Great video. Thanks for sharing

thanks so much for this common sense guide. Hoping to concur Kili this coming December, Godwilling! 🙏

Like the T-shirt. Where can I buy one at?

Thanks for sharing 👌

I injured my back in 2019 and want to do it again in July. I'm told the Northern Circuit has the best success rate. Is this true?

All good advice though I would clarify the exercise advice by saying that, in my experience, weight training is unnecessary. You need endurance above all else but not speed as you will be literally walking at 1-2 mph the whole way. Do lots of slow but long walks, include as many hills and stairs as you can and try to do them in one go without stopping. Possibly work on making sure your lungs are good as the oxygen at the top is HALF what you are used to at sea level. You can get relatively cheap devices that help build the muscles used to breathe.

Hi, great vid. can I ask how you went about booking flights from the UK? Thanks

This is so accurate; anyone trying to climb Kilimanjaro; this is the information you need. Been there and made my way to Uhuru Peak.

I tipped some cash, and each porter got some gear as well, from my boots that I wore for 3 of the days, my sleeping bag, several shirts. I enjoyed the whole trip, only wish I had more time to add a safari and/or Zanzibar on after the climb.

Thanks for this! I’m doing Kili next month and I’m worried about it.

Hi, great video. Would you consider the Rab Ascent 1100 a decent sleepingbag for kili?
