Routes they offer
As listed on their own site. Each link goes to our independent guide to that route, not to the operator. Listed · 2026-08
Where your money goes
Park fees are identical for every operator on the mountain. Subtract them and what is left is what this company has to run your climb: guides, porters, food, tents, transport and margin. We compute this from the published TANAPA tariff, so it is comparable across every operator here.
Prices read from the operator's own pages on 2026-08-14. Fees computed for a non-East African adult on the stated itinerary, VAT included. A low figure is a question to ask them, not a finding against them. How park fees work

Worth knowing
- Prices are quoted as total trip days, not days on the mountain. The 9-day Machame is a 7-day trek plus two lodge nights. We normalise to trek days so the park fee maths is right.
- Airport transfers are not included, at $40 per person each way.
- Their tipping guidance of $250 to $350 is stated per group rather than per climber, which is low for a crew of around 40.
