Our Chefs

We require our trained chefs to completely clean and sanitize all meals and snacks while on the mountain and on the safari. They pay particular attention to the preparation and selection of menu items while on the mountain as well as planning the current day and next day aheads menu; as calorie intake and hydration have a direct correlation on a trekkers physical stamina and ability to continue at altitude. They can also make special arrangement for vegetarian meals or any other special dietary needs.

All Climb Kili Guides and Assistant Guides are Certified and Licensed by the Tanzania National Parks.

Climb Kili

Our Porters

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.
