Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro is certainly not a very cheap holiday. Several hundred operators are in a tough competition for Kilimanjaro business. Each company has their own price tag and a list of services that they provide during the journey to the top of Africa. The prices may vary wildly ranging from US$ 1500 to US$ 4500 or above depending on the quality of the services they provide or the quality of the equipment they use during the climb. The prices will also largely vary with the inclusions offered by the climbing operators. You may find some operators advertising their cheap Kilimanjaro climbing trips on the internet or elsewhere quoting prices below US$ 1500. We recommend you staying away from these types of operators who try to lure innocent people with their low price offers and later add all the extra costs and hidden charges.
