Pre & Post Accommodation

Comfortable accommodation options in Moshi and Arusha before and after your Kilimanjaro climb.

Accommodation Options

We recommend arriving at least one day before your climb to rest, attend the pre-climb briefing, and ensure all equipment is ready. Similarly, staying an extra night after your climb allows you to celebrate, rest, and prepare for your next adventure or departure.

Why Stay Extra Nights?

  • Pre-climb: Rest from travel, attend briefing, organize gear, acclimatize to time zone
  • Post-climb: Rest and recover, celebrate your achievement, prepare for safari or departure
