About Altezza About Altezza
On February 24, 2025, at Kuringe Social Hall in Moshi, the Tanzania Revenue Authority celebrated Taxpayer Appreciation Day. Altezza Travel was invited and awarded a certificate recognizing us as the largest taxpayer in the Kilimanjaro region.

It took us ten years to reach this milestone since welcoming our first client in 2014, and we see this achievement as validation of our ongoing mission to conduct business transparently and ethically. Along with our recent Travelife certification, UN Tourism membership, and recognition from the World Travel Awards, we feel reassured that we are on the right path.

As of 2025, Altezza Travel is the leading tour operator in Tanzania. We operate our own hotels and vehicle fleet, employ 260 staff across offices and hotels, and work with a dedicated mountain team of over 3,000 professionals.

We pay taxes exclusively in Tanzania

Altezza Travel is registered and operates exclusively within Tanzania. Every payment we receive goes directly to our Tanzanian accounts, and all taxes are paid locally.

Our commitment ensures maximum benefit to Tanzania, providing essential revenue for development projects and infrastructure improvements, such as schools, hospitals, and wildlife conservation.

Our taxes make Tanzania a better place

Travelers should be aware that by booking a tour with a local company like Altezza Travel, they significantly contribute to the local economy.

Transparency in financial operations is a fundamental principle at our company. We register and declare all sales appropriately, ensuring all required taxes are paid promptly. We believe every responsible business should operate this way.

In 2024 alone, Altezza Travel contributed over $1.2 million in taxes to Tanzania.

Looking ahead, we envision a Tanzania that attracts skilled professionals from around the world and inspires young locals to build their futures at home.

We work to contribute to this vision. 99% of our employees are based in Tanzania, and the minimum salary for our unskilled laborers is 2.5 times the regional average.

By choosing Altezza Travel, you book with a responsible, compliant local operator dedicated to Tanzania’s economy, community development, and conservation efforts.
