5-Day Safari in Tanzania with Kili Vikinhs
My family and I took a 5-day safari trip with Kili Vikings https://www.safaribookings.com/day/t3520. It was a memorable experience.
Charlie R., the owner of Kili Vikings was fantastic. He arranged for every detail, explained everything through emails and answered all our questions ahead of time. He delivered everything he had promised. We had a great time, saw lots of animals and enjoyed every lodge/campsite, each having its own character. For the last day, we asked Charlie if he could change plans and arrange for something different as we had already seen so many animals in 4 days. He arranged another tour for us at one day's notice. We really appreciated the flexibility.
The breakfast and dinners at the campsites were great, but the picnic lunch boxes were repetitive and boring with overcooked dry food, with so many items that we could not possibly eat and were happy if we could find any takers.
But hey, you got to have some nuances along the way to call it an adventure.
Trustworthy
We did the 8 days Lemosho Route with Kili Vikings and it was a great experience, the guides were experienced and spoke great English which made the whole experience unforgettable! And the chef cooked amazing food! Would definitely recommend the agency
Amazing

Kilimanjaro expedition
Went in Feb 2025. Chose rongai route. Had a blast at Kilimanjaro. Great experience. Never had to worry about anything . Trusting Vikings was one of a good decision.

Successful Lemosho Tour
Thanks to Charlie and his team for this great trip!
I booked the Lemosho route with them to climb Kilimanjaro with 2 friends. We booked a public one but ended up with a "private" tour, having a spacious tent for the 3 of us incl. an area for table and chairs.
The food was probably the best we had in Tanzania, also more variety than e.g. on Safari with another company.
We booked 8 days but ended up with 7 days as we skipped one camp as fitness level and lack of altitude sickness allowed for it (Hotel &transfers got rearranged accordingly by the team).
Our guides also did a good job managing our speed, especially for summit night which was hard due to heavy winds But finally we made it with a perfect timing for the sunrise at 6:30 to Uhuru Peak

Fantastic holiday climbing Mt.Kilimanjaro followed by safari
I want to express my thanks to Charlie from Kilimanjaro Vikings for arranging an unforgettable climb to Mt. Kilimanjaro and safari for me and my family. We received an amazing service from our arrival to our departure. Specifically, our Kilimanjaro guide John, and assistant guide Prosper took their job personally. All 4 of us reached the peak, and we agreed that a big part of this success is owed to John, Prosper, and the rest of the Kilimanjaro Vikings crew. They acted as real professionals in all aspects: communication, navigation through the track, timing, and encouragement.
After completing the Kilimanjaro hike, we continued our trip with an 8-day custom-made safari. We received a savvy guide Nicolas, who without exaggerating knew every corner of the Tanzanian NPs and accommodated every wish of our group. Despite the bumpy roads, we felt we were in safe hands.
The combination of the Kilimanjaro hike and the safari's roads was a physically active holiday and we will cherish our Tanzania memories for the rest of our lives. Thank you Kilimanjaro Vikings team for the unforgettable experience!
Incredible experience! 10/10
We did the lemosho route (8 days) with our Guide John. The porters, cook and guides were so friendly and doing a great job! And we reached the top of Africa, the Uhuru Peak, it was awesome! We got delicious food and it cant be better.
We had a wonderful time, Kilimanjaro Vikings is a Great Operator.
Charlie is very friendly and he answered our questions in the beginning immediately.
All was great!
Thank you for all!

Exceptional Safari Experience at Ngorongoro Crater
My recent safari at Ngorongoro Crater was nothing short of extraordinary. The breathtaking landscape, combined with the rich diversity of wildlife, made for an unforgettable adventure.
**Scenery and Wildlife:**
The Ngorongoro Crater offers a stunning natural backdrop that feels almost surreal. The vast caldera, lush grasslands, and acacia forests create a perfect setting for wildlife viewing. During the safari, I had the privilege of witnessing a wide array of animals, including elephants, lions, rhinos, zebras, and countless bird species. The abundance and proximity of wildlife were truly remarkable.
**Guides and Staff:**
The guides were exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate about the environment and its inhabitants. Their expertise enhanced the experience, providing fascinating insights into animal behavior, ecology, and the history of the crater. The staff at the lodge were equally impressive, ensuring a comfortable and welcoming stay.
**Lodging and Amenities:**
The accommodation was top-notch, blending luxury with a sense of being close to nature. Comfortable rooms with spectacular views, delicious cuisine, and attentive service made the stay even more enjoyable. The lodge's commitment to sustainability and conservation efforts was also commendable.
**Special Acknowledgment:**
A special thanks to Charlie Richards, the director of Kilimanjaro Vikings, for organizing such a seamless and memorable safari. His dedication to providing an exceptional experience was evident in every detail, from the initial planning stages to the final moments of the trip. His passion for Tanzania's natural beauty and wildlife truly made this adventure stand out.
**Overall Experience:**
The safari at Ngorongoro Crater exceeded all my expectations. It offered an ideal blend of adventure, education, and relaxation. Whether you're a seasoned safari-goer or a first-timer, Ngorongoro Crater is a destination that should not be missed. I highly recommend this safari for anyone looking to experience the beauty and wonder of Africa's wildlife.
