Stellar, five star safari in Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti!
This safari was FIVE STARS, hands down! We spotted all of the animals we’d hoped to see — lions, hippos, zebra, giraffes, leopards, etc, but also very rare animals including two black rhinos and even a caracal cat! However, it was the amazing dialogue with our guide/driver Amani that made this safari so enjoyable.
Amani was absolutely phenomenal! With over 15 years of tour experience, he proved to have a wealth of knowledge. Amani was extremely flexible and a pleasure to be on tour with - he shared so much information on the flora and fauna, but also about local culture and context. He was patient and answered our never-ending questions about the animals and their behaviours. Importantly, he was a skilled and safe driver, even under the sometimes challenging conditions of fog, and bumpy and dusty roads. Amani was well-known and clearly respected by other tour operators in the parks: others were very friendly with him, and we even heard a few specifically call out to him by name with tips over the CB radio. Amani also respected and upheld the rules of the parks, showing his deep respect for conservation and wild animal welfare.
Communicating with Ernest and David was very easy, and they were both quick to respond. The lodges were clean and as described, and the 'Intimate Tented Lodge' in the Serengeti National Park was particularly luxurious!
Would absolutely recommend!

Safari Subcontracted to Other Company
Quite surprised how expensive a 6 Day Safari in Tanzania could get. Price with Kili Slope Tour was quite good and the value for money (compared to other options) was decent.
Kili Slope subcontracted my safari to another company, so the schedule and details changed until the last minute. Was travelling solo was placed in a Land Cruiser with 6 people who all knew each other the first day and then a group of a different 5 people the next day.
The guide and cook were all good, the tents were OK/average compared to others and all safaris are in the same land cruiser, so no issues there.

Highly experienced and extremely accommodating!
I started researching this trip properly 3 years ago, & emailed a LOT of companies. Kili Slope Tours & Safaris stood out by far; the tour package they offered was perfect (mid range, 9 day safari inc Arusha National Park, 3 nights in the Serengeti, Taragire National Park, & the Ngorogoro crater), very small group (no more than 4), & the cost was extremely reasonable.
David, the owner, was so very helpful & fully answered all my many MANY questions at all hours on WhatsApp. I’d decided on Kili Slope Tours just as covid hit, but he kept in touch throughout & did not hassle, and was completely accommodating with the constant changes occurring due to the pandemic.
Kili Slope Tours offer small group safaris which really appealed to me. Pretty much all the companies use the same type of car, (4x4 Land Cruiser, who’s roof can be pushed up, with 7 seats + guide). Having witnessed a lot of the big tour companies packing the people into their cars, where every seat was taken, I was hugely grateful that David promised no more than 4. To be able to move about within the car & get to see everything when it mattered was so important. As it turned out, there was just me & one other guest in the car, as the other couple of guests had passport difficulties at the last minute (sad for them but a result for me).
My guide was Stuart, who’s company I very much enjoyed & who’s great experience & knowledge of nearly 20 years was obvious when we were out on safari. I’m sure everyone says that about their guide, but he took decisions that others did not, and as a result we witnessed some truly fabulous scenes, and we would quite often be the only car.
The accommodation & food at every location was v good, especially the luxury tented camp in the Serengeti which is an experience not to be missed.
I’d definitely recommend Kili Slope Tours & Safaris- they can offer a more unique experience with a personal touch, and offer a flexibility that other companies do not. I’d also add that travelling as a solo woman, I always felt particularly safe & well looked after.
Thank you, David (Senior & Junior) & Stuart, for making my Tanzanian safari trip a truly unforgettable experience.

Good support
We would like to say thank you to David and his team for all the organisations of our safary, because firstly we booked safari with differet company and it was fraud, person whom we made a preepayment stoped to answer our messages. So David helped us to make a report for police and search this person, he covered from his budget part of the fraud and organized us a new safari. He kept in touch us during all the trip and answered all our cuestions, very good support! Hotels and lodges were amazing, we felt african ambience during at all time of our safari!

Wonderful safari days with the perfect tour operator!
We only had 2 days for the safari and a very limited budget. Thanks to David and his team, we got a lot of positive emotions, saw a lot of animals in Tarangire and Arusha National Parks (including 4 of the big 5) and just had a great time.
Many thanks to Sia who turned out to be a very professional good guide, good driver and just a good guy.
I recommend Kili Slope to everyone.

Excellent
We had a very good time with our guide RAMADHAN CHAMBUSO. He picked us up at the hotel the first day and took excellent care of us until the end. His eye for animals is unique. We have seen them all. Since we were traveling alone with him as a family, he was able to perfectly adapt the five safari days to our wishes and his ideas.

Awesome 4day safari experience
Through a friend I got in touch with Kilislopes and David organized a wonderful safari tour for me and my girlfriend.
The communication was fast and uncomplicated, due to Corona we could only confirm our trip the day before we arrived but everything worked out perfectly. We were picked up at the airport and started from there with guide and cook on an incredible 4-day camping safari (Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, Ncorongoro Crater). We saw the BIG 5 and the overnight stay in a tent in the Serengeti was a unique experience. The safari exceeded my expectations - thanks a lot for these amazing days! Asante sana!

Well organized, fantastic trip!!!
We did a Kilimanjaro hike (Lemosho route 7 days) and a 5 day Safari (Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, Ngorongoto Crater) with Kili Slope Tours and Safari in October 2021. The communication in advance was easy and uncomplicated and the organization of the trip and team was great.
We successfully climbed the Kili, had an awesome guide and team where we always felt comfortable and safe. Also at the safari we had a great guide and cook and had a fantastic time. The tour was organized on our preferences so we really got what we wanted to do and see. I can highly recommend the tour operator. Thank you very much for this great holiday!

Fantastic safari experience with Kili Slope!
I had a fantastic experience with Kili Slope Tours and Safaris! We spent one week traversing Serengeti, Ndutu, and Ngorongoro. We had a fantastic experience and I look forward to returning with Kili Slope! Everything went perfectly and I have nothing but positive remarks. Our driver Simon was exceptional and provided us with a fantastic experience. We saw countless leopards, lion, cheetah, and more. I was impressed with Kili Slope Tours for several reasons. Their equipment is high quality and maintained well. For example, the tread on the tires was VERY GOOD and this is important with the wed and muddy road conditions while on safari. Other vehicles with old tires would get stuck in the mud but we never had an issues. Additionally, the tents we used while camping were brand new, clean, and comfortable. Overall, I am very satisfied with my experience and would highly recommend Kili Slope to anyone looking for a great safari experience!
An amazing experience
It was the best experience so far.
We met David and he helped us with a lot of informations.
Kili Slope and tours is the best agency, Jackson ,the driver, is very kind and professional.I sent my request to at least 10 agencies but I chose Kili Slope.
We changed several times the dates, the schedule because of the pandemic but everything went well.
I would highly recommend it.
