Unforgettable Lemosho Hike of Mt Kilimanjaro
I recently went on a 7 day hike of Lemosho route with Ibrah and Afrishare. We had an unbelievable experience that I will never forget. There was plenty of communication beforehand to make sure we were well prepared for what we would experience. I forget to get Daimox (I would highly recommend) before I arrived, so Ibrah graciously took me to a local pharmacy to acquire some. The hike itself was amazing. We actually ended up completing it in 5 days instead of the scheduled 7 due to us choosing to go on to the next camps a handful of times. The views were absolutely breathtaking and if you are a stargazer, you will not be disappointed. If it weren't for the cold at night, I could have sat outside and stared at the stars for hours. It was a very physically and mentally taxing hike, but the overall experience was more than worth it. Ibrah and his team were very attentive, and more than happy to accommodate with all reasonable requests (We brought along our own private portable toilet!). I am extremely grateful to both Ibrah and Afrishare for making this such an incredible experience and I would highly recommend others to reach out to them if you are looking for a Kili hike or safari.

What an amazing experience!!
We had a great experience with Afrishare! Everything was arranged perfectly, we didn’t need to worry about nothing but to enjoy the safari and see beautiful landscapes and rest in amazing hotels (try to stay at least one night in a tented camp for a unique experience - amazing starry sky with the wildlife noises throughout the night).
Special thanks to Jeff, our very skilled and professional driver in Kenya and to Okuli in Tanzania, who was very helpful and kind to us throughout our stay.

Experience of my life
We spent 6 days on safari and in contact with the culture of Tanzania, trusting Afrishare, and they were the most beautiful days of our lives so far. The most important part of this experience was our guide, Mosses, who from the first moment he picked us up from the airport until the last, did not stop taking care of our needs, our safety and of course, having fun. Although we had a car breakdown that delayed us for 3 hours, Mosses managed not to lose our day and to continue our program normally until the end. Thank you for the unforgettable experience and we hope to see you again soon!

Unreliable
From personal experience I recommend that you dont book with Afrishare. I don't want this to happen to anyone else. Be cautious when booking with this provider Afrishare as the company owner, Ibrahim is unfortunately running a really poor business.
We booked a five day tour with him, where 2 of the 5 days the car broke down. The point of a safari is to ensure that the car takes you comfortably from point A to point B. During the first breakdown we had to jump into another tour companies vehicle and join another family for one full day and then additionally on the second incident we had to spend half the day waiting for the car to be fixed. On top of all this the itinerary for the safari was poorly planned. We did not get enough time to appropriately see the national parks, for example at the Ndutu National Park we drove there, slept and left straight away the next morning. Not allowing us to explore for animals there. It merely felt like a stop over and notnwhat was sold to us to see animals. If he was an honest business, he would understand what he put us through, especially considering that this was an anniversary trip that we had organized together and provide us a reasonable compensation. However, he was only willing to compensate for a permit, not the two days we had lost.
Ibrahim went back and forth with us and made some absurd comments on his lack of responsibility for giving us a very old rusted and clearly unfunctional car. I advise to any future Safari clients. Please do not book with him!!
Lastly one clear point I want to make is that our guide, Deo, was absolutely phenomenal in providing us such an amazing service and making sure that we were comfortable even in these difficult situations! He did his very best to make sure that he could give us the best tour with the limited time given with the car situation. If it was not for Deo, we would have canceled the trip on our 3rd day when the car broke down again with 2 new issues.

Afrishare Beware!!
Our 5-day safari in Serengeti National Park was deeply disappointing due to serious vehicle issues that severely impacted the experience. Two out of the five days were lost to repeated car breakdowns. The vehicle provided was in poor condition, unsafe, and unreliable for long distances on safari terrain. Instead of exploring and viewing wildlife, we spent hours waiting for repairs.
This loss of time significantly reduced the value of the trip and caused unnecessary stress during what should have been a once-in-a-lifetime experience. A safari company should prioritize guest safety and dependable transport, especially in remote areas. Unfortunately, the condition of the vehicle and the repeated mechanical failures made this safari far below acceptable standards.
In addition, the Tour Operator of Afrishare Ibrahim, treated us with a lack of care. His exchange via messages was rude and disrespectful. His inability to show a level of understanding and care for what had happened was shocking.
The only shinning light was our guide Deo, who tried his very best to manage the situation and tried to ensure we experienced all the safari had to offer with the limited time.
