Kilimanjaro Climbing
Mount Kilimanjaro is one of the world’s most accessible high summits, a beacon for visitors from around the world. Most climbers reach the crater rim with little more than a walking stick, proper clothing and determination. And those who reach Uhuru Point, the actual summit, or Gillman’s Point on the lip of the crater, will have earned their climbing certificates.
And their memories.
Galloping Safaris is one of the few specialist companies organizing high quality Kilimanjaro climbs. Several hundred-tour operators offer Kilimanjaro climbs. However, only a handful can be considered reputable. We are a local tour company so our prices are low, some of the highest most expensive companies consider it as cheap Kilimanjaro price.
