No vaccinations are required by the Tanzanian health department. However, Tanzania is a yellow fever region and thus we advise that you get yourself vaccinated for this. In general we also recommend that you have all other shots such as Tetanus, Diphtheria, Polio and Hepatitis A & B up to date. Malaria is present in Tanzania but there are no mosquitoes at high altitude. It is your own choice if you wish to take any precautionary medication, but we suggest that you consult a physician on the prescription which might be right for you.

Children under the age of 10 years are allowed to climb up to Shira camp ( 3845 M),but above 10 years can climb up to the top (Uhuru peak). But due to the fact that children are vulnerable to mountain sickness we recommend children above the age of 14 years. For old people (above 60 years) we recommend them to do medical check-up before.
