging/campground availability, extreme weather, political or bureaucratic obstacles, earthquakes, fires, flooding and more. Normal terms and conditions apply to trips with itinerary changes.

Travel to Kilimanjaro International Airport
Booking flights.
For our Kilimanjaro Trek you will need to arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport (near Moshi, Tanzania, airport code JRO) on the day the trip begins, no later than 4 P.M. Your guide will rendezvous with you at the airport and transport you to our hotel for the first 2 nights, Kilimanjaro Wonders Hotel. The shuttle from the airport to the resort is usually 45 minutes-1 hour. There will only be one airport shuttle departure for the group. Your return flight should be scheduled for the final day of the tour after 9 A.M and only one group shuttle is planned for the group.
If you would like a shuttle to/from the airport at a different time, please contact the Adventure Consultant team to arrange a private shuttle for you.
Flights to and from Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) are the guest’s responsibility. Multiple airlines operate connecting flights into JRO, but we recommend connecting through Amsterdam or Qatar. Most international airports in the U.S., Australia, Canada and Europe have flights that fly to these five connecting cities. The total travel time varies from 14 to 30 hours depending on the origin and number and duration of layovers.
Please Note: We recommend not flying with Kenya Airways because the connecting flight from Nairobi is often changed or cancelled, and they have a poor track record with losing luggage.
Porter Team
Anyone who has climbed to the summit of Kilimanjaro could not have achieved this goal without the tremendous support and effort made by local porters and guides. It takes a team, not an individual, to reach the summit of Africa and we have the upmost respect and fondness of every member of our expedition teams. Throughout Kilimanjaro’s climbing history and sadly still today, some porters do not receive the support and care from certain segments of the industry that they tirelessly deliver climb after climb to adventure travelers from all over the world.
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours mt kilimanjaro hiking tours](https://wildlandtrekking.com/content/uploads/2020/03/KPAP-logo-png.png)
We voluntarily participate with KPAP’s monitoring activities and allow KPAP to evaluate the treatment of our porters on all of our climbs. By climbing with us you can be assured that your porters are well taken care of.
KPAP also helps to improve the working conditions of porters by:
- Lending donated clothing at no charge to the mountain crew for use while climbing
- Educating the public on porter working conditions and climbing responsibly
- Providing industry guidelines for proper porter treatment
- Offering educational classes to porters
Please consider supporting KPAP by making a financial contribution to enable them to continue with their Partner for Responsible Travel Program and free services for porters. To make a donation, please visit https://kiliporters.org/
Safety Precautions
Your safety is our top priority. Our hiking tours are led by professional hiking guides, all of whom are wilderness-certified first responders or EMT’s, each with years of guiding and wilderness experience. Guides adhere to standardized risk management protocols in case of any potential or actual incident, and all tours carry an emergency communication device and comprehensive first-aid kit. Additionally we have a “24/7” system through which guides or guests can reach Wildland support personnel at any time.
In the interest of your safety, it’s important to refer to the Center for Disease Control website for up-to-date recommendations on immunizations before your trip.
Essential Eligibility Criteria
Essential Eligibility Criteria (“EEC”) have been specifically identified to help you understand the skills and abilities necessary to participate on each Wildland trip, and they apply uniformly to all potential trip participants, irrespective of the presence or absence of any disability.
Once you identify a trip in which you may be interested, please carefully review the EEC and itinerary details. If after reviewing the EEC that apply to your desired trip, you determine you need an accommodation in order to meet the EEC, please contact us prior to registering to discuss your requested accommodation.
The EEC exist for your own safety and the safety and enjoyment of all participants. If you are unable to meet the EEC for the trip, with or without an accommodation, you are not eligible for that trip. If you register and arrive for a trip for which you do not meet the EEC, you will be disqualified from participation on the trip and will be dismissed or evacuated from the trip without a refund.
Our approach to international travel is to combine the best of two worlds: the dialed-in details, professionalism and consistency Wildland trips are known for; and the cultural immersion and intimate regional knowledge that only locals can provide. To excel with this approach, we vet and hire the best local guides, welcome them into the Wildland family and train them to meet our standard of excellence with every aspect of a trip. But along with managing logistics and safety, your guides will teach you about the area’s history and culture, and provide a level of familiarity and intimate detail only locals can.
Check out our Meet Our Team page for staff bios.

Weather on Kilimanjaro
The temperatures on Mount Kilimanjaro vary tremendously from hot and exposed to quite cold. The trek from the national park entrance to the summit is the climatic equivalent of traveling from Brazilian rain forests to the Arctic in just a couple days. We will hike through 4 different ecological zones, representing a massive range of temperatures as we ascend toward the summit. Temperatures will be warm in Moshi.

Trip of a Lifetime
This was my 5th trip with Wildland, and I continue to come back for the amazing memories they help create. The trip to Kilimanjaro was no different. As always, the people made the trip. We had the most incredible guides and support staff. They are truly superhuman. On the trail, during dinner, and just hanging out they make you smile. They encourage you up the mountain with songs, and there to help provide you the highest success rate possible. The tipping ceremony at the end is extra special as we all come together to share our final dinner and say goodbyes. This is a trip of a lifetime, and Wildland will make sure you always remember it.
Amazing Trip
A trip of a lifetime made even more outstanding by the care of Wildland. The team that guided us up the mountain anticipated our every need and gave us an amazing trip. I cannot wait for the next trip!
I can't wait for my next Wildland trip!
This trip was incredible! Seeing the diversity of vegetation and stark beauty of the summit crater were some of the highlights of my life thus far. Guides, porters, food, transportation and all accommodations were top notch. Highly recommend!

Everything You Need to Know
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours A group of hikers.](https://www.wildernesstravel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/kilimanjaro-summit-hikers-410x232.jpg)
We consider the Northern Circuit Route the best route to the summit. Why? It is the most scenic and least-traveled route up Kilimanjaro. With a full seven days on the ascent, this route also provides maximum time for acclimatization and therefore the greatest chance of reaching to top—we have a 98% summit success rate!
We give a detailed summary all the different climbing options on Kilimanjaro, and explain the difference between each.
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours A group of people hiking in Kilimanjaro.](https://www.wildernesstravel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/kilimanjaro-hiking-group-410x232.jpg)
As with most mountain areas, the weather on Kilimanjaro can change abruptly so you need to be ready for these sudden changes. Kilimanjaro was described by NOVA as “a world in miniature” where you can “journey from dry fields and farms into steaming jungles, then up through exotic heaths and moorlands to an alpine desert and finally a glaciated summit.”
The snow line usually begins at 17,000′ or 18,000′, but a sudden storm may bring it as low as 14,000′. Daytime temperatures range from the 50s to the 70sºF at altitudes from 7,500′, where we start the climb, to about 12,000′. Above this altitude, daytime temperatures are lower, ranging from the high teens to low 40s, and evening temperatures can drop to 10ºF or even lower.
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours A group of travelers examining a map together.](https://www.wildernesstravel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/kilimanjaro-map-410x232.jpg)
With any hiking adventure, it’s important to be adequately prepared both mentally and physically. If possible, start training several months before departure. Increasing your cardio routine will improve your stamina on the mountain. Activities like hiking, running, using a StairMaster, or bike-riding are great choices and, when combined, can really help boost your fitness levels. Increase your strength and endurance with weight and resistance workouts. Hiking with a 10-20 pound daypack is the most beneficial activity.
We have designed our 9-day climb route with successful acclimatization in mind. The summit of Kilimanjaro, at 19,341 feet, is considered extreme high altitude. As you climb the mountain, the air becomes less compressed and contains fewer molecules of oxygen per breath. At the summit of Kilimanjaro, there is 50% of the air pressure there is at sea level. You will greatly improve your safety and enjoyment of the climb if you:
- Make your best efforts to arrive physically fit and gear up with the appropriate clothing.
- Keep well hydrated throughout your time on the mountain (Drink. Drink. Drink! You need 4-5 liters of water per day to counteract the effects of altitude!).
- Maintain your energy by eating the good meals we will prepare for you.
- Hike at a pace slow enough such that you can maintain it for hours a time (you want to avoid “racing and resting”).
- Be aware of the symptoms of AMS (your Trip Leader will also review them with you).
- It is highly recommended that you request a prescription for Diamox (Acetazolamide) from your physician.
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours A campsite with tents.](https://www.wildernesstravel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/kilimanjaro-campsite-tents-410x232.jpg)
Wilderness Travel offers full-service camping on Kilimanjaro. Most trip members are pleasantly surprised by the comfort of our mountain camps considering we’re on a high altitude expedition! We use three-person tents for only two people, ensuring a fair amount of space for sleeping. We serve meals in a large solar-lit dining tent with table and chairs with back support. The dining tent is a nice place to relax and socialize while drinking tea or coffee in the evening. Our mountain staff is highly trained and will take care of all the logistics so you can relax and enjoy the climb.
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours A group of travelers in Kilimanjaro enjoying a meal together.](https://www.wildernesstravel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/kilimanjaro-meal-410x232.jpg)
You’ll be climbing the highest peak in Africa—the food that fuels you is an essential ingredient in your summit success. Meals should be high in calories with the proper balance of complex carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats to help sustain your increased level of exertion. We’ve designed our menus to include the right nutrition to keep you going on the climb, with three hearty meals a day, plus tasty trail snacks—the simple sugars in these are helpful in providing a boost of energy to keep you going. We provide a sample menu and further details below!
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours A man using an oxygen mask at Mt. Kilimanjaro.](https://www.wildernesstravel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/kilimanjaro-safety-1-410x232.jpg)
Climbing Kilimanjaro is a rigorous, but non-technical, hike that goes to high altitudes. All travel in the mountains involves inherent dangers, which can never be totally controlled. With that said, seeing to your safety is our primary concern. See below for the steps we take, the equipment we bring, and the rigorous training we put all our guides through to ensure your safety on the mountain.

Ethical Treatment of Porters
For a group of 10 climbers, we typically have a crew of 55 or more porters! We are one of the few companies to provide full medical coverage and workers’ compensation for all staff members, and strictly ensure no crew member has to carry more than 42 pounds on any day. Many of our standards regarding salaries, training, and overall welfare of porters have been adopted by the Kilimanjaro Porters Assistance Project (KPAP, which monitors standards for porter wages, load weight limits, medical care, and appropriate attire) as their example of ideal industry standards.
REVIEWS FROM OUR CLIENTS
Wilderness Travel’s route up Kilimanjaro was far better and more interesting than the major highways used by most trekkers. We were the only group at many campsites and felt like we were the only people on that magnificent mountain.
Wow. I was blown away by the quality of the food and lodging during the Kilimanjaro expedition. This was due to the very hard work of the many experienced, talented, and excellent porters and staff members who accompanied us on the mountain. The head cooks, in particular, went above and beyond in crafting healthy, delicious menus that sustained us on our journey.
A trip of a lifetime that far exceeded my expectations. The route was truly spectacular, which we appreciated more on our descent and saw what other climbers experienced on their way to the summit. We could not have asked for better guides, who provided individual attention to each climber to give them what they needed and to ensure all were successful in reaching the summit. Unforgettable memories!
It was an indescribable, life-affirming experience that I will always cherish. In particular, I wanted to commend your selection of Trip Leaders. Their skill, thoughtfulness, and dedication made the entire trip seem effortless even though the challenge was great.
An outstanding itinerary, giving us time not only to acclimatize but also to enjoy the many wonders of the mountain, which go well beyond just the summit (spectacular as that is).
Perfect is the only way to describe my experience with your company. Our Trip Leader was a real gem, and the hotels, porters, tents, food—wow! Thanks for a great trip.

Summiting Kilimanjaro is a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience for most travelers. To make it to the top, you’ll have to put in long hours of training, spend thousands of dollars, and take a lot of vacation time. It’s not a journey you can (or should) attempt alone, and it would be heartbreaking to travel all that way and not reach your goal. That’s why choosing the right tour company to climb Kilimanjaro is the most important part of your trip.
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours Mount Kilimanjaro seen from a distance over the African savanna](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/AdobeStock_196682381-1024x576.jpeg.webp)
All companies featured on this list are approved partners with the Kilimanjaro Porters Assistance Project (KPAP), which monitors the treatment of porters on the mountain to ensure that they are paid fairly, do not carry excessively heavy loads, and are provided with comfortable accommodations and three meals a day during the trek.
Wildland Trekking
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours Four images showing a tour group progressing throughout a hike up Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/wildland-trekking-1-1024x734.jpg.webp)
Wildland Trekking aims to get guests away from the crowds on Kilimanjaro’s slopes, and starts their trips on the Rongai Route before merging with the more popular Marangu Route. Wildland’s 10-day journey includes plenty of time for acclimatization, which is crucial for hiking at high altitudes.
As Wildland says, “It takes a team, not an individual to reach the summit of Africa,” and the company truly values and invests in its porters.
10 Trips Millennial Travelers Will Love
Exodus Travels
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours People hiking Mount Kilimanjaro at sunset (top), a man sitting on a rock and looking over the view from Kilimanjaro (bottom left), and a view of the landscape near Kilimanjaro (bottom right)](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/exodus-travels-1024x571.jpg.webp)
Exodus Travels offers trips on two different routes on Kilimanjaro, the scenic Rongai Route and the slightly longer Lemosho Route. (Pick the Lemosho Route for the best chance of success—Exodus Travels has a 96 percent summit rate on this trail).
Spend summit night under a full moon by choosing one of Exodus’ full moon departure trips, or opt for a woman-powered trek with an all-female crew trip.
Abercrombie & Kent
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours Group hiking an icy area on Mount Kilimanjaro at sunset](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/africa-tanzania-kili-climbers-mh-1024x615.jpg.webp)
Abercrombie & Kent (A&K) boasts an incredibly high summit rate, with 97 percent of clients making it to the top. (The average success rate on Kilimanjaro is 60-70 percent.)
The secret to A&K’s success lies in its preparation. Every climb will feature first-rate safety and emergency equipment (including oxygen and a portable altitude chamber), proper nutrition in the form of fresh food, and comfortable campsites complete with private toilets.
Every A&K guide on its Kilimanjaro trips are certified Wilderness First Responders—and most have completed over 200 summits.
The 5 Most Amazing Jungle Adventures in the World
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours Mount Kilimanjaro at sunset (left) and hiking group climbing Mount Kilimanjaro (right)](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/MT-Sobek-1024x499.jpg.webp)
Every year, MT Sobek operates an annual Wilderness First Responder and Wilderness First Aid training in Tanzania to ensure their guides are prepared for anything on the mountain.
When you are focused on the summit, you might forget to consider the scenery along the way. Fortunately, MT Sobek has done the research for you, and follows a unique trail over the Machame Route, through the Great Barranco Valley, and over the Western Breach for some of the most beautiful views on the mountain. This path also allows for plenty of time to acclimatize (including spending the night in Kibo’s crater before making the summit push), contributing to the company’s 98 percent success rate.
Intrepid Travel
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours Hiking group and guide setting off on hike up Mount Kilimanjaro](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Intrepid-Kilimanjaro-1024x510.jpg.webp)
Not a fan of camping? Sign up for Intrepid Travel’s Marangu Route trip , which overnights in mountain huts along the way instead of tents. Machame Route treks are also available, as are trips that combine Kilimanjaro with a relaxing safari.
Intrepid Travel operates with a strict ratio of one guide for every two clients.
Ultimate Kilimanjaro
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours Close up of hiker's legs (top left), tents on Mount Kilimanjaro (top right), hiker walking up mountainous path (bottom left), and Mount Kilimanjaro hiking guide (bottom right)](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/ultimate-kilimanjaro-1024x676.jpg.webp)
Ultimate Kilimanjaro helped Anne Lorimor become the oldest person in the world to climb Kilimanjaro—so the odds are good that they can help you reach the top as well.
The company has been leading trips up the mountain for over 15 years and leads over 150 climbs annually.
The 7 Most Beautiful Places on Earth
Pristine Trails Adventures & Safaris
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours Signs on Mount Kilimanjaro (left) and tents pitched in front of Mount Kilimanjaro (right)](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/pristine-kilimanjaro-1024x510.jpg.webp)
Pristine Trails Adventures & Safaris is locally-owned. Owner Edward Lyimo was born and raised in Tanzania and worked at another tour company before deciding to start his own operation. Under the “Pristine Promise” all guides have extensive experience (and are Wilderness First Responder certified). Guides and cooks are re-trained each year during the low season.
Guests will sleep in roomy Mountain Hardwear tents during the trek, atop local-made sleeping mats that will increase their comfort levels.
World Expeditions
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours Hiking group climbing Kilimanjaro (left), woman pointing to the summit sign on Mount Kilimanjaro and smiling (top right), and hiking group viewed at a distance (bottom right)](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/world-expeditions-1024x510.jpg.webp)
Leave Kilimanjaro better than you found it on a trip with World Expeditions . This eco-minded company asks its guests to pick up 10 pieces of litter each day of the trek, helping to keep the mountain pristine.
World Expeditions has been offering Kilimanjaro treks for over 25 years, and is one of just a few companies that offer trips up the less-crowded Shira Route and Northern Circuit.
Are Groupon Travel Deals Really a Bargain?
G Adventures
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours Multiple views of a hiking group summiting Mount Kilimanjaro](https://www.smartertravel.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/G-Adventures-Kilimanjaro-1024x510.jpg.webp)
Kilimanjaro trips are expensive, but budget-minded travelers can find some good deals with G Adventures . G Adventures hikes are a little more basic than the others on this list (you won’t find private toilet tents on these expeditions.) However, G Adventures’ summit rates are still very high, varying from 90 percent to 96 percent depending on the route.
There are lots of Kilimanjaro trips to choose from with G Adventures, including tours that combine Kilimanjaro, Serengeti, and Zanzibar.

Hiking Kilimanjaro
Kilimanjaro trekking, africa’s rooftop patio.
- Inca Trail tours
- Kilimanjaro
Ever stood on the top floor of a skyscraper and thought, “Bah, this ain’t so tall”? Then you might just be Kilimanjaro material. Join us as we walk in the bootprints of famed explorers and mountaineers on our way to the top of Africa’s tallest peak, hiking through lush rainforests and alpine deserts, across glaciers by day and sleeping closer to the stars than you ever dreamed possible by night. Over 1,500 trekkers make the ascent with us each year, and we’d love to help you to the top.
Kilimanjaro: Four ways to the top
Kilimanjaro is no picnic, but unlike other massive peaks, it gives those daring enough to climb it multiple routes to the top. Consult our route map to see which one’s right for you.
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours mt kilimanjaro hiking tours](https://media.gadventures.com/media-server/dynamic/admin/content_pages/ACTIVE_2016-map-Kili.jpg)
Kilimanjaro Trekking FAQ
Will the altitude affect us.
The air at the summit contains about half of the breathable oxygen most of us are used to at sea level. Everyone will handle the high altitude and thinner air differently and to varying degrees, which is why we try to keep the ascent slow and steady. The more time you give yourself to acclimatize, the easier your attempt at the summit will be.
What will we eat?
You’ll need energy to make that push to the top, and our camp cooks make certain that there’s plenty of healthy, quality food on hand. Our team of porters carries the equipment and supplies (including fresh produce), and meals consist of local and international cuisine. Our cooks can accommodate special requests, but please let us know when you book.
What are the conditions like?
As the highest peak in Africa (and the tallest freestanding mountain in the entire world), Kili is home to a variety of ecosystems and microclimataes. Everything from tropical forests to subzero alpine environments await up here, and the weather can switch from pleasant to inclement at a moment’s notice, so come prepared for anything.
Where will we sleep?
On all routes excluding the Marangu Route, we offer full-service camping. Apart from a sleeping bag and pillow (which can be rented), you don’t need to bring anything else. Your three-season tent, complete with built-in vestibule and mesh insect netting, will be pitched for you, and we’ll provide you with a 4cm-thick (1.6 in) mattress free of charge.
On the Marangu Route, you’ll stay in wooden A-frame huts with single beds and simple mattresses. Space on the mountain is limited, so prepare for the possibility of sharing your hut with non-G Adventures trekkers and/or members of the opposite sex. All huts are equipped with shared toilets and washing facilities.
I’ve never trekked before. Is that a problem?
While Kili is no cakewalk, it’s a perfectly achievable hike for healthy travellers with a moderate degree of physical fitness. That said, we do recommend that you do some advance training. The best way to prepare is to hike and hill-walk wherever you can in the weeks leading up to your departure in order to build up your stamina and climbing muscles. (A stair-climber at the gym is a good alternative if you don’t have any mountains at the ready.) Start training six months out. With a little preparation, you should get to the top without much trouble.

Africa’s tallest peak creates an instantly recognisable silhouette.
Rising from the acacia forests and scrublands at the border of Kenya and Tanzania . At 5,896m, the world’s tallest freestanding mountain can seem imposing, but that doesn’t mean it’s out of reach. Our Kilimanjaro tours are made to suit your experience and fitness levels, getting you to the summit with the best team possible. The climb will be challenging! But when you sit at the summit with the sprawling savanna far below, you realise the simple truth: it was all worth it.
Our Kilimanjaro trips
Let's create an exclusive trip for your group.
Which route is right for you?
Despite being longer and more arduous than the Marangu and Rongai trails, the Machame route has emerged in recent years as a popular choice for trekkers. The 40 kilometre trail passes through cloud forests and moorland zones to the glaciated precipices of Kibo’s south face. Unlike the Marangu and Rongai routes, trekkers descend via the Mweka route – a steep but scenic path through dry mountain desert and lowland forest.
A trail that winds along the north-eastern side of the mountain near the Kenyan border, Rongai offers up a different side to Africa’s most famous mountain. The route attracts a lower number of climbers than Marangu and Machame, which means the wilderness feels particularly pristine. Fewer people mean there’s a greater chance of seeing wildlife on the Rongai trail than on the other routes. This route also approaches Mount Kilimanjaro through rural heartlands, allowing trekkers to see Chagga village life.
This five-day climb is the most popular and direct of the Kilimanjaro routes, passing through vast grasslands, giant cacti fields and alpine meadows set against dramatic mountain peaks. It’s also the only route where camping is not needed, with trekkers sleeping in huts dotted along the way. The 35 kilometre uphill walk is well maintained and the views from the summit are striking. As the Marangu route is shorter, the period to acclimatise is also shortened and this has an impact on the trail's overall success rate.
Why choose us
Our Kilimanjaro trek leaders have been voted among the best Intrepid Group leaders in the world and we have a leading reputation within the travel industry.
All our guides and trek leaders have been trained by independent, UK-based medical specialists and are proficient in first aid. They also carry oxygen cylinders on all treks for emergency use.
Our staff live and work in the Mount Kilimanjaro area, which means revenue from all our treks benefit the local economy.
There’s no hidden costs or ‘catches’ in our prices. All tours include sleeping bags, sleeping mat, camping and safety equipment, emergency oxygen and porterage of 1 bag (up to 15kgs). We also include Kilimanjaro National Park entrance fees, climbing fees, camping and hut fees, and insurance for rescue services (just in case!)
Each of our treks begin with a briefing from our experienced English-speaking guide. On the road we operate on a 2:1 principle – that means we have one guide for every two climbers. Your crew will also be joined by dedicated cooks and porters.
We strive to use travel as a force for good. That’s why we choose to give back to the communities we visit, carbon offset all our trips and take our social and environmental responsibilities seriously. We’ve been officially certified as the world’s largest travel B Corp, which means when you choose Intrepid Travel, you can rest assured you’re travelling to improve the planet.

Kilimanjaro travel FAQs
Do i need a covid-19 vaccine to join an intrepid trip.
Trips from 1 January 2023 onwards
From 1 January 2023, Intrepid will no longer require travellers to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 (excluding all Polar trips and select adventure cruises).
However, we continue to strongly recommend that all Intrepid travellers and leaders get vaccinated to protect themselves and others.
Specific proof of testing or vaccination may still be required by your destination or airline. Please ensure you check travel and entry requirements carefully.
Are there age restrictions for trekking Mount Kilimanjaro?
The regulations for climbing Mount Kilimanjaro specify a minimum age of 10 years, with no maximum age, however all Intrepid travellers are required to be over 15 years old.
While there is no maximum age for climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, it is important to remember that the climb is strenuous and presents health risks, especially to people in high risk categories.
Serious consideration should be given to anyone under the age of 18 and over the age of 60.
Will the altitude affect me?
The summit of Mount Kilimanjaro is above 5,800m. At this altitude it’s common for travellers to experience some adverse health effects – regardless of your age, gender or fitness. It even happened to Sir Edmund Hillary!
Everyone will adapt to the altitude and thinning air differently. This is why we always try to keep the ascent slow and steady, to allow your body to acclimatise and make your journey to the summit easier.
Some pre-existing medical conditions are known to severely worsen at high altitude and be difficult to adequately treat on the ground, leading to more serious consequences. It is imperative that you discuss your pre-existing medical condition/s with your doctor.
What will I eat?
To reach the summit you’re going to need the right fuel, which is why our cooks will be providing delicious and nutritious meals throughout your trek.
Our porters carry all the equipment and supplies we need and you’ll be treated to some local dishes.
We can accommodate food allergies and dietary requests but please tell us when you book.
It’s also a good idea to bring your own extra comfort snacks from home to keep your energy levels up during more difficult sections of the trail.
What will I drink?
While on the trek, your guides will boil and cool 3 litres of water for you per day. This will ensure the water is safe to drink and you stay hydrated on the trek.
We recommend you pack 3 x 1 litre refillable water bottles. Please note disposable plastic containers are not allowed on the mountain.
Where will I sleep on Mount Kilimanjaro?
Your accommodation will vary depending on the route you choose.
On the Machame and Rongai route you’ll be camping out under the stars with a full-service camping experience.
You don’t need to bring anything except your enthusiasm. Our two-person tents are ideal for expedition trips and feature a flysheet made from ripstop nylon, anti-mosquito netting, reflective guy ropes and a 3000mm waterhead, ensuring you stay warm and dry even in difficult conditions.
If you choose to trek the Marangu route you’ll enjoy basic but comfortable accommodation in wooden A-frame huts with single beds and simple mattresses.
Due to limited accommodation on the mountain, you may need to share a hut with non-Intrepid passengers and/or members of the opposite sex.
These sleeping huts are not equipped with facilities however there are seperate bathroom huts containing shared toilets and washing facilities.
What if I’ve never trekked before?
Although no mountaineering experience is required, a good level of physical fitness is necessary. You’ll need to be comfortable walking 6-8 hours uphill a day.
The distances may not be long but the altitude makes it harder than your average uphill hike.
We recommend increasing your aerobic exercise in the months leading up to the climb, such as by walking, running or climbing stairs.
There is plenty of time available each day to get between huts or camping sites so there is no need to rush, in fact the slower you go the more time your body has to adapt and the more you’ll enjoy the experience.
What should I pack for Mount Kilimanjaro?
Although a guide will always accompany you on the trail, you are unlikely to see your porter (as they are very fast!) except at the huts or the camps. Therefore it is important you carefully pack a smaller day pack you carry yourself. Anything you need during the course of the day should be in your day pack including, most importantly, something warm and something waterproof.
From 2019 your maximum gear allowance is 9 kg. At the welcome meeting you will be provided with a duffel/kit bag to transfer your hiking luggage into. This waterproof bag minimises the weight your porter needs to carry and allows you to store excess luggage at the hotel.
Light clothing is generally sufficient until you reach the 3-4000 metre altitude range provided you always have something warm and waterproof in your daypack. Beyond these altitudes, even if the mornings are glorious, you must always be ready for dramatic changes in the weather, including snow storms. You must have clothing with you in your daypack adequate to the conditions. Please ensure your day pack is large enough to carry these clothes, your lunch box, 3 litres of water and any other items such as camera equipment. Warm clothing is important for the final ascent. The ascents are done at night and this is when the coldest temperatures are experienced. You must be prepared for temperatures of minus 25 degrees celsius. As a rule you should wear two pairs of socks, two-three layers on the legs and four-five layers on top. A balaclava or neck gaiter and woolly hat are necessary to keep the head warm, while gloves and sunglasses are also needed.
Note: the bag the porter carries for you should not exceed 9 kg. If bags are too heavy items may have to be removed or the climber may choose to hire an additional porter.

When is the best time to visit Mount Kilimanjaro?
Kilimanjaro's location near the equator is a great advantage, with very little seasonal variation in climbing conditions.
The rainy seasons from March to May and November to December may make the track a little slippery.
Generally speaking, January, February and September are considered the best times to climb the mountain.
What will the weather be like at Mount Kilimanjaro?
Part of what makes Kilimanjaro so unique is the diversity of ecosystems and micro-climates on its slopes. This same benefit is what makes predicting conditions a challenge.
You should trek expecting everything from tropical rainforests to sub-zero landscapes. The weather is prone to shift without warning and it is best to be prepared for all possibilities.
What are the toilet facilities like at Mount Kilimanjaro?
In a word? Improving. Until recently the toilet facilities left much to be desired but thankfully the park authorities have started to tackle the problem.
Some state-of-the-art eco-toilets have now been built at the major campsites.
There is the option to arrange a toilet tent for the entire trip. Please speak to your booking agent about the cost of this service.
What is the average success rate for climbing Mount Kilimanjaro?
The success of each climb is dependent on a number of varying factors, such as the weather on Mount Kilimanjaro and the age and fitness of each trekker. With that said we have achieved a success rate of 75% to Uhuru Peak across our three climbing routes.
Do your mountain guides carry first aid kits?
Yes. We carry multiple, comprehensive first aid kits and our mountain guides are fully trained on their use. All of our mountain guides are first-aid qualified.
Are your mountain guides trained to recognise symptoms of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS)?
Absolutely! Intrepid have invested in the highest standards of training of any operator on Kilimanjaro. This includes advanced altitude training delivered by a UK doctor and altitude research specialist. One of the key elements of this is training on the Lake Louise altitude assessment system, which allows our mountain guides to effectively monitor clients constantly whilst on Kilimanjaro and assess if they are suffering from AMS and, if so, how severe that AMS is. We also train them on how to respond in the case of a moderate or severe case of altitude sickness – which will always mean organising for the affected client to descend immediately. During your briefing on the first evening of your trip, your mountain guide will talk to you about symptoms of AMS and how to recognise them.
Do you carry medicines for altitude?
Yes – there are two key, potentially life-saving drugs that our teams carry on the mountain. These are Dexamethasone and Nifedipine and they used to treat cerebral and pulmonary oedema, which are the two potentially life-threatening complications of severe AMS. Our mountain guides are fully trained on the use of these drugs for altitude related illnesses.
Please note that we do not carry Diamox on our Kilimanjaro treks. The reason for this is that, although medical research suggests that Diamox can be very effective in aiding acclimatisation to altitude, it has been proven to be far less effective at treating severe AMS. You may wish to talk to your doctor prior to travelling about being prescribed Diamox to assist acclimatisation while you climb Kilimanjaro.
Will oxygen be available?
We carry medical oxygen – and when a group has four passengers or more, this will mean multiple cylinders will be distributed among the team of mountain guides to ensure that oxygen is always quickly available in the case of an emergency. The oxygen that we carry is strictly for emergency use only – and cannot be used by clients to assist in climbing or summiting.
Do you carry Gamow bags or PACs?
No. Gamow bags and PACs are two types of portable hyperbaric chambers, which are sometimes used for sufferers of severe AMS. What makes Kilimanjaro relatively unique is that it is a "rapid ascent mountain" – meaning altitude gain happens extremely quickly. Logically, therefore, Kilimanjaro is also a "rapid descent mountain" and our policy is that in the case of severe AMS, our mountain guides will immediately evacuate the patient down the mountain, usually with the assistance of porters to carry the person affected. Often, a descent of just a few hundred metres will be enough to make a difference. Gamow bags and PACs are more effective in other parts of the world where rapid descent on foot is not possible. Also, a gamow bag takes a little while to inflate – which on Kilimanjaro is valuable time lost when an evacuation down the mountain could already have commenced.
How do your mountain guides communicate on Kilimanjaro?
Mobile phone coverage on the mountain is improving – but it's still patchy in many areas. For this reason, Intrepid mountain guides carry short wave radios to allow for communication in the case of an emergency.
How do you ensure your porters are well looked after?
Unfortunately there is a problem in the trekking industry with some service providers taking advantage of porters, compromising staff safety in order to minimise costs. Our Tanzanian Destination Management Company (DMC) was established in 2014 with the purpose of ensuring Intrepid stood at the forefront of responsible tourism practices on Mount Kilimanjaro. We're proud to say that we're an official partner of the International Mountain Explorers Connection (IMEC) and its Kilimanjaro Porters Assistance Project (KPAP). This means all of our climbs have been assessed and scored based on a number of criteria designed to ensure the proper treatment of porters on the mountain. You can read more about KPAP's good work at the bottom of this page.
Who is your local operator in Tanzania?
All Intrepid Kilimanjaro climbs are operated by Intrepid Guerba Tanzania Limited, which is a fully owned Intrepid company based in northern Tanzania.
Are Intrepid trips accessible for travellers with disabilities?
We are committed to making travel widely accessible , regardless of ability or disability. We do our best to help you see the world, regardless of physical or mental limitations.
We are always happy to talk to travellers with disabilities and see if we can help guide them toward the most suitable itinerary for their needs and, where possible, make reasonable adjustments to our itineraries.

Mt. Kilimanjaro’s snowy peak is a sight to behold. Rising over 19,000 ft., scaling this giant is no small feat.
While only half of those who attempt to reach its peak make it, our K2 Adventures success record stands at 96%! In short, you are in the best of hands.
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours mt kilimanjaro hiking tours](https://k2adventuretravel.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/k2-tanzania-milky-way.jpg)
Our hike will be on the Machame trail on Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Tanzania and Africa. Mt. Kilimanjaro has three distinct volcanic cones, two of which are extinct and one that could erupt again.
It lies within the 756 square km Kilimanjaro National Park, one of the few places on earth that encompasses every ecological life zone—tropical jungle, savannah, desert, montane forests, and alpine zone. Get ready to see one of the most magnificent views of the Milky Way you’ve ever seen. The view alone is worth the trip!
The climb itself is steady rather than exhaustive, but challenging nonetheless. As you ascend, you’ll literally walk through every ecological life zone possible making you feel like you’re in a completely different place from one day to the next.
![mt kilimanjaro hiking tours mt kilimanjaro hiking tours](https://k2adventuretravel.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/k2-tanzania-kilimanjaro-summit.jpg)
Once you reach the summit, you can look out over the world and experience a sense of accomplishment that few ever will. It feels like you’re standing at the top of an island surrounded by a sea of clouds!

Adventures at altitude: an expert guide to hiking Kilimanjaro
W hen Sami Christensen reached the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro around 7 a.m. four years ago, she says she was exhilarated, exhausted, and overcome by how difficult the previous five days had been.
“It was honestly one of the most challenging things that I have ever done in my life, both physically and mentally,” she recalls.
Christensen lives in Colorado’s high country and is used to both high altitude and frequent long distance trekking. She’d spent months preparing for the expedition and though she wouldn’t admit it until later, she didn’t think she would struggle nearly as much as she did. It was, however, worth the pain.
“Watching the sun rise as we reached Uhuru Peak is something that will stick with me forever.”
Christensen joins the 30,000 or so hikers who ascend the world’s second tallest mountain each year, a staggering number compared to the mere 800 who climb the highest. The sheer volume of people who climb Kilimanjaro is a testament to how different the experience is to Everest.
Kilimanjaro is one of the few Seven Summits that is accessible to trekkers who possess only basic hiking skills and no mountaineering experience, making it a personal goal for many people who wouldn’t think of donning crampons and heading to the Himalayas, but it still requires intensive training and detailed preparation.
In this article, we speak to mountain guide Justin Mtui , whose adventure travel company specializes in Kilimanjaro hikes to find out the whys and hows of climbing Kilimanjaro.
Is Climbing Kilimanjaro Worth It?
If you’ve read the book Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer, you might have been left with the strong impression that climbing Everest isn’t exactly the majestic experience that photographers make it seem. Like Krakauer, most climbers admit their time on the summit was brief and unrewarding, with many finding it hard to recall the details of the final push.
At 19,341 ft (5,895 m) above sea level, Kilimanjaro is a full 10,000 ft lower than Everest. That’s not to say that the mountain, which stands in Tanzania near the Kenyan Border in East Africa, is easy, but the lower altitude allows hikers to have a much richer and more rewarding experience that they’ll actually remember, and cherish.
“Kilimanjaro is not just a mountain; it's an iconic African adventure that combines nature, culture, and personal growth,” explains Mtui, who has over 300 Kilimanjaro climbs under his belt.
“As you ascend, you'll encounter diverse landscapes, from lush rainforests to alpine deserts, and finally, the snow-capped summit. The views are truly awe-inspiring.”
On certain routes, you may have incredible wildlife viewing opportunities, with the possibility of spotting elephants and buffalos, while Mtui also points out that climbing Kilimanjaro can be an opportunity to give back to local communities. Many tour operators engage in responsible tourism and support local projects, which allows trekkers to have a positive impact on the region. You will also learn about the rich culture and traditions of the Chagga people of Tanzania.
“It's an opportunity to challenge yourself, be inspired by the beauty of the natural world, and connect with the people and places that make the journey unique.”
How hard is it to climb Kilimanjaro?
Depending on your route, you can expect to have to hike around 30 or 40 miles to summit Kilimanjaro and gain anywhere from 8,000 to 14,000 ft on your journey. A typical climb will take between five and nine days in total, so needless to say, it will test your physical and mental toughness, even if you’re relatively active like Christensen.
In addition to fitness, Mtui cites two common challenges in climbing Kilimanjaro: altitude and weather.
“Climbing Kilimanjaro is a physically demanding endeavor, and the high altitude can make it even more challenging.”
Even if you live at 8,000 ft and frequently recreate at higher elevations, like Christensen, you won’t be fully prepared for the dizzying heights of Kilimanjaro and proper acclimatization is essential to minimize the risk of altitude sickness .
As for the weather, though you might not be expecting the freezing conditions and avalanche risk you’d expect in the Himalayas – Christensen recalls summiting dressed as she might for a fall hike in Colorado , wearing a softshell jacket and hiking pants – the weather extremes can be uniquely challenging.
“Weather conditions on Kilimanjaro can be unpredictable and harsh. The temperatures can vary from extremely hot to very cold, and the weather can change rapidly. Dealing with extreme temperatures and weather fluctuations can be a challenge,” says Mtui.
Mount Kilimanjaro is close to the equator, so it doesn’t experience major temperature changes from season to season, but temperatures fluctuate according to the altitude and time of day. Temperatures at the base are typically between 70 to 80 degrees while the summit, Uhuru Peak, lies in the arctic zone where night time temperatures can range between 20 and -20 degrees. Though you might not need the technical snow gear required for Everest, the variation can be difficult to adjust to.
How much hiking experience do you need for Kilimanjaro?
Mtui explains that one of the aspects that makes Kilimanjaro so accessible to different ability and experience levels is that there are so many different routes to the top.
“Kilimanjaro is often considered a trek rather than a technical climb, and it's achievable for individuals with various levels of hiking experience.”
Beginner trekkers will find easier routes like the Marangu Route or Rongai Route are suitable for those with limited hiking experience. For routes like the Machame Route or Lemosho Route, which involve longer and steeper ascents, it's beneficial to have some prior hiking or trekking experience. If you plan to take more challenging and less traveled routes like the Umbwe or Western Breach routes, or if you want to do it in a shorter period of time, having significant hiking and high-altitude trekking experience is advisable.
How to prepare for your Kilimanjaro hike
Once you’ve chosen your route, obtained your Tanzanian tourist visa, received your vaccinations and booked your trip – something Mtui stresses you do through a reputable tour operator or trekking company that will help with permits, logistics, and local support – it’s time to get in shape.
“Start a fitness regimen several months in advance. Focus on cardio exercises like hiking, running, or cycling to improve your cardiovascular endurance. Incorporate strength training exercises, especially for your legs and core,” advises Mtui.
Though there are aspects of your training that can be done in a gym, such as strength conditioning, Mtui recommends you also practice walking or hiking with a loaded daypack – known as “ rucking ” – to simulate the weight you'll carry on the mountain.
If possible, acclimatize to higher altitudes before your Kilimanjaro climb by spending time at elevations above 10,000 ft. If you’re in the US, that means heading out west: Alaska, Hawaii, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico all have high altitude zones where you can train in the month before your trip.
Once you arrive in Tanzania, you’ll want to give yourself a few days during which you should get adequate sleep to ensure you're well-rested, enjoy a healthy diet and stay hydrated in the days before your climb.
“By following these steps and being well-prepared, you can increase your chances of having a successful and enjoyable Kilimanjaro trek. Remember that safety and acclimatization are paramount, so listen to your body and your guides throughout the journey.”
What do you need for hiking Kilimanjaro?
Your tour guide will supply you with a detailed kit list for your trip, but here are some of the basics you’ll need:
- Hiking layers
- Warm sleeping bag
- A sturdy backpack
- Comfortable hiking boots
- First aid kit
- Travel insurance that covers emergency medical evacuation, trip cancellations, and travel delays
Mtui recommends renting equipment like sleeping bags and trekking poles to save on luggage space. If you’re bringing your own, read our article on flying with camping gear to successfully transport your kit.
