Peak Planet has been setting the standard for climbing Kilimanjaro since 2008. We hire the best and most experienced Kilimanj ... aro guides. They are all Wilderness First Responder certified. We staff our climbs with a 1:2 guide to climber ratio. Our guides conduct daily health checks to measure pulse, temperature, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation every day. We are partnered with IFREMMONT, a European high altitude medical training organization. Together we co-developed Peak Planet’s Kilimanjaro safety and rescue protocols. We cover all our clients with AMREF Flying Doctors evacuation insurance so we could transport someone quickly via helicopter to a hospital. We offer ALTOX Personal Oxygen Systems and portable Hyperbaric bags which reduce or eliminate symptoms of altitude sickness. Our equipment is by Ferrino Equipment, an Italian equipment manufacturer that has been making high altitude tested equipment since 1890. Our clients will love our roomy tents, sleeping bags, and comfortable pads. We use Garmin inReach to track and communicate with every trekking party. These handheld satellite communicators can be used to initiate and coordinate a rescue. We prepare hot meals on the mountain using fresh, local ingredients. Our mountain chefs will pleasantly surprise you with delicious entrees. We have specially designed our menu to give you enough calories for high altitude trekking. Additionally, we offer vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and kosher meals. We are members of the Kilimanjaro Porters Assistance Project (KPAP) – a non-profit organization that monitors Kilimanjaro operators to protect the welfare of porters. We are also a member of Leave No Trace. One of our main goals is to offer a great value for high-quality services. So we evaluate every expense carefully to ensure that every cost we incur makes a tangible difference in your experience. We want to have the best service at a fair price without compromising our high standards. read more
