Inside "Welcome to Kilimanjaro"

Welcome to Kilimanjaro

Jambo!
I am Wilbert Mollel, your Kiliwarrior expedition leader and companion in Tanzania! Welcome to my Country and Kilimanjaro - a beacon for visitors
from around the world. My partners, Eben & Carol, are based in Virginia USA.
They will take care of your booking details and
answer your questions . When you arrive in Tanzania, my team and I
will meet you and look after your well-being during your stay.
It will be our pleasure to lead you safely up and down our majestic mountain.
Along the way, my team and I will tell you about our culture, we will share our
mountain knowledge, and we will do our very
best to ensure that you return home with much more than a climbing certificate.
The memories of our trip together will last forever.
But the hike itself is
just one part of the Kilimanjaro experience. By investing in the best people and
equipment, we've turned high-altitude camping into a work of art!
At the end of most days, you can freshen up in a private hot shower. Then relax
in a comfortable chair with armrests and a soft back - bringing instant relief
to your hardworking legs, feet and back!
At night you will appreciate the 62sq ft floor space of your expedition-quality
tent - with a mattress and pillow, 50 inches of headroom, a lamp and
other amenities.
Dinner is a jovial occasion as we celebrate a long-day's climb with good food in
the comfort of our mess tent. You will enjoy the laughter as our porters and
guides poke fun at each other - our chemistry is excellent because I care deeply
about my mountain team.
Safety is my personal responsibility. We are qualified to deal with emergencies
and we equip every climb with the most advanced safety equipment on the mountain:
First Aid Kits, Cell Phones, Satellite Phones, 2-Way Radios, Pulse Oximeters, Portable Altitude
Chambers (only needed when sleeping in the Crater), and extra oxygen. We are the FIRST
and one of very few companies to carry
Automated External Defibrillators on our
climbs.
Responsible climbing is another high
priority for us. We are the first company to implement Clean-Mountain-Can
technology and have a clear
vision and
policy for human waste management.
Now let me introduce you to some of the
senior members of my team:

8 years
experience), Beatus Mushi (Chef with 17 years experience)
Seated from left to right: Yours truly, a
recent client John Stump, and Faraja Mwaijande (Guide with more
than 150 trips to the summit).
My guides and I speak fluent English. I
am fluent in French. We even have guides who speak Spanish and Japanese!
My team and I are excited to lead you to the top of Kibo, and I look
forward to meet you upon arrival!
Travel Safe!
