Medical Flights and MedEvac Mount Kilimanjaro
At 19,341 feet (5,895 meters), Mount Kilimanjaro in Kilimanjaro National Park, Tanzania, is the highest mountain in Africa and the tallest freestanding mountain in the world. Roughly 35,000 climbers from around the world attempt to summit Kilimanjaro every year, but only about two-thirds make it, and those that don’t typically suffer altitude sickness or other health problems.

Air Ambulance Worldwide is uniquely qualified to transport you safely and efficiently to an appropriate medical facility in the U.S. or around the world.
