Not the best communication from the operator
The operator wasn’t great at communicating throughout the experience. Before the start of the trek, he had my arrival day wrong and I had to meet him shortly after I arrived (the night before the start of the trek as per his recommendation too). He only told me I was just on my own for the trip that night and no one else was on the tour.
The trek itself was good and the porters were lovely. They were friendly and very helpful. Hygiene is something that could definitely improved as they did provide a hot tub of water for washing but no soap or hand sanitizer at all throughout the trip. Also did not have napkins at all for meals.
Now for the walking part, the pace seemed good but there were times we were taking long breaks for no reason and I had to move around to stop from tightening up again. They were also obsessed with taking photos either their company banner in every single sign and user my phones the camera. They also did push to send the photos right away when all I wanted was to disconnect during the few days of trekking.
We made good pace and when I asked if I wanted to do 7 days instead of the 8 day Kenosha route instead, I said I enjoyed the outdoors so I wanted 8. Later it was decided without letting me know that we were doing 7. I didn’t know we were summiting until the afternoon before. They said it’s because of bad weather that they pushed it up but other people I met along the route said they had fine weather the next day. The only compensation I got for that was they paid for my accommodation the night we got back (which I had to push for).
We did summit and I do appreciate that. But after the summit. I had noticed I had frostbite in my fingers and asked for hot water for my frostbite (same as the washing water I’d usually get). I was told there was no water left and I’ll have to wait until the next camp.
Lastly in terms of tipping the operator told me one thing and the guide suggested another (which was waay off each other) it made for a really awkward tipping ceremony which again I only found out was occurring in the day it was happening.
As much as I enjoyed the trek. There were quite a few things that tainted and took away from the experience.

The best experience of my life with the best provider!
The tour with 21 Africa safaris was amazing. I loved the selection of the parks, the tour guide, the food, the transportation and the hotels. The guides are very professional and they know a lot about the ecosystem, you can ask plenty of questions. I would highly recommend this operator and definitely doing this tour with them has been the best experience of my life.

Couldn’t imagine doing a safari without the legends from 21AfricaSafari
We went on safari in Tanzania with 21AfricaSafari and I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough. From start to finish, everything was absolutely first class. The whole team was the friendliest group of people you could hope to meet – warm, welcoming, and always making sure everything ran smoothly.
They were incredibly knowledgeable, not only about the animals but also the roads and routes, which meant we got as close to the wildlife as I ever could have imagined. Thanks to them, we were able to see everything – lions, elephants, giraffes, you name it – in the most incredible way.
The organisation, schedule, food, and choice of hotels/camps were all spot on. Every detail was thought through and it made the experience seamless and unforgettable.
A special shout-out to my driver Moses, who I spent three out of our four days with – what a legend! His expertise, patience, and good humour made the trip even more memorable.
I genuinely couldn’t imagine doing a safari without 21AfricaSafari. If you’re thinking about booking one, look no further – you’ll be in the best hands

Amazing experience, great team.
We had a very memorable experience with 21Africa Safari. They were extremely professional and well organised. Would highly recommend choosing them as your providers for your safari experience.
Excellent tour operator for an unforgettable safari experience!
We truly enjoyed our safari tour operated by 21 Africa Safari! We were a group of 18 people travelling all together to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater and Tarangire national park. We had an amazing experience thanks to the excellent organisation, great itinerary and lovely ambiance. Even though we were a large group everyone at 21 Africa did their outmost to deliver a memorable time, which surpassed our expectations.
Our driver and guide Kevo (Kelvin) made our safari even more extraordinary by sharing his knowledge, his great sense of humour and ensuring we could get as close to the animals as possible!! Definitely recommend 21 Africa Safari for your next adventure!

A once-in-a-lifetime adventure!
Our group had an absolutely amazing experience with 21Africa Safari. From the very beginning, everything was exceptionally well organized — transfers, accommodations, and daily itineraries all ran seamlessly. The team struck the perfect balance between being highly professional and genuinely fun, which made the entire journey both smooth and memorable.
Seeing the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire was nothing short of breathtaking. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do, which made every moment feel special.
I can’t recommend 21Africa Safari enough for anyone looking for an authentic and well-crafted safari experience in Tanzania. We’ll be talking about this trip for years to come!

The best safari trip ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been in touch with Elieth from day 1 of making the bookings, around early in the year, April/May. Elieth has been super responsive and prepared us a safari tour to visit Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. He managed a group of 19 of us and he did it very smoothly with his team. The communication has been fantastic through out. He booked us accommodation as we had requested, and even better experience! The car arranged were so comfortable and with enough space for us all to be in and the food during the tour was so good! Very comforting and a lot!! We ate very well! I am a Tanzanian and I must say that this safari was very well planned, the experience that the team gave us was really really nice! And the drivers were super! Props to our driver Ally! He was fantastic! Got us all the angles 😎😎😎 we saw all the big 5 on the safari and were taken care of very well. We had amazing nights at the bonfire and beautiful memories on the last night when the team arranged a cake for us. This was so touching. We cherish every moment until today and would love to go again with 21Africa! Not to forget, the team had a wonderful surprise of printing our picture at the back of the car, (the honeymoon couple). This was super sweet. We miss the tour and the team! We will be back 💕

An amazing experience that was almost perfect, if your operator was better!
The tour was low-budget, so we weren’t expecting anything luxurious. Our “tour guide” was a great driver, but not much of a guide. He was not at all communicative and didn’t explain much. The food was good and the camping was fair. The facilities of the first two nights could have used some tlc. The restrooms and showers were VERY filthy. I am not one to complain, so I really mean what I say. It was surprising. In the end, though, the experience was incredible and we loved it. Those few things would have just added to it, instead of detracting.
