Our careful planning, combined with our commitment to proper acclimatization, has helped us achieve one of the highest summit success rates on Kilimanjaro.
We utilize the high Kosovo camp, one of the highest base camps on the mountain, which aids in acclimatizing climbers and maximizing summit success. Our guides monitor your health daily with pulse oximeters and oxygen level checks, and in case of an emergency, we are prepared to act quickly with mountain rescue protocols and local medical support.
4. Ethical and Sustainable Tourism Practices
Climb Kili is proud to be a KPAP member, supporting fair wages and respectful treatment of porters, who are the backbone of every trek. We believe that ethical tourism should empower local communities, and we are committed to providing our porters with excellent working conditions and fair compensation.
