Climbing the Kilimanjaro: an unforgettable experience!

Climbing the Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is truly an unforgettable experience. Mount Kilimanjaro majestically rises up from the rainforest of north-eastern Tanzania to its pristine, snow- and ice-covered summit at 5,895 meters (19, 340 ft).

Climbing this inactive volcano--the highest mountain in Africa and the 4th highest freestanding mountain on earth--is truly an unforgettable experience, once thought to be reserved for rugged and elite “Expert” climbers with months of preparation under their belts. But with Ramon Stoppelenburg’s Expedition Kilimanjaro, even you can conquer this “Sleeping Giant!”

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

Over the course of 7 days and 6 nights, the Expedition Kilimanjaro will lead you along the Machame route to the highest point of the mountain, Uhuru Peak (5,896 m / 19,343 ft.) Read more about the route »

One expedition consists of a maximum of 12 people led by certified native Tanzanian guides and porters with years of mountain climbing experience. While mountain guides direct your group through the scenic ascent of the highest mountain in Africa, porters will assume the physical demand of carrying your personal items and all camping gear throughout the seven-day journey.

Small groups and solo hikers may opt for more a more intimate Expedition Kilimanjaro with their own personal guide, leaving on the date of their choosing.

The Expedition Kilimanjaro price is only 2300 US dollars per person, excluding the flight to Tanzania (now including the new 18% VAT which the Tanzanian government implemented on July 1, 2016). What can you expect? » Use the currency converter here

This price remains the same whether you participate in one of the international Expedition Kilimanjaro groups leaving throughout the year (see Agenda below) or arrange your own small group or solo guided trek.
