Makes dreams come true.
Our honeymoon in Tanzania and Zanzibar exceeded every expectation, and we owe so much of that incredible experience to Genius Kilimanjaro. From the moment we arrived until the very end of our trip, everything was flawlessly organized, including accommodation, transportation, Kilimanjaro trekking, the Serval Wildlife experience, waterfall adventures, and coffee farm visits.
What truly sets Genius Kilimanjaro apart is the personal involvement of the owner, Patrick. He is deeply committed to quality and excellence and stays actively involved to ensure every detail is perfect. His passion for creating unforgettable experiences is evident, and he genuinely cares about his guests and their satisfaction.
Our biggest goal was reaching the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, and Patrick’s team played a huge role in making that dream a reality. The guides, porters, and support staff were exceptional—professional, knowledgeable, encouraging, and incredibly attentive. Their motivation, expertise, and unwavering support helped us push through the challenging moments and successfully stand on the Roof of Africa. We could not have done it without them.
Every activity was thoughtfully planned, every transfer was seamless, and every member of the team made us feel safe, welcomed, and valued. Thanks to Genius Kilimanjaro, our honeymoon became a once-in-a-lifetime adventure filled with unforgettable memories.
If you are considering a trip to Tanzania or Zanzibar, look no further. I wholeheartedly recommend Genius Kilimanjaro to anyone seeking a professional, trustworthy, and truly outstanding tour company. Thank you, Patrick and the entire team, for giving us memories we will cherish forever. We cannot wait to come back!

An Unforgettable Kilimanjaro Experience with Genius Kilimanjaro
Our Kilimanjaro adventure with Genius Kilimanjaro Climbing was truly one of the best experiences of our lives. Reaching Stella Point was an unforgettable achievement, and we couldn’t have done it without the incredible crew.
From the guides and assistant guides to the porters and chef, every single member of the team went above and beyond to make sure we were safe, motivated, and comfortable throughout the trek. Their kindness, patience, encouragement, and constant smiles made even the toughest days enjoyable. The meals were fresh and delicious, the camp was always well organized, and we genuinely felt cared for every step of the journey.
A huge thank you to the entire Genius Kilimanjaro team for making our dream come true. If you’re looking for a professional, reliable, and supportive company to climb Kilimanjaro with, I wholeheartedly recommend them. They don’t just guide you to the summit—they make the entire journey unforgettable.

An unforgettable trip
Genius Kilimanjaro is a highly reliable travel agency.The accommodations provided are all very comfortable and the guide Suma is very experienced. We experienced an unforgettable safari together. The people we met were all very kind and friendly, helping each other. We were so happy to see hundreds of different animals. Tanzania is an amazing land and we miss there.

Fun, accommodating and professional
Patrick is a fantastic communicator and was in touch well before we arrived in Tanzania. Once there, the service was excellent. All our needs were met and we saw and authentic and extremely fun side on Tanzania. The trip up Mt. Kilimanjaro was well managed and had all the amenities we could ask for. The porters were so much fun and always had a smile on their faces.

Impossible not to recommend Genius for your Kilimanjaro climb!
From the very beginning, we felt like we had become part of a real family. We decided to take on the challenge as a family of five, and thanks to the entire Genius team, we were able to complete the climb safely while creating unforgettable memories.
From the porters, whose work is both incredibly demanding and inspiring, yet who always had a smile on their faces and a kind word to share, to the moments when they would even come back down to help carry our backpacks after reaching the next camp — their dedication was truly remarkable.
A special mention also goes to our chef, Eric, who prepared absolutely delicious and nourishing meals throughout the trek. Even at high altitude, when our appetites were not always at their best, his food was genuinely something to look forward to!
Our guides, Godifrey, Saimon and Gilbert were equally exceptional. Their professionalism, sense of responsibility, knowledge, attention and devotion, to detail made us feel safe and well looked after throughout the entire climb. We were especially impressed by the care they showed whenever one of us was feeling unwell. On one occasion, one of the guides even went back down with a member of our group who was struggling with altitude sickness to make sure he was safe.
It is truly thanks to their support, encouragement, motivation and optimism that we made it to the summit. They pushed us far beyond what we thought we were capable of and never stopped believing in us, even when the climb became very difficult.
And then there were all the songs they sang along the way — “Jambo Bwana” will probably be stuck in our heads forever! — as well as all the words of encouragement that pushed us far beyond what we thought we were capable of.
The Kilimanjaro climb was an incredible experience, and Genius played a huge part in making it so special.
A very special and heartfelt thank you to Godifrey, who organised everything with us from France and made us feel like a true rafiki from our very first exchanges. He was always there to support us, both during the good moments and the more difficult ones, and made the whole experience feel personal from the very beginning.
Asante Sana Genius, for everything. We strongly recommend this company, and we will definitely be back!

An Exceptional Guide Who Made Our Safari Truly Unforgettable
We had an absolutely amazing safari experience with Suma, and I honestly couldn’t recommend him enough.
Suma is extremely intelligent, experienced, hardworking, and genuinely passionate about what he does. Throughout the entire trip, his knowledge and judgment impressed us again and again. When we were watching the Great Migration or searching for the incredibly elusive leopards, he always seemed to know where to go and, more importantly, when to wait. Thanks to his excellent instincts and experience, he found us some truly incredible viewing spots.
The whole trip felt so complete that we left Tanzania with absolutely no regrets. We were lucky enough to see all of Africa’s Big Five, and I was especially excited to see cheetahs, which are my favorite animals. We saw them several times, including a mother with cubs — one of the most unforgettable moments of the entire trip.
What I appreciated most was that Suma never seemed to give up. He was always paying attention, constantly looking, and doing his best to give us the best possible experience. You could really feel how much effort and care he put into every single day.
This was our first safari in Tanzania, and Suma made it an unforgettable one. If we ever have the chance to return to Tanzania, we would absolutely choose Suma as our guide again without hesitation.
Thank you, Suma, for an incredible journey and so many unforgettable memories!

an unforgettable climbing thanks to Genius Kili Team
We were a 5 persons family group and we will never forget this journey on Kilimandjaro. Indeed, really, the organization by Genius Kilimandjaro was at the top. First, the climbing itself was always in safe condition. One of us got the altitude sickness and the team took care of him very well. We got the best advices to manage this climbing. The other services were always perfect. Particularly the food was incredible and fresh despite the mountain conditions of the climbing. The support of the team (morning coffee, the wash-up, the transport of bags,
Transport from and to the hotel...). Really, this team is efficient and warm. Congratulations to our guides and porters. We'll never forget this experience and I strongly recommend Genius Kilimandjaro for Kilimandjaro ascent.

comfortable and enjoyable experience.
Overall, we had a great experience. Our driver and guide were both very friendly and helpful, and they were basically always willing to accommodate our requests.
We were also pretty lucky with the wildlife sightings. We got to see the wildebeest crossing the river three times, as well as several incredible scenes of different animals feeding on a kill. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to witness an actual hunt, but the experience was still amazing.
One practical tip: remember to bring a mask, and wear clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty. There can be a lot of dust during the safari, and some stains are really difficult to wash out!
