An absolute trip of a lifetime with unforgettable memories that I will cherish forever!
5/5

A truly unforgettable experience! Mafie made my dream come true. I had been dreaming of climbing this mountain for a couple of years, and from the very beginning, Erastus was always available—day or night—to answer any questions or concerns I had about the trip.

He made everything clear, from pricing to the crew to choosing the right number of days, ensuring that my father and I had the best possible chance for a successful summit and an incredible experience. On top of that, the value for what we paid was exceptional—honestly far beyond what we expected for the level of service and care we received.

We were beyond satisfied with the entire team. With two guides, a cook, and nine porters, everyone felt like family by the end of the journey. We truly would not have made it to the summit without them.

Oliver and Matthew were outstanding—extremely knowledgeable about the mountain and always making the right decisions based on how we were feeling each day. The food was absolutely incredible, far exceeding our expectations. And the porters were amazing—always smiling, offering fist bumps as they passed us, and somehow arriving ahead of us at camp to have everything perfectly set up.

Honestly, the whole team felt superhuman with their strength, positivity, and constant support. Nothing was ever done halfway; it was the best hospitality I’ve ever experienced in my life.

If you’re considering climbing Kilimanjaro, going on safari, or doing any expedition in northern Tanzania, I would 1000000% recommend this company. Mafie is truly exceptional at what they do.

They were a confident, positive, and knowledgeable crew, and made our experience fun and memorable
5/5

My son and I summited Mount Kilimanjaro this April with Mafie Adventures, and it was an experience we’ll never forget.

There were moments when the challenge felt like more than I was capable of, but thanks to our guides, Oliver and Matthew, they carried us through by encouraging us, and singing with us, and generally keeping our mindsets strong every step of the way. Their belief in us made all the difference.

What truly set this journey apart, though, was the entire team behind the scenes. The porters, the cook, the summit porter, and Mudi—who greeted us with meals morning and night—were all just as essential to our success. Their energy, kindness, and camaraderie created something special. The songs, the laughter, and the genuine friendships we formed along the way became as meaningful as reaching the summit itself.

If you’re considering taking on Kilimanjaro, you won’t find a better team than Mafie Adventures. They are authentic, caring, and full of heart—with a great sense of humor to match. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
