Depending on arrival times, you’ll have an opportunity to relax, meet some of your fellow adventurers and settle in before the journey begins.Accommodation: Weruweru River Lodge or similarMeals: At own costDay 2 | 26 August 2027Materuni Village, Waterfalls & Kilimanjaro BriefingToday is all about acclimatisation, culture and preparing for the adventure ahead.After breakfast, we’ll travel to the beautiful village of Materuni on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro. Our walk takes us through lush farmland and tropical vegetation to the stunning Materuni Waterfalls, where those keen can enjoy a refreshing swim beneath the falls.Along the way we’ll learn about local village life, agriculture and the traditions of the Chagga people. We’ll then visit a local coffee farm where we’ll experience the journey from bean to cup, joining in with the roasting, grinding and preparation of traditional Chagga coffee.After a delicious local lunch, we’ll return to Moshi for our Kilimanjaro briefing, gear check and final preparations before the trek begins.Accommodation: Weruweru River Lodge or similarMeals: Breakfast, Lunch and DinnerDay 3 | 27 August 2027Lemosho Gate (2,346m) to Mti Mkubwa Camp (2,878m)Distance: 6 kmWalking Time: 3–4 hoursHabitat: RainforestAfter breakfast we drive to Lemosho Gate on the western side of Mount Kilimanjaro. Following registration and formalities, we begin our trek through pristine rainforest, home to giant trees, colourful birdlife and playful black-and-white colobus monkeys.Today’s walk is relatively gentle and provides a wonderful introduction to life on the mountain as we make our way to Mti Mkubwa Camp, also known as Big Tree Camp.Accommodation: Mountain CampingMeals: Breakfast, Lunch and DinnerDay 4 | 28 August 2027Mti Mkubwa Camp (2,878m) to Shira 1 Camp (3,485m)Distance: 8 kmWalking Time: 5–6 hoursHabitat: Heath and MoorlandToday we leave the rainforest behind and enter the heath and moorland zone. The landscape changes dramatically as giant heathers, volcanic rock formations and sweeping mountain vistas replace the dense forest.As we steadily gain altitude, we’ll enjoy spectacular views across the Shira Plateau before arriving at Shira 1 Camp, surrounded by vast open landscapes and our first truly expansive views of Kilimanjaro.Accommodation: Mountain CampingMeals: Breakfast, Lunch and DinnerDay 5 | 29 August 2027Shira 1 Camp (3,485m) to Moir Hut (4,182m)Distance: 11 kmWalking Time: 5–7 hoursHabitat: Heath and MoorlandToday we spend a full day exploring the remarkable Shira Plateau, one of the highest plateaus in the world. The trail crosses open moorland with magnificent views of Kilimanjaro’s summit and the surrounding wilderness.Leaving the main route behind, we’ll continue towards the more remote Moir Hut, providing a quieter and less-travelled camping experience. This extra time at altitude plays an important role in helping our bodies acclimatise for the days ahead.Accommodation: Mountain CampingMeals: Breakfast, Lunch and DinnerDay 6 | 30 August 2027Moir Hut (4,182m) to Lava Tower (4,785m) to Barranco Camp (3,953m)Distance: 10 kmWalking Time: 6–8 hoursHabitat: Alpine DesertToday is one of the most important acclimatisation days of the trek as we follow the “climb high, sleep low” principle.We gradually ascend through the alpine desert towards the impressive Lava Tower, a towering volcanic rock formation sitting at 4,785 metres above sea level. After lunch at Lava Tower, we begin our descent to Barranco Camp.As we lose altitude, the landscape transforms once again and we enter the remarkable Senecio Forest, home to giant groundsels and some of Kilimanjaro’s most unique scenery.Although we finish the day at a similar elevation to where we started, the time spent at higher altitude plays a crucial role in preparing our bodies for the summit.Accommodation: Mountain CampingMeals: Breakfast, Lunch and DinnerDay 7 | 31 August 2027Barranco Camp (3,953m) to Karanga Camp (3,972m)Distance: 5 kmWalking Time: 4–5 hoursHabitat: Alpine DesertToday begins with one of Kilimanjaro’s most famous features — the Great Barranco Wall.While it may look intimidating from below, the climb is non-technical and is often one of the most enjoyable and memorable sections of the entire trek. Reaching the top rewards us with spectacular views across the mountain and surrounding valleys.From here, the trail undulates through a series of ridges and valleys before descending into the Karanga Valley and crossing the Karanga River, the final water source on the mountain.After lunch at Karanga Camp, we’ll enjoy a short acclimatisation walk before returning to camp for dinner and another night under the African sky.Accommodation: Mountain CampingMeals: Breakfast, Lunch and DinnerDay 8 | 1 September 2027Karanga Camp (3,972m) to Kosovo Camp (4,750m)Distance: 5 kmWalking Time: 4–5 hoursHabitat: Alpine DesertToday is a shorter trekking day as we make our way to Kosovo Camp, our base for summit night.The trail steadily climbs through a stark and rugged alpine landscape, offering magnificent views of both Kibo and Mawenzi Peaks.

As dawn begins to break across the African plains below, we’ll be rewarded with one of the most spectacular sunrises imaginable.From Stella Point, it’s a final push along the crater rim to Uhuru Peak — the highest point in Africa at 5,895 metres.Standing at the summit is a moment few will ever forget. It’s the culmination of months of preparation, determination and teamwork.After celebrating, taking photos and soaking up the achievement, we begin the long descent back to Kosovo Camp for a short rest before continuing down to Mweka Camp.Tonight, we’ll sleep soundly knowing we’ve stood on the Roof of Africa.Accommodation: Mountain CampingMeals: Breakfast, Lunch and DinnerDay 10 | 3 September 2027Mweka Camp (3,100m) to Mweka Gate (1,630m)Distance: 10 kmWalking Time: 3–4 hoursHabitat: RainforestOur final morning on the mountain sees us descend through lush rainforest towards Mweka Gate.After signing out of the National Park and collecting our summit certificates, we’ll say goodbye to our incredible mountain crew before transferring back to Moshi.A hot shower, comfortable bed and celebration dinner await as we reflect on the incredible achievement of reaching the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro.Accommodation: Weruweru River Lodge or similarMeals: Breakfast, Lunch and DinnerDay 11 | 4 September 2027Kilimanjaro Recovery & Celebration DayAfter the challenge of Kilimanjaro, today is all about recovery and celebration.Following a relaxed breakfast, we’ll enjoy a well-earned day to rest, freshen up and celebrate our achievement.

YES. Comprehensive travel insurance is compulsory for all Women Embrace Adventure travellers and must be purchased shortly after booking your place on this adventure.Personal travel insurance is not included in the tour price.This expedition includes trekking to an altitude of 5,895 metres on Mount Kilimanjaro, in a remote environment where medical facilities are limited and emergency evacuations can be extremely expensive. It is essential that your policy specifically covers high-altitude trekking to at least 6,000 metres, including emergency medical treatment and evacuation from remote mountainous regions.Your travel insurance policy must include:• Medical expenses, including accidents, injury, illness and death• Cover for any pre-existing medical conditions (where applicable)• Emergency evacuation and repatriation• High-altitude trekking up to at least 6,000 metres• Search and rescue expenses• Personal liability coverWe strongly recommend your policy also includes:• Trip cancellation and curtailment• Travel delays and missed connections• Lost, stolen or delayed luggage• Personal effects and equipment• Additional accommodation and transport costs due to unforeseen circumstancesPlease note that many standard travel insurance policies and some credit card travel insurance policies do not automatically cover trekking above 3,000–4,000 metres, and some exclude Mount Kilimanjaro altogether. It is your responsibility to carefully check the policy wording and ensure you have adequate cover for this specific adventure.Should an evacuation be required from high on the mountain, costs can run into many thousands of dollars. Inadequate insurance may leave you personally responsible for these expenses.Proof of valid travel insurance must be provided to Women Embrace Adventure prior to departure.

This adventure is graded as challenging and requires a good level of fitness, determination and preparation.While no mountaineering or technical climbing experience is required, Mount Kilimanjaro is not an easy walk. The challenge comes not only from the distance covered each day, but also from the effects of altitude, consecutive days of hiking and the physical and mental demands of trekking to 5,895 metres.On most trekking days, you can expect to walk between 4 and 8 hours, often uphill and on uneven terrain. Summit day is significantly more demanding, involving a midnight start and up to 12–14 hours of trekking before reaching camp.The good news is that this is not a race. We follow the mountain’s golden rule of “pole pole” (slowly, slowly), allowing plenty of time for acclimatisation and helping maximise everyone’s chance of reaching the summit safely and successfully.To get the most out of this adventure, we strongly encourage participants to arrive well prepared. You should be comfortable:• Walking for 6–8 hours in a day• Walking on consecutive days without needing extended recovery• Climbing hills and stairs for extended periods• Carrying a day pack weighing approximately 5–7 kg• Training consistently for several months leading up to departureThe fitter and stronger you are, the more you are likely to enjoy the experience. Good preparation allows you to focus on the incredible scenery, friendships and achievement rather than simply getting through each day.This is also a team adventure. Every member of the group contributes to the overall experience, and arriving physically prepared helps ensure the group can move safely, efficiently and enjoyably together.We understand everyone comes from different fitness backgrounds, which is why we will provide training advice and preparation guidance in the lead-up to departure. However, it is important that participants take personal responsibility for their fitness and arrive ready for the challenge.If you are willing to train, commit to your preparation and embrace a positive attitude, Kilimanjaro is an achievable goal for many adventurous women.The summit is earned long before you arrive in Africa — it begins with the preparation you do at home.We are happy to discuss if you are unsure. Send us an email to hello@womenembraceadventure.com.au and we will set up a time to chat.

Weather & ClimateOur adventure takes place during late August and early September, one of the best times of year to visit Tanzania. This period falls within Tanzania’s dry season, bringing generally clear skies, comfortable daytime temperatures and excellent trekking conditions on Mount Kilimanjaro.For those joining our optional Tanzania Safari Extension, this is also one of the best times of year for wildlife viewing, with animals gathering around permanent water sources and the possibility of witnessing the Great Migration in the Northern Serengeti.Because this adventure takes us from the warm plains of Africa to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro at 5,895 metres, we’ll experience a wide range of temperatures and conditions throughout the journey.Mount KilimanjaroAt the lower elevations, daytime temperatures are often between 20°C and 30°C, particularly in the rainforest and moorland zones. These lower sections are usually warm and comfortable for hiking, although occasional rain showers are possible.As we gain altitude, temperatures become progressively cooler. By the time we reach high camp at Kosovo Camp (4,750m), overnight temperatures can range from -5°C to -10°C, while summit night temperatures are commonly between -10°C and -20°C, particularly if there is wind.The mountain can experience sunshine, cloud, wind, rain and freezing temperatures all within the same day, so being prepared for changing conditions is essential.Summit NightSummit night is typically the coldest and most challenging part of the trek.We depart shortly before midnight and climb by headtorch towards Uhuru Peak. Temperatures are often well below freezing and wind chill can make it feel considerably colder.The good news? Once the sun rises, temperatures increase quickly and many trekkers find themselves shedding layers during the descent.Optional Tanzania Safari ExtensionSeptember is one of the best times of year for safari in Tanzania. Daytime temperatures are typically between 20°C and 30°C, while mornings and evenings can be surprisingly cool, particularly in the Ngorongoro Crater region where elevations exceed 2,000 metres.Early morning game drives can feel chilly in open safari vehicles, so a warm jacket or fleece is highly recommended.What This Means for YouOver the course of this adventure you may experience:• Warm tropical temperatures above 30°C• Comfortable hiking conditions between 10°C and 25°C• Frosty mornings at high altitude• Overnight temperatures below freezing• Summit temperatures potentially as low as -20°C• Cool safari mornings and warm African afternoonsDon’t let this sound intimidating. We’ll provide a detailed packing list, gear recommendations and plenty of support to help you prepare.Kat’s TipMost women worry about being cold on summit night. In reality, being properly layered, well-fed and moving steadily makes a huge difference. We’ll help you get your gear sorted long before we leave Australia. It might be cold, but you’ll be prepared!

Packing GuideKilimanjaro Trek & Optional Tanzania Safari ExtensionOne of the unique things about this adventure is that we’ll experience everything from warm African plains to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro at 5,895 metres.During the trek, temperatures can range from over 30°C at lower elevations to as low as -20°C on summit night.For women joining our Optional Tanzania Safari Extension, expect warm sunny days, cool mornings and comfortable evenings, making it one of the best times of year to experience Tanzania’s incredible wildlife.The key to packing successfully for this adventure is layers, layers and more layers!Don’t worry—we’ll provide a detailed packing list and plenty of support before departure.Kilimanjaro Packing GuideLayers Are EverythingMount Kilimanjaro takes us through multiple climate zones, from warm rainforest and moorland through to alpine desert and the Arctic summit zone.Your main duffel bag will be carried by porters and will only be available when you arrive at camp each afternoon. This means it is extremely important that you carefully pack your day pack with everything you may need during the day.At a minimum, your day pack should always contain:• Waterproof jacket• Warm layer• Hat and gloves• Water• Snacks• Personal medications• Sunscreen and lip balm• Camera or phoneWeather on Kilimanjaro can change quickly and it is possible to experience sunshine, wind, rain and freezing temperatures all in the same day.The final summit ascent is completed overnight and in the early hours of the morning. This is when the coldest temperatures are experienced, and you should be prepared for temperatures as low as -20°C.Kilimanjaro Hot Tips• Wear your hiking boots well before departure to avoid blisters.• Test your boots are genuinely waterproof before travelling.• Layers are far more effective than one bulky jacket.• Polarised sunglasses are highly recommended.• Bring spare batteries and a power bank as batteries drain quickly in cold temperatures.• Nalgene-style water bottles are often more reliable than hydration bladders at altitude.• Wipes - There are no showers on Kilimanjaro. A small bowl of warm water is usually provided each day for washing.• Trekking poles are highly recommended, especially for the descent.• Dry bags are invaluable for keeping clothing and electronics dry.Headwear• Headlamp (300+ lumens) and spare batteries• Polarised sunglasses• Buff, neck warmer or scarf• Warm beanie• Sun hatUpper Body• 2 thermal base layers• 2 fleece or mid-layers• Insulated down jacket• Waterproof rain jacket• 3–4 hiking shirts (including at least one long-sleeve shirt)Lower Body• 2 thermal base layers• 2 hiking pants• Waterproof rain pants• Insulated outer pants for summit nightHands• Lightweight liner gloves• Warm waterproof gloves or mittensFootwear• Waterproof hiking boots• 4 pairs hiking / wool socks• Comfortable camp shoesBags• 60–90L duffel bag (supplied in Tanzania and carried by porters)• 30–40L day pack (carried by you)• Small lockable bag for items left at the hotelSleeping• Four-season sleeping bag (rated to at least -10°C) or hire in Tanzania• Sleeping bag liner (recommended)• Inflatable pillow (optional)Personal Items• Toiletries• Personal medications• Sunscreen• Lip balm• Hand sanitiser• Wet wipes• Small first aid kit• Blister treatment• Sanitary products• Travel towelRecommended Extras• Trekking poles• Portable charger• Camera• Earplugs• Diamox (discuss with your doctor)• Hand warmers• Dry bags• Gaiters• Downloaded music, podcasts and booksEquipment HireDon’t worry if you don’t own every item on the packing list.KiliTwende offers a range of quality mountain equipment for hire in Tanzania, making it easy to access specialised gear without having to purchase it yourself.Common items available for hire include:• Sleeping bags• Trekking poles• Day packs• Waterproof jackets• Gaiters• Down jackets• Sleeping bag linersEquipment availability and prices may change, but we’ll provide an up-to-date hire list closer to departure.Kat’s TipFor many women, hiring some of the specialised Kilimanjaro gear is actually easier and often cheaper than buying it and bringing from Australia.Items such as sleeping bags, down jackets and gaiters may only be used for a handful of days during the trek and can take up a lot of room in your luggage. Hiring these items locally can save both money and packing space.We’ll help you work out what is worth bringing from home and what is easiest to hire once we get closer to departure.Optional Tanzania Safari Extension Packing GuideAfter Kilimanjaro, life gets considerably easier!For women continuing on our Optional Tanzania Safari Extension, September is one of the best times of year to visit Tanzania, with warm sunny days, cool mornings and excellent wildlife viewing.Comfortable, casual clothing is perfect for safari and, best of all, much of your Kilimanjaro clothing can double as safari wear.Safari Packing Tips• September temperatures typically range between 10°C and 30°C.• Early morning game drives can be surprisingly chilly, so pack a warm jacket or fleece.• Neutral or darker-coloured clothing works well for safari and can often be worn multiple times between washes.• Plastic bags are prohibited in Tanzania. We recommend using packing cubes, dry bags or reusable zip pouches instead.• Save copies of important documents such as your passport, travel insurance, flight details and visa both online and in hard copy.• Most safari accommodation offers laundry services for a small fee, so there is no need to pack 17 days worth of clothing.Kilimanjaro Gear StorageWomen joining the Optional Tanzania Safari Extension will be able to securely store any mountain gear they no longer need before heading off on safari. This includes items such as sleeping bags, down jackets, thermal clothing and other cold-weather gear, making safari packing much simpler and lighter.Clothing• 5–6 lightweight outfits (pants, dresses, skirts or long shorts)• 1–2 casual dinner outfits• 2–3 pairs lightweight hiking or travel pants• 4–5 lightweight shirts• Sleepwear• Underwear and socksWarm Clothing• 1–2 jumpers, fleeces or lightweight jackets• Lightweight thermal top and bottom (optional for those who feel the cold)• Lightweight rain jacketFootwear• Comfortable walking shoes or sneakers• Sandals or thongs• SocksSun Protection• Sun hat• Sunglasses• Sunscreen• Lip balmBags• Main suitcase or duffel bag• Small backpack or day pack• Packing cubes or dry bagsSpending Money• US dollars for drinks, souvenirs and tips• Credit card and/or debit cardTravel Documents• Passport (valid for at least 6 months beyond your return date)• Travel insurance details• Flight itinerary• Visa documentation (if required)• Copies of all important documents (printed and stored online)Day Bag Essentials• Reusable water bottle• Camera or phone• Portable charger• Binoculars (highly recommended)• Personal medications• Insect repellent• Hand sanitiser• Snacks for travel daysToiletries & Personal Items• Toiletries• Personal medications• Sanitary products• Small personal first aid kit• Contact lenses, glasses and solution (if required)• Travel adaptor• Microfibre towel• Swimmers (some accommodation may have pools)• Small umbrella (optional)Photography & Wildlife ViewingSeptember offers some of the best wildlife viewing in Tanzania, including the opportunity to witness the Great Migration in the Northern Serengeti.If photography is your thing, consider bringing:• Camera• Spare batteries• Spare memory cards• Zoom lens (if you have one)• Binoculars for wildlife viewingKat’s Packing TipMost women are surprised by how little safari gear they actually need.

Frequently Asked QuestionsBefore You BookDo I need travel insurance?Yes. Comprehensive travel insurance is compulsory for everyone joining this adventure.As this trip includes trekking to 5,895 metres on Mount Kilimanjaro, your policy must specifically cover high-altitude trekking to at least 6,000 metres, including emergency evacuation, search and rescue, medical treatment and repatriation.Many standard travel insurance policies and some credit card insurance policies do not automatically cover high-altitude trekking, so please check your policy carefully.Proof of valid travel insurance must be provided prior to departure.Are international flights included?No.Participants are responsible for arranging and paying for their own international flights to and from Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), Tanzania.We will provide recommended flight arrival and departure times well in advance.Do I need a visa for Tanzania?Most travellers will require a visa to enter Tanzania.Visa requirements vary depending on your nationality. We will provide detailed visa information and application instructions closer to departure.Are airport transfers included?Yes.Airport arrival transfers are included for all participants on the official arrival day.Departure transfers are included on the official departure day for both Kilimanjaro Trek participants and those continuing on the Optional Tanzania Safari Extension.I am travelling alone. Will I need to pay a single supplement?No.The trip price is based on twin-share accommodation. If you are travelling solo, we will pair you with another like-minded Women Embrace Adventure participant.Limited single supplements may be available at an additional cost.Can I Book the Kilimanjaro Trek now and decide about the Safari Extension later?Yes.You are welcome to book the Kilimanjaro Trek and add the Optional Tanzania Safari Extension later.However, if you think there’s a good chance you’ll want to join the safari, we strongly recommend booking both experiences at the same time. Accommodation, safari vehicles, park permits and local guides are often secured well in advance in Tanzania to ensure the best availability and pricing.While we will do our best to accommodate late additions, safari places are subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed.If you’re genuinely undecided, that’s absolutely fine too—we can discuss your options closer to departure.Do I have to join the Safari Extension ?No.The Tanzania Safari Extension is completely optional.Many women may choose to return home after completing Kilimanjaro, while others may decide to continue their African adventure with five incredible days exploring Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti.How many women will be on this adventure?To ensure a supportive and enjoyable experience, this adventure is limited to a maximum of 15 Women Embrace Adventure participants.Joining you throughout the Kilimanjaro Trek will be your Women Embrace Adventure host, experienced local KiliTwende mountain guides, cooks and porters.Women joining the Optional Tanzania Safari Extension will continue their adventure with experienced local safari guides and drivers.KilimanjaroDo I need mountaineering experience?No.Kilimanjaro is a trekking peak and does not require any technical climbing or mountaineering experience.However, a good level of fitness and a commitment to training before departure are essential.What level of fitness do I need?This adventure is graded as challenging and requires a good level of fitness, determination and preparation.You should be comfortable walking for 6–8 hours in a day, walking on consecutive days, climbing hills and carrying a day pack weighing approximately 5–7 kg.No technical climbing experience is required, but the altitude, multiple days of trekking and summit day challenge should not be underestimated.The fitter and stronger you are, the more enjoyable your experience is likely to be.How much will I carry during the trek?Only your day pack.Your main duffel bag will be carried by porters. Most women carry a day pack weighing approximately 5–7 kg containing water, snacks, extra clothing, medications and personal items needed throughout the day.What happens if I get altitude sickness?Altitude affects everyone differently, regardless of age or fitness level.Our guides monitor all trekkers closely throughout the climb and conduct regular health checks. If a participant develops symptoms of altitude sickness, the guides will determine the safest course of action, which may include rest, medication, descending to a lower altitude or evacuation if necessary.The itinerary has been specifically designed to maximise acclimatisation and improve summit success rates.What is the summit success rate on this route?While no Kilimanjaro summit can ever be guaranteed, the 8-day Lemosho Route is widely regarded as one of the best routes on the mountain for acclimatisation and overall summit success.The extra days spent on the mountain allow your body more time to adapt to the altitude, significantly improving your chances of reaching the summit compared to shorter itineraries.Our goal is to give every woman the best possible opportunity to stand on the Roof of Africa through careful preparation, a gradual itinerary and the support of an experienced guide team.What if I don’t reach the summit?While reaching Uhuru Peak is our goal, there are no guarantees when it comes to high-altitude trekking.Altitude affects everyone differently, regardless of age or fitness level. Our guides will always prioritise your health and safety, and in some circumstances it may be necessary to descend before reaching the summit.Remember, climbing Kilimanjaro is an incredible achievement in itself. Whether you reach the summit or not, you’ll still experience one of the world’s great trekking adventures and create memories that will stay with you forever.What are the toilets like on Kilimanjaro?One of the questions we get asked most often!KiliTwende provides a private portable toilet for our group throughout the trek. While camping on Kilimanjaro is certainly not luxury travel, having access to a private toilet is a huge advantage and something many climbers greatly appreciate.What are the camps like?Accommodation on the mountain is in quality two-person trekking tents.KiliTwende also provides a dining tent with tables and chairs where we enjoy meals, briefings and social time together. While conditions are basic compared to a hotel, the mountain crew work incredibly hard to make the experience as comfortable as possible.Why have we chosen KiliTwende?Quite simply, because we’ve climbed Kilimanjaro with them before and loved the experience.On our previous Women Embrace Adventure Kilimanjaro trek, KiliTwende exceeded our expectations in every way. Their guides were knowledgeable, professional and genuinely invested in helping every member of the group have the best possible experience on the mountain.From the incredible food and organisation to the care shown by the guides, cooks and porters, it was clear that KiliTwende takes great pride in what they do.They also provide a number of comforts that make life on the mountain a little easier, including a private dining tent, tables and chairs, quality camping equipment and a private portable toilet for our group.Most importantly, we trust them. We’ve shared the mountain with them before, and we’re excited to return with another group of adventurous women to take on Kilimanjaro together.Safari & TravelWhat currency should I bring?The local currency in Tanzania is the Tanzanian Shilling (TZS), however US dollars are widely accepted in many tourism-related businesses.We recommend bringing some US dollars in cash for souvenirs, drinks, tips and personal purchases.Can I use credit cards and ATMs?Credit cards are accepted in many hotels and larger businesses, however cash is still widely used throughout Tanzania.ATMs are available in larger towns and cities but may not be readily available during parts of the adventure.We recommend carrying a combination of cash and a credit card.Will I need to tip?Yes.Tipping is an important part of the tourism industry in Tanzania and is customary for mountain guides, porters, safari guides and hospitality staff.A detailed tipping guide will be provided prior to departure so you can budget accordingly.It is not necessary to tip your Women Embrace Adventure host.Is Tanzania safe?Yes.Tanzania is one of East Africa’s most popular tourism destinations and welcomes visitors from around the world each year.As with travel anywhere, common sense should always be used and guidance from your WEA host and local guides should be followed.What vaccinations do I need?Vaccination requirements and recommendations can vary depending on your country of residence and travel history.We strongly recommend booking an appointment with a travel doctor at least three months prior to departure to discuss vaccinations, medications and health precautions.Is malaria a concern?Malaria is not present on Mount Kilimanjaro itself due to the altitude, however it can occur in lower altitude areas of Tanzania, including some safari regions.We recommend discussing malaria prevention options with your travel doctor before departure.Is the food and water safe?During the trek, all drinking water is treated and prepared by our mountain crew.On safari and in hotels, bottled or filtered drinking water will be provided.As with travel anywhere, we recommend sensible hygiene practices including regular hand washing and carrying hand sanitiser.I have dietary requirements or food allergies.
