Great team, incredible adventure.
5/5

Our 3-Day Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Manyara was amazing, a life- changing experience. Tanzania is magical, with great parks to vizit numerous wildlife. We saw: lions, elephant, zebras, giraffe, buffalos, wildebeest, hippos, a lot of beautiful birds. Our safari guide was extraordinary, he knew so much about the local wildlife and had some fascinating stories. I recommend Nkollo Tours & Safaris, for a fascinating adventure.

Always quick and ready to support us
5/5

To plan this trip we went through some quotes before from companies we found on trip advisor and Nkollo Tours was definitely what seemed the best quality price wise. I mean when you choose a budget camping the experience I think will be about the same with everyone so what matters is the budget and the customer service and Allan did a great job with it. He was always answering all our concerns very quickly and finding us solutions where we had problems. Definitely his support throughout the trip was worth 5 stars.
For what concerns the Safari: it was a great experience, the driver/guide was very professional and skilled (he's been doing it for 7 years) and made us feel very safe even sleeping in tents in the middle of the park with no fences. The cook was very young and just came out of cooking training but he was also very skilled and made us a lot of different meals, never ate the same thing twice.
In conclusion I'd definitely recommend it. Everyone was accommodating and professional.

Want to do it again.
5/5

Hadn't really planned to participate in any safari, but wow what an experience. Allan at Nkollo tours and safari, arranged everything from hotel pickup in Zanzibar and overnight in Arusha and then the safari which lasted 2 days in the Serengeti and then 1 day in the Ngorongoro Crater. We got to see all the big 5, and much much more. Our driver guided us very well and was very knowledgeable about all the animals we saw. Accommodation in tents was also a big part of the stay and the cook delivered good meals throughout the trip. Would definitely do it again if I'm in the area again. Thank you so much for an incredible experience.

5/5

Jambo - I wanted to show my family the Heart of Africa and we received so much more! We loved every minute. Hotel Pick-up, flight and fantastic game drives in Nyerere NP left unforgettable memories. Highlight was a night safari with dinner in the park.
The guides did everything to show us the beauties of this unspoilt place on earth!
After many hours in the car searching for animals we finally even found a big group of simba! We will never forget these 3 days-only possible because of passionate people who love what they are doing and that can be felt. Asante sana for everything! Also to Safaribookings for the connection with Nkollo Tours!

Fantastic tour operator, very helpful and prompt response
5/5

We did two 1-day tours with Nkollo Tours and Safaris.
Materuni waterfalls, coffee tour & chemeka hot springs. Our guide Benson was amazing sharing with us lots of local knowledge and answering all our questions about Tanzania. We also learnt some Swahili from Benson. It was a very fun tour and would highly recommend!
Ngorongoro joint safari, we experienced a wide variety of animals throughout our safari. Our guide was very good and helped us with getting photos throughout the safari. It was an affordable and high quality safari.
They were on time both days and very prompt with their communication throughout the whole experience. Very good value for money and reliable. Thoroughly enjoyed our tours!

Was superb, I enjoyed my stay there
5/5

We sent requests to several operators and ended up with Nkollo Tours since Allan tailored it to what we requested. We arrived at the airport and we were picked up by our driver to the hotel in Arusha. After our arrival, we got a comprehensive briefing about what to expect during the safari. James was our guide for the 4 days and was very informative and fun to be with. He tried to make our experience unforgettable and amazing. The accommodations met our expectations and the whole trip went beyond what we expected. We luckily managed to see the big 5 animals from the parks we visited. For the 4 days, we saw so many animals, birds, plants, and insects. We had our phones and cameras fully charged since the safari jeep had charging ports and even binoculars to observe animals from a distance. The lodges had delicious meals with varieties. We visited a Masai Village which was so fascinating. The next day after our safari, Allan organized a day tour to Kilimanjaro before our evening flight. Benson was our guide, he was knowledgeable and fun to spend time with. The 40 minutes hike to Materuni Waterfall was beautiful. After the hike, went to the local village for coffee making. The coffee and local food lunch was also served at the village which was also good. Next, we went to the Kikuletwa Hot Springs, a relaxing way to finish the day. I truly recommend Nkollo Tours to anyone traveling in Tanzania. Asante sana.

Could not have been a better experience!
5/5

Booked my trip last minute and I can't believe how lucky I got. Very fast to respond, extremely helpful (even for things that I needed organised outside of the tour), and very professional. Pick up and drop off were seamless. Our safari driver (Josef) was absolutely incredible... he could drive (like a pro) and spot animals miles away at the same time... we were very lucky to have been able to see the big 5 (and more) and I know that it definitely had something to do with our guide and his sixth sense. The food was really good, our cook Simba was always ready with more food than we could possibly eat. Could not say enough good things. Do not hesitate to book!

Marvellous
5/5

With Nkollo tours, the service itself was an experience! Our trip started from Zanzibar whereby everything was very organised and we just had to “NOT WORRY” about anything!
We went to Nyerere national park for 2 days. There, everything exceeded our expectations by all means. The guides were extremely professional and made extra effort to make sure that we will see all possible kind of animals, they were very respectful, helpful, and experienced.
We were glad to spend such a memorable one of a kind wild experience with them!
During our 2 days trip, he was in contact with us all the time to make sure that everything is perfect & we’re enjoying the game drive, he never failed us in any thing and was always responsive.
We were very appreciative to his whatsapp messages every now and then to check on us.
As much as we enjoyed our trip & the service with “Nkollo tours”, we asked him to plan our remaining days in Zanzibar.
Thus, we booked Safari Blue with him the other day.
One we arrived, we were surprised by a boat decoration from him for our honeymoon, it was another one of a kind experience, floating on the island in a special boat with heart shapes and flowers. A special decoration for our special occasion!
You will rarely find a business that would offer extra thing without a return!
We took all our activities in private which made it even more luxurious and relaxing!
Me and my husband highly recommend Nkollo and will lastly say, he is the person to go for in Tanzania!
