Enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and professional!
5/5

My brother and I had the great opportunity of joining the Zanzi Trekking team on the 6-day Lemosha hike up Mt. Kilimanjaro. We were thoroughly impressed by professionalism and knowledge right from the beginning!

The lead guide Isack met us the day before the hike to ensure we had all of the necessary gear for a successful trek. We went through an equipment checklist, and anything that was missing we were able to rent. It was great to have open conversations with Isack, and we didn't feel pressured into renting anything that wasn't absolutely necessary for the trip.

During the hike, Isack and Nixon (assistant guide) were extremely personable and we had a lot of fun conversations! They also performed a great assessement of our hiking ability and adjusted the pace accordingly. The 6 day hike was perfect, as the days were not too long or too short (there would have been some half days if we did the 8 day given our pace).

The crew we hiked with was phenomenal and tents were set up on our arrival to the camps. The food was well prepared and timely (cuddos to the Chef)!

The guides monitored our well being each morning and evening to ensure we were acclimating appropriately. The summit day was certainly challenging and cold compared to the first 5 days, yet we made it to the peak just in time for the sunrise! What a spectacular view- we were far above the clouds and there were unique ice formations ans glaciers nearby-it was like nothing like I've ever seen before!! Well worth the hike and very rewarding.

Our last few days Isack showed us around Arusha and took us to Materuni Waterfall. Highly recommend the waterfall as the environment is far different than what we had seen during the hike or our earlier safari (more of a jungle). Lastly, we truly enjoyed the City tour. This was surprisingly one of the coolest days of our ~3 week trip!! It was so cool being able to explore the local shops, markets, and stores without seeing tourists around. We spent time with Isack during the day and Nixon im the evening and got a first hand experience of what day-to-day life looked like in the City. It was very interesting to see the cultural differences from Michigan where we are from.

Overall, we could not have asked for a better tour!! Without the experience and knowledge of the guides, we wouldn't have made it to the peak. Also the enthusiasm and kindness of the entire team was greatly appreciated. Highly highly recommend Zanzi Trekking if you plan on hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro

The same that other but with the best price
5/5

We really enjoyed the safari, which included visiting Gorongoro and the Serengeti. We searched online for the cheapest option and found Zanzi Tours. On the tour, we shared a 4x4 with five other people from different agencies, and they paid much more than us for the same services. Highly recommended!

Absolutely fantastic experience with Charles, Nestor, Antidius and team
5/5

The trip with Zanzi up to the summit of Kilimanjaro was absolutely incredible. The guide team of Charles, Nestor and Antidius were phenomenal in both the serious matter of looking after us on the trek and at altitude, but also filling us with positive vibes, boosting morale and throughout enjoying chatting about all matter of things and dancing to the tunes. The chef of the team was fantastic and kept us fuelled through the full week with excellent breakfasts, lunches and dinners that were tasty and different every day. The porter team were fantastic treating us like a big family and greeting us with huge smiles and fist bumps every day and looking after us brilliantly for the week. And a special shout out to the team of summit porters who joined the guide team to carry our bags, watch out for us and give us all important boosts to morale on the way to reaching the summit.

All in all I would absolutely recommend Zanzi to anybody wanting to climb Kilimanjaro, and especially the team of Charles, Nestor and Antidius who were simply fantastic!!!

Once in a lifetime experience
5/5

Highly recommend Zanzi Trekking & Safari for hiking Mount Kilimanjaro. We did the 7 Day Lemosho route with Guide Charles and Assistant Guides Nestor and Antidius, who looked after the group well and made sure everyone had a safe and enjoyable time. The guides adjusted the pace according to how the group was going so it was the perfect balance between efficient and manageable. Communication was also very clear, and the guides let us know the plan for the day ahead each night. Food prepared by chef Basili was also enjoyable - simple and provided the energy needed for the day ahead. On summit night, the guides carried our backpacks which we didn’t expect but was much needed and Im not sure we could have made it there otherwise. Overall - an amazing experience! Thank you Zanzi!!

Amazing Experience, highly recommend Zanzi with Charles, Nestor amd Antidius
5/5

We had a great time doing the 7 day Lemosho route with Zanzi! Food was amazing, the porters all really friendly and helpful. Our guides Charles, Nestor and Antidius were very knowledgeable and looked after us really well. We'd looked at quite a few companies at different price ranges before going with Zanzi, definitely worth it, from what we could see the more expensive tour operators offered a very similar experience to what we had. Can't recommend Zanzi enough, was an amazing experience!
