Many years ago, a brilliant idea came to Wilbert Mollel, who then created the ‘Kiliwarriors,’ an astounding team aiming to transform ordinary lives through the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of conquering the tough heights of Mount Kilimanjaro.

In 2012, Wilbert crossed paths with Gerry Analytis, where they discovered an equal passion for mountain expeditions and unforgettable experiences. They decided to join their expertise to form Kiliwarrior Expeditions, infusing even more immersion, lasting memories, and transformative journeys into their trekkers’ expeditions.

With a perfect blend of Canadian organization and Tanzanian heritage, Kiliwarrior Expeditions is more than just a group of people—it is a community. Our passionate professionals guide you in turning your ambitious dream of standing on the majestic Roof of Africa and conquering Mount Kilimanjaro into a reality.

Renowned for providing exceptional safety standards, superior service quality, and an uncompromising attention to detail, our elite team stands as the principal outfitters for those who dare to reach new heights. Our meticulous preparations and strategies have earned us a 94% success rate, of which we are immensely proud.

Kilimanjaro. We are proud that through our careful preparation and planning, we have achieved a 94% success rate.

YOUR KILIMANJARO JOURNEY

We highly recommend and treasure the 9-Day expedition along the lesser-known Lemosho-Western Breach Route. As opposed to other established routes, this climb remains untamed, challenging, and astoundingly picturesque, making it an unforgettable journey. Your climb begins amidst the lush vegetation of the Rainforest Zone, encompassing landmarks such as the imposing Lava Tower, and the Western Breach. Thus, after a week of exhilarating hiking, the ultimate reward awaits: the peak of Kilimanjaro on Day 7.

ALL-INCLUSIVE PACKAGE

Our success comes from our attention to detail, and our All-Inclusive Package includes the services of highly trained guides and porters, state-of-the-art equipment catered to the needs of hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro. It also includes a Personal Day-Pack Porter, special equipment package, hotel accommodation before and after your climb, and all your meals, carefully prepared to provide you with the necessary energy and nutrients to reach the peak.
