Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro 2024 | Trekking Tour to Tanzania

Climbing Kilimanjaro

$2250 / person

Mount Kilimanjaro is a dormant volcano in northeastern Tanzania. It is the highest point in Africa, with an altitude of 5895 meters. It consists of 3 volcanic cones: Kibo (5895 m), Mawenzi (5355 m) and Hira (4006 m). It consists mainly of trachybasalts and phonolites. There are 7 main routes leading to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro (Uhuru Peak), of which we chose the shortest and less resource-intensive route -the Marangu route, also known as "Coca-Cola". Besides being the shortest and oldest route, the Marangu route is also equipped with comfortable cottages, with beds, solar lights.

Day 1

Arrival in Tanzania - Moshi city

Our plane lands in Tanzania, and after a long journey we are waiting for a cozy hotel in Moshi. Well, we'll consider the trip started.

Day 2

Mandara Camp ahead

After breakfast at the hotel, we will go to Kilimanjaro National Park near the town of Moshi, where we will start climbing after registering at the checkpoint. We will start the ascent from a height of 1860 meters. From the checkpoint to the camp, the road passes through the forest, where we will meet eucalyptus trees, birds and colobus monkeys.

Day 3

From Mandara Camp to Horombo Camp

For a few days we forget the forest views, we start climbing to the Horomo camp, the height is 3700 meters. Gradually we feel the height and at the same time admire the views of the peaks of Mawenzi and Kibo, giant and characteristic trees.

Day 4

From Horomo Camp to Kibo Camp

In Kibo camp, located between the peaks of Kibo and Mavensi, we will spend the next night at an altitude of 4700 meters. We will arrange things, prepare for the night ascent. There are only a few hours left on the top of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Day 5

Climbing to the summit of Kilimanjaro Uhuru 5895 m

The climb will begin at midnight, at about 02 o'clock.00. A rocky road, sometimes covered with a layer of snow, will lead us to Gilman Point on the edge of the crater, located at an altitude of 5681 meters above sea level. Well, of course, we will have a picture near a huge sign at Gilman Point. Incredible views are yet to come. All we have to do is walk for about an hour and conquer the peak with a height of 5895 meters. So, congratulations! You are at the top of the highest mountain in Africa. After we fix a beautiful series of photos on the top, we will go down to the Horomo camp, but we will not get to the Horomo camp yet, we will rest in Kibo camp, where we will eat.

Day 6

Horombo Camp - Mandara Camp - Moshi City

Along the lush forest road we will descend to the Mandara camp, from where, after eating and resting, we will continue our way to the Marang checkpoint. After the checkpoint, the car will take us to our hotel in Moshi. We are preparing for an unforgettable safari trip.

Day 7

Safari tour of Tanzania

To be in Tanzania, and not to get acquainted with wildlife, not to enjoy the beauty of the Ngorongoro crater is a crime.
