Our all inclusive ‘group departures’ are probably the best way to climb Kilimanjaro! Share an unforgettable adventure with up to 20 or so like minded folk.

• “Dads & lads” departures
• On the popular Lemosho Route
• Pairs or groups of father & sons
• High quality services & hospitality
• With or without airline flights

Our blueprint for the Dads & Lads Kilimanjaro Climb is built around delivering a safe, solid, and unforgettable experience. Each group is led by a seasoned UK Mountain Leader who knows the mountain inside out and keeps everything running smoothly from base to summit. A UK expedition medic is also on hand throughout, fully equipped to look after the team’s wellbeing.

This expert support gives everyone the best shot at smashing the challenge—while enjoying an epic adventure with a crew of like-minded blokes. It’s all about teamwork, grit, and making memories that’ll stick for life.

We go to great lengths to ensure that we only use the best local organisations to supply the all-important ground logistics and the on-challenge support, catering, and hospitality teams – with experienced guides leading the way on the trails with their deep local knowledge and authentic style.

Join a crew of like-minded dads and lads, all up for a proper adventure. Everyone’s got their own story. Some are reconnecting, some ticking off a bucket list, and some just want to climb it because it’s there. Fundraise for a charity cause close to your heart if you wish.

Call your dad, or grab your lad and join this special group climb. Together, you’ll take on a once-in-a-lifetime challenge as part of a supportive team. It’s about grit, laughs, and having each other’s back all the way to the summit.

Enjoy the comfort of our private campsites, reserved just for your group. After a solid day on the mountain, it’s the perfect spot to kick back, refuel, and swap stories after a tough day’s trekking. The communal mess tent is where the real magic happens—hot meals, stories, and the kind of campsite banter only dads and lads can deliver.

We’ve got private toilet tents at camp and lunch stops—keeping things clean and convenient, even halfway up a mountain. It’s all about adding a few small comforts to a rugged adventure, so you can focus on the challenge, the chat, and the summit ahead.

Whether it’s the hotels,  restaurants & transfers before & after the main challenge – or the challenge accommodation & meals whilst out on the trails – our all inclusive packages mean that you will get a top quality experience at a great value price! Flights are generally included, but there’s a ‘land only’ option if you’d prefer to book your own – and single supplement accommodation upgrades are available.

After tackling the mountain together, the group gets to kick back and celebrate in style on the final night. Expect medals, a few awards, and maybe even a bit of a party to mark the achievement. 

You’ll go up the mountain with a group of strangers and come back down with new friends – so it’s a proper send-off after a tough challenge well done.

A successful challenge starts with good preparation. The better prepared you are the more confident you’ll be, and the more you’ll enjoy it! Our ‘Challenge App’ will have all the info & details of what to expect on your challenge – and how to prepare for it – and we have optional training walks, training weekends , and a place on one of our UK Ultra Challenge events to get out on the tails and test your fitness, kit, & equipment.
