Mt Kilimanjaro Conquest

While Cheli & Peacock are world-renowned as safari specialists, they can also help you reach the top of Africa’s highest mountain — a nine-day Mount Kilimanjaro Conquest climbing safari — a gradual and breathtakingly beautiful trek to the roof of Africa.

Highlights:

• A more leisurely route that allows for acclimatization.
• Ascend through afro-montane forest to the edge of the remnants of Shira volcano and avoid the crowds.
• Circumnavigate Kibo (the main peak) passing some spectacular features such as giant steps and glacial valleys.
• Final night-time ascent of the Uhuru Peak via Stella Point.
• Descent via the Mweka Route
• Professional, experienced mountain guides with first-class safety objectives including the latest technology, training, tools, communication and support
• Available year-round

More Information:

• After the climb, trekkers transfer to East Africa’s soft white beaches and historic coastal towns, a safari destination, or depart for home.
• This is a private itinerary, but please feel to contact us if you would prefer a scheduled departure.
• Climbing the mountain is not like a normal safari — it’s far more strenuous and participants require a specific level of fitness. A fitness preparation guide is available.

• Not suitable for children under the age of nine years.
• Rates available on request for groups larger than eight passengers.
