Exceptional Experience with Nafika Tours!
We had the most incredible experience with Nafika Tour, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, everything was organized with the utmost professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for us as travelers.
We booked a private tour for the 4 of us.
Kilimanjaro – Lemosho Route
We climbed Kilimanjaro with Nafika Tour via the Lemosho Route (7 days up + 1 day down), which is known for its excellent acclimatization and high success rate. The entire trek was perfectly organized:
• Knowledgeable, reliable, and caring guides who were always attentive to our needs.
• Everything included – transfers, tents, sleeping bags, mattresses, delicious and abundant meals to keep us full of energy.
• The climb itself was challenging but never technical, and the support from the team made it truly achievable.
Safari
After the climb, we enjoyed a 5-day safari with Nafika. Our driver was outstanding – professional, friendly, and with an impressive knowledge of wildlife. The accommodations were very good overall, with just one older hotel in Moshi that was still perfectly acceptable for a transit night.
Zanzibar
We ended our journey in Zanzibar, where we booked activities with local guides (not through Nafika). Here we faced a few small inconveniences, which actually made us appreciate Nafika’s flawless organization and reliability even more.
Why Nafika Tour Stands Out
• Absolutely reliable in every situation.
• Punctual, serious, and flexible – they always found solutions quickly when we needed something extra.
• Excellent value for money compared to other agencies, without compromising on quality. This trip exceeded our expectations in every way. If you are considering climbing Kilimanjaro or exploring Tanzania, Nafika Tour is the agency you can trust completely.
Thank you Nafika for giving us an unforgettable adventure – we will always carry these memories in our hearts!
Professional and luxurious way to get to the top — and reasonable too
We climbed Kili with Nafika as a family of five (our 'kids' are 17, 21 and 22) and had a superb experience all the way (even with very cold and cloudy summit). Nafika are highly professional and it was a luxurious experience. Camps were always set up in the best spots, the food was amazing and plentiful and the guides were encouraging, fun and knowledgeable -- and caring/super safe with daily health checks for everyone (oxygen levels, blood pressure etc). I could not recommend them more highly. And they were great value for money.
Professional, exceptional and brilliant
I recently summited Kilimanjaro with Nafika, and the experience was outstanding. Elias was highly responsive from the point of booking and in relation to the climb, the whole team—ranging from porters to our guides, especially Meshack and Erfata - were exceptional. Their professionalism, experience, and focus on our wellbeing ensured we reached the top safely. Highly organized, caring, and dedicated, Nafika truly made this adventure unforgettable.

Really excellent Safari
Myself and my friend had a really fantastic Safari experience with Nafika tours. The whole thing was organised so professionally and all the communication and planning for the trip was excellent. Our Safari guide Octavian was just brilliant - he had an amazing knowledge of all the animals and environment and he did a really fantastic job of managing to deliver an amazing number of animal sightings - we saw so many animals and he always managed to be in exactly the right place at the right time. The accommodation and service at all the places we stayed was also fabulous. So glad I booked with Nafika tours ten out of ten for me and fantastic value for money.

Amazing Service, Staff, Support, and Coordination from the beginning to the end.
We found Nafika through a reply on this website for a 7-day Lemosho route. We didn't know much about it.
However, what we experienced was phenomenal hospitality.
They're competitively priced, and have some of the best coordinated staff (as we witnessed by looking at other tours along the way).
We were very pleased by the level of service (quality of food, camp set up [good tents], ability to adapt to our needs, etc).
Our lead guide, Mescaki, was very practical and supportive.
I had my struggles along the way, and he provided reassurance and encouragement as well as active medical check-ins, and helped us finally summit and descend. There were also many members of staff (11 in total for the 2 of us), that were instrumental in our entire trek.
When selecting a provider, do not underestimate the importance of how the trek is paced, and how they can accommodate to your needs - it is absolutely critical.
The founder, Elias, has done a great job in putting together a quality team.
We found Nafika by pure luck, and given we're normally picky, I wouldn't hesitate to book them again and recommend them to friends & family (by the way we were vegetarian, and never felt short of options)

We cannot not recommend Nafika highly enough. Professional and fun. Look no further.
Our family of 5 trekked to the top of Kili with Nafika and had a memorable experience even with a cold and cloudy summit day. Elias made the pre-voyage organisation easy. Our guides Aloyise, Max and Frank were kind, fun knowledgeable - they were concerned for our health and made the trek easy and enjoyable. Arnold our cook was a star, even magically baking a cake for my wife's birthday even though he only learned about it the morning of.
Nafika is highly professional, locally owned and makes the trek a luxurious experience. The team ensured our camps were always set up in the best spots, that we never went hungry and always felt safe and cared for including the daily health checks for everyone (oxygen levels, blood pressure etc) and private toilet.

Fantastic traveling with Nafika
Highly recommended!!! Choosing Nafika was the right decision.
At a very fair price, Nafika provided me with a very luxurious pool hotel.
All the people here in climbing are the best and helpful. Experienced guides, skilled cooks and considerate entourage.
All this makes climbing Kilimanjaro a real treat.
It is worth noting that Elias is very helpful. Elias took care of me as a foreign visitor. This made my visit to Moshi town smooth and enjoyable. I really appreciate it.
Safe, reliable and true friend Nafika!

Very detailed Nafika tour
Nafika Tours quickly modified our safari itinerary to meet our needs.
The accommodations we booked were of excellent quality and comfortable, and the included meals were excellent.
Our guides were courteous and friendly, and they consistently helped us have a positive experience.
We look forward to working with Nafika Tours again on our next trip to the Serengeti.
Thank you for your help.

NafiKa Tours made every moment unforgettable.
I joined NafiKa Tours for a safari in the Serengeti. It was nothing short of unforgettable. Despite the long hours of driving, our guide remained patient, warm, and full of knowledge. He pointed out the geography of the Serengeti and helped us observe the incredible wildlife with care. Whether it was handing me a telescope to catch sight of distant animals, or showing me illustrations from his guidebook to explain species and their behaviors, he made sure this wasn’t just sightseeing—it was a deep, meaningful encounter with nature.

Highly recommend
Climbing Kilimanjaro with Nafika Tours was one of the best experiences of my life. From start to finish, everything was well organized and handled with great professionalism. The food on the mountain was not only delicious but also far beyond my expectations — every meal gave us the strength we needed for each day’s climb.
A special thanks to Elias, who managed all the arrangements smoothly and was always quick to respond to our questions before the trip. During the climb, our main guide Innocent was absolutely outstanding. His experience, encouragement, and constant attention to our well-being played a huge role in our successful summit. Along with the whole team of porters and staff, they were always cheerful, supportive, and truly went above and beyond to make sure we were safe and comfortable.
Thanks to Nafika Tours and their wonderful team, I was able to achieve my dream of standing on the roof of Africa. It was not just a climb, but an unforgettable journey full of warmth, care, and incredible memories.
I wholeheartedly recommend Nafika Tours to anyone planning to climb Kilimanjaro — they made this African adventure truly special!
