Kilimanjaro Tour Operators

There are several hundred licensed Kilimanjaro tour operators offering their services to enable you get to the top of the highest mountain in Africa.

So the process of choosing the right company for your trek can feel almost as challenging as the climb itself.

But help is at hand, it doesn't have to be so difficult to choose.

Use the trip reports and reviews below to compile a shortlist of the companies that are worth contacting.

Then you can approach them with a higher degree of confidence because if a past climber had a good experience, then the chances are more than even that you will too.

Team Kilimanjaro And based on all the travel reviews and feedback I highly recommend this company as one of the top three to choose from if you are planning to climb Kilimanjaro.

ICONS EXPLAINED

Lion track icon = Added support and extras

This icon identifies Kilimanjaro tour operators that go the extra mile with their support and add-ons to give you the very best chance of getting to the peak successfully and safely. They normally boast the highest summit success rates.

Examples of extras they provide (differs according to operator) are things like highly qualified guides, mess tents with tables and chairs, pulse oximeters, oxygen and Gamow bags, portable toilets and showers, accommodation before/after the climb and transfers to/from the airport.

Hoof icon = Just the basics

If you feel that logistical considerations and staff support levels will have little impact on the success or enjoyment of your climb and price is an over-riding concern for you then approach the companies with the above icon in their listing.

They provide all the essentials but stripped down to the barest minimum in order to offer a lower rate, which may have a detrimental effect on your ability to reach the summit successfully, although climbers do reach the top using these companies.

    top three listTop 3 Kilimanjaro Climb Company

    Due to the internal structure of the company, Team Kilimanjaro is able to schedule a climb virtually any day of the year, which enables them to operate to climber requested dates rather than ask climbers to fit into their scheduled dates.

    Their mountain staff are divided into over 20 close-knit teams each led by a chief guide who reports daily from the mountain, directly to an Expedition Coordinator.
