Before your Kilimanjaro climb, we take the time to get to know you. During your personal consultation, you meet both Emmanuel and our head guide, so you can feel for yourself if it’s a good match. This matters when preparing for a long mental and physical challenge — and it’s reassuring to already know who you’ll be climbing with.
We discuss your preferences for the route, dietary needs, additional options, fitness, and motivation. From this, we can best tailor the climb to suit your profile, ensuring your experience is safe, comfortable, and aligned with your goals. You’re always welcome to ask about our exprience and approach along the way.

Climbs crafted from first-hand knowledge
Starting out as a porter and later serving as an assistant guide, Emmanuel has summited Kilimanjaro countless times via multiple routes, sometimes climbing simply for the joy of it. His hands-on experience gives him unparalleled insight into every aspect of a climb — from team dynamics to mountain conditions.
He notices the details that are often overlooked and leaves nothing to chance, ensuring every climb is executed with skill, precision, and care.
Safety & Wellbeing on the Mountain
Your safety is our highest priority during the climb. We take the time to understand your fitness level, medical history, and any specific health considerations, allowing us to prepare each trek with care and precision.
Our climbs follow a carefully paced itinerary focused on proper acclimatization rather than speed. Throughout the trek, our experienced guides conduct and record daily health checks while continuously observing climbers for early signs of altitude-related issues.
We provide nutritious, Western-standard meals, as safe and nourishing food is essential when your body is under physical strain and adapting to altitude. Each group is supported by a well-staffed guiding team, ensuring constant supervision and clear decision-making when it matters most.
Our guides are not only trained in emergency procedures, but also have hands-on experience coordinating air rescue and safely managing situations where a group must be split — ensuring that every climber receives the right level of care without compromising the safety of the rest of the team. Reaching the summit should never come at the expense of your health.
Responsible by Practice, not by Badge
We believe that true responsibility on Mount Kilimanjaro is measured by daily practice, not by certifications. While ethical badges can offer reassurance to climbers, they often say little about the real, day-to-day reality on the mountain.
For us, the wellbeing of our team is the only benchmark that truly matters. We pay our porters a fair, market-based salary and provide them with nutritious meals throughout the climb. On every trek, two to three close friends or family members of our team climb alongside the group, offering honest and independent feedback on working conditions, porter wellbeing, and the fair distribution of tips.
This direct and continuous insight allows us to stay accountable where it counts most — on the mountain itself. We see this as a more reliable and meaningful measure of responsibility than pursuing certifications, especially in an industry where many operators hold the right badges without truly knowing what happens during a climb.
As Emmanuel’s younger brother, I join our Kilimanjaro climbs to see first-hand how our team works — My presence ensures transparency, so everyone is treated with dignity and respect on the mountain.
