Absolutely Kili and Travel is a locally-owned Tanzanian company based in Arusha, at the foot of Kilimanjaro. We began where the country's greatest adventure begins - on the mountain - and grew into a team that now guides the whole journey, from the summit to the Serengeti to the shores of Zanzibar.
Our guides grew up in the shadow of Kilimanjaro, learning its routes, its weather and its moods long before they led their first climbers to Uhuru Peak. That intimate knowledge of the mountain is where Absolutely Kili and Travel was born.
Over time, the travellers who trusted us with their climb began asking us to plan the rest of their Tanzania too – a Serengeti safari here, a week on Zanzibar there. So we built a team who could do it all, seamlessly and to the same standard. Today we craft complete, tailor-made journeys across Tanzania and East Africa, still with the mountain at our heart.
Why we do what we do - and the standard we hold ourselves to on every climb, safari and beach.
To share the Tanzania we love through safe, tailor-made adventures led by local experts - climbs, safaris and beach escapes crafted with care and delivered with warmth, honesty and deep respect for our people and our wild places.
To be East Africa's most trusted local specialist for Kilimanjaro and beyond - proof that world-class, responsible travel is best delivered by the people who call this country home.
