Read this before deciding
5/5

I wish to start this review by telling a bit of information about me. I'm not a type of person that does extreme sports or nothing crazy for that matter. I'm the type of person who enjoys other people's company and I like to talk with people around a beer in general.

The experience of climbing Kilimandjaro is one of the deepest connection you can do to your soul. It will change your life. Now if you're reading this and thinking which tour operator to use, based on costs and reviews, then you should take this into consideration.

You will probably do this only once in your life. So it is an important decision for you. I have to say that throughout my climb, I met a few other people like me, but they were part of other tour operators. Surprisingly, many of them were complaining about their crew and the quality. It seemed that they just wanted to have it over with and not enjoying the experience.

Lost in Africa was not like this, at all. To start with the basics, the care, the attention and the quality were always their priority. Which makes it ultra important if you want to enjoy your experience to the fullest.

However, for me, the most important aspect was the human connection I made with my team. Writing this review actually brings tears to my eyes, because I already miss my team so much. The relationship created throughout the climb of the highest point in Africa was the part that makes it just more unforgettable.

They were all so caring and went above and beyond expectations.

This is why, I can only recommend Lost in Africa. You will cherish these memories all your life, and not just because of the mountain, but mostly because of the human connection with the team.

Thank you so much to Hans, for organizing.
And infinite thanks to Ismail, Patric, David, Fundi, Hamisi, Baraka, Preego, Eli, Ibrahim.

Amazing Safari Tour
5/5

we had a wonderful time in various national parks in northern tanzania. Despite the very short-term booking due to covid-19, hans advised us in an incredibly friendly, patient and competent manner from the first second and put together an individual offer for us. everything was totally uncomplicated! with immanuel we had the best guide you can imagine, he gave everything for 7 days to make us happy and he definitely did it. we have learned so much about the animals and the nature of tanzania and we can hardly wait to come back some day. absolute highest rating for lost-in-africa, it really couldn't have been better or more trustworthy. hopefully see you soon and hakuna matata

Amazing
5/5

That was an amazing trip from beginning to end. We were able to arrange the itinary in a very short time thanks to Hans. We stayed 2 different places and each were great. The place, people, service, meals, all of them. We were able to see many animals. Thanks to our guide Emmanuel we also saw lions at the very end of of our tour. I would recommend here for anyone Who is interested in safari. Besides from safari we also loved the places we stayed and the people there. The whole experience was five star. İn the future I want to go Serengeti too, Lost in Africa is definetly the one I will choose.

Best experience
5/5

Best experience ever, Tuma a guide who went out of his way to find us the Big Five.
We had come for our honeymoon and Hans organized and offered us extraordinary lodges.

I recommend this agency with eyes closed again thanks to them!

If I had to do it again, I would do it again without hesitation.

Love, nature and having fun, best experience ever!
5/5

We had the best experience with Lost in Africa!

Three days of safari that we will remember forever, with Patrick and Tadei, really nice staff and they taught us the love and respect to the animals, the environment…

Patrick knows all the roads of Serengueti and NgoroNgoro so he took different roads than the others and it seemed like we were almost alone with all the animals!

And the food that Tadei cook to us was delicious, best meals over safari’s day.

I recommend it 100%!!!!

The most amazing experience!
5/5

Everything on our trip was really perfect thanks to Hans, Patrick, Ismail, the rest of the guides and staff, and of course thanks to Tanzania having so many beautiful places :)

We stayed at the Lost in Africa hotel, did the 3 day Mount Meru hike, and the 4 day safari in Tarangire, Ngorogoro, Serengeti.

We would definitely recommend booking with Lost in Africa. We really had the best experience ever. We didn’t have any personal recommendations to go off of but Hans was so friendly and helpful when we contacted him that we felt like we definitely wanted to book with Lost in Africa. We went for it and we were more than happy with our decision.

The Lost in Africa hotel itself is a really cool place to stay and we enjoyed our nights there. The staff there and Hans are all really nice and went above and beyond. The food was also delicious.

For the hike, our guides Ismail and Patrick and the rest of the team really made it a great experience for us and it exceeded our expectations. We had a wonderful time and would love to do Kilimanjaro in the future with them.

The safari was truly amazing. Patrick is a great safari guide and we enjoyed exploring for four days with him. He’s very knowledgeable and seemed to know the parks like the back of his hand, and he’s also very professional, and funny. We managed to see all of the big five very quickly and saw so many animals the whole time. He adjusted our plans a little along the way to make sure we would have the best experience and everything worked really well.

If we get the chance to go back we will definitely book again with Lost in Africa and highly recommend it!

Thanks so much!

Amazing Safari Experience in Tanzania with the best company!
5/5

We booked a Kilimanjaro trek and safari through Lost in Africa - and with the help of Hans is was a magical experience!

Planning the trip was incredibly easy - especially since Hans quickly replied to my many questions and requests. He was able to plan the perfect trip for my partner and me.

Everything was so well organized that we didn't need to think or stress about next steps during our vacation. All of the transport, meals and lodging were perfect!

For our Kilimanjaro trek, we unfortunately could not complete because I unfortunately tripped and was injured. While it could have been a scary and sad experience, everything went super well. Ismail and Hans were able to organise a car down from Kili, a doctor visit and a hotel. I felt safe the whole time and was mostly scared and sad about having to miss out on the summit of Kili due to my clumsiness. Fortunately, we had a chat with Hans and he was able to quickly put together a new itinerary for us for the couple of days before our safari which turned out to be amazing. We even got to do a walking safari in Arusha national park!

For our main safari, we were fortunate enough to have Patrick as our guide. He is very experienced and super friendly. He was a fantastic guide who taught us so much about the culture, animals and country. We couldn't have asked for anyone better! It was such a pleasure getting to know him and sharing this experience. We loved every bit of the safari - including the hotels that Hans had organized for us and the routes that Patrick took us on.

I could not imagine going to Tanzania and not booking with Lost in Africa. I felt that the service is such a high level and Hans manages to keep the costs down (it was less than the other companies we looked at for the same trip!). I would highly recommend booking with them and I cannot wait to go back!
