one of the best experiences of our lives and travels with the best guide ever - IDRISSA HASSANI
We would like to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible experience we had during our safari in Serengeti, all thanks to our exceptional guide, IDRISSA HASSANI. We have travelled to many places and had many guides over the years, but truly, none have ever compared to him.
The way he made this safari unforgettable for us is beyond words. We noticed other guides following each other’s tracks, but him? He created his own route — and because of that, we were able to witness moments we never thought possible. We saw cheetahs with their cubs, lionesses with their cubs, around seven lions in total, and two leopards. We also saw countless other animals in the most beautiful settings, and the best part? Most of the time, it was just us there.
He didn’t just make this safari feel exclusive for us — he also showed immense respect for the animals. His knowledge was truly impressive, any question we asked, he had the answer instantly and with complete confidence. His warmth and kindness touched our hearts, and his availability and attention to our needs were remarkable. What stood out most was his evident passion for safaris and wildlife — something you cannot fake and something that made the whole experience even more special.
I personally might not have the chance to do another safari in my lifetime, but my daughters are already eager to return. I know that a huge part of their excitement and enthusiasm to come back is thanks to him.
We will absolutely recommend your company to anyone planning a safari with this guide, IDRISSA HASSANI !!
Warm regards,
Celina Serra & familly

THE BEST TRIP OF MY LIFE
Our safari in Tanzania was amazing. We visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It has been an unforgettable. The lodges we have stayed in were fantastic, specially the staf!!!!
And the best part of the trip was our guide, Rajabu, a local guide that speaks spanish and knows a lot about the sabana.
Asante Sana!!!

Best trip ever!
We worked with the Kibo Guides to create a perfect itinerary for the 8 day trip. Our Guide, Shabani, was absolutely the best. The accommodations were exactly as described and very close to where we were going to do our game drives. One thing that I like about Kibo Guides, is that they do not limit the driver to a daily milage limit as some other companies do. So, we had the privelidge of driving all day long and seeing more of the Serengeti than others may have. Our trip was everything we had hoped it would be. Thank you Kibo Guides!!

An overwelming experience with a perfect guide
We had a perfect trip with Elieza. All was very well prepared. One thing went a little wrong but was perfectly compensated.
We have seen en felt so incredibly much. We took our 13 days safari in Lodges, tentcamps in different areas like Ngorogore, Serengetti and other parts of Tanzania. It was all perfect organised. Our contact with our guide Elieza Ikamba Mvamba was a contact by hart. A perfect guide with a lot of experience, feeling for the right spots to find the big 5 and other animals and his knowledge about of of the nature. Kiboguides has no limitations of riding daily kilometers so we took our time in nature. Happy to be in Tanzania where the parcs have no fences so animals can go where the want.
Our guide has told a lot about living in Tanzania for locals, the changes in Tanzania and how politic is preparing the country for things in progress. In Europe the politicians could learn about it :-) . So it was not alway about safari but also changing our ways of life and understanding to each other. A life time experience in a frienly laughing country . Thank you Tanzania and thank you Elieza for being with us. We are very gratefull and a piece of our hart is still in your country. Asante sana sana for Elieza (Kibiguides) and al the Tanzanian people who gaves us an unforgettable safari. 5 stars excellent experience.
