Excellent Safari
5/5

We had an unforgettable experience with Kitawa African Safaris in Tanzania! From start to finish, everything was perfectly arranged. The staff was warm, professional, and always ready to help, which made us feel very welcome throughout our journey.

Our guides spoke excellent English and were extremely knowledgeable, not only about the wildlife but also about the culture and landscapes of Tanzania. They made every game drive exciting and educational, sharing fascinating insights and answering all our questions with enthusiasm.

The accommodations and facilities exceeded our expectations—comfortable, clean, and with great attention to detail. After adventurous days out in nature, it was wonderful to relax in such a pleasant environment.

We would highly recommend Kitawa African Safaris to anyone looking for a well-organized, authentic, and truly memorable safari experience.

Amazing tour, amazing guide!!
5/5

It was such a wonderful experience to go on tour with Kitawa! Our guide was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and always made sure to show us the most beautiful and unique places. The accommodations that Kitawa arranged for us were also lovely and comfortable, which made the whole journey even more enjoyable. When we mentioned that we were on our honeymoon, they made special adjustments to our trip to make it even more memorable and personal, something we truly appreciated. Everything was amazing, from the organization to the experiences themselves, and we are also very satisfied with the price-quality ratio. We are deeply grateful to Kitawa for making this such a beautiful and unforgettable adventure!

Wonderful Experience traveling thru Kenya & Tanzania with Kitawa
5/5

We enjoyed our safari with Kitawa.
Our guides were wonderful, especially Gordan Opany & Said Licky.
Both spoke excellant English, took our party of 6 under their wings to make us feel welcome and comfortable. We felt very safe. Our accommodations were outstanding
For the most part. We especially enjoyed Lake Navaisha Lodge, Speke Bay Lodge, even Eka Hotel to begin and end our safari journey. We definately would recomend Kitawa Safari Company to our neighbors & friends. We saw every animal imaginable (Including the Big 5)! Our guides were informative about the animals, history of Africa, crossing the boarder, in general all qluestions were answered. Nixon (The big boss) was easy to communicate with as we had lots of questions before our trip! Thank you for making our adventure dream come true.

19 days of adventure and wildlife
5/5

A year prior to our September Safari we started planning. Pat, my wife and I had did a Safari 2017 in South Africa and Kenya. It was a trip of a lifetime and we wanted to experience it again with my sister and husband and our college friends. The guide we had in Kenya in 2017, had quit the profession. So I started searching the internet looking for a safai company that had a good reputation and was reasonably priced. Kitawa was company we chose. For a year I worked with Nixon, the owner of Kitawa to plan the safari. We loved Kenya and also wanted to experience Tanzania and the Great Migration. Nixon did a great job in organizing the trip, using multiple guides and routing us over 1500 miles of Africa roads and through over dozen parks. We saw 10,000s of African animals, from all the cats, rhinos, elephants, giraffes, crocodiles, wildebeest, zebras, hippos etc.. Our accommodation were between luxury to standard, food was good and the guides and all the African people were friendly and accommodating. Thxs Nixon for organizing this great adventure!!!

An unforgettable experience and top-notch organization.
5/5

On February 1st, we returned from a 26-day trip through Tanzania, Zanzibar, and Egypt, and I have nothing but words of gratitude for the Kitawa team. From the very first contact, the planning was impeccable, but what truly made the difference was the execution and the seamless development of the itinerary once we were in Africa.

As a traveler, I greatly value punctuality and in-depth knowledge of the destination, and Kitawa exceeded all expectations. The safari scheduling was perfect, allowing us to connect with nature in an authentic and unhurried way. The logistics between the national parks and the transfer to the beaches of Zanzibar ran like clockwork, allowing us to enjoy ourselves with complete peace of mind. In Egypt, it was a private trip where we were pampered in every way.

If you are looking for an agency that not only sells a package, but is truly committed to ensuring that the trip runs smoothly and seamlessly, Kitawa is the perfect choice. Thank you for helping us fulfill this dream with such professionalism!
