On approaching Kilimanjaro airport you will be able to sight seeing the mountain and on departure especially in the afternoons as in the morning it is covered with clouds.

Mountain climbers have to stay for minimum 5 days to be able to accomplish their tour to Mountain Kilimanjaro and nothing less than that and they are packages categorized into two namely climber and standard packages. There are different routes used namely Lemosho,Machame,Marangu,Rongai,Umbwe via Arrow Glacier and every route has been packaged differently. It is advantageous when you are in a group as you will enjoy discounted rates. Also note climbs can be done each and every day of the year and you can choose any date that suits your schedule. However, if you would like to join an existing group, then it will be possible to join any of the existing climbs as per the schedule. Though joining these groups will offer a social benefit but you will not enjoy financial benefit as the package will remain the same. Your are advised before you make your travel arrangements check and make your reservations as you might arrive and find the climbing activities full and you might wait for long thus spending much more money on accommodation,meals,park fees which is not necessary. Though the climbing dates starts at any day and are flexible but it will be subject to availability.
