Look no further!
I conducted research for weeks, contacting at least 100 safari tour operators over the span of a month and through all the hard work and research - I decided upon Kili Slope led by David. I have absolutely no regrets regarding this decision. The safari went without a hitch day by day. We thank David and Ziggy for this. For more details -- read on!
The price we were provided for the duration and private safari was extremely competitive, David was also very transparent regarding costs and one of the very few who accepted credit card as a method of deposit payment! David worked with us, we wanted Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire in a short time frame. David assured us he would construct an itinerary that worked... and that he did! He made sure our itinerary was custom to our wants and desires not what would be easy for him and his team -- and for that David, I thank you!
We requested mid range and to our surprised David upgraded us to a luxurious accommodation one night in the Serengeti as he was watching the rates and noticed a drop in price for the night we would be there, he booked us an incredible 5* luxurious accommodation -- at NO extra charge for us. This is only one of many examples of the owner at Kili Slope going above and beyond for his customers. ALL the mid range accommodations were amazing, great food, comfortable beds, immediately hot showers, full breakfasts, great views, great lunches to go - amazing dinners, I could go on!
Another example I must share, due to our short safari duration, every minute of our trip counted, on our way to Tarangire, we were to make a credit card payment at the park to proceed (as is expected with anyone going through the park). To my surprise, my financial institution blocked my credit card for use while in Tanzania, my financial institution was closed at the time as Arusha is 8 hours ahead. The time they would open would be in ~3 hours, stressed and frustrated - Ziggy contacted David. David, wanting us to make the most of the time allotted, went to his personal bank and conducted a bank transfer to the national park on our behalf. He did this without being asked by us, he did this on his own. We were then able to proceed immediately. We contacted our bank once opened and our card was finally good to use in Tanzania but David did not want us to bother with paying him back until we completed our safari, he wanted us to enjoy our safari - which we did.
You will not find too many people like David. I believe we lucked out deciding on this tour operator - but this is what research and dedicated time will do for you! We didn't decide to just look at the top 10 tour operators on tripadvisor, we didn't just google search "safari tour operators Tanzania" -- we went digging and found THIS GEM!!!!
The experience was incredible --- we will do another Tanzanian Safari in the future and will LOOK NO FURTHER THAN KILI SLOPE!!!
I could go on and on about how incredible the owner David is, but I need to add that not only was David outstanding, but our guide Ziggy? Out of this world! Please when you do the safari request Ziggy as your guide -- you will be so glad you did. He is a knowledgeable, kind and because we did so much driving, it's important to note he is a SAFE driver! He is extremely professional and punctual -- always early and ready for the day! Because of Ziggy we saw 4 out of the big 5 within a few hours and finally saw the Rhino at Ngorongoro! We saw so many animals, a hunt, so many prides -- all because of Ziggy!
We truly felt at peace with Ziggy present.
Please message me if you have any questions and again if you're looking for a tour operator -- stop your search, look no further and go with Kili slope. You will have ZERO regrets.

Amazing safari - worth every cent!
I can highly recommend doing a safari with „smile with us in Africa“. The communication before arrival was smooth. They were very helpful and flexible.
During our safari we experienced some extraordinary sceneries. Lake manyara, Serengeti and ngorogoro are very different and have a great variety of animals and nature. Also our driver did a very great job in getting us close to the animals.
The accommodations in which we stayed were very comfortable and cozy. The service of the lodges was extraordinary - staff was very friendly and thoughtful.
We can definitely recommend the 4days trip! The service we received was above our expectations and worth every cent!

Wonderful experience
We had this tour in December and it was really amazing: the safari was wonderful and we enjoyed a lot the entire experience. The tour guide, Mansoor, was very nice, professional and kind: he satisfied all our requests and, thanks to him, we were able to see all the big 5 and a lot of other animals! :) I highly recommend this tour with Mansoor and African Pangolin Safaris

Had great times with our guide Ibrahim
The guides were great, patient and always spotted animals in the safari where we would normally not spot them. They definitely lived up to expectations which made it an experience that I will never forget.

Afrishare is an extremely professional company and I had a unforgettable experience.
We had an amazing experience with Afrishare! We went on a day safari at the very famous Ngorongoro crater, took us around the local town to show us the best places to go, helped us out tremendously when working at the local Rau Primary school. Afrishare were extremely professional and would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience

Amazing Safari with SunUp Adventures
Johny and Chris from SunUp Adventures were fantastics in taking care of us during our trip to the Maasai Mara. We had some incredible sightings and great time in Kenya. This is our third time in the Mara and as always Johny has been nothing short of spectacular. Very attentive and going the extra mile to ensure we have a great time. Great service, tour very well organised and professional team. Thank you SunUp Adventures and recommend them to anyone going to Kenya.
