Climbing the Kilimanjaro: an unforgettable experience!

Climbing the Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is truly an unforgettable experience. The Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest freestanding mountain on earth and the highest mountain of the African continent. The Kilimanjaro majestically rises up from the rain forests to the snow and ice covered top at 5.895 meters. Even you can climb this sleeping vulcano now!

For the ultimate Expedition Kilimanjaro I have composed a 11-day adventure. This consists of 7 days camping on the mountain (6 nights) and 4 days in a very attractive hotel in Moshi (two days before and two days after the climb)

The tour takes you through the Machame route in 7 days and 6 nights to the highest point of the mountain: Uhuru Peak. Read more about the route »

One expedition consists outof a maximum of 12 people and is being lead by well trained and certified guides with years of experience on the mountain. If you are going with a small group, or prefer to go alone, only one guide will lead you. Count for every participant also 2 or 3 porters who carry your luggage and all necessities up the mountain.


The price for this expedition is only 1250 euros p.p.. This excludes the flight to Tanzania. What can you expect? » Currency converter »

You can plan your own expedition whenever you want. You can go alone, with your own group or participate in one of the international expedition groups which take of this autumn and coming spring.

Flying to Kenya is cheaper

You can book a return flight from New York JFK Airport directly to Kilimanjaro International Airport. The prices for a return flight for these destinations mostly start at about US$ 1,400.

If you want to save money it might be wiser to fly at the Kenyan capital city Nairobi instead. A return flight from London or Amsterdam to Nairobi is already available from about US$ 840 (price for upcoming expedition on May 27). From Nairobi airconditioned shuttle busses can drive you to Moshi for US$ 50 within half a day.
