Why Quotes Vary — Key Price Factors

If you’re comparing quotes and wondering why prices differ, here are the main reasons:

  • Lemosho and Northern Circuit routes are longer and more expensive due to their high success rates.

  • Marangu is the only route with hut accommodation, typically cheaper but with lower summit success rates.

2. Duration of Climb

  • More days = higher cost, but better acclimatization and summit success.

3. Group vs. Private Trek

  • Group treks are more budget-friendly.

  • Private climbs offer more flexibility and personalization.

  • Cheaper quotes may cut corners—beware of hidden costs.

5. Inclusions

  • Flights, gear rental, tips, travel insurance, and pre/post-accommodation might not be included in all quotes.
