As a prominent tour operator based in Arusha, Tanzania, Pikicho Expeditions has been organizing remarkable expeditions for years. Our team of experienced guides and porters is dedicated to ensuring a safe and enjoyable journey for every traveler. With a deep respect for nature and a commitment to sustainable tourism, we strive to provide an unforgettable experience while minimizing our impact on the environment.

Scaling Kilimanjaro is no easy feat. It requires physical stamina, mental determination, and proper acclimatization. However, with the right preparation and guidance, anyone with a sense of adventure can conquer this iconic mountain.

Our Kilimanjaro expeditions offer various routes, each with its own unique features and challenges. Whether you choose the popular Marangu route, the scenic Machame route, or the rugged Lemosho route, our professional guides will lead the way and provide you with the support you need to reach the summit.

The journey begins at the base of the mountain, where you’ll enter the lush rainforest. This verdant paradise is home to a diverse array of plants and animals, including colobus monkeys and exotic bird species. As you ascend, the landscape transforms, and you’ll find yourself walking through heather moorlands, alpine meadows, and barren lunar-like landscapes. The ever-changing scenery makes every step an adventure.

At higher altitudes, altitude sickness can pose a significant challenge. Our guides are trained to recognize the symptoms and ensure a proper acclimatization process. This involves gradual ascent, rest days, and continuous monitoring of each team member’s health. Our priority is to keep you safe while giving you the best chance of reaching the summit.

Reaching Uhuru Peak, the highest point on Kilimanjaro, is an indescribable feeling. Standing at 5,895 meters (19,341 feet) above sea level, you’ll witness the breathtaking landscape that stretches as far as the eye can see. The sense of accomplishment and awe will stay with you forever.

While the journey to the summit is undoubtedly the highlight of the expedition, the entire experience is enriched by the camaraderie and support of your fellow climbers and the dedicated Pikicho team. We provide comfortable tents, nutritious meals prepared by our experienced cooks, and a team of porters who carry the heavy equipment, allowing you to focus on the trek and enjoy the stunning surroundings.

As part of our commitment to sustainable tourism, we follow the principles of "Leave No Trace." We ensure that all waste is properly disposed of, and we strive to preserve the pristine environment of Kilimanjaro for future generations. Our guides also provide educational insights about the local flora, fauna, and cultural heritage, giving you a deeper understanding and appreciation of this extraordinary region.
