Crew Tipping
Tipping is a thing with the Kilimanjaro crew. While tipping should be a little more of an appreciation for a service well rendered, we know you might wonder why you’d be recommended to give approximately $100 above your ticket. We appreciate our crew dearly for the ground support they provide and value you as our esteemed client. Therefore, we take good care of our teams and do not require you to give anything once you pay the expedition ticket.
