Professionally guided, fully supported climbs across all major routes. The Roof of Africa awaits — 5,895 metres above sea level.
At 5,895 metres, Kilimanjaro is Africa's tallest mountain and the world's highest free-standing peak. No technical climbing gear needed — just fitness, determination, and the right team beside you.
Wakali Safaris runs fully supported expeditions across all four major routes. Every climb includes certified mountain guides, a rescue-trained crew, all camping equipment, nutritious meals, park fees, and hotel transfers in Arusha. We have guided climbers from complete beginners to seasoned trekkers — the mountain doesn't care which you are, and neither do we.
Best time to climb: January–March and June–October.
Kilimanjaro has four main climbing routes, each with its own character. We'll help you pick the right one based on your fitness, experience, and preferences.
The most popular route. Scenic and varied terrain through rainforest, moorland, and alpine desert. Available as a 6 or 7-day climb — the extra day significantly improves acclimatisation and summit success.
Our recommended route. Crosses the stunning Shira Plateau with the highest summit success rates and fewer crowds than Machame. Available as 6 or 7 days.
A quieter, more gradual ascent from the northern side. Ideal for those seeking a more remote wilderness experience with fewer crowds. Available as 6 or 7 days.
The most demanding route — steep, direct, and rewarding. Best suited for experienced trekkers with excellent fitness. 6 days.
Tell us your preferred route, dates, and group size. We'll build a fully supported expedition with certified guides, all equipment, meals, park fees, and Arusha hotel transfers included.
After conquering Kilimanjaro, relax with a Northern Tanzania safari or unwind on Zanzibar's tropical beaches.
