MOSHI, TANZANIA – Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro is on many trekkers lifetime bucket list - that list of things they want to do before they die. Over 35,000 adventurers start on the climb each and every year, with about 60% of them reaching the top summit. While some hikers have made the trek more than once, for most people, it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience they treasure and prepare for with years of physical training and mental determination. Those who summit report elation and amazing views.
Mt. Meru is an entirely different mountain that only the most skilled climbers can summit or even attempt. Very few have successfully reached the peak of Mt. Meru, which is exactly why climbers still try – to overcome a challenge few have conquered, pushing their body and mind to their limits. Others use shorter hikes to get acclimated to the altitude, critical for successfully climbing Kilimanjaro.
Each and every year, Zara International Travel Agency supports adventurers looking to add Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Meru to their list of accomplishments. With over 80 multi-lingual porters trained in safety and climbing protocol, it’s no wonder they were awarded Tanapa Tourism Awards/Tanzania National Parks Award 1st Prize for Best Tour Operator in the area of Mountain Climbing including both Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru for 2017/2018. They also won Best Tour Operator Overall for the same period.
