Fair Warning; This will be the only description that you will ever read that tells you like it is. We are not trying to ‘sell’ you on this trip. In fact, we hope that most of you read and decide ‘nope, I am definitely not ready for that’. Why? To understand if this Kilimanjaro trip is right for you, please keep reading.
This mountain deserves more consideration. Its a serious and dangerous mountain climb. Just because you CAN climb it as a beginner does NOT mean you should. Our experience over 15 years of taking groups to this mountain has proven a few things: yes, anyone can do it, but those that really truly enjoy and appreciate the challenge are trekkers who have at least some hiking and mountain experience. They will also be able to understand the benefits that our trek offers in comparison to their previous mountain experiences.
We prepare you here for every aspect of the trip in UAE before you go. This extensive trip preparation helps ensure that you are fully prepared BEFORE you set foot on the mountain.

How Our Trek is Unique:
First, to ensure positive group dynamics, everyone in your group will be experienced and ready for the trip. Altitude sickness is something else, but good fitness will minimize your risks of this as well. Excellent fitness is simply, a MUST.
This tour will include a day acclimatization prior to the start of the hike to further support your body’s ability to adjust to the trek you are about to embark on.
We use the Machame 7 day trek for better acclimatization and an extra acclimatization hike prior to starting the climb.
We also add 4 training treks for free prior to your trip to make sure you are fully prepared for the climb.
Single Tents. No waking anyone else up and privacy throughout the trek.
Hearty delicious meals with NO MSG added and filtered water.
1 extra porter per group for any excess weight (so total allowed will be 18 KG not 14 standard)
Trek leader from UAE Trekkers
Gear support for Everest quality sleeping bags and down jackets

Top physical condition is essential. We will plan 2 treks to Jabal Shams (3000m) for you to test yourself. Your training program will have recommendations but will be your responsibility to make sure you are ready. This is a challenging and difficult climb. We include 4 training treks as part of your fees and are a part of your preparation every step with gear and packing assistance and an extensive level of support which is why our trip is more expensive than just going with a local tour.
