Are you planning to climb Mt. Meru and Kilimanjaro independently without a licensed tour company? You cannot climb Kilimanjaro without the organisation of a licensed company. There are strict rules regarding guides, porters and the weight limit of the luggage. You are, for example, not allowed to carry more than 15kg. Guides are mandatory for every trek up Mt. Meru and Kilimanjaro. On Mt. Meru, there are armed rangers to protect you from the mountain’s abundant wildlife (including buffalo, leopards, and baboons). For both Mt. Meru and Kilimanjaro, you will have guides and porters to carry your supplies, as you cannot climb Mt. Meru and Kilimanjaro independently.
On your trek/climb, you will be in safe hands following the guidelines from the guides.
