absolutely the best, our guide Eli is the best of the best
After coming back from the safari for a month, my heart still stays in Serengeti. The best part of the trip was (of course) the animals, but what made all the incredible sightings possible, was our wonderful wonderful guide Eli. I can't say enough good words about Eli, he is knowledgeable, he is dedicated, he is hardworking, he is all the good words you might find describing other wonderful guides as well, but he is more, and better. He found the perfect spots (and timing) to see the crossing (yes, we were able to saw it multiple times, and all at the most ideal locations, from different angels each time), he found us the communal den of spotted hyena, the sleeping lion cubs, the predating cheetah, the leopard mother and cub at eating scene, the whole lion pride, and so much more. Words just fall short. I will attach some photos after I submit the review (I'm still in the photo editing process, so this is definitely not all). I'm already planning to come back during the wet season again for the cubs and a greener background.
The receptionist Mary is also great, she was the one that responded to my initial email with such enthusiasm and careful plannings with all of my requests in mind (not just some template used over and over again), and I am so happy with the itinerary that she helped me putting together. Mary made my initial booking process pleasant and smooth, while Eli wonderfully delivered all the plans and expectations ( and exceed the expectation much much more).
I would def recommend this tour operator and our guide Eli to any close friends, or anyone who is into wildlife viewing and photography.

An unforgettable experience with Kilimanjaro adventure safari club!
Our group of twelve booked a seven-day safari with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club, and it was nothing short of amazing from start to finish. Organizing a group our size can be challenging, but the team was incredibly accommodating, patient, and flexible with all our needs. This made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable for everyone.
A special shoutout to Mariam, who went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of during our booking. From coordinating logistics to ensuring everything was accounted for. She was responsive, kind, and always helpful.
Our guides, Eli and Denis, were also great throughout then seven day trip. Their professionalism, knowledge of the parks and wildlife, and enthusiasm made every game drive exciting. They had an amazing ability to spot animals, share insights, and keep the group engaged.
The accommodation and food throughout the safari exceeded expectations. Each lodge and camp was comfortable, and offered great hospitality and delicious meals.
Overall, I couldn’t recommend Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club enough. The value for the experience was amazing. The combination of outstanding service, friendly staff, and unforgettable experiences made this a trip of a lifetime. Thank you to Mariam, Eli, Denis, the owner, Aenea, and the whole team for making it so special!

Impeccable in every way
I booked this a year ago. From the very first contact, Prince informed, answered promptly, arranged and explained. This approach gained my custom. Best decision! We did a 7 day trip through Tarangire, central and northern Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Manyara. The locations were diverse with different habitats and ecosystems and topography. Transfers etc were great and we were met by our guide, Langeni, after a good night at Gold Crest hotel in Arusha.
During our epic journey we stayed at Farm of Dreams, Karatu. Then on to Signature Serengeti Luxury Migration at Central Serengeti, then onto Baobab Luxury Migration camp in N Serengeti for two nights. Back to Sibature and then on to Farm of Dreams before Airport Planet Lodge for two days of spa, pool and rest. Flying home tonight.
What to say? Well...here goes...the accomodation was superb. The bush camps were thrilling. The food...huge brekkies, good hamper lunches on the long drives in the Parks and very tasty buffets in the evenings. We ate hugely!
The jeep was spacious with binos and water. We added beers and sodas amd Amarulla and Pringles!
We bounced our way over 1314 km in total.
We saw 67 lions, 9 cheetah. A full cheetah kill, 4 leopards and 5 rhinos. The big 5! Ticked. ( plenty buffalo and literally hundreds of ellies. ). Probably 300 000 wildebeest, and everything from two pythons to an African Crowned Eagle munching on a monkey it killed. We got luckier than most abd even saw a crossing at the Mara which a lot missed. Unbeatable game viewing.
All the lodges were great. Huuuge beds, drinking water and great grub. The bush camps were extra special. Signature outshone all the others. Shout out to the beautiful, helpful Dorcas at Baobab and amazing Bonus- camp manager at Signature. Every team member at every lodge was polite and chatty and really well in sync with customer service.
My one gripe was that Baobab hadno hot shower early morning and we had to specifically request pails of v hot water to bucket bath.
However, they kinda made up for it with a ten minute sing and dance celebration of my gf's bday when every single staff member- yes, all of them!- conga'd through the dining room and presented a cake to her. Wonderful!.
This has been the trip of a lifetime and i gave safari'd hugely over 35 years.
However, my final words have to be about Langeni. A gentleman. A devoted dad. A conversationalist. We talked about everything from food to religion to wildlife. We shared joy at unique sightings and fed off each others enthusiasm. A pro driver and guide. A great spotter. A totally lovely man. We left him as we would leave a family member...with sadness.
I cannot fault this trip..we leave this hotel in 4 hours for 18 hours or more back to London. It all worked. It was perfect. Bravo Prince, the big boss who bothered to come and meet us on day 1 and to all their team. I left a phone charger and cable in Serengeti. They diverted a driver to pick it up and i retrieved it near Arusha. Nothing was too much.
This trip was just perfect. Asante Sana to you all. Eli and Priscilla

Seven days private tour - Best experience
The seven day midrange private tour was an amezing adventure in Tanzania’s top national parks. Mary from the Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club prepared our tour seamlessly and was all the time in contact with us until we were fully satisfied. Tarangire. Serengeti (North and Central), Ngorogoro protected area and Manyara were places that we all dream to visit at list once. Now, I belive we could easily decide to come agan.
Our guide Gerson gave us many information about animal lives and nature in parks. He is real professional who made our adventure even better then we expected.
At the end, all lodges and camps were fantastic with great food and phenomenal people who work there.
Thank you Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club team.

Excellent safari with great guide
We had a wonderful time in Tanzania with Kilimanjaro Safari Club. From being picked up at the airport to our well planned itinerary through the different parks, we had an amazing time! We can 100% recommend booking with Kilimanjaro Safari Club (special thanks to our guide, Gaspar). Our accomodations were very clean, comfortable and had excellent cuisines.

One of the best trips of our lives
One of the best trips of our lives
Just a few days ago, we returned from an unforgettable, unique, nearly two-week journey to Tanzania. We booked the first part (Safari week) with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club. From the initial inquiry in March to the drop-off at Arusha airport after the safari week in September, we felt in the best hands and perfectly cared for throughout. During the planning phase, the team—especially Mary—showed maximum flexibility regarding arrival and departure dates, allowing us to tailor the trip to available flights. The choice of accommodation was completely satisfying. Payment and airport transfers went smoothly. A big thank you again to the team!
What truly made our trip a highlight was our guide, John Daniel Msemo. His experience and pleasant personality were such a great match that we can honestly say we parted as friends after the trip. He guided us from Arusha through Tarangire National Park to the northern Serengeti. After three nights in the Serengeti, we returned via the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park back to Arusha.
What can we say? John made every single day a highlight. Of course, we were lucky, but above all, it was John’s extensive experience that enabled us to witness the great river crossing of tens of thousands of wildebeest at the Mara River and so much more: a lioness hunting a baboon, the “Big Five,” a large herd of galloping zebras, antelopes, grazing giraffes, lunch near hippos, sightings of leopards and cheetahs, lions in all kinds of groupings, and funny warthogs…
We learned so much from John (not just the difference between baboons and monkeys, or leopards and cheetahs). He made the days so varied that even the sometimes long drives were no issue—there was always something to discover. Also worth mentioning is his respectful approach to wildlife and nature. His humor and overall friendly manner will be missed. We felt completely safe at all times.
Even though a safari trip is a significant financial investment, we can only say: it was worth every cent! ASANTE!!!

Amazing experience
We had the chance to spend 5 days in the Tanzanian national parks with Kilimanjaro Trekk and honestly, it couldn’t have been better. From the very first contact everything was smooth and professional. Maria helped us organize the trip and immediately understood what we wanted (something we didn’t feel with some bigger agencies we had spoken to before).
The whole team was incredibly professional but at the same time warm, kind, and full of that natural Tanzanian friendliness that makes you feel at home right away. Everything was perfectly arranged, from the itinerary to the places where we stayed – super well selected and organized.
And then there’s Denis… what can I say? He’s simply the best guide we could have asked for. Professional, funny, always kind and extremely knowledgeable. He knew everything about the animals, their behaviors and movements, and you could really see his deep respect for them and for the rules of the park. I loved that he even reminded other guides about what not to do when they weren’t respecting the rules. With him we always felt safe, we learned so much, and we enjoyed every single moment.
Traveling Tanzania with Kilimanjaro Trekk was an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to discover this amazing country with people who really care about what they do.

Africa at its Best
The most amazing holiday ever. Prince was amazing , he booked everything so meticulously well. Denis was an exceptional guide, so knowledgeable and interesting. And to be met by the owner of the company on arrival just shows how they all go the extra mile.
Thanks for the best holiday ever…… Kilimanjaro Trek, you rock 👊🙏

Great Guide and a Truly Memorable Safari Trip
We had an unforgettable 7-day safari experience, and a big part of what made it so special was our incredible guide, Gerson. He is simply amazing—professional, knowledgeable, and always focused on giving us the best possible experience. Gerson has a sharp eye for spotting wildlife, drives smoothly and safely across all terrains, and shares rich stories not just about animals, but also about the landscapes and cultures we traveled through. By the end of the trip, it truly felt like we were on an adventure with a friend!
Mariam, our main contact for planning, was responsive and thoughtful. She suggested smart adjustments to our itinerary that reduced long transfers and gave us more time for game drives, making the experience even more enjoyable.
Every lodge and hotel was booked exactly as requested. We deeply appreciate everyone who made this journey possible—and we’re already dreaming about our next safari!
