As you will see in the first steps of the treks of the climb to the last steps off the route, porters are the life blood of Kilimanjaro climbs. The weight limit is 30 pounds for the porters We ensure our porters are restricted to 15kg~33lbs and do our best to maintain a high wage to make sure they are adequately compensated for their efforts. They perform incredible balancing acts carrying loads from camp to camp, setting up personal tents and group tents prior to your arrival, and often times ushering you into camp with warm songs of welcome.
It takes our complete team of Lead Guides, Assistant Guides, Chefs, Waiters and Porters to make a successful expedition and Climb Kili is privileged to have the finest carefully selected staff on The Mountain.
