Nuhu might be the most knowledgeable, sweetest and charismatic person I have ever met!
Wow, just wow! There just aren’t enough superlatives to use about Nuhu. This man should be an idol for everyone on planet earth. I have never met such a knowledgeable, sweet and charismatic person. He answer every single question, hard or not, with ease. His English competence is the best we met during our whole stay in Africa. We could also feel his passion for wildlife pumping through his veins. It may sound like I am over exaggerating, but I really cannot empathise enough on how an amazing guide Nuhu is. The safari itself was also impeccable. We saw a whole bunch of animals, even a lot of the rarer ones. Although we saw all these animals, Nuhu was still the highlight of the trip. With his immense knowledge and understanding of the animal kingdom, combined with his outstanding storytelling ability, he kept the whole family of 5 entertained for the whole 13 hour safari. Nuhu should be given The Nobel Peace Prize for making me find peace with myself. WHAT A GUY! The visit to the Masai village was also both really fun and interesting for the whole family. The rest of the stay was ok. Only 1 of 3 bathrooms were functional. The bedrooms were nice. The food was ok. The staff were friendly, but English abilities varied a lot. Even though the rest of the stay was not as amazing as Nuhu, he made up for it. I recommend Camp Bastian to everyone, IF you have Nuhu as your guide.

Exceptional safari with an outstanding guide
We had an amazing safari with Kihindo Tours and Safaris and would highly recommend them.
The safari exceeded all our expectations. We saw an incredible number of lions, elephants and hippos, as well as many other animals, making it a truly unforgettable experience.
The only part of the trip that could have been better organized was the transfer from the ferry to the train after our arrival from Zanzibar. As no car had been arranged, we had to rush through the very busy streets of Dar es Salaam with our luggage to catch the train. It was a stressful experience, but fortunately it was the only hiccup during an otherwise seamless journey.
The highlight of our safari was undoubtedly our guide, Nuhu. His knowledge of the wildlife, the natural environment and the Mikumi park was simply outstanding. We challenged him with what must have been hundreds of questions throughout the trip, and he always had thoughtful, detailed and fascinating answers. Beyond his impressive knowledge, he generously shared his own experiences and perspectives on life in Tanzania. This gave us a much deeper understanding not only of the wildlife and ecosystems, but also of the people, culture and everyday life. Thanks to Nuhu, this became far more than a safari—it was a rich, holistic experience that taught us so much about both nature and the country. His passion, professionalism, and warm yet humble personality made this a journey we will never forget.
If you’re looking for a reliable tour operator with exceptional guides, we can wholeheartedly recommend Kihindo Tours and Safaris.

Highly recommend tour
This was one of the best tours I have been on! The day started with a pickup directly outside my Airbnb. The pickup was on time and it dropped me off at the train station with proper instructions which made it a 1000 times easier to navigate everything. After reaching Morogoro I had another pickup already waiting for me which took me to Mikumi National Park. There I met my guide Jackson who gave me the best safari ever! He put in his 100% to show me all the animals that he could. And I saw all of them super close like Elephants, Lions, Impala, Pumba, Giraffes, Zebras, Buffaloes, Wildebeest, Hippos and even a crocodile. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience. The lunch was buffet and it was very tasty. The ride back to morogoro train station was great too. After arriving at Dar es Salaam I already had a pickup waiting for me which dropped me off directly at my Airbnb. This was the most mind blowing and marvelous safari ever and the convenience and smoothness of everything just added a cherry on top! I would 100% recommend this safari!!!!!

Wonderful 2-day experience in Mikumi
I was annoyed with the tour operator when I had to cancel and rebook the trip at a higher price a couple of days ahead of the tour. However, aside from this misunderstanding, the communication with the operator was very good, and the value for money was very high even at the raised price. Especially the guide was fantastic! Asante sana!
