First part of the climb

Your adventure to the top of Kilimanjaro starts here. You will arrive in Tanzania where you will prepare for the climb in Moshi, a town located at the foot of Kilimanjaro. Here you will spend a day checking your gear and also pass safety and health checks. On the third day, you will take your first steps through the entrance and here on there is only one way – and that is up. Day by day we are gonna get closer to the top, camping out in tents at different altitudes from 3500 meters to 5000 meters. You will feel the temperature drop and the air gets thinner, but it is all worth it in the end.

Last part of the climb

We are almost at the top now. We need to climb the last 800 meters before we reach the summit. The last part of the hike is the roughest as we need to leave around midnight so we can reach the summit and enjoy the beautiful view that awaits us. Take in the surroundings and congratulate yourself, we reached the top – this is what we came for! From here on we will descend down to 3800 meters before exiting the area and returning to Moshi. A much-needed reward is awaiting us once we return, as we will spend a day at the natural hot springs close to Moshi. Before we return home, we spend a day helping out at a local primary school where we will paint blackboards, paint classrooms and much more that will help enhance the children’s school life.

Your adventure to climb Mount Kilimanjaro starts now! You will arrive in Tanzania and a guide will meet you at Kilimanjaro International Airport and take you to Moshi. Moshi is a small town located about an hour away from the airport and is at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro. You can spend the rest of the day settling in and preparing for the next few days.

Day 1 - Moshi

Today we will check your gear to make sure everything fits you. We will also do safety and health checks before we start the climb tomorrow. The rest of the day you can spend around town and with the others who are going to climb Mount Kilimanjaro as well. Make sure you get a good night’s rest.

(Breakfast and dinner included)

U. Local Committment

U. only works with registered porters from the National Porters Association. Sure they might be slightly more expensive but they are guaranteed local people from Tanzania and hold the highest safety and guiding qualifications available. This ensures the money you are paying is going directly in to the local economy.

Day 2 - Moshi

It is time to gear up – after breakfast we are leaving for the entrance to Mount Kilimanjaro, about 1500 meters above sea level. The car will drop us off and you will be taking your first step on this incredible adventure. We will start the hike through a forest, and we recommend you take your time to enjoy the hike, as the forest will be swapped for snow in a few days. We reach the first camp at 2980 meters and will be sleeping in tents tonight.
