Custom Tour in Kilimanjaro Area
We had a series of day trips including one to Arusha National Park and one to Tarangire NP. The other two days involved more local activities, one in the Marangu area and one in the Lawate - Sanya Juu area. The weather curtailed a few of our anticipated activities, but what we did get to do was very enjoyable. The food was plentiful and delicious. Norbert was a great driver/guide to the two national parks.
Communications could have been a little better at times. That may have been partly due to our somewhat last-minute arrangement of our itinerary, or due to the fact that we were staying at the lodge of a friend of a friend, so we coordinated more often with that friend than with Brian himself.

Tarangire NP
My daughter and I didn't want to do a long safari. We wanted to do two or three days in Northern Tanzania. A friend recommended Dahlia Tours. We communicated with Aron and Brian by email before arriving in Tanzania. Aron provided us with a lot of information on short safaris. A lifetime dream of mine was to see Baobob trees. We decided on Tarangire. We had a marvelous time. Our guide Bryce was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Our second day was spent at Mt. Kilimanjaro's NP. We spent the day with our guide Paschal wading at the bottom of waterfalls, participating in roasting and grinding coffee beans which we brewed and enjoyed. We are looking forward to our next trip to Tanzania. The guys at Dahlia Tours took very good care of us like we were family.

WE HAD VERY LOVELY AND LUXURY TRIP TO AFRICA
I want to say THANK YOU to Dahlia Africa, organisers of Our trip to Tanzania, going to the National parks, visiting the Street kids Project and climbing the highest mountain of Kilimanjaro has been one of the most memorable and transformation times of my family life. The people we met along the way, FAZA (what a guide), he was intelligent, reliable, funny, sincere and a pleasure to get to know. He told us so much about the mountain, the country, you all, he has so much knowledge to share.
The staff at Dahlia tours were so great. Friendly, fun and loveable. Brian - what a lovely man. He took us to the school project and showed us round with great detail and sensitivity, he invited us to his home for a wonderful African and delicious dinner.
AM SORRY I can’t remember all, The Mountain Men was gentle, really funny, welcoming, re-assuring and again, really made me laugh. All the porters, I do know lots of their names, Emanuel, Willy the fabulous cook and the others which I know their faces so well, but I think the altitude affected my memory. The trip manager Catherine and Levina - again, kind, funny, reliable, knowledgeable and welcoming. I was moved, challenged, and humbled by the humanity and kindness we experienced. I laughed so much and felt like I made friends. The mountain was spectacular and unforgiving and majestic and I summited on my birthday. You probably heard that Sam (my youngest son) suffered quite a lot from the altitude, however managed to get the summit by the great! Great! helping hand of the team, they said it is sad moment if any of their customer fail to reach the summit, we are both very grateful for all the input and thought gone into our trip. I have experienced travel with several organizations, but nothing like this. So personal and with integrity too. So, thanks to you all. All the best and I will let people know about Dahlia tours and safari.

GREAT AGENCY.
We had great time on our one week tour to Tanzania. Dahlia Team did an amazing job in organizing our tour at very high level. Hotels were perfect. Our driver was very informative and entertaining. Our guide Godfray was the best guide we have ever met. He was very funny and a great photographer. He took beautiful pictures for us. Local village trip was different experience. There were no issues happened during our 7days.Everything went smoothly and we had a wonderful trip. We strongly recommend this safari organizer.

EVERYTHING TOP QUALITY
Having returned from Mount Kilimanjaro Trek, I feel compelled to write a review, from start to finish the trip excelled.
A special thanks to our wonderful guides. They exceeded our expectations and I can't thank them enough. So a big shouts out to Brian, Faza and Catherine who led with patience and professionalism. They were a force to be reckoned with and through their knowledge, experience and friendliness it made the trip the amazing experience it was. Also big thanks to our porters and cook who ware an integral part of the team. From the onset of our journey it was an excellent experience. Hotels and eco lodges were top class.
Many thanks to all the team at

SUMMIT KILIMANJARO SAFE
Brilliant team at Dahlia tours kilimanjaro team a trek leader was excellent, you have a great administrator who not only ensures safety of his Trekkers but also manages the support staff with dexterity. With Dahlia team around, we knew nothing could happen to us, on this challenging trek. The guide Michael was our true mountain man. Soft spoken, always on the move and disciplined. You have a real gem in him in your team, preserve him his porters were great support to this team which has made our Mount Kilimanjaro climb a safe and memorable trek. I remember every single moment when you stood in those dangerously rocks and places to ensure each one passed safe. Exceptionally best guides to the summit. We strongly recomend you

It was really awesome tour
A GREAT TOUR WITH GREAT PEOPLE!
From start to finish this trip was perfect. In Tanzania, our guide was a top notch professional and extremely knowledgeable, taking us off the beaten path to provide us with an unrivalled experience in the parks. Dahlia’s advices for Tanzania were also unimpeachable. Our guide provided us with a social and political perspective no travel brochure could provide. It was a privilege for us to have him share his story with us which was honest, raw, and poignant and changed us in profound ways. We surprised by the level of hospitality from the owner of Dahlia Africa, he organized for us a free BBq dinner at the end of our trip and he bother to drive us to the airport himself he made us felt we paid less for all we got. We recommend you to our friends and travelers.
