Kilimanjaro, located in northeastern Tanzania, is a dormant volcano and stands proudly at a staggering height of 5,895 meters (19,341 feet). It is often referred to as the "Roof of Africa" and attracts thousands of adventure seekers from around the world. Scaling this iconic mountain is a testament to one’s physical and mental strength, and the reward is an unforgettable experience of a lifetime.

Pikicho Expeditions is your trusted partner in conquering Kilimanjaro. With years of experience in organizing treks and safaris in Tanzania, we have established ourselves as one of the leading tour operators in the region. Our team of skilled and experienced guides will accompany you every step of the way, ensuring your safety and comfort throughout the expedition.

Choosing the right route is crucial when it comes to scaling Kilimanjaro. There are several routes available, each offering a unique perspective and level of difficulty. The most popular routes include the Machame, Marangu, Lemosho, and Rongai routes. Each route has its own characteristics and attractions, such as the breathtaking views along the Machame Route or the scenic rainforest of the Lemosho Route. Our team will help you select the best route based on your fitness level, preferences, and available time.

As you ascend Kilimanjaro, you will witness the dramatic changes in landscapes and climates. The journey begins in lush rainforests, where you might encounter exotic birds, monkeys, and other wildlife. As you climb higher, the flora and fauna become sparse, and you’ll find yourself surrounded by alpine desert and rocky terrains. Finally, the summit awaits you with its snow-capped peak, where you can marvel at the panoramic views and witness the sunrise over the African plains.

Climbing Kilimanjaro requires careful planning and preparation. It is essential to acclimatize to the high altitudes to minimize the risk of altitude sickness. Our itineraries are designed to allow for gradual ascent, giving your body enough time to adjust and adapt. Our experienced guides are trained to identify and manage any symptoms of altitude sickness, ensuring your safety throughout the trek.

At Pikicho Expeditions, we prioritize your comfort and well-being. Our fully supported treks include professional guides, porters, and cooks who will take care of all the logistics, leaving you free to fully immerse yourself in the experience. We provide high-quality camping equipment, delicious meals, and clean drinking water to ensure your trek is as comfortable as possible.

To make the most of your Kilimanjaro adventure, it is recommended to combine it with a safari in Tanzania’s world-renowned national parks. Witness the breathtaking wildlife in the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater, or the Tarangire National Park. Experience close encounters with elephants, lions, zebras, and the elusive Big Five. Our customized safari packages allow you to tailor your journey to suit your preferences and time constraints.
