Just book with Altezza, and the rest will take care of itself.
From the moment my friend and I touched down in Tanzania to our final Altezza goodbye, we were stunned by the care, respect and joy we received.
Even after reading how positive the reviews were, we were blown away by the experience, from the planning to the personal touch.
From Anton who picked us up at the airport, Catherine who came into town to organise a doctor’s visit for me before the trek started, to every single one of the 57-strong crew who took control of everything on the mountain, we did not have a single interaction with an Altezza employee that didn’t exceed expectations.
The company has truly cultivated a special team that therefore makes every Altezza climber feel special.
We were part of a 12-person group that had a wide mix of ages and physical abilities, but we stuck together on summit night and every single person made it the top, which is a huge credit to the guides.
We reached the roof of Africa, and will remember that forever - but we will also remember the people we met, from the crew on the ground, to those who led the way on the mountain.
Oh, and the food! If you think you’re going to lose weight after a week on the mountain, think again! The meals are impossibly good and will keep you warm and energised for the physical demands of Kili.
We can’t thank Altezza enough, and will recommend the company to anyone who will listen to us!
P.S. You won’t regret booking a portable toilet.
