Great experience - great guide.
Climbing Mount Meru was incredible from start to finish. The entire team worked so hard to make the trek safe, comfortable, and enjoyable. The porters deserve huge praise — they carried heavy loads with such skill and always greeted us with smiles and encouragement, which kept morale high on the tougher stretches of the trail.
That said, special recognition has to go to our main guide, Hussein. He was absolutely outstanding. Hussein combined deep knowledge of the mountain with genuine care for every member of the group. He set a perfect pace, checked on us constantly, and made sure we understood what to expect each day. His calm reassurance during the steep summit push gave us the confidence to keep going, and thanks to him, we all made it to the top safely.
Hussein also shared so much about the park’s wildlife, geology, and history, which turned the climb into more than just a physical challenge — it was a learning experience too. His professionalism and warmth really set this trek apart.
If you’re considering climbing Mount Meru, I couldn’t recommend this team enough. The porters are incredible, and with Hussein leading the way, you’ll be in the very best hands. Five stars without hesitation!

They skipped the last game drive day 😢😢😢
I really enjoyed the lodgings that we stayed in for the tour, really beautiful and relaxing. However, we were meant to get 3 game drives. On the last day we just drove out of the park without the final game drive which was really disappointing

Organised everything and looked after us well
Norman was a great owner/operator of the safari and organised everything as well as looked after us for both our outward and inbound drive from and to Joburg. He booked our stay the Kruger Gate Hotel and organised our Safaris with SANParks and one of his freelance tour guides. Although at times it was a bit confusing who our guide would be for the day as plans did change along the way, we always felt safe and well looked after and Norman himself was warm and friendly.

Wonderful unforgettable experience
We had an amazing experience with our tour guide, Bloblo, who went above and beyond to make our adventure unforgettable! Not only did we see a wide variety of animals, but Bloblo also handled all my personal requests flawlessly. Communication was clear and professional throughout, and the company proved to be incredibly reliable. Highly recommended!

Enjoy Tanzania and become friends!
Great guy, great guide, great experience.
We went three friends with Renga and his crew. We reached the top of mount kilimanjaro, but what is more important, we really enjoyed the trip and that was because they made a great effort to ensure that.
I totally recommend to hire Wings of Africa.
Asante sana!

Very fair and to the point
I took 5 day budget safari and overall was very satisfied in the end. A lot of safari experience relies on the tourguide/driver and we were lucky to get very experienced and professional one (Tom). We saw big 5 (except for leopard) and ugly 5 (except from stork). plus a lot of other wildlife. Accomodation was not priority for me, so I took budget option, which included quite run-down hotels/camp with limited food options but very fair for the price paid. If you want at least 4-star hotel experience, take more expensive options.

All in all, highly recommended!
Our guides and drivers were especially helpful and kind, always bringing us safely from place to place—and always on time! We were able to see and, above all, learn so much—whether in the village, the park, or the bush. It was truly enriching.
The lodges were beautiful as well, and the food was particularly good at the Selous Kinga Lodge. From the very beginning, everything was well-organized and we felt completely comfortable. We also laughed a lot and had a wonderful time.
We would also like to encourage future travelers to truly appreciate the hard work of everyone involved—and to show their gratitude by leaving a tip!
Special ASANTE to Paul, Emil and Shadrak
