For every trekker, there are typically 2-3 members of the support crew. This ensures that each participant receives the attention and support they need for a successful experience on Mount Kilimanjaro. The backbone of this team is a lead guide, who oversees the entire climb and manages the crew and his assistant guides.
An assistant guide plays a crucial role, accompanying trekkers on their hike, sharing insights about Kilimanjaro, and providing help whenever it's needed. The combination of guides and porters is vital for any Kilimanjaro adventure. They not only take you to Uhuru Peak but also enrich this amazing adventure by sharing stories and information about Tanzanian history, wildlife, legends, and culture.
Professional guides are invaluable to any operator. At Altezza Travel, we prioritize their well-being by offering competitive salaries and making substantial investments in their ongoing professional education.
