MT KILIMANJARO - WHY BOOK WITH AFRICAN SAFARI SHOP

African Safari Shop is your natural choice for booking and planning your climb and/or safari.

We have been arranging safaris to Kilimanjaro, Tanzania and Zanzibar for more than 5 years. 

We can give you excellent advice on every aspect of the climb ranging from which equipment to pack to training program for the climb.

We have a very high success rate on the mountain.   Our success rate is due in large part to the excellent porters and guides we use on the mountain.  The guide that will lead you up Kilimanjaro will have at least 4 years experience on the mountain. 

We can tailor make a package to suit your needs right from your hometown, whether it is San Diego - California ,  Dresden -  Germany or Johannesburg South Africa , at a very affordable price.

A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE ROUTES: 

MARANGU ROUTE: (Prices & Departures)

8 Day Package ex Arusha/Moshi  (6 Day Climb)@ $850 per person.

7 Day Package ex Arusha/Moshi (5 Day Climb) @ $750 per person  

The Marangu route will take us from the lush rainforest, through high alpine scrub, with its exotic plants to the primordial snow and ice, and steaming fumaroles of the summit crater.  In the cold wee hours of the morning we begin the steepest and most demanding part of the climb.  Slowly we climb,  Higher, still higher.  The crater rim is reached about sunrise, and we are rewarded with a breathtaking view, as Africa awakens to a new day.  We spend the nights in huts, an porters carry our gear, during our ascent to the legendary snows of Kilimanjaro.

  • 8 Day Package ex Arusha/Moshi (6 Day Climb) @ $970 per person.

  • The Machame route takes a minimum of 6 days and is far more demanding than the Marangu route.  Accommodation is in tents, rather than huts.  The reward for doing the more physically demanding route is scenery that is spectacular and also relatively unspoiled.  

    SHIRA ROUTE: (Prices & Departures)

  • 11 Day Package ex Arusha/Moshi (9 Day Climb) @ $1 350 per person.

  • For those who have time, the Shira Routes is the most scenic, unspoilt route and affords a gradual acclimatization that makes the Kilimanjaro experience very enjoyable
