    I would rate 5 Star for this Local Company We had the absolute privilege of booking a safari with Kilisa Tours & Safari, and I can honestly say their service is nothing short of 5-star excellence. From the very first communication to the final day of our trip, the entire experience was handled with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. Our guide was incredibly skilled at spotting wildlife and shared insightful knowledge about the animals, landscapes, and cultures. Every game drive was exciting and perfectly paced, and the accommodations selected by Kilisa Tours were comfortable and well-suited to the authentic safari experience. I would recommend this service to anyone as they deliver not only on organization and expertise but also on creating memories that will last a lifetime.

    Is any previous experience needed to climb Kilimanjaro?

    Tour Details
    • Kilisa Tours & SafarisOperatorWritten July 2019

      No, the climb to Mount Kilimanjaro does not require any previous climbing skills. On the Machame, Lemosho, Shira and Umbwe Route there is a section called the Barranco Wall that requires basic bouldering skills, however, no preparation is required for this section of the hike.

    Tour Details
    • Kilisa Tours & SafarisOperatorWritten July 2019

      No. All standard Kilimanjaro treks usually include not only a registered guide but porters to carry the trekkers gear, gas, tents and food. According to the Tanzanian law, it is not possible for travellers to climb Kilimanjaro without the support staff.

    Leslie

    Asked on July 3rd, 2019

    What is the night time temperature like on the summit of Kilimanjaro?

    Tour Details
    • Kilisa Tours & SafarisOperatorWritten July 2019

      The night time temperature at the Uhuru Point can range between 20 and -20 degrees Fahrenheit (-7 to -29 degrees Celsius). Due to Mount Kilimanjaro's great height, the mountain creates its own weather.

  • J

    Jacqueline

    Asked on July 3rd, 2019

    Can 70+ years old tourists climb Kilimanjaro?

    Age Range
    • Kilisa Tours & SafarisOperatorWritten July 2019

      Yes, there are travellers in their 70s and 80s who summit Kilimanjaro every year. However, it is recommended to seek professional medical advice first to ensure the person gets clearance from doctor. If they decide to trek the Kilimanjaro, it is also recommended to take one of the longer routes which provide more time for acclimatization.
