Overall a great safari experience
Kilimanjaro and safari
Kilimanjaro trip
July 2026
As we come to the end of an unforgettable journey through Kilimanjaro, the safari, and the beautiful island of Zanzibar, I would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who made this experience so special.
A huge thank you to Ahmed, HTS adventures whose meticulous planning, constant troubleshooting, and unwavering support throughout the trip ensured everything ran smoothly. Having you accompany us during the safari and Zanzibar, especially with such a large group, gave us all tremendous confidence and peace of mind.
Our deepest appreciation also goes to our wonderful mountain guides, Casper and Prosper, together with their incredible team of 99 angels—the porters, cooks, and support staff—whose dedication, encouragement, smiles, and tireless efforts helped us conquer Mount Kilimanjaro. Every step of our journey was made possible because of your hard work and care.
A sincere thank you to the safari team, especially the excellent drivers across the four safari vehicles under Ellie's guidance. Your professionalism, knowledge, patience, and enthusiasm made every game drive memorable and enjoyable.
Special thanks to our exceptional group leader, Prabhu, who successfully led our group of 28 people with calmness, positivity, and great organisation. Our appreciation also goes to Nanda and Priya, whose constant support, coordination, and attention to detail helped keep everything running seamlessly.
To every member of our group—from the UK, the USA, and India—thank you for making this more than just a holiday. It became a journey of friendship, shared laughter, mutual support, unforgettable memories, and lifelong bonds between families and friends. Whether celebrating summit success, encouraging each other through difficult moments, enjoying the incredible wildlife, or relaxing on the beaches of Zanzibar, every moment was richer because of all of you.
May this be just the beginning of many more adventures together.
Finally, my humble gratitude to Lord Hanuman for blessing us with strength, courage, protection, and a safe journey throughout, and for bringing us all home safely.
Until we meet again on another adventure...
Ciao! 🙏🏔️🦁🌴

Truly efficient
After a 8 day trek to Kilimanjaro, we went on a 2 day Safari with Hike talk stay adventures.
It has been one of my most memorable holiday. The staff paid attention to detail to the minute aspects, we had comfy safari rides, great food & a great stay at a beautiful resort for the night & above all had a sight of the most incredible wild animals.
Highly recommend hike talk stay adventure team!

Safety First
This feedback is particularly for the Safari, I have already posted feedback for the Kilimanjaro trek. The Safari experience was top class. The lodge that was selected was simply wonderful, I wish I could have one more day just to spend at the lodge. The Safari drivers were thoroughly professional and well versed but the biosphere obviously, they made sure we had a fantastic experience. I also really appreciated how they respected the animals and their space, I never felt we were making the animals uncomfortable, this was important for me. The advantage points and the sightings and the explanations of the Flora and Fauna as well as that of the Maasai tribe was excellent. Overall more than excellent value for money, I thoroughly recommend HTS Adventures.

Professional and knowledgeable.
We had a fantastic experience visiting Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. Ahmed from Hike Talk and Stay accompanied us and ensured we were well looked after. Our guides were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, and took great care of us throughout the safari.
Every aspect of the trip was thoughtfully organised, from the safari itself and the visit to a Maasai village to our overnight stay at Tiloma Lodge. The itinerary was very well planned, and everything ran smoothly.
The food and catering were exceptional, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We would highly recommend this safari experience to anyone looking for a well-organised, memorable, and truly special trip.

East or West, HTS is the best
We had a wonderful and awesome experience on our recent African adventures-hike up Kilimanjaro, a short Safari and a chilled out time in the beautiful island of Zanzibar, thanks to Hike, Talk, Stay Adventures❤️💥🤩
We were a group of 18 for the hike up Kilimanjaro, the group expanded to 29 for the latter part of our holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the holiday, and especially the trek up & down Kilimanjaro, thanks to the wonderful team at HTS who have been amazing throughout-we were looked after so well, the care was so very personalised and they went the extra-mile to make our hike enjoyable and memorable. The food was awesome and the entire team came together to cater to all our needs from the very start to the very end. Special thanks to Ahmed, Caspar, Prosper and the entire team at HTS. We would strongly recommend HTS for your adventures🤗🤩💥

Excellent and meticulous
We were a group of 27. All our needs were looked into. Excellent planning, well communicated with all of us, extremely reliable and great value for money. The tour operator Ahmed was very patient and travelled along with us. Despite many hiccups given the size of the group he kept his cool and smile on!!
Would thoroughly recommend hike talk stay
