Safari and Kilimanjaro in Tanzania
Traveling to Tanzania for my 45th birthday was the most meaningful way I could have celebrated. I went with two close friends from Helsinki, and from the moment we arrived, the trip felt special. We combined Kilimanjaro with a safari, and even traveling during the rainy season only added to the adventure.
Tanzania Wildlife Adventures organized everything perfectly. Our safari guide Hamisi was calm, knowledgeable, and made us feel safe and excited every day. Driving through dramatic landscapes, muddy roads, and open plains, we saw elephants, buffalo, huge herds of wildebeest, and predators never far away. Every day felt different and unforgettable.
Climbing Kilimanjaro together was challenging and emotional, and reaching that goal at 45 felt incredibly empowering. We had an excellent crew of 2 guides; Joseph and Musa, assisted by 9 porters and cook. In the evenings, we enjoyed the camping experience, excellent food, and warm service, which made the experience even more memorable.
Celebrating my birthday in Tanzania was something I will always treasure. It was not just a trip, but a reminder to keep choosing adventure.

Reliable and service oriented travel partner
I booked two safari tours with Toto Tembo. During the first tour to Masai Mara-Naivasha-Nakuru some issues appeared (seating, vehicle, the guide, the meals). It felt unpleasant and I reached out to my contact persons Emmilia and Esther about the issues.
They are very committed, professional, friendly and 100% available for occurring questions even during the game drives with directly tackling issues I pointed out.
So you don't have to wait long for support which I think is very important when you're traveling in a foreign country and be on safari.
Special requests like my meal preferences, as I'm vegetarian, have been taken seriously and been tried to execute as best as possible.
For the second tour to Amboseli, Toto Tembo made up for the previous inconveniences I faced during the first tour. I saw many animals, also the big 5, and experienced many different landscapes and facets of Kenya.
Some facts in short that I found important during my travel:
Vehicle provided: modern, very clean, comfy and well equipped (chargers, box for water). I want to point out that the safety belts were working properly which isn't granted with every vehicle in Kenya or safari agency!
My guide: friendly and calm guy, good and safe driver, very knowledgeable during the safaris. I loved his company and infos during our trip. Very much appreciated Lenards calm warm personality!
The schedule: Pick up was always punctual, so no long waiting but the schedule is very tight. Safari means you be in the vehicle long hours, roads can be rough and very bumpy, getting up early and being in bed late.
You should plan your game drives and days to stay at a certain lodge or camp accordingly or ask for advice from Toto Tembo to get the best experience based on your own energy levels and preference. This will shape the whole safari experience so you want to think about that and not just about how many game drives you can fit in one day. -Trust me!
Accommodation:
Check the accommodation yourself in advance so you can tell Toto Tembo where you like to be booked in. I personally think Sopa Lodges deliver a very good experience and I especially loved the variety and high quality food + they have nice pools and big inside fire places. The lodge itself to me would be worth a one day stay to just relax and enjoy nature, the views and the many amenities.
Toto Tembo as safari agency:
I really appreciate that they are so serious about delivering a pleasant and high quality experience and also take accountability when things go wrong. Because of this I always would recommend and book with them again. I made the experience that they are a trustworthy and professional travel partner.
Thanks a lot for all the memories I could make and your friendly and open ways of being!
Side note: as a solo traveling white woman I always felt safe and taken care of during my trips.

Astonishing
Lovely time spent with Robin, a very good driver and animal whisperer. We saw lots of animals thanks to Robins instinct. We are very Lucky and Happy to book Jungle Roam and our driver. I recommend everybody to do the tour with them.
