Kilimanjaro Adventure Climbing Tours

Kilimanjaro defines East Africa as surely as any other sight in this land of hyperbole and natural wonder. The highest mountain in Africa, the highest free-standing mountain in the world, the distinctive snowcapped peak looms up from the surrounding Masai Steppe to dominate the skyline and sweeping vistas of Northern Tanzania.

Alluringly, Kilimanjaro is as high as the untrained walker can go without need of oxygen or specialist mountaineering skills, and is proving an irresistible lure to adventure seekers across the world, keen to experience a major peak once in their lifetime. Safari Legacy has compiled a series of itineraries that we hope will take the interested client to the summit of this world-famous mountain.

Safari Legacy principally use the Machame Route, seeking to avoid the well-beaten trails of Marangu, providing trained guides, cooks, porters, high-altitude camping equipment and all the necessary background information to ensure a safe and comfortable climb.

Each day’s climb is designed to gently gain altitude, moving slowly through each stage of vegetation so that acclimatisation is assured but not at the expense of the unique ecosystem and breathtaking views that embellish every step of your climb. Furthermore, for those limited in time or fitness, we offer options for shorter hikes in the foothills of Kilimanjaro, trekking the rainforests that cover the lower slope in search of monkeys, smaller antelopes and tropical birds.

Kilimanjaro is not just another mountain, another peak for summit-baggers. Kilimanjaro is a self-sustainable ecosystem in itself, a symbol of Tanzania, holy place for the local Chagga tribe and worthy of inclusion in any itinerary, even if you have no plans to climb to the roof of Africa.
