The Kilimanjaro Region At 5 895 meters, this is Africa's tallest peak and the world's highest free-standing mountain, located south of the equator in Tanzania (as it is not part of a mountain range). Huge permanent glaciers run down from the peak, and the mountain's sheer size dominates the surrounding landscape.

Omicron Travel Restrictions exist in a number of African countries. Tanzania is not one of these countries. Tranquil Kilimanjaro is one of the few tour companies in Tanzania doing safaris and climbing Kilimanjaro during the Coronavirus, Covid 19.

From Nairobi Airport (NBO), there are various flight options to Kilimanjaro Airport (JRO). We are constantly monitoring the situation and will update this page with the most up-to-date information. Contact us today if you want to climb Kilimanjaro and have the mountain and safari all to yourself! Read our Covid 19 update and where to get your PCR test in Tanzania The impact of Omicron and Covid-19 on Kilimanjaro climbs and African safaris So far, we know a little bit about the COVID-19 Omicron variant. Disease transmissibility and severity According to a Discovery Health study: The effectiveness of the Pfizer vaccination against infection was reduced to around 30% for the Omicron variation, compared to roughly 80% for the varieties preceding Omicron. However, in the cohort studied, COVID-19 provided 70% protection against hospital admission (down from 90% during the previous surge of delta in South Africa), demonstrating that the vaccination is still effective in keeping people out of hospitals. Nonetheless, none of us will be safe until we are all safe — the vaccine must be given to as many people as possible around the world. The risk of mutations and the continuation of the pandemic remain quite significant without vaccination equity. According to the World Health Organization, 41 countries have yet to vaccinate 10% of their population, while 98 countries have yet to reach the 40% milestone. Prevention All COVID-19 variations can cause serious illness or death, especially in the most fragile persons,
