They were a confident, positive, and knowledgeable crew, and made our experience fun and memorable
My son and I summited Mount Kilimanjaro this April with Mafie Adventures, and it was an experience we’ll never forget.
There were moments when the challenge felt like more than I was capable of, but thanks to our guides, Oliver and Matthew, they carried us through by encouraging us, and singing with us, and generally keeping our mindsets strong every step of the way. Their belief in us made all the difference.
What truly set this journey apart, though, was the entire team behind the scenes. The porters, the cook, the summit porter, and Mudi—who greeted us with meals morning and night—were all just as essential to our success. Their energy, kindness, and camaraderie created something special. The songs, the laughter, and the genuine friendships we formed along the way became as meaningful as reaching the summit itself.
If you’re considering taking on Kilimanjaro, you won’t find a better team than Mafie Adventures. They are authentic, caring, and full of heart—with a great sense of humor to match. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Amazing
We were two people on a 9-day safari to Amboseli, Ol Pejeta, Samburu, Lake Naivasha, and Masai Mara. We saw everything we had hoped for and more. The company and the guide appear very professional and experienced. The vehicle is in good condition, with comfortable seats for the long stretches between the parks.
The trip could not have been better.

An absolute trip of a lifetime with unforgettable memories that I will cherish forever!
A truly unforgettable experience! Mafie made my dream come true. I had been dreaming of climbing this mountain for a couple of years, and from the very beginning, Erastus was always available—day or night—to answer any questions or concerns I had about the trip.
He made everything clear, from pricing to the crew to choosing the right number of days, ensuring that my father and I had the best possible chance for a successful summit and an incredible experience. On top of that, the value for what we paid was exceptional—honestly far beyond what we expected for the level of service and care we received.
We were beyond satisfied with the entire team. With two guides, a cook, and nine porters, everyone felt like family by the end of the journey. We truly would not have made it to the summit without them.
Oliver and Matthew were outstanding—extremely knowledgeable about the mountain and always making the right decisions based on how we were feeling each day. The food was absolutely incredible, far exceeding our expectations. And the porters were amazing—always smiling, offering fist bumps as they passed us, and somehow arriving ahead of us at camp to have everything perfectly set up.
Honestly, the whole team felt superhuman with their strength, positivity, and constant support. Nothing was ever done halfway; it was the best hospitality I’ve ever experienced in my life.
If you’re considering climbing Kilimanjaro, going on safari, or doing any expedition in northern Tanzania, I would 1000000% recommend this company. Mafie is truly exceptional at what they do.

From Nile falls to Gorilla encounters: Uganda has it all!
Our journey through Uganda was one we will never forget. We traveled as a Dutch family with three children (17, 18, and 20) and did the 11-day safari. Uganda turned out to be a perfect destination for all of us.
For those going on safari for the first time, the Serengeti in Tanzania may still be the most obvious choice due to the huge numbers of wildlife and the famous migrations. But for those who have already experienced a safari, Uganda offers an unmatched diversity that makes traveling to this country so special.
From day one, we were immersed in a varied program that kept surprising us. We explored Lake Victoria, admired the impressive waterfalls of the Nile, and went on both jeep-, boat- and walking safaris, where we literally walked among rhinos, giraffes, buffaloes, hippos, and warthogs. On Lake Victoria, we searched for the prehistoric shoebill stork. Along the banks of the Nile, we saw countless hippos and crocodiles while elephants came to drink and during this boat safari we were taken to the immense Nile waterfalls, an unforgettable and breathtaking sight. The rich birdlife made a impression on us every single day.
During our visit to Murchison Falls National Park, where nature and wildlife come together beautifully, we saw the big five. Further south, we ventured into the rainforest for chimpanzee tracking and visited local coffee farmers and a vanilla plantation, where we learned more about the production process. We stayed in beautiful lodges, often built from wood with thatched roofs, idyllically located in the heart of nature. The service everywhere was excellent, and the meals were delicious: fresh, locally sourced products, carefully prepared.
The absolute highlight of the trip was the gorilla tracking. Accompanied by a ranger, we trekked into the rainforest and found no fewer than three gorilla families. We were allowed to spend an hour with one family—an experience that is hard to put into words. We stood face to face with the silverback, the female gorillas, and a playful baby gorilla.
What made our trip unforgettable was our guide, Allanie from Wild Uganda. From the moment he picked us up in the Toyota Land Cruiser until the final day—when he showed us Kampala and we ended with a dinner by the shores of Lake Victoria in Entebbe—everything felt perfectly arranged. His knowledge of the country, its culture, and its wildlife was impressive, and his enthusiasm was contagious. Thanks to him, we got to know Uganda in a wonderful way. Once again, our heartfelt thanks for that @Allanie!
The organization through Wild Uganda was excellent: everything was spot on, from the planning to the accommodations (thank you @Ernest). Uganda has captured our hearts, and as our safari guide Allanie said, we have only seen a small part of it. More than enough reason to return!

The best day of my trip
We had the absolute best day of our safari with Travel Africa Safari Agency! Our driver Alex and guide Omary made this experience truly unforgettable.
Both of them took wonderful care of us and made sure we were always safe, on time, and happy throughout the entire day. Their professionalism and kindness really stood out.
We were lucky enough to see an incredible variety of animals up close, including leopards, giraffes, elephants, baboons, monkeys, lions, and even warthogs (Pumbas). It felt surreal!
Omary’s knowledge was especially impressive — he had so much insight into every animal we encountered. We learned a lot thanks to him, which made the experience even more meaningful.
I would definitely recommend this company and would choose them again anytime!
