Very personal and caring approach
We experienced very personal approach. The owner Iddy was very nice and welcoming. Since we are more regular tourists than experience climbers, a day before the tour, our guide Gadiel evaluated our clothing and equipment and suggested what we have to rent additionally for better experience. Gadiel and his team (in total 4 persons just for two of us!) was very helpful. One of us is vegetarian and on a gluten free diet, so the the food was prepared in a way that both of us had nice things to eat and the food very tasty as well! They even baked special gluten free bread for us on the camp kitchen! It was wonderful!
The also took care for us, so that we were well guided till the peak of Meru and back. I think that the experience of our guide Gadiel helped us to reach the peak. The approach to do in a poko poko (slowly or little by little) way was the key for the success. And we were very happy about that. This is definitely value for money tour operator.
We were also very lucky - the weather conditions were perfect for climbing, so we got a wonderful views and memories.
Thank you - Samora Explorers. Have a great adventures and happy customers!

Focus on making it the best experience possible!
All of our guides went out of their way to make sure we had the best possible experience. They were extremely knowledgeable about the area and culture…and always did whatever they could to make sure we had front row seats for the animals. Wished we would have stayed longer!!

G was the best guide!
Godlisten Jr was my guide. He has a lot of experience and it shows! He answered all my in-depth and silly questions. He taught us and sang a traditional song. He taught us a Tanzanian game! He would ask what we wanted to see that day and he would find it for us! He would navigate the truck to get the best angles for pictures. He kept us laughing the whole ride and accommodated any request we had. I cant imagine going back and not requesting him!

Excellent 5-day Safari trip with Samora explorers
We have had the pleasure of going on a 5-day Safari trip in Tanzania with Samora explorers and we can't recommend them enough!
From first contact with Samora explorers via email we were met with a friendly, professional and helpful attitude. We got to customize the itinerary to best fit our schedule and according to our preferences, always receiving response to any questions in a timely manner.
On the Safari we went to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and lake Manyara with our awesome and knowledgeable guide Bernard. Thanks to him we got to see a lot of animals including the big 5. He was always taking care of us and making sure we had a good time.
We also had our own chef(!) Elibariki with us during the whole trip who prepared delicious food for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. Even for lunch during the safari he prepared proper hot meals, unlike some other groups we saw that got lunch boxes with sandwiches and chips.
This has been one of the most amazing trips of our lives and it would not have been the same without Bernard and Elibariki! Once again, we really recommend Samora explorers for safari trips in Tanzania.

Better than we could have hoped for!
Emidy at Samora Explorers provided the trip of a lifetime! This Safari exceeded all expectations. Not only did we see the Big 5, I love reptiles and got to see a crocodile and python as well. We cannot wait to return with our kids and do a longer trip so that we can continue learning and enjoying with Emidy. Already recommending to our friends.

Posted on Aug 29, 2026Hi Garrett,
It makes us incredibly happy to know that your safari turned out to be even better than you had hoped for!
Having the chance to see the Big Five, along with a crocodile and python, must have made the adventure even more exciting — especially as someone who loves reptiles.
We are particularly touched that you are already thinking about coming back with your children for a longer safari. Knowing that you would choose Emidy again to continue discovering and learning about Tanzania is a wonderful compliment.
Thank you for spreading the word about Samora Explorers. We cannot wait to welcome your family back and create more special memories together.
Tanzania will always have another wild adventure waiting for you. Karibu tena!

Perfect 7-day journey up Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho route with Samora Explorers
My mother and I did a 7 day trek up Mt Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho route, and when we got down to the gate on our last day, I wanted to turn around and go right back up. It was an amazing trip, and the Samora team was fabulous. The other people in our group cancelled at the last minute so it was only the two of us, and the guides and porters made us feel like royalty. Seeing groups with other companies, I was so grateful that our guides, Gadiel and Felix, were so patient and relaxed with us, and the porters were all so kind and happy. It felt like a great group of friends. Gadiel and Felix shared a lot of knowledge with us about the mountain, the plants and animals, and the people who make these treks possible. They were conscientious about our health and safety and made sure to check in constantly about how we were handling the altitude. We both felt a little rough at different points, and they took care of us and made sure we got to the summit healthy and happy. We were blown away at the fresh meals prepared by the chef, Elibariki, and had more than we could possibly eat. They were all flexible and patient with us, and treated my mother so sweet. My only regret was that we could not stay longer!

Posted on Aug 29, 2026Hi Alyssa,
Your review truly made us smile! ❤️ Knowing that you and your mother reached the summit of Kilimanjaro feeling healthy and happy, and that you were already wishing you could turn around and climb again, is incredibly special.
A huge thank you for recognizing Gadiel, Felix, Elibariki and our wonderful porters. Their patience, care and attention to your safety, especially during the challenging moments with altitude, are exactly what we want every guest to experience.
We are also so pleased that you enjoyed the fresh meals and the knowledge shared about the mountain, its nature and the local people. It sounds like our team became more than just a trekking crew — they became part of your adventure and your memories.
Thank you for choosing Samora Explorers for such an important journey with your mother. We are honoured to have been part of it.
The summit may be behind you, but Kilimanjaro will always be waiting for your next adventure. Karibu tena!
