The tour operator, namely Latipher, was communicative and clear, responsive and flexible with the it

5/5

Great communication from the tour operator Latipher from the outset, then from the driver- guide after that. He was on time and drove safely (the only storey was that he seemed very tired by day 3 so we were talking to him a lot to help him keep awake - it's a LOT of long hours of driving). We always knew the day's plan, were never left not knowing what war going on, treated like valuable customers. The camping and tour in general was value for money but I traded one night in a big standard tent for a night in a mud- range luxury Lodge and was disappointed - the room was amazing but the Lodge had no views of the crater and we only had a late dinner and early breakfast there, whereas in the budget campsite we spent 3 meal times. It felt a bit short- changed and a huge amount of extra money for not that much extra. I wish I had stuck with the camping (except please bring ear plugs because some other campers in the tent near us were talking loudly and with offensive language until gone 11pm when most people were getting up at 5 or 6am the following day. )
Very reliable from the first communication and a great tour. Would definitely recommend.

Great Machame Climb with perfect and experienced team

5/5

We hab a great one time in life experience with Moraka Safari. The 7 day climb was perfectly organized, we had a wonderful crew with great, friendly and helpful porters, two very experienced guides and a fife star cook with us.
Communication was always ideal, quick and constructive suggestions and answers before the climb and during the climb.
The guides always acted very prudent, they explained a lot, they organized every day according to our needs and interests, so we all four in the group succeeded and reached healthy and extremely happy and proud the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro.
Bib big thanks to Latipher, Hasan and Sunday for this outstanding experience, you were all just perfect!
Thank you again, Thomas

Perfect planning and CS skills.

5/5

Latipher coordinated all the details for my trip, from summit Kili with my bike, to go around kili on a 360 bike lap, to visit the tribes and the full safari experience, considering transportation and perfect timing from each location.

She coordinated everything, transportation, food, schedule, always procuring the best experiences possible. She can work with you budget and offer different options.

While I was in the tour, I saw many people who had hired other companies, struggling with lack /misleading information, I always felt confident because I knew my tour was reliable, and they were available 24/7 for anything I might needed.

Excellent and helpful

5/5

Hi, my name is Stephen and a few days ago I undertook both a safari and a Kilimanjaro climb with Moraka Safari. Moraka arrange everything for me, including accommodation in Arusha and Moshi before between and after each part of the trip, and drivers foreach part, including pick up and drop off at the airport.
The safari was a five-day series of trips into the Serengeti and other national parks, including Ngorongoro crater, Lake Manyara and involved both Lodges and camping overnight. We even visited a Maasai village! A varied group of different people were teamed together for each part, lead by a specific guide for each national park. We were safely but closely shown almost all imaginable animals (Giraffe, Lions, Cheetahs, Elephants, Zebra, Wildebeast, Monkeys, Baboons, Hippos , birds of many types etc) in their natural setting, including around the campsites. There were no lions at the campsite... or were there! There were definitely some rustling of tents, and buffalo were seen by one of the team in night.
Overall, the safari was excellent, well organised and expertly run by experienced guides. I have no hesitation in recommending Moraka Safari and this tour.
But wait, there’s more.
Moraka Safari also organised the climb for me in a small group, each client with a guide and a team including a few porters and a cook. My guide was Emannuel, who forged a lasting friendship with me in his attempt to keep me moving on this gruelling 5 day climb on the Marangu route. Alas, I wasn’t fit enough to finish, only reaching the Horombo hut – only 2000m elevation gain in 2 days!
I will be back for another try after some targeted fitness training (this time I know what I’m up against) over the next 12 months and I will certainly be asking Moraka Safaris to arrange it for me!
