I had a great time
5/5

Actually I booked twice with Castro. First time Kilimanjaro + Safari and the second time Mount Meru + Safari.
My guide and the porters were all very nice, gentle and helpful... The communication in english was very good. Always as possible I use local business and this was a great choice. I got picked up at time in the airport and food was very good too. As photographer, you always need patience guides and the definitely helped me a lot to get good pictures!

One day hike to base camp 1 Mt Kilimanjaro and back. 8km up and 1,000 mt climb
5/5

I was extremely happy with the trip. What made the trip so great were the friendly staff that made it happen. I felt very safe with the driver as travelling on road can be very stressful. The guide "Moses" was totally professional and so knowledgeable and made the day so much more interesting. I would use their services again if I ever needed to.

Great experience
5/5

The team and tour manager Castro was very helpful. He was easily reachable before safari during planning.
We both had a safari trip in Serengeti and Ngorongoro, and climb to Kilimanjaro, Uhuru peak.
Different teams accompanied us during safari and Kilimanjaro climb. Both team were excellent. There were absolutely no problems during our 10 days Tanzania trip.

Great tailor-made safari experience
5/5

It was a great, effortless organisation by Castro. Utilizing his know-how of the safari experience and region, Castro offered us a very good planned trip, that shaped according to our requests. Also during the tour, team was very flexible in terms of making last minute adjustments and changes.

Very relaxed, peaceful and friendly in general.
5/5

We had a great time with our driver Patrick and cook Ali from Kilimanjaro Trip Safaris. Accomodation and food was good throughout the four day tour and the wildlife in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Manyara national parks didn't disappoint. The pride of cheetahs lounging on a bluff in the Serengeti and the male lions we saw in Ngorongoro were the highlights for me, though the birdlife was as impressive as the bigger animals for me.

Good price and reasonable service at the african way
4/5

It didn’t go perfectly smooth, we had some inconvenient s and some misunderstanding but it’s ok considering it is a very different culture. Service was good considering it was absolutely the cheapest proposal we had. Is is still very expensive but this is due to the high taxes. Castro was finally very helpful and honest.

Serious, human and authentic.
5/5

Magic!!! I will remember for a very long time this safari organized by Kilimanjaro trip safaris. Everything was perfect. If you want an authentic safari with gold guides, this company is for you. After making many quotes, Kilimanjaro trip was the cheapest with superior performance compared to many competitors. We were 2 with my wife and had a perfect cook and a guide who spoke French. The 2 were extremely kind and we had a hard time leaving them. We were able to share meals, discussions and unforgettable moments with them.

If this company is simple and humane, the quality of the service is just as exceptional.
Thanks to Castro for this perfect organization.

Bespoke itinerary with perfect balance of service and value
5/5

Castro was was helpful and responsive in organizing a bespoke private safari to the Ngorongoro crater and the Serengeti NP. We were seeking a trip with some comfort but without luxury or excess, for a reasonable price, and Kastro delivered just that. In particular, Kastro arranged for us to overnight at the Serengeti Research Hostel (a well-kept secret for comfortable budget lodging) along with a a private cook, Freddy, (providing the best food on our trip) in order to provide just the right balance of value and comfort. Kastro and our guide, Arthur, both greeted us at the airport and even greatly assisted with sorting out our delayed baggage with the airline, and even drove 4 hours each way in the night to deliver the baggage when it finally arrived on a later flight! Arthur was friendly and enthusiastic and struck the right balance between seeking wildlife on our own and making use of the radios to see what other guides had discovered. Highly recommended, especially for those seeking to create a bespoke itinerary.

excellent safari. Very experienced and proficient driver and guide. One in two.
5/5

The journey was organized professional. We could stop and go when we want. Patric the driver, knows where is the biggest chance to see animals. We could enjoy the view as long as we want. We saw all big five and a lot of other animals. This tour operator is very professional and we are lucky did the safari with them. I definitely recommend this company.
Thanks for Castro and Patric!
