There is something about standing on the highest point on a continent that is attracting a lot of people to mountain climbing these days. It is an exhilarating feeling for sure, but it also is a lot of work and can be dangerous. Mt. Kilimanjaro is the highest peak in Africa and it is also one of the more accessible big mountains in the world. Even with that being the case, you are well advised to use local knowledge to help you reach the summit.
The 7-day Marangu Route tour up Kilimanjaro is one of the best around and it offers great value. For more about climbing the mountain, visit the legendary Mt. Kilimanjaro Logue.
