Electronic Gadgets

When preparing for your Kilimanjaro adventure, the choice of electronic devices can be crucial to enhance your experience and give you a sense of safety. From communication tools to navigation aids and devices for capturing breathtaking moments, these gadgets could be useful when navigating the challenging terrain of Africa's highest peak:

MOBILE PHONE

A mobile phone with a local SIM card can be invaluable for communication with guides, fellow trekkers and emergency services. GPS-enabled apps can help track your progress and ensure you stay on the designated trails.

PORTABLE CHRAGER

A portable charger or power bank is essential to keep your electronic devices charged throughout the trek, as power outlets may not be readily available.

HEADLAMP OR FLASHLIGHT

A reliable headlamp or flashlight with extra batteries is vital for nighttime excursions, navigating camp areas and summiting in the early hours.

CAMERA

Kilimanjaro offers breathtaking views, so don't forget your camera or smartphone to capture those memorable moments. Consider a rugged, waterproof camera or a protective case to shield your equipment from the elements.

SOLAR CHARGER

For longer treks, a solar charger can harness the abundant African sunshine to recharge your devices, reducing the need for extra batteries.

FITNESS TRACKER OR GPS WATCH

These devices can help monitor your heart rate, altitude and distance covered during the trek, providing valuable data for both safety and personal achievement.

SATELLITE PHONE

For remote or longer expeditions, a satellite phone can be a lifeline in emergencies, providing a direct line to rescue services.

POWER ADAPTER

If your gadgets have non-standard charging cables, consider carrying a universal power adapter to ensure compatibility.

ENTERTAINMENT

Long evenings in camp might be more enjoyable with an e-reader or entertainment device loaded with books, movies or music.

WEATHERPROOF COVERS

Protect your gadgets from rain and dust by using weatherproof covers or dry bags.

“An amazing safari with family.”

We had a very good experience and were able to see the big five. Our guide Soloman/Souleymane was very good.

“Awesome experience made easy.”

Amazing trip, highly recommended. Ole was a fantastic safari guide, and even though we went when it "wasn't so good" because of the long rains, we still saw many of the animals Mikumi had to offer.

“What an Experience!”

We had our 5 days/4 nights safari with Fahamu Safaris in January 2023, starting from Arusha and covering Tarangire (1 day), Lake Manyara (1 day), Serengeti (2 days), and Ngorogoro Crater National Park. We had a great experience.

“One of the best experiences of my life! Memories forever!”

My family and I went on a four day safari with Fahamu Safari and had the best time of our lives. We really experienced memories for a lifetime. This was due to the fact that we had the best guide and driver we could ever hope for.
