Trip Overview

At 19,340 feet (5,890 meters), the great massif of Kilimanjaro looms above the cloud forest, crowned with snow. It is an imposing sight and a challenging trek, but one that anyone in good condition can complete when the pace of the climb is adjusted responsibly to accommodate increasing altitude. We do the trek in 8 days. At this pace, we achieve an impressive 98% success rate. (Be wary of expeditions that do it too fast. Altitude sickness is the number one cause of failure to summit.)

The route we take is not the popular Marangu Route, known to locals as the cola or tourist route. The Western Breach Route begins far from tourist crowds, approaching the mountain across a seldom-traveled wilderness known as the Shira Plateau. We take you up past an ice-clad wall known as the Western Breach. This route is the Kilimanjaro of old, a beautiful and powerful experience.

And when you come back down the mountain, you can add on a safari extension, exploring the hidden world of Ngorongoro Crater or the Serengeti.
