We offer once in a lifetime opportunities for you to tick off a huge bucket list challenge whilst making a lasting difference to children’s lives in rural Tanzanian communities.

Towering above the African Serengeti, legendary Kilimanjaro stands at a mighty 5,895m above sea level, making it the highest point in Africa and the world’s tallest freestanding mountain. A regular feature on bucket lists, Kilimanjaro makes for a fantastic challenge, taking in jungle, volcanic landscapes, glaciers and classic African Serengeti.

This opportunity will begin with a visit to one of our partner schools that we work closely with. It will be a chance for cultural exchange, meet the children you will support and have loads of fun, Tanzanian style!

Climb With an Experienced Team

You will be safely in the hands of an expert climber of Kilimanjaro: Dave Pickles A responsible, friendly and small company (Companies House registration: 12617742)

Dave has summited Kilimanjaro 68 times and has taken over 3,500 people to the top in the last 25 years. He has a 98% summit success rate (the Kilimanjaro park average is only 48%!). This is due to the experience Dave has, the pre-training he supports you with, the doctor that hikes with you and making safety a number one priority.
