Amazing Kili hike and 4 day safari
5/5

We had an amazing holiday with Afrishare - a combination of a 7 day Kilimanjaro hike for myself and my 16 year old son, and then a 4 day safari in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater for the whole family after my wife and other son had flown out to join us. In all of it Afrishare organised everything perfectly, from the fundamentals of the hike and the safari through to all the interconnecting transfers. We made the decision to go with a local Tanzanian company rather than some big international tour operator, and do not regret that decision at all. Right from day one, Ibrahim and team were very responsive (do they ever sleep?!) answering my endless questions and tweaking the itinerary so it was exactly as we wanted. They then delivered. Good value for us but also hopefully more money going into the local economy.
The Kili hike was the 7 day Machame route. The team taking us up were great, had all the required kit, and looked after us well. It was hard going but we made it to the summit and have amazing memories and sense of achievement.
The safari in the Serengeti was amazing - we saw the big 5, including 46 lions in 2-3 days, and a cheetah and cubs a few metres away. Through it all our guide Kazi, was fantastic - really knowledgeable about the animals and conservation more widely, also good fun (which is important when you have 4 full days together!).
I would definitely recommend Afrishare.

Fantastic trip of a lifetime
5/5

Afrishare provided us with a trip of a lifetime at a reasonable price. Our tour guide, Mosses, was outstanding. He was knowledgeable, a good driver, had good language skills, very friendly and a looked out for our safety at all times. Besides showing us the animals he provided cultural activities as well. I would highly recommend Afrishare.

Excellent Experience
5/5

I was part of a large group and the tour guides were excellent in ensuring that we all had a memorable experience. I have wanted to go on a safari for a long time and Afrishare made it a very positive and memorable experience. The meals they served were excellent with more than enough food. The vehicles were comfortable and made it easy to see the animals. And we did see an abundance of animals. This was an experience I won't forget.

Wonderful Experience in East Africa
5/5

I looked at SafariBookings because the site gave me the convenience of so many options -- all in one place. I got several quotes and worked with Afrishare to put my custom, private safari together. They were very flexible and offered a fair price. I took my son on what was - for us - a real 'bucket list' vacation: an 8-day safari to Kenya & Tanzania. From start to finish, Afrishare took care of everything. They were courteous, professional and flexible -- even making changes during our trip. Our drivers/guides (Robert in Kenya & Okuli in Tanzania) were everything we could have hoped for. They even taughts us a little Swahili and helped explain so many things about Africa beyond just the safari experience.
The game drives were simply amazing....from seeing hippos, zebras -- and literally being in the middle of tens of thousands of wildebeests during the Great Migration, this was a special trip indeed. I have fabulous photos of lions and elephants -- just a few feet from our safari vehicle! One day, there was a mix-up with lunch but Ibrahim and Okuli took us to a local African restaurant (no charge) and we got to eat like 'real Africans' -- it was an unplanned, but unforgettable experience. The Maasai Mara and the Serengeti were incredible experiences, but the smaller parks (Ngorongoro and Tarangire) were even more intimate and special with chances to see more animals closer than I'd thought possible. Note that the roads in the game reserves are all unpaved and can be extremely bumpy at times -- but that's part of the experience! Some of the days can be long! The accommodations were just as promised and very nice. The private experience was something that I previously would have pegged at twice the cost. You can check out other options, but my son and I were quite pleased with Afrishare. I strongly recommend them.

Excellent Safari and Lodge Accommodations. Mosses out guide was 10 stars, I will tour again!
5/5

We just finished our Luxury tour with Afrishare Treking and Safari. It was great from beginning to end. We absolutely loved our tour guide Mosses. He was so knowledgeable about every park and every animal. We saw the Big 5 plus many more birds and beautiful animals. Thank you to Ibrahim for setting everything up and Mosses we can’t wait to see you on our next adventure!

Friendly, responsive, professional, Afrishare made our family’s safari dreams a reality.
5/5

Our safari with Afrishare was nothing short of spectacular. I have done safaris in six other countries previously, and this one quickly rose to the top of my list. From customizing our itinerary to the bargain pricing, it was easy to choose. But we got so much out of it than we bargained for - comfortable accommodations, a top-notch guide (Rama!), and tons of animals (big 5 plus others). This was the first time for my sister and nephew to go on safari and I wanted to make sure they had the best experience possible - Afrishare delivered more than I could have asked for. So grateful for the kind, dedicated and professional staff at Afrishare for making it happen. Highly recommend booking with Afrishare for an exquisite experience. Thank you so much!

A safari with Afrishare will never disappoint.
5/5

I lead a volunteer trip to Tanzania every year and our groups have been booking safaris with Ibrah (Afrishare) for years. This year we were a group of 13 and needed two safari vehicles.
We love the professionalism, reliability, flexibility and attention to detail Afrishare puts forth. The safari was exciting and memorable, the vehicles were spotless and reliable, the tents and bedding were clean and adequate and the food was yummy!! (It was a little cold up at Ngorogoro crater so I would advise bringing warm clothing to sleep in.)
I strongly recommend Afrishare for your next safari experience!
Asante sana to Ibrah and his staff!

Trip of a life time
5/5


Our group of seven explored the Serengeti 3 days and the Ngorongoro crater 1. Our tour guide Moses was the reason for making this such a memorable trip. His experience and keen sense allowed us to be at the right place at the right time to see the most amazing things. Moses is very knowledgeable about the animals and the environment we were seeing, he answered all our many questions. We felt safe and had a lot of fun.
When we first booked this tour I imagined we would see a few big animals if we were lucky but this tour went way above my expectations. We saw many animals such as elephants, lions giraffes, hippos, hyenas, leopards, Chita, wildebeests, zebras and more. Every day we explored we saw something new that amazed us all.
We will talk about this trip for many years to come and recommend this, tour and guide, to everyone.
Thank you Moses for such a wonderful experience.

Moses was amazing.
5/5

Our group had an amazing experience on this safari. Our guide Moses made this adventure absolutely memorable. We were wowed by seeing the majestic animals in their natural habitat. Moses was excellent, he listened to what experiences we wanted to have and made them happen. He made us feel safe, he was very knowledgeable, kind and a lot of fun.
This safari was an amazing experience that we will talk about for years to come. We did successfully see the big 5.
Thank you and we would recommend this trip to anyone that enjoys nature and seeing beautiful creatures.
