Kilimajaro Guide: Overview

Kilimanjaro Guides Overview

The Kilimanjaro Guides are the most important part of the Kilimanjaro trekking groups. On your Mount Kilimanjaro Hike, they not just provide mental and emotional support but also cheer the climbers and help them achieve maximum success rate.

Why we need the Kilimanjaro Guides?

While climbing thousands of feet above the sea level in the extremes of temperatures and pressure, no matter how much experience of hiking you have, your summit success rate largely depends on your Kilimanjaro Guides.They have climbed the summit numerous times and are well accustomed to the challenges it poses and how to tackle them. They are even well equipped with handling medical emergencies that the climbers may face due to altitude sickness on the summit.               

What are the qualities of a Great Kilimanjaro Guide?

The following qualities are a necessity in Kilimanjaro Guides that help achieve great summit success rate on Mount Kilimanjaro Hike:

  1. Trained in Medical Emergency:

The life-saving skills that can treat a person suffering from acute mountain sickness symptoms come in handy to save lives thousands of climbers every year on the summit.

2. Regular Monitoring of climbers’ health:  

The guides check the oxygen levels of each hiker daily in the morning before they start their climb. What is dangerous about altitude sickness is that it can get quite serious, very quickly. Daily monitoring of health is necessary to avoid serious health consequences.

3. Well Trained for Rescue & Evacuation

Although many tour operators rely on the National Park Service to evacuate their climbers but having a trained guide who is capable of assisting you in rescue and evacuation is a great boon. Serac Adventure’s guides are well trained to handle such emergencies and help to evacuate the climbers who fall sick.

4. The Skills of Leadership

Many unforeseen circumstances can prevail on the mountain and only a true leader can handle such situations and stay calm in times of crisis. Every second on the mountain matters a person could lose his life even in fractions of a second so having the right guide who takes quick decisions will help you survive and succeed on the mountain.
