Crowned by eternal snows, Mount Kilimanjaro is an overwhelming presence on the African landscape (it's no wonder the local people call it the "Home of God"). To climb Kilimanjaro and stand on the roof of Africa (and one of the world's seven summits!) is a dream of every adventurer. We've been operating climbs of Kilimanjaro since 1974 - in fact, we were the first company ever to lead commercial treks up the mountain. Today, we have an unparalleled summit success - over 90% of our travelers reach Kilimanjaro's 19,340-foot high summit. Climbing Kilimanjaro is a true Mountain Travel Sobek classic, so read on - for all you've always wanted to know about Africa's highest peak... and much more.
