Kilimanjaro Climbing FAQs

Which Kilimanjaro route has the highest summit success rate?

The 8-day Lemosho and 9-day Northern Circuit have the highest success rates because the extra days give your body time to acclimatize above 3,500m.

How much does it cost to climb Mount Kilimanjaro?

Booking direct with us, Kilimanjaro climbs start at $1,850 for the 6-day Marangu Route and go up to $2,950 for the 9-day Northern Circuit. Park fees, guides, porters, meals and camping gear are included.

What is the best time to climb Kilimanjaro?

January to mid-March and June to October offer the driest, clearest conditions. We run climbs year-round with route adjustments for the shoulder seasons.

Do I need previous trekking experience?

No technical climbing is required on any of our routes. Good general fitness and a steady pace are enough — our guides walk pole pole (slowly) to maximise acclimatization.
