Tanzania Classic Tours Safety Precautions

  • To protect clients from being exposed to the new coronavirus (COVID-19) while in the country, our personnel follows the Standard Operating Procedures.
  • Because they manage over 1,000 climbers every year, our guides are well-versed in preventing, identifying, and treating altitude sickness.
  • Our guides check your health twice daily with a pulse oximeter to assess your oxygen saturation and heart rate.
  • Our guides use the Lake Louise Scoring System (LLSS) to identify whether you have altitude sickness symptoms and how severe they are.
  • Our guides are Wilderness First Responder qualified (WFR). They have the equipment they need to make vital medical and evacuation choices on the spot.
  • On all climbs, our staff carries bottled oxygen and can immediately deliver it to climbers suffering from moderate to severe altitude sickness.
  • On northern routes, our team carries a foldable stretcher to help climbers who are unable to descend on their own. On some routes, park-provided wheeled stretchers are available.
  • Through Kilimanjaro Search and Rescue (SAR), a helicopter rescue operation, our crew has the power to initiate helicopter evacuation.
    Our employees are equipped with a first-aid package that can be used to treat minor scrapes, cuts, and blisters.

The precautions outlined above ensure that Tanzania Classic Tours guides and personnel are prepared to keep our climbers safe and can treat them if they become ill or wounded. Our top priority is your health and well-being.
