Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with A&K

A&K campsites are famous for their comforts. Our customized sleeping tents are the largest and most luxurious on the mountain, designed for two people with raised cots and tall ceilings. Solar-lit dining tents with comfortable tables and chairs allow you to rest and rejuvenate out of the elements. Hygienic private toilets are also exclusively available to A&K trekkers.

An important key to summiting Kilimanjaro is to maintain proper nutrition throughout your climb. Every meal we provide is designed to deliver the nutrition you need at every step. Unlike many other companies, A&K also provides fresh food throughout the entire trek, including abundant snacks between meals as well as unlimited, purified water. Special diets can also be accommodated.

A&K climbs use the finest climbing and camping apparatus, safety equipment and communications network. On every climb, we supply and carry all safety and emergency equipment, including: emergency oxygen, a portable altitude chamber, a defibrillator, pulse oximeters, a stretcher, an extensive first aid kit and three means of communication (cell phone, two-way radio and satellite phone).

Compared to the average of 60-70%, A&K expeditions to Mount Kilimanjaro boast a successful summit rate of 97%, giving you an outstanding chance of reaching “the roof of Africa.”

While most trekkers spend a total of five days on the mountain, climbers travelling with A&K benefit from seven days (six nights) to allow more time for premium altitude acclimatization.

Our sustainable treks operate from green campsites and leave no trace on the mountain. Every A&K camp is completely portable, with no fixed ground structures or plumbing, and we remove all waste and trash.
