The best times to climb Kilimanjaro are during the dry seasons, typically from late June to October and from December to February. These months offer more stable weather conditions and clearer views.
Kilimanjaro is a challenging but non-technical climb. The difficulty level varies depending on the route chosen. While no technical climbing skills are required, a good level of fitness and acclimatization is essential for a successful summit.
Altitude sickness can affect climbers at higher elevations. Our itineraries are designed to allow for proper acclimatization, reducing the risk. It’s important to stay hydrated, follow your guide’s advice, and be aware of symptoms to ensure a safe ascent.
Our guides are trained in first aid responders, and we have established evacuation procedures in case of emergencies. We also recommend obtaining travel insurance that covers high-altitude trekking for added peace of mind.
Our experienced mountain chefs prepare a variety of nutritious meals to keep you energized throughout the trek. Expect a mix of international and local cuisine, including fresh fruits, vegetables, proteins, and carbohydrates. Special dietary needs can be accommodated with prior notice.
Staying hydrated is crucial at high altitudes. We provide safe and purified water throughout the trek. Additionally, we encourage climbers to bring their reusable water bottles, as we aim to minimize environmental impact by reducing single-use plastics.
Meals are served in communal dining tents, providing a social and comfortable atmosphere. Breakfasts and dinners are substantial, and lunch is often a packed meal or a hot lunch stop during the trek. Snacks are also provided to keep your energy levels up between meals.
