Popular questions about our Trekking tours

Do I need prior climbing experience to trek Kilimanjaro?

No prior technical climbing experience is required. Kilimanjaro is a non-technical trek, but good physical fitness and stamina are important for a successful climb.

Which Kilimanjaro route is the best?

The best route depends on your preferences. Machame is scenic but challenging, Marangu is shorter and has huts, while Lemosho offers better acclimatization. We’ll help you choose the right route based on your experience and time.

How long does it take to reach the summit?

Most treks take 5 to 9 days, depending on the route and your pace. Extra days improve acclimatization, increasing the chance of reaching the summit.

What should I pack for the Kilimanjaro trek?

Essential items include layers of clothing for varying temperatures, sturdy hiking boots, a sleeping bag, trekking poles, a headlamp, and sunscreen. We’ll provide a detailed packing list to help you prepare.

What is the best time of year to climb Kilimanjaro?

The best times are during the dry seasons: January to March and June to October. These months offer better weather conditions and clearer views.

How hard is it to deal with altitude sickness?

Altitude sickness is common, but we plan our treks with acclimatization in mind to minimize the risk. Drinking plenty of water, ascending slowly, and proper acclimatization days help manage it effectively.
