No two expeditions are ever the same. The mountain, the team, and the conditions shape every decision we make—from the route we choose to the pace we set.
See what it feels like to climb Kilimanjaro with Mountain Climbing Adventures—from the first day on the trail to the moment you stand on the Roof of Africa. Guided by experience, shaped by thoughtful decisions, and shared with an incredible team.
After decades on Kilimanjaro, this is the route we recommend for most climbers. It provides the time, acclimatization, and flexibility needed for a safer, more enjoyable, and more successful expedition.
From the moment you land in Tanzania until you return home, we've taken care of the details—accommodations, transportation, meals, permits, and logistics—so you can focus on the experience.
Our professional mountain team has guided climbers on Kilimanjaro for more than two decades. Built on experience, careful judgment, and genuine care, we're here to help you climb with confidence.
Paul DeAngelis
Founder & Expedition Leader
For more than two decades, I’ve guided people in some of the world’s most challenging mountain environments. I’ve led over 55 expeditions on Kilimanjaro and have spent my career helping people achieve goals they once believed were beyond them.
Mountain Climbing Adventures was built on a simple belief: every climber deserves to be guided with experience, honesty, and genuine care. From your first question until you return home, my commitment is to make your expedition safe, personal, and unforgettable.
Local Team. Global Standards.
Our professional mountain team has guided climbers on Kilimanjaro for more than two decades. Built on experience, careful judgment, genuine care, and deep knowledge of the mountain, they are the people who quietly make extraordinary journeys possible.
From the moment you arrive in Tanzania until you return home, they are there to support every step of your expedition—managing logistics, preparing camp, monitoring your well-being, and creating an environment where you can focus on the experience rather than the details.
For many of our climbers, the relationships they build with our guides, cooks, and porters become one of the most meaningful parts of the journey.
“I had 100% faith in Paul. I KNEW he knew what he was doing. I never once hesitated to trust him.”
Connor Kleisinger
“Paul was an excellent leader. He kept us informed and advised us every step of the way. It was obvious he knew Kilimanjaro, its routes, and—most importantly—the pace we should travel. He was always checking on each of us individually. I trusted him completely.”

“I’d do it all again in a minute—but I wouldn’t do any trip like this without him.”
