Mount Kilimanjaro, standing tall at 5,895 meters (19,341 feet), is the highest peak in Africa and one of the most sought-after destinations for adventurers and nature enthusiasts alike. Every year, thousands of intrepid travelers from all corners of the globe flock to Tanzania to conquer this formidable mountain. And with Pikicho Expeditions, you can join their ranks and experience the thrill of reaching the summit yourself.

At Pikicho Expeditions, we understand that climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is not just a physical endeavor but also a mental and emotional challenge. That’s why our experienced and highly trained guides are there to support you every step of the way. From the moment you set foot on the mountain until you reach the top, our team will ensure your safety, comfort, and enjoyment throughout the entire trek.

One of the unique aspects of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is the diverse range of ecosystems you will encounter along the way. The journey starts in the lush rainforests at the base of the mountain, where you can spot exotic wildlife such as colobus monkeys and tropical birds. As you ascend, the landscape transforms into a moorland characterized by stunning alpine meadows and unique plant species adapted to the harsh conditions.

The next phase of the trek takes you through the otherworldly lunar-like landscape of the high-altitude desert. Here, you will be surrounded by vast expanses of rocks, scree, and snow as you make your way towards the summit. Finally, as you reach the top, you will be rewarded with breathtaking views of the surrounding plains and a sense of accomplishment that words cannot describe.

While climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is a challenge, it is not limited to professional mountaineers. With the proper preparation and guidance, anyone with a reasonable level of fitness can attempt this incredible feat. However, it is essential to choose a reliable and experienced tour operator like Pikicho Expeditions to ensure a safe and successful climb.

We offer a variety of trekking routes, each with its own unique characteristics and levels of difficulty. Whether you prefer the more popular Marangu or Machame routes or opt for a more off-the-beaten-path adventure like the Rongai or Lemosho routes, our knowledgeable guides will tailor the experience to suit your preferences and abilities.

Before embarking on this epic adventure, it is crucial to acclimatize properly to the altitude to minimize the risk of altitude sickness. Our itineraries are carefully designed to allow for gradual acclimatization, increasing your chances of reaching the summit successfully. Our guides are trained in recognizing the symptoms of altitude sickness and will closely monitor your health throughout the trek.

At Pikicho Expeditions, we prioritize safety and sustainability. We adhere to Leave No Trace principles and promote responsible trekking practices. We also ensure our porters and crew are well taken care of, providing fair wages and proper equipment. We believe in giving back to the local communities and preserving the natural beauty of Mount Kilimanjaro for future generations to enjoy.
