The best service best Team Kiliamanjaro and safari !
My 5-day safari and 7-day Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route expedition in February were nothing short of extraordinary.
The safari experience was amazing. The guides were excellent very knowledgeable, friendly, and always making sure we had the best sightings. The vehicle was comfortable and well maintained, and the accommodations were also excellent throughout the trip. We saw an incredible number of animals, including the Big Five, and even witnessed the migration in Ndutu, which was truly unforgettable.
The Kilimanjaro climb exceeded all my expectations. From arrival to the summit, everything was perfectly organized. The Nafika team, including the mountain guides and the entire crew, were professional, supportive, and genuinely cared about our success and comfort.
Reaching the Roof of Africa was an incredible achievement, but what made the journey truly special was the people and the seamless organization behind it all.
This entire experience—from safari to summit—is something I will remember for the rest of my life.

Thanks for making my dream come true!
It's crucial to have someone by your side the entire way! We stumbled upon Nafika Tour by accident. We knew we wanted to climb with them during our initial call because the leader's sincere smile never left his face. And we were right on track. They were in touch during our preparations, helping us choose gear and answering all our questions. The entire trip, his team surrounded us with care, comfort, and a positive energy. We weren't even expecting such service – delicious food aplenty, a one-room tent, and if lunchtime was delayed, a table and chairs were set up with a hot lunch. Every day, the cook offered a selection of dishes. A doctor checked us in the morning. The entire team motivated us every minute! We always had hot water for washing, and our clothes were dried. And the freshener in the tent with a toilet was top-notch! They've truly thought of everything down to the last detail; all you have to do is take it all in and climb. Just before the summit, I had an uncontrollable meltdown, but Mashake and Efata (our guides) helped me calm down and stay focused. I definitely recommend Nafika Tour and am grateful to them from the bottom of my heart! Thanks to them, we summited and left with a huge amount of emotions!

A Trustworthy Tour Experience You Can Take On with Confidence — Even for Your First Time
I wholeheartedly recommend NAFIKA TOUR.
I had an absolutely incredible experience over the course of six days.
From the very beginning, I felt completely safe and well taken care of. The team was not only highly professional, but also warm and friendly, which made the entire journey truly comfortable and enjoyable.
I was especially impressed by the detailed daily briefings and the careful monitoring of oxygen levels—every aspect of the support was thoughtful and reassuring.
Thanks to this, I was able to complete all six days without any health issues.
Above all, I was deeply moved by the team’s strong sense of responsibility and professionalism—their commitment to making sure every climber reaches the summit was truly remarkable.
I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to all the porters, the cooks who prepared our meals, and every member of the team.
In particular, I am sincerely grateful to MAX, my guide, and to NAFIKA TOUR for accommodating my schedule on short notice.
Although I ended up joining the tour alone unexpectedly, I was warmly welcomed and guided all the way to a successful summit. I truly appreciate everything you have done for me.
I feel very fortunate to have come across such an amazing tour company.
Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience.

Exceptional Service and a Successful Summit with Nafika Tours
We recently completed a Kilimanjaro climb and a 5-day safari with Nafika Tours, and the experience was flawless. As novice trekkers, we opted for a private trek with 2 guides, 1 chef, 7 porters, and a private toilet—a setup that felt incredibly premium compared to other groups we encountered.
The attention to detail was impressive: our porters set up daily snack stops with full tables and chairs, and the food (soup, mains, and fresh fruit) was consistently great. Our guides, Benson and Lordgard, were true professionals. They monitored our oxygen levels twice daily, provided clear briefings, and gave us the mental strength needed for the summit night. Having a dedicated porter join us for the summit with hot drinks and snacks made a massive difference.
Post-climb, we stayed at Tulivu Retreat in Moshi. The gardens and pools are beautiful, and the "After-Kili" spa treatment is a must-move for recovery! Our safari was equally well-managed in a private Land Cruiser stocked with cold drinks. Our guide was an expert tracker; we saw the Big Five and even a rare white giraffe. Highly recommend Nafika for a seamless Tanzania experience!

Great experience
We make a 2 day Safari tour with Nafika.
It was a really good and interesting experience.
We visit 2 national parks Ngorongoro and Tarangire.
Both parks are beautiful. We had the opportunity to see the 5 five.
The Guide Steven all the time he was very professional, helpful, friendly, given very interesting information about animals and culture.
The food was very good. The lodge was very nice and comfortable.
I recommend Nafika 100‰ to do Safari's in Tanzania.
Asante sana Nafika, Steven and Elias for this great experience.

The best Kilimanjaro climb and Tanzania Safari
We had the most wonderful experience on our Kilimanjaro trek with Nafika Tours. From the very beginning of the planning stage to our final descent, everything was perfectly taken care of, making the entire process easy and stress-free.
Our guides, Aloyce, Efata, and Anold, were outstanding professional, knowledgeable, and very experienced. Abu the chef and the entire logistics team looked after us incredibly well. Every day we were welcomed with warm smiles, delicious food, and genuine care.
Despite the complexity of our group ranging in age from 10 to 62 years old the team managed everything smoothly, and every single one of us successfully reached the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. It truly was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, filled with unforgettable memories.
Our families back home really appreciated the daily updates and photos, which made them feel connected to our journey and created a beautiful record of our adventure.
After the climb, we also enjoyed a 5-day safari with Nafika Tours, which was equally fantastic. Our safari guide was very professional, and we saw an incredible number of animals. The accommodations were excellent, the food was delicious, and the safari vehicle was always clean and very comfortable.
We highly recommend Nafika Tours for both Kilimanjaro treks and safaris. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Perfect!
This was a life-changing experience. We organized the trip ourselves, and after a lot of research, we decided on Nafika Agency — and honestly, we couldn’t have made a better choice.
These people took our adventure to a whole new level. We have never, anywhere, felt that much care and kindness. There are no words to truly describe how professional, precise, and dedicated they are to their work.
This is the strongest recommendation we could ever give for any service — Nafika truly earned it. From the owner, to the guides, to the porters — everyone was outstanding.
Thank you once again for the unforgettable moments.
Greetings from Montenegro!

Life-Changing Experience! Nafika Tours is the Gold Standard for Kilimanjaro
If you are planning to climb Kilimanjaro, look no further than Nafika Tours. My wife and I just completed the 7-day Lemosho route, and we can say with 100% certainty that we wouldn’t have reached Uhuru Peak without this incredible team.
1. Seamless Planning & Professionalism
From our very first inquiry, Elias was a standout. As first-time high-altitude climbers, we had a million questions. Elias was incredibly responsive, professional, and prompt. He provided deep insights and honest advice that helped us feel prepared and confident long before we stepped foot in Tanzania.
2. A Team That Feels Like Family
The crew Nafika assembled was world-class. Our guides, Innocent and Leorgad, were professional, encouraging, and highly skilled. Chef Priver is a wizard in the mountain kitchen—we genuinely loved every single meal he prepared.
What truly sets Nafika apart, however, is their heart. On our descent from the summit, my wife began feeling unwell. Without a second thought, the entire team mobilized. The porters and guides actually walked almost halfway back up the mountain to assist in carrying her down safely. Their care and dedication were move-than-heroic.
3. Going Above and Beyond (The Luggage Save!)
Our checked luggage (containing essential gear like sleeping bags and duffles) was delayed on arrival. Nafika could have easily made extra profit by renting us their gear, but they chose integrity over profit. The team went to the airport extremely early on the second day, retrieved our bags, and rushed them to the Lemosho gate just in time for our climb. That level of service is rare and deeply appreciated.
4. Perfect Logistics
Beyond the mountain, every detail was handled. The transport was punctual and the lodges arranged for before and after the climb were high-quality, comfortable, and very convenient.
Nafika Tours doesn’t just "organize treks"—they take care of you like family. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to summit the Roof of Africa. Thank you, Elias, Innocent, Leorgad, Priver, and the entire porter crew for making our dream a reality!

Beyond Expectations - A Remarkable Lemosho Route Climb
I joined the 7-Day Lemosho Route this December as a solo climber, alongside seven other guests, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations in every way.
Our lead guide, Innocent, along with assistant guides Efatha, Aloyce, and Philberth, were outstanding. From day one, the team was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring, always ensuring that everyone felt supported and comfortable. Summit day was a serious challenge, but Efatha and Jacob kept our spirits up by singing through the quiet night, something we noticed many other groups did not have, and it made a real difference.
A heartfelt thank-you to Priver for consistently preparing warm, nourishing meals that kept us energized; to Jackson and Abel for their thoughtful service, always bringing hot tea to our tents in the mornings; to Noel and Jacob for their steady support on the ascent; to Rizik and Said for expertly selecting our campsites; and to Maxmillian and Osward for maintaining the toilets. Above all, immense appreciation to every porter on the crew, whose hard work and constant smiles never went unnoticed.
Nafika Tours is absolutely the way to go if you want an unforgettable Kilimanjaro experience with an exceptional, dedicated team. Asante sana!

Great personal and local experience
A truly outstanding experience!
This was an incredibly beautiful and authentic local experience. The porters were exceptionally friendly and worked unbelievably hard—truly nothing was too much to ask. They did everything with a smile and made sure we lacked nothing.
Choosing a private tour made the experience even more unique and personal. During the hike, we were treated to luxurious breaks with chairs and a small table, along with warm drinks such as tea, coffee, and hot chocolate—an unexpected luxury along the way.
The chef even came to speak with us personally to discuss our own customized menu, which made the service feel extra special. We had two highly capable guides, with one guide per person, ensuring maximum guidance, safety, and comfort.
The organization was also flawless: reliable and punctual transfers to and from the hotel, the airport, and the starting point of the hike. What stood out most was the strong group spirit—clearly a team that knows each other well, can rely on one another, and does their work with visible joy and pride.
Highly recommended and an experience we will cherish for a long time to come!
