We had a great experience during our stay in Arusha and climb to Kill. The whole team were there to help us and they made sure that we feel like we are home. Of course the highlight of our trip was the moment we reached summit Uhuru Peak, but everything else made it even more perfect - tasty food, beautiful nature, friendly guides full of knowledge, the whole organisation.
Thank you guys for everything and see you soon again.

Best Service on high Standards.
We booked the 1day gorilla trekking Tour over 1000 Hills Safari and are more than satisfied. Communication ran smoothly via whats App, we we're picked up from our hotel on time and our guide Paccy was amazing. We felt comfortable and safe at all times and every question was answered professionally.
We had an unforgettable day and can recommend this tour with 1000 Hills Safari to everyone!

Best ever experience
One of the memorable experience with Bashir as our expert guide. We were able to spot a rich variety of animals and birds at Ngorongoro. Bashir is the best driver and expert at navigating through the parks and finding animals. And also explain about lots of professional knowledge about wild life. It was very useful to understand more about animals. I hope to come again some day later.

Best Safari tour!
I choose this company because there was good review from Koreans. Now I know I had right choice :D Our tour guide Bashir is best driver and took care of us very well - find different types of animals, drive car to close to see them and safe. We had nice food and coffee time with nice view! Strongly recommend!!! Asante!

An experience like none other
My experience with them has been simply amazing. To put it into words is simply not enough because it surpassed every expectation anybody could have. The team and crew that put together our safari is brilliant and very humble especially when answering our queries. They were very friendly and welcoming and made us feel at home despite being thousands of miles away from home. The experience was absolutely worth it and a total worth of ur money. Our tour guide, Kelvin was also very knowledgable and always managed to educate us on the culture and the animals as well. He felt like a part of our family during our safari. He always managed to get us at the right spot at the right time for all the sightings. Without him and his brilliant knowledge and effort, getting all the big 5 would be a challenge. However due to his expertise, it was a breeze and very wonderfully done.

Absolutely amazing. Highly recommended
Our Kenya Safari week was incredible, a truly lifelong memorable experience. Meektrails, in particular Pauline, were very easy to work with when booking and making arrangements for our trip. The information from the beginning was clear- and turned out to be accurate by the end too. Our driver/ guide/ travel companion Lucas truly helped make the experience amazing. He was thoughtful, helpful and informative.Yes, we were lucky enough to experience the Big 5, but we saw and experienced so much more and we never felt rushed- Lucas made sure of that. The accommodation was as the website showed- amazing. I would and have 100% recommend Meektrail Safaris to everyone- and to request Lucas. Thanks for a fantastic bucket list experience Meektrails Team.

Excellent!
Safari with Mama Savanna was incredible, but most importantly it was our guide Edger who made this a trip of a lifetime! He was excellent at finding the big 5 and many more, we’d recommend asking for Edger as your safari guide specifically! We completed the 5 day safari which is 4 days total searching for wildlife, this felt the perfect amount of time. Each day we were up early and out, and were able to get the best photos and memories to last a life time. Thank you Edger/Mama Savanna!

I would rate the Safari with Imani Excursions 4/5, and the Kilimanjaro Climbing 5/5.
Overall, the travel experience was fantastic. Before the trip, I booked the Safari and Kilimanjaro Climbing with Imani Excursions. We discussed the travel arrangements, and the agency's responses were timely. After several revisions, we received a great plan and a decent quote.
In the first part of the trip, we went on the Safari. Since it was our first time in Tanzania, we visited all the major attractions, including Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti, and Manyara. If I were to give some advice, I would suggest focusing more time on Ngorongoro and Serengeti, as the animals you can see in the other places can also be found in these two. If there's anything that wasn't ideal about the Safari, it would be that too much time was spent traveling from one location to the next. If we could have stayed in one place for several days, we would have had more time to actually look for wild animals.
There were two disappointing aspects of the Safari. First, we didn't see any cheetahs despite our five-day Safari. This is why I made the above suggestion. We spent too much time traveling and not enough time actively searching for animals. The driver (also our guide) kept emphasizing that seeing cheetahs was a matter of luck which I totally understand, but many people we met on the way had seen more than one cheetah. Second, we missed a beautiful view along the Safari route. We hoped the driver could go back a short distance, which would have taken only 5 to 10 minutes, but he refused. This was quite upsetting for us.
Although there are some disappointing things during the Safari, I would rate our driver (also our guide), Baraka, 4/5, because he really worked hard. He drived the jeep for 6-10 hours per day, also he helped us to find animals on the way.
In the second part of the trip, we went on the Kilimanjaro Climbing. I would 120% recommend our guide Joshu and Eugen. We spent 8 days to finish the Lemosho Route. The team carried a watermelon, a pineapple and mangos for us. It is really amazing to have fruit on the very high altitude after getting exhausted after a whole-day-climbing. Also, the team carried the toilet for us, which is much cleaner than the public one, and we don't have to go a long distance every time to empty ourselves. At the summit day, the Joshu and Eugen carried backpacks for us, and two other porters carried hot water for drinking and oxygen for emergency. I would say without every thing the team did for us, it could be much more difficult for us to reach the peak. Along all the way from the beginning to the end, out guides kept introducing everything we met and cared about our health.
During the trip, Imani Excursions made two mistakes with us. One is that the agency charged us some fees twice accidentally. But after the communication, we got the refund very soon. The other is that the tip guide we received was wrong. This problem is also solved happily. Our guides kept letting us focus on our holiday and enjoy the climbing.
Again, 120% recommend out guide Joshu and Eugen. The team is awesome.
So overall, I would rate Imani Excursions 5/5, simply because it is a nice agency. They really tried to provide good service and hoped us to have wonderful experience. I would say no trip is perfect and it is common to meet some problems during the trip. It is quite important to keep communicating with the agency. Luckily, Image Excursions is such a nice one that we could easily communicate with and all problems are solved quickly and happily.
