Our Competitive Advantage

Tanzania On Foot is a Tanzanian based company that employs only professional and qualified mountain guides who have successfully summited Kilimanjaro several times.

This high set of standards guarantees that the service you receive is knowledgeable, accurate and in your best interest.

We only succeed when our clients succeed and as a result we are dedicated to getting you to the top of the mountain safely and confidently.

Doing the Right Thing for You

The question most climbers have when they set off to find a suitable tour operator is who should I use and from the cost differentials offered

by the operators, one might think that the higher the cost, the better the service. This is definitely not the case! Tanzania On Foot specializes in creating a safe and comfortable experience for our clients. This means smaller, private parties. Some of the operators will “bunch” climbers together in order to save money on staff. While this is good for the operator, this is terrible for you! You want to look for an operator who charges a fair price for their service. Compare us to our competitors of comparable price and you will find that we provide more services included in our price without all the additional fees others are charging. If you find otherwise, let us know! You also need an operator who is responsible and available for your questions. Even if you have been researching a trip to Kilimanjaro for months, as soon as you book, the questions will start flowing just about non-stop. This means you are mentally getting ready and that is a good thing!

Honest and Safe Service for a Fair Price

There are many high priced operators who charge as much as 3 times what Tanzania On Foot charges and the only thing better that happens is the operator gets to collect more profit from each trip. Your experience with Tanzania On Foot will be top rate and the service and safety on the mountain will be second to none. Alternatively there are low priced operators who promise the same level of service, but while that seems attractive at face value, you just know logically that you cannot produce a quality trip for a low price. Tanzania On Foot only works with the number one team of guides and porters on the mountain, which ensures your trip will be comfortable, safe and successful.

Individual Attention

Why is a smaller party better? The reason is simple; each of our on-mountain staff can give you more personal service and will be able to cater to everyone’s needs versus forcing you to conform to the needs of the group. The number one success factor in climbing Kilimanjaro is being able to climb at your own pace. This factor cannot be emphasized enough! Our staff to client ratios is approximately 4 to 1, while our competition offers 2 to 1 or worse.

Tanzania On Foot tries to maintain private parties of 14 or less for optimum personalized service. We understand that unless you want to travel with strangers, the most comfortable way to trek is amongst friends. If you are alone and want to share the experience with fellow climbers, we will offer several trips throughout the climbing seasons where you can be added to a small group.

Continued Service

Some operators are nice and cozy until you make your payment and then their true colors shine through.
