Good but problem with payment and price
We booked in 2019 with them for a safari in Tanzania and everything was perfect. This time, it was for a safari in Kenya. The safari was perfect too, but we deal the price severals months before the departure and 2 weeks before the safari, they said that we will need to pay more money. They said it was because of troubles with the municipal council and the payment of taxes. They were supposed to return the extra money we paid, but since now we lost 1400$. I don't recommend Kiliholidays since you will not be sure the price you will pay at the end.
Good service with cost effective price
Review of Tours by Locals (Kiliholidays)
I recently had the pleasure of booking a tour through Tours by Locals (also known as Kiliholidays), and I must say, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish.
From the outset, the communication with our local guide was excellent. They reached out promptly after booking to discuss our preferences and tailor the tour to our interests. They were responsive to all our questions, which made us feel valued and excited about the upcoming experience.
The level of service we received during the tour was top-notch. Our guide was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly personable. They went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves, providing insights and stories that enriched our understanding of the locations we visited. It felt more like exploring with a friend than a typical guided tour.
In terms of value for money, I found the pricing to be quite reasonable given the personalized nature of the tour. The small group size allowed for a more intimate experience. Additionally, the insights and local tips shared by our guide made the cost worthwhile.
The tour was well-organized and reliable. Our guide arrived on time and had all the necessary arrangements in place, which allowed us to focus on enjoying the day without worrying about logistics. This reliability is crucial, especially when traveling to new places.
Overall, I highly recommend Tours by Locals (Kiliholidays) for anyone looking to enhance their travel experience with personalized tours. The combination of excellent communication, outstanding service, great value, and reliability made for a memorable adventure. I can’t wait to book my next tour with them!
great

Professional
The guide and the other team members are very helpful and they are experienced with this whole routine , I’d say this meru mountain task it’s a pretty dangerous task but our guide team helped a lot they are encouraging and professional and very helping . Our chef also made a soup . Only one point is the rent equipment sleep bag have wadudu made 3 of us get allergic at skin . I’m highly recommend this to ur journey of meru .
Breach of trust and stole our money
We had excellent service from the guide and the supervisor on site but sadly we add a really bad experience with Mack. We add to pay 1400$ US more on site because if we did not our safari could not happen and we already paid a deposit and the plane ticket. It was suppose to be refund by the end of the trip. We did trust Mack because we already did a safari in 2019 and we as a great Experience but this time we happen to be stoled 1400$ us so we really dont recommend this company
