Our Guides & Porters

Here’s what you can expect from our guides and porters:

• High Safety Standards: Our guides are trained to spot and avoid potential hazards like slippery trails and loose rocks. They can prevent, recognize, and treat altitude-related illnesses, ensuring your well-being throughout the climb.
• Expert Climb Knowledge: Although Kilimanjaro trails are well-marked, there’s more to a successful climb than just following the path. Our guides expertly consider weather conditions, trail density, rest stops, and the pacing of the group to make sure you move safely and efficiently.
• Mountain Facts: Your guide will share fascinating insights about the mountain’s vegetation zones, altitudes, geology, and wildlife. These details enhance your experience by helping you appreciate the unique environment around you.

Our guides love working with us because we prioritize small, private groups on the best routes, ensuring a more personalized and enjoyable experience.

We Take Care of Our Porters—So They Can Take Care of You

At Tanzania Giants Tours, we are committed to uplifting the local community that makes your trek possible. Tanzania is one of the poorest nations in the world, with an average annual income of only $700. Many trekking companies take advantage of this, paying their porters and guides minimal wages. But we are different. We believe in empowering and rewarding our team, paying them twice the average local salary—all without charging you extra.
