Unforgettable safari in Tanzania
5/5

18-day friends safari and 4-day stay in Zanzibar.

The Kilidove team knew how to listen to our wishes and we made a wonderful trip, unforgettable and probably one of the most beautiful for me.

I want to thank Richard, our guide, for his kindness, his professionalism, his patience, and his continuous good humor. We have seen, thanks to him, an incalculable number of animals, and in particular leopards, lions, cheetahs, hyenas, giraffes, etc ...
Many thanks also to Mathias, our smiling and kind cook chief who has been able to prepare very good food despite sometimes difficult conditions.

I also want to thank Habib, our guide in Zanzibar for his good mood. He was able to share a little of the history and traditions of his island despite our short stay.

Asante sana also to all the team Kilidove, and a special mention to Mylène, for their availability and their kindness.

The company is very professional and their guide was superb. He has eagle eyes and went out of his way to find and show us the big-5. Very helpful and supportive.

5/5

After several emails with George we decided to rely on him for our safari. George organized a large 5 day safari Lake Manyara-Serengeti-Ngorongoro. We have to thank John our prepared and professional driver / guide and with a perfect Italian he explained everything we asked and guided us in the savannah with great skill he showed us all the Big Five. Thanks John, you're the best we could have. We advise everyone to go on safari with this company.

Wonderful experience
5/5

We did the 10 day Northern Migration tour. This was our first trip to Africa and Kilidove proved to be a perfect choice for our Safari. Everything flowed smoothly, from my first contact with George to book the tour until our farewell to Max at the airport. Our guide, Joshua, was personable, knowledgeable and excellent at finding animals. We saw two herds of wildebeest cross the river and also saw a large number of other species, averaging 30+ different species per day. Joshua was a very good driver and we felt safe with him at all times. The accommodation and meals were all of high quality. The vehicle was comfortable and we had no mechanical issues despite the challenging terrain. Our Safari exceeded our expectations and we would not hesitate to use Kilidove again.

5/5

Me and my husband were looking for a Safari Operator, which offers a mid-range safari & covers all the National Parks in the north of Tanzania. Therefore we used safari bookings.com. This is how we found Kilidove Tours with lots of good reviews. Finally we booked the "7-Day Best of Northern Tanzania Safari" via George. One of our best decisions!!! Everything went very smooth: he answered all our questions and also the payment went without any troubles.
In particular we loved our driver/guide Joshua! He is such a nice person with a heartly laugh. It was such a pleasure to spent the 7 days with him. We felt always very safe in his Jeep, because he is really a good driver. Furthermore, he knows sooo much about the animals and plants. Moreover, we were also talking a lot about Tanzania in general, the education, the Masaai people, the government...
We are also very satisfied with the chosen accommodations like the Mawe Tented Camp in Serengeti or Eileens Tree House. At Ngorongoro Crater we were very lucky and were upgraded so that we could stay dirctly at the rim of the crater-really fantastic view.
Altogether: We can highly recommend Kilidove Safaris and would also choose this Operator again and again. Joshua, see you one day again. All the Best!!! By the way, when will you pick us up after breakfast tomorrow ;-)))

Kilidove Tours and Safari was 5+ stars!
5/5

I used safari bookings to research and help select my safari operator and was thankful for the site. Kilidove Tours and Safari was on my shortlist and after numerous emails back and forth to George at Kilidove I knew that they were the Operator for me. He was prompt, professional, detailed in his correspondence and arranged the most memorable safari and cultural tour for me. I was looking for a mid-price safari and George arranged exactly what I was looking for. Very satisfied with the chosen accommodations of Mawe Tented Camp and Rhino Lodge, and the cultural tour George suggested and arranged after my safari was a day I'll never forget. It was the best!

As a solo female traveler it was important to me to feel comfortable and secure with the Operator I choose. I had a wonderful driver/guide in Joshua who was knowledgeable, pleasant and had an eye like a hawk. Couldn't ask for anything more and I highly recommend them and when I go back, which I will, I be contacting George at Kilidove!

Look Nowhere Else for a fantastic, full service safari experience!!
5/5

George was absolutely wonderful. Replied to all my queries and emails very quickly. He was very patient to work with us on the exact, customized safari vacation that we wanted and within our budget. He arranged absolutely everything: hotels, in country flights, game drives, everything. We stayed at his Mawe Tented Camp in the Serengeti. Superb facilities and customer service. Full on luxury camping and right in the middle of all the action. He has the best guides who are experienced, knowledgeable and customer service oriented. The best one: Boney! Request him. He picked us up at the airport and stayed with us the entire time until he dropped us off to fly to Zanzibar. He could spot a cheetah in waist high grass hundreds of yards away. He has been doing it for so long, he just knows what to look for in the habitat. We saw the big five thanks to him. He was super reliable and safe. We haven't stopped talking about this trip and George. Highly recommend!

George, Kilidove Tours and Mawe Camp in Serengeti
5/5

we booked our family safari tour through Tanzania with Kilidove Tours guided by Michael on a land cruiser it was one of our best holiday ever
The guide's eye is more than that of eagle he showed us everything rhinos, lions,hippos, elephants and he was very knowledgeable and very friendly we felt more than home
our tour included several parks of north Tanzania and a visit to Zanzibar
George put all plans together for us and we were honored to be welcomed and spend some nights at his luxury Mawe Tent Camp in the Serengeti. Make camp was the best place we stayed over all accommodation we stayed, the staffs are amazing, the location is fantastic its just one of the few places on earth where everyone wants to be.
Look no elsewhere Kilidove knows how to make your dream holiday come true

Perfect safari, perfect team, perfect guide -> unforgetable impressions
5/5

We did a 7 days safari in Tansania with Kilidove Tours end of August 2016 at nothern circuit with Arusha NP, Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Ngorongoro and of course the Serengeti. George aranged everything perfect, all Lodges, all gamedrives and visit to Oldupai-gorge were well organized. No problems at all. Incredible Impressions and Joshua (best guide south of the sahara) made this trip unforgetable. We will come back and do our next safari with Kilidove.
