Kwesa is a very ambitious company always looking for the best of their customers
We really enjoyed our unforgettable and affordable trip with Kwesa (Kilimanjaro and Safari). The whole team was very nice and friendly, always looking for our best. Our guide was always trying to give us the best chances to see many animals as close as possible. Communication in advance was very easy, the company is definitely trustworthy. Always felt safe and welcomed, almost became part of the family. Thanks a lot for the unforgettable experience!

Knowledgeable, friendly, kind, fun, capable, experienced, dedicated and professional.
We were picked up at the airport, our accommodations were comfortable and our food was good. The operator, hosts, guides and drivers couldn't do enough to make sure we had a great trip. The safari was like stepping into a David Attenborough film. We saw loads of wild animals so close we took the zoom lens off the camera. You could almost touch them.
Triple icing on the adventure of a lifetime were visiting Kilimanjaro Orphanage Centre, the side excursion to an Animal Sanctuary (where you could touch the animals) and the visit to the Chaga caves.
Special thanks to Edward and his amazing team for hosting a perfect African experience for us.

I give all the credit to Edward for our experience.
We traveled to Tanzania to hike Kilimanjaro with the amazing mountain guide Edward Safari, who provided my girlfriend and I with excellent assistance during the six-day ascent via the Machame route. We chose the six-day journey over the standard five-day one in order to have an extra day to acclimate. This decision paid off handsomely, as we both made it to the summit despite the challenging alpine weather and several episodes of altitude sickness. The final close meeting at the peak made the difficult trek up the mountain worthwhile. Edward and his team of porters and cook took great care of us. I give all the credit to Edward for our experience.

Excellent
KWESA deserves nothing less than five stars for providing my sister and I with the experience of a lifetime on our recent ascent of Kilimanjaro via the Marangu route. Planning: Teacher, Edward, was incredibly responsive and timely. He was gentle and gave us a detailed explanation of everything, reassuring us because this was our first time climbing a mountain of that size. The Real Trek: Excellent meals, portable restrooms, sanitizers, well-organized gear, and, most importantly, an incredible staff! Highlights: Reaching the top and taking in the breathtaking surroundings while ascending the mountain Amazing folks, we adore you all!

Our excursion to Kilimanjaro was made even more memorable by our successful summit.
Our excursion to Kilimanjaro was made even more memorable by our successful summit. We finally accomplished our lifelong goal of climbing Africa's highest peak with KWESA. Our fantastic crew consisted of seven porters, our guide Musa, and our cook Mushi. It was a remarkable accomplishment for us to reach the summit of Uhuru Peak after five days of hiking the Machame Trail through gorges and slopes. Without the help of this amazing staff, I have no doubt that we would not have succeeded.

Supportive beyond any expectations
Our daughter 18, is currently on Kilimanjaro about to summit and was with a smaller company linked to KWESA -due to little contact and report of her feeling isolated as the only climber in the group, and struggling with the cold, Edward at KWESA linked her in with one of his teams and sorted additional warm items, and reported to us multiple times through 2 days of progress. Absolutely incredible-I could not have asked for more support -even photos were sent to reassure all was well aswell as a medical report.
Thank you SO much -I would highly recommend this company -clearly very supportive and experienced.

Amazing time
I booked a 6 day climb of Kilimanjaro by the machame route and had an incredible time. It was my first time solo travelling and the whole team made me feel incredibly welcome. Tuliza was an absolutely incredible guide, helping me reach my goals - arrive at the top of the mountain first!! - and kept me smiling the whole trip. Masanja was the chef and every day the food was amazing - pancakes, pizza the lot. Also special thanks to Omary Juma the waiter who was incredibly funny and friendly. I was super nervous before booking but the whole team was amazing!! Thankyou Tuliza, Masanja, Omary and Kwesa tours

Amazing and personalized experience with Kwesa tours
My fiancee and I traveled to Tanzania during covid. We summitted Kilimanjaro and did a 6 day safari through Kwesa tours and had an amazing time from start to finish! Kwesa is an extremely professional family-operated company. Edward was especially responsive over Whatsapp while we were planning the trip. We did the Lemosho trek with Edward's brothers Joseph and Goodluck who made the entire experience very memorable. They even offered to carry our daypacks for us when we got tired, which definitely helped us make our way to the summit. We ended up summiting and coming down in just 6 days, so we added two days to our original 4-day safari, which Edward was able to swiftly organize. After coming down from the mountain, Edward took us out to a nice dinner in town with Joseph and Goodluck. We really felt like family! We did the Safari with Brighton and Felix, who were also excellent. Felix was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and Brighton was a very professional driver. The lodges we stayed at were very high-end and better than expected. Edward is very resourceful and will go above and beyond to make sure your needs are met. He even helped us organize a covid test in Zanzibar so we could fly back to the U.S. Overall, I would highly recommend Kwesa tours to anyone looking to explore Tanzania. They exceeded all expectations!!

KWESA IS THE BEST
My wife and I recently took the 7 days Northern Tanzania Classic Safari Tour with Goodluck of KWESA and he was exemplary. The hotel and lodges and food provided on tour were all nice and better than we expected. Goodluck let us spend more time following the migration in Serengeti. We saw all the animals in our wish list save for the wild dogs and took some great photos to keep the memories. We would recommend KWESA to all interested in exploring Tanzania.
