MOSHI, Tanzania, October 22, 2024 (VSNewsNetwork.com) – Altezza Travel has been awarded the titles of Tanzania’s Leading Tour Operator and Tanzania’s Leading Destination Management Company at the 2024 World Travel Awards. The World Travel Awards, established in 1993, recognize excellence across the global travel and tourism industry, honoring companies, destinations, and organizations that deliver outstanding service.
In addition to the company’s recognition, Mt. Kilimanjaro, a major destination for Altezza Travel, was named "Africa’s Leading Tourism Attraction," underscoring its appeal as a top destination in Africa.
According to the company, one reason for its success is its leadership in organizing treks to Kilimanjaro. In 2024, Altezza guided over 5,000 people to the summit, accounting for 15% of all successful climbs on the mountain. The company has experienced an annual growth rate of 20%, supported by thousands of positive reviews on platforms like TripAdvisor and Trustpilot.
Altezza Travel is also known for its emphasis on safety and expertise. The company’s guides receive extensive training, and Altezza has made significant investments in high-quality equipment, such as custom-designed tents. The company pays some of the highest wages in the region to attract skilled staff. In 2023, the company’s reputation for expertise earned its guides an invitation to participate in a high-profile expedition in Nepal, making them the first Tanzanian guides to take part in such an event.
Altezza Travel is also involved in social responsibility initiatives. Following the wildfires in Kilimanjaro National Park in 2020 and 2022, Altezza assisted in firefighting efforts and provided equipment to the park. The company is also engaged in conservation and reforestation projects and supports local communities through various programs.
