Your Tour Questions

  • How much does it cost?

    From US$4,600 per person for the approximately one-hour option, subject to written confirmation of availability, aircraft capacity and inclusions. Ground transfers are quoted separately.

  • Where does the flight depart?

    The researched option departs from Moshi Airport. Your final confirmation specifies the reporting point and time; it is not automatically a Kilimanjaro International Airport departure.

  • How long is the experience?

    The researched flight is about one hour. Allow additional time for reporting, briefing, loading and any ground transfers.

  • Will we land on the summit?

    No summit landing is included. This page does not offer a crater overflight; the pilot follows the authorised route.

  • Is the helicopter private?

    We confirm whether your quotation is for an exclusive charter or a seat-based arrangement. Do not assume exclusivity from a per-person price.

  • Can children join?

    Share their ages when enquiring. The operator must confirm age, seating and restraint requirements and the applicable fare.

  • What if the weather is unsuitable?

    The operating company decides whether the flight can proceed. Rebooking and refund conditions must be confirmed in writing before payment.

  • Are transfers included?

    Ground transfers are quoted separately unless your written offer includes them.

  • What should I bring?

    Follow the operator’s baggage and clothing guidance. Secure loose belongings, keep your camera safely stowed during boarding and use it only as instructed.

  • How do we reserve?

    Send your preferred date, number of travellers and pickup location. We check the flight and send a written quotation before asking you to commit.

    We use your details to respond and plan your requested trip. Please do not include passport scans, card details or medical diagnoses. Privacy Policy.
