Volunteer Kilimanjaro has carefully calculated program fees to reflect two commitments: providing local employees with fair wages, and offering participants a high quality, low-cost volunteer tourism experience. You will notice that our fees are significantly lower than other large volunteer tourism companies; we are able to keep our fees low because we base our operations locally. Please note that costs are approximate, and vary based on the number of volunteers traveling together and the length of time the group wishes to volunteer. Please contact us at volunteerkilimanjaro@gmail.com with your group details for an exact quote.
