An incredible safari experience!
5/5

My husband and I had an incredible trip with Kili Slope Tours and Safaris. We did a 5 day/4 night safari in Manyara NP, the Serengeti and Ngoro Goro. We honestly couldn't have asked for a more amazing experience!
During the booking process, David was always very prompt in responding to my emails and answering any questions that I had. During our time in Arusha, both before and after the safari, David went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that we were having a good trip and to help us get acquainted with the area in which we were staying. David is a wonderfully friendly and knowledgeable man.
On the safari itself, we had an excellent driver (Nova). Nova was full of interesting facts and information about the animals and the National Parks. He answered all of our questions and was really friendly. We were lucky enough to see all of the Big 5 aswell as a lioness and her cubs with a wildabeest which the lioness had killed. This was definitely the highlight of our trip! The food served on the safari was very varied and delicious.
I would definitely recommend David and Kili Slopes to my friends and family and I will be booking with them again on my next trip to Tanzania!

Fun and flexible and best value out there.
5/5

Great communication, even when we had an issue on exchange rates, the operator David was super professional and did me a solid. They were very flexible as we changed itinerary twice and they were great with all our requests. I'd give advice to be more proactive with what you want and bring cash as we thought th eery took credit cards and they did not.

Competent, Skilled and Knowledgable!
5/5

As an outdoor guide and educator myself, I had a unique appreciation for our head guide's (Suma) leadership style, safety prioritization, risk assessment and energetic presence. He always laid out all of our options, asked us for our opinions and input, and prioritized each client's personal and medical needs throughout the expedition. He was always kind, supportive, energetic and enthusiastic. SUCH a fun, incrediblly special, and (I found) an emotionally intimate experience. Would do again in a heartbeat and would most certainly request Suma and his team again. The food was incredible and they easily catored to my gluten-free diet.

Amazing team to take us up Kili!
5/5

The team who took us up Mt Kilimajaro were so amazing and knowledgeable. We felt safe at all times with such an experienced head guide in Suma, and a great support team of assistant guides, chefs and porters.

Would recommend to anyone, but remember to go slow - Pole Pole!

Why are you waiting- go on safari now it will be awesome!
5/5

Great group and totally recommend safariing with them!
First compliment to Kili, great on adaptability for clients!
My friend planned a five day safari- and with Kili Slope and it sounded so cool when he told me about it I asked if it was possible to join (this is about a month before the start date). And Kili got me added into the itinerary without issue- which also brought the cost down a little for my friend as now we were sharing lodging.
Also regarding adaptability- my friend really wanted our destinations to include Lake Manyara- but David altered this last minute to the nearby Tarangerie park because of flooding in Manyara that made it unfeasible. This was a great substitution, and over the course of the safari we saw plenty of lions in trees which was the major draw of Manyara anyways.

Also shout out to Eliya who does the airport transfers- great personality and like me loves to be early just in case! I once got stranded at Lima airport because the car from my lodging never showed up so I was pretty apprehensive about the airport transfers for this trip based on that experience- but there was no need for concern! Its easy to get ahold of David on whatsapp and confirm pickup times and Eliya was always there ready for me.

We saw lots of amazing animals animals, and our guide Bakari was very responsive to our interests (like highlighting any new large birds) and making sure I got to see the amazing little potato animals I adore, the Hyrax. We saw a lot of elephants and giraffes and lions, often very close. Never saw a leopard but I did see 4 mongoose so I’ll take that as a win. Also Bakari fixed a popped tire really fast and always got great strategic viewing angles even at crowded sites- 10/10 for our guide.

Overall this trip reminded me of a Viking Cruise I did with my family, the locations were amazing, and once you were with the group you didn’t have to worry about anything. Also the breakfasts and dinners were really good and mostly buffet style
which I always think is best to fully customize types and amounts of food.

Overall a trip with Kili Slope is an incredibly good value, I hope to talk friends and family into doing future
safari trips to Tanzania after this experience.

Professional and well organised company with family like climbing team
5/5

Kilimanjaro 6-day Lemosho climb was greatly organised! The contact with David from Kilislope went smooth and our guide Ismael, led us very professional to the summit. His team is like a well oiled family, of which all members want to provide an amazing experience and also look out for each other. It was very enjoyable to be part of this special family. Thanks!

Safari tour with Kili Slope Tours and Safari was excellent
5/5

Our January 2024 Safari tour with the Kili Slope Tours and Safari was great!
Ziggy, our guide was very knowledgeable - he shared a ton of animal facts, knew where to look for the animals, and could even speak animal language - wildebeests seemed to respond to his calls :)
He also was a pleasure to talk to - great communication skills and sense of humor.
To top this all, he is a super driver - safe and reliable - a very important skill in the wilderness with lots of rain and no paved roads.
Halid, our cook is hands down the best cook ever - his meals were always fresh and very delicious. He was also happy to share his recipes and tricks with us.

Just Amazing
5/5

When we arrive at the airport there was Ziggy, our guide, waiting for us. After a coffee stop to meet with David Maro and paid (with some difficulties due to our banks) we spend the night at the hotel. In the morning we started our tour in Tarangire, followed by Lake Manyara, three days in Serengeti and one last day in Ngorongoro. Each Lodge/Tented Camp were all up to standards, the food was great and the rooms were clean. Thanks to Ziggy we saw all the Big Five and spent a great week whit him. He was really knowled about all the wildlife and explained everything to us very well. We decided together how to proceed in the trip. Even Elia, that drove us to the airport, was amazing. We really recommend to book with this company, you will not be disappointed!

5/5

David, the owner of Kili Slopes Tours helped me put my 16 day itinerary together. The trip was everything we expected and more. Stewart our expert driver was wonderful and nothing was too much trouble. We visited 6 national parks and did 18 game drives. We saw the big 5 and I think most of the animals and birds. Our accommodation was outstanding, especially the bush camps. My husband became ill and the staff were amazing, attending to his needs at all the places we visited. Of course, the highlights were seeing leopards, cheetahs, servile and lots of lions. My daughter, Racquel really loved this trip as it was her first safari. She adores all of the game. Thank you Stewart & David for making our trip so wonderful and it will be something we will treasure for ever.

Proffesional!
5/5

Our 4 Days Tanzania Budget Joining Safari was magnificent. Organisation was really good, all transfers on time, accomodations in comfortable campsites and what is the most important, our guide Amani made this excursion as an ultimate expirience.
We have seen a lot of animals duiring our drives. He was super involved into his job and did evrything to give us as many unforgetable memories as possible.
Also we didn't need any additional snack on tour due to Tom - our cook. All meals were delicious and super well prepared.
