Climb Kilimanjaro - Train First, Prepare the Right Way for Success
Climbing Kilimanjaro is a life changing experience!
Early Bird - October 15th for the Early Bird Benefits!
Why climb with us:
Here is our boast:
We have 15. years of experience taking clients to Kilimanjaro
Everyone that has completed the training with us reaches the summit, without exception.
Here is what we cannot guarantee:
You will still complain about everything else from the cold, the wind, the sore muscles, the effects of the altitude, bad quality sleep and the exhaustion on summit night. Nobody can promise you enjoyment on this trek, it is not a relaxing trek with sights to see. This trek is a personal challenge that you agree to take on and complete. The right attitude is essential for success and the maximum benefit that you get from reaching the summit, and getting back down. and saying that you have done it!
Although its true that ‘anyone’ can do it, the better prepared you are, the slower you go, the more you will enjoy it. The advantage of the budget trip is that it becomes affordable and you can still get the advantage of the extensive preparation program but will take the ‘economy” plan on the mountain itself.
We also understand the financial committment that can be a huge burden to most people do not realize until after they commit to joining, adding up the simple costs of the trek and the flight.
Total cost: Early Bird Rates: 8950 DH
Why do we offer such a better rate for Early Birds? The earlier you commit, the more you are in the mindset of ‘preparing’ and the more time you have for this (ideally, 4-5 months) the higher your chance of success!
Pre Trek Perks:
Oryx Hiking Membership with up to 8 hikes to Prepare you for the climb on the weekends prior to departure
Gear Support: We know that the gear is a huge expense so we are offering gear rentals as part of our package. Early bird offer includes these for FREE.
2 Ski Dubai Sessions Prior to Departure: Test your gear and how you feel in the cold. Ski Dubai at -5c is the perfect chance to figure a lot of things out! We also teach you how to descend on ‘scree’ and ascend on summit night.
Gear Rentals Package: 1000 DH (with deposit 500 dh) Early Birds: FREE
Purchasing these items on your own will total nearly 6000 dh and they are not items that you will likely need anywhere else. These items are challenging to find in UAE and expensive.
