Trekking to the summit with my husband
My dream of climbing Kilimanjaro was finally realized when my husband and I visited Tanzania on a tour organized by Tanzania Wildlife Adventures. We chose the Rongai route and were amazed by the breathtaking scenery. Patrick handled all the arrangements, making the process smooth and effortless. The trek was challenging, but we were grateful for the support from the amazing crew. We both successfully completed the climb and enjoyed celebrating our achievement together. I highly recommend Tanzania Wildlife Adventures as a reliable and professional Kilimanjaro tour operator.

Fantastic, professional and good value safari experience
Booked the safari directly myself and cannot fault the communications or arrangements. The price was also very competitive, particularly for a private safari (which I would strongly recommend). Everything worked like clockwork - they are rated No 1 in Arusha for a reason. The choice of accommodation was spot on with particular favourites being Heart and Soul Lodge and the Moyo tented camp. Our guide Augustine was very experienced and had a knack of getting us in the right place before anyone else. We saw the big five and the cats in particular were amazingly close while respecting the animals space. Do the Maasai tour, recognising that all the money they part from you is used for the collective good, not luxuries. Take lots of US$, it’s easier that way, although all the hotels did take cards (with banking fees on top).

Fabulous tour very well organised and run
Choosing a safari from so many operators can be bewildering. However the initially personalised itinerary and professional approach from Allan was outstanding. Booking was very easy and he was very flexible when our travel dates changed. Nothing was too much to ask, and therefore our arrival in Arusha after an 11 hour flight was very easy. We met Vincent our guide the following morning who was very friendly, knowledgeable and throughout the whole 5 days was always keen to try to show us everything he could. His intimate knowledge of the landscape, flora and fauna made for a very enjoyable trip, and spending evenings having dinner was also enjoyable. All the lodges were fabulous, food was great and lunch everyday on safari was great usually with a spectacular view. Lions walking by overnight in tented lodge was quite amazing. Managed to see big 5 and ugly 5!!
I would highly recommend Nkollo to anyone consider a safari in Tanzania, with Allan’s organisation and Vincent’s knowledge you cannot go wrong.

Easy booking, great wildlife, and a fantastic guide
We had an excellent experience with KingTomondo, both before and during our safari. Lisa was very responsive to all our requests in the planning stage. Payment was easy thanks to KingTomondo’s EU bank account, allowing a straightforward SEPA transfer.
Our itinerary took us from Nairobi to Amboseli, Taita Hills, and Tsavo East, ending in Diani for a few days of relaxation before heading home. We highly recommend this route — it offers a variety of parks with bearable travel times in between. All of Lisa’s accommodation recommendations were fantastic: Kibo Camp was luxurious and relaxing, while Saltlick Lodge and Manyatta Camp, though slightly lower in comfort, more than compensated with exceptional wildlife viewing directly from the terrace.
Our driver-guide, Mbaruk, was highly experienced and knowledgeable. He showed us a lot of great things, not only focussing on the big mammals, but also birdlife, trees etc.

The Mara is incredibly wonderful!
We had a wonderful two-night safari to the Masai Mara. Communication with Morris from Balu Travel was smooth, and after some adjustments due to availability, we stayed at Emayian Luxury Camp — an excellent choice with great food, all-inclusive cocktails, and outstanding staff.
Our driver, Kasaine, a local Maasai, is exceptionally well-connected with other drivers and rangers, and knows the Mara inside out. Thanks to his expertise, we experienced incredible sightings. Just half an hour after entering the park, we were five meters from a pride of lions. By the end of our first afternoon, we had seen all of the Big Five and quite a bit more.
The next morning, we left before sunrise for a full-day game drive. Kasaine timed everything perfectly, allowing us to enjoy remarkable locations and wildlife with little or no other vehicles around.

I travelled with my husband to Zanzibar for a romantic getaway planned by Makisala Safaris, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The team arranged everything seamlessly from airport transfers and a charming beachfront hotel to spice farm and Stone Town tours so all we had to do was relax and enjoy. We spent our days strolling along white-sand beaches, exploring historic streets, tasting fresh seafood, and watching sunsets over the Indian Ocean. Every detail was handled with care, making our holiday stress-free and unforgettable, and we can’t wait to return to Tanzania with Makisala Safaris!

Excellent Experience
We booked Axis through a friends recommendation and it didn’t disappoint.
Excellent communication with Axis before settled our nerves.
James, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the animals and nothing was too much for him. He knows the parks like the back of his hand and we managed to see everything in the time we had.
We would also recommend the hot air balloon if you get chance, it really made our trip special.

An unforgettable experience with Kilimanjaro adventure safari club!
Our group of twelve booked a seven-day safari with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club, and it was nothing short of amazing from start to finish. Organizing a group our size can be challenging, but the team was incredibly accommodating, patient, and flexible with all our needs. This made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable for everyone.
A special shoutout to Mariam, who went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of during our booking. From coordinating logistics to ensuring everything was accounted for. She was responsive, kind, and always helpful.
Our guides, Eli and Denis, were also great throughout then seven day trip. Their professionalism, knowledge of the parks and wildlife, and enthusiasm made every game drive exciting. They had an amazing ability to spot animals, share insights, and keep the group engaged.
The accommodation and food throughout the safari exceeded expectations. Each lodge and camp was comfortable, and offered great hospitality and delicious meals.
Overall, I couldn’t recommend Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club enough. The value for the experience was amazing. The combination of outstanding service, friendly staff, and unforgettable experiences made this a trip of a lifetime. Thank you to Mariam, Eli, Denis, the owner, Aenea, and the whole team for making it so special!

Friendly
Our pickup driver Carson was very friendly, informative and warm. He did share some history, the nice african songs, and the do’s and dont’s when you are in Johannesburg, which are very useful to us as a first timer in Africa. Hope our path will cross again in the future!

It was so nice and memorable to us
I went on safari with my wife through Easy Tour Safari. The guide knew everything! He drove us well, he explained everything about the animals. He made sure that we were safe. We enjoyed his company and we enjoyed the safari.
We wish to bring our bigger family next time.
