Great 3 day safari at Ruaha

5/5

Recently back from an excellent 3 day trip with my daughter to Ruaha National Park. I selected Kitonga based on their quote and on reviews here and it matched my expectations. All very well organised. Paul and Habakuki did everything they could to get us to the very varied wildlife in the park. Paul's excellent knowledge of the animals was supplemented by Habakuki's expertise in the birdlife. Habakuki's driving was superb too.

In summary, I'd heartily recommend Kitonga for your safari!

Expert and passionate

5/5

We have just completed an unforgettable safari and we cannot say enough about our guide, Paul. His experience and passion for nature were evident from the very first moment. Not only did Paul know every corner of the park, but he also showed a deep respect for the animals and their habitat. His ability to observe and identify wildlife was impressive; he guided us to numerous close encounters with different species, without ever interfering with their lives.

Along with him, our driver Habakuki demonstrated extraordinary skill in maneuvering the vehicle through the rough terrain, always ensuring our safety. His attention to detail and careful driving made us feel completely safe, allowing us to enjoy every moment of the safari.

Both were determined to provide us with an authentic experience, we would highly recommend this safari to anyone who wants to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature and live a unique adventure.
Thank you, Paul and Habakuki, for an experience that will always be in our hearts!

Dedicated to giving their clients the safari of their dreams

5/5

We contacted Kitonga Tours to set up a custom 5 day Ruaha safari dedicated to finding wild dogs. They were the only operator who really seemed to understand and align themselves to our mission. We communicated with Paul throughout booking and he was able to answer all of our detailed questions. We stayed in the very comfortable and excellent value tourist bandas, and Kitonga arranged a chef to come with us who prepared delicious meals.

In the weeks before we arrived the wild dogs had seemingly vanished, but Paul and driver/guide Habakuki put together a methodical plan based on their vast knowledge of Ruaha National Park. Paul's positive attitude helped us carry through long days of searching on some of the most infrequently visited areas, and Habakuki was a total professional who knew every track in the park. We spent 4 great days in the park and had sightings of lions, serval, hyena, foxes, and more all to ourselves - but the wild dogs eluded us. Finally on day 5 the planning was rewarded when we spent over 30 magical minutes watching a pack of 16 wild dogs that emerged across the river, right where Paul and Habakuki speculated they might be.

We would absolutely book with Kitonga Tours again and would recommend Kitonga (and Ruaha National Park) to all of our friends.

Human centered and caring about your dream come true!

5/5

I had 9 days camping safari in July with Kitonga. From the initial communication with the office and our guide for the organization, the interaction was super easy. The owner, Gerald, take the time to meet with us at our arrival to make sure that you are having the best time ever. Our guide, Issa, is exceptional, calm, reassuring, easy to talk to, very knowledgeable about wildlife and animals, and so respectful. I felt safe and well care of. He puts in place everything to make sure that my dream came true. He and Gerald organized a thoughtful surprise at the end of Mkomazie park visit to celebrate my birthday. I get heartache easily in a car when I don’t drive and the roads in Africa are very rough but I didn’t get any of that, thank you to the driving skills of Issa! The car is very well maintenance and comfortable, what is very important. I ate like a queen everyday with Victor, the chef who were accompanied us. They provide a lot of bottles of water and food, believe me you’ll never go hungry!! The planning of the trip is well done, no wasting time between park visits.
I find that company so human centered and caring about our needs. I had the time of my life! I will definitely return with Kitonga for my next trip and I recommend them all the way.

7 days Machame_Kilimanjaro: fantastic experience!

5/5

I did the Machame route for 7 days and it was a wonderful experience. From the initial communication with the office for the organization, the interaction was very easy. Once on the mountain I felt like family with the entire team. Many thanks to all of them: Elias, Hamisi, Bruno (porters, thank you for the enormous effort), Juma (fantastic cook who made me enjoy delicious meals), Masai (waiter, thank you for all your attention) and Victor (guide, thank you for your wonderful support and care). They all made me very happy and allowed me to share a very nice time with them during the hikes and upon arrival at the camps. I recommend Kitonga Tours and Safaris!
