Tipping Suggestion

Tippings can be givento the crew,i.e porters,cooks,guides and drivers at the end of their service.Below,there is a tipping guide line we recommend,but sometimes some of the climbers tend to tip more or less than the minimum option,depending to how happy or unhappy they are with the service they receave from our crew or how well prepared the climber is.

Tippings for Mountain Crew

The best place and day to tip your crew is the last day of your climb at the hotel/office.The first day when you meet your chief guide for climb briefing,he will let you know the size of your crew,and different responsibilities between them.Then,he will provide you with the envelopes with the name of each crew member.After you decide how much to tip each one of your crew,you will distribute to the crew individually,when you meet them in the office or at your hotel.At this moment,you may also sing Kilimanjaro/jambo songs together with your crew,and taking a memorable group photo.If you have a word to tell your team,this is the wright time.

Tipping Guideline for Drivers

You can tip your driver between $10 - $20 per group. Your driver can be the one who picks you up from the Airport, takes you to the Airport, or who drives you to the entrance gate or picks you up from the exit gate.
