Kilimanjaro Park Fees

In 2006, the Kilimanjaro National park fees were dramatically increased. Almost all outfitters mountaineering companies include the park fees into the overall price of the trip. However, it’s important to see how the price breaks down:

This is PER PERSON, PER DAY on the mountain.

Daily Charge $60.00
For a six day trip, you would pay $360.00 per person to the Tanzanian government. On a seven day trip, you would pay $420.00 per person.

Night Charge $40.00
For a six day trip, you would pay $200.00 per person to the Tanzanian government. On a seven day trip, you would pay $240.00 per person.

Rescue Insurance $20.00
This is a one time fee.

That means, on a typical trip up Mt. Kilimanjaro, you would pay between $580 to $680 PER PERSON to the Tanzanian government. All tour operators absorb this cost and pay it for the client.
