Park fees and permits alone cost $900–$1,200 per climber — that is a fixed Tanzania government charge before anyone touches a guide or a tent. Our 7-day Machame at $1,950 means everything above the mandatory fees costs less than $140 per day — guide, crew, camping, meals, transfers, and 47 years of knowing exactly what goes wrong at 5,500m.
Not included (plan your full budget):
International flights — visa ($50 USD on arrival) — travel insurance with altitude cover — gear rental — crew gratuities (recommended $150–200 per climber) — hotel nights before/after the climb.

Most Climbers Add a Safari.
Here is Why.
You have just stood at 5,895m. The natural extension — a complete contrast of pace, altitude, and experience. Bobby Tours has operated both the mountain and the parks since 1978.
Private Safari
Design a Private Safari
After 8 days on the mountain, you have earned it. Our sister brand Magical Tanzania designs private safaris for Kilimanjaro summiteers — restorative, private, unhurried.
From $3,500 per person
Design Your SafariDirect Booking
Tanzania Safari Direct
4 parks, private vehicle, certified guide, all fees included. Book directly with the operator — no agent markup.
From $900 per person
See Safari OptionsAfter Kilimanjaro, most climbers want two things: warmth and rest. Zanzibar provides both. Add a Zanzibar extension — 3 days of salt water after the ice.
