Climbed Kili
4/5

On very short notice World Tours Safari was able to arrange for my trip up Kilimanjaro. Richard was very accommodating and helpful. I had a great hike up (Coca Cola trail) and have since recommended Kili and World Tours Tanzania to my family.

One piece of advice: WTT should be clearer about the appropriate tipping amount up front.

Kilimanjaro via Lemosho and safari to Serengeti and Ngorogoro Crater
4/5

Overall Richard and his staff were reliable, punctual, honest and fun. In business dealings he was very congenial and totally fair and transparent. Their drivers were safe - very important in Tanzania! The guides were knowledgeable, spoke English well and the food was great. The value for money was terrific.

We had some issues with tent zippers that were worn. He promised they were getting new equipment. I would also advise that you pay for them to bring along a Gamow bag (portable compression sac for altitude illness). Could spare you a dodgy descent in the dark and so worth the money (I'm an emergency physician and have witnessed/cared for people with altitude illness, I would not climb without a bag).

Kilmanjaro via Lemosho Route and safari with World Tours and Safaris Tanzania
4/5

We booked our climbing trip and safari from World Tours and Safaris Tanzania last August. All details were smoothly agreed by emails. And almost everything went according to plans.

Kilmanjaro was spectacular. We had booked a seven day trek but it should have been eight days. We both are in our late 60's and they knew it. Perhaps they could have warned us about the tightness of our timetable.

The five day joining safari was marvellous. Lake Manyara was quite empty as expected but Serengeti was full of animals. Finest moment was when we found a sausage tree were three leopards were eating their prey (antelope). Ngorongoro was, as expected, lively. We saw rhino, buffaloes, eland, mating lion, and much much more.

The arrangements were almost perfect and the abundance of animals compensated for few inconveniences in the safari. We had two tire punctures due to worn out tires and secondly the Jeep was overbooked.

Altogether everything went smoothly, we were picked up at Kilimanjaro International Airport when our plane arrived late during night and correspondingly dropped there when we left Tanzania.

Tanzania was amazing, the animals inspiring and Richard was flexible and accomodating - a good trip.
4/5

We were a bit nervous about our trip to Ngorongoro and the Serengeti as it was tacked onto a conference we were attending in Arusha and Olduvai Gorge - Richard was very flexible about this and about waiting for me to finish some interviewing in the Serengeti even though his permit was close to running out and of course, amazing elephants blocked our road out!

I'd advise warm clothes for the Ngorongoro bit as we weren't terribly well prepared but the team were great and we saw more animals than we could have hoped for.
