The Kilimanjaro Tours difference

Why trek & safari with us

Based in Tanzania

Planned and led from the foot of the mountain

Kilimanjaro Tours is a Tanzanian operator. The people who design your itinerary are the same team that meets you on arrival and runs the trip on the ground.

Acclimatisation first

Itineraries paced for the summit

Route choice, daily distances and rest days are planned around acclimatisation rather than the shortest possible schedule.

Mountain crew

Guides, cooks and porters treated fairly

Crew welfare standards, wage policy and load limits will be published here once confirmed by the operator.

Private safaris

Your own vehicle and guide

Safaris run in private 4x4 vehicles with a dedicated driver-guide, so the daily plan follows your interests, not a fixed group timetable.

Guides and trip stories
