Before setting off for the mountain, you will need to obtain a permit. There are numerous tour companies in Arusha and Moshi * that can arrange this on your behalf. You can contact them directly on arrival in Tanzania, or you can go through a travel agent at home. The tour company will arrange a guide and porters on your behalf. They can often arrange trips at very short notice, but if you want to be sure of a place it is better to book in advance. There are strict limits on the number of people allowed on the mountain at any one time.
* Arusha is a small, rather delightful city in northern Tanzania. Moshi is the nearest town to Kilimanjaro.
One good place to start is with REI Adventures:

Good Luck
P.S. Spell it: Kilimanjaro
