7-day Kilimanjaro climb and 7-day safari with Tanzania Classic Tours
1.) General information
We chose Tanzania Classic Tours as our tour operator because of the good pricing and the trustful contact with Leo, the company‘s managing director. He is very responsive to emails, WhatsApp, and calls. With his support we arranged an individual trip schedule tailored to our needs and expectations. Even while on the trip he made every effort to check our satisfaction and adjust the trip according to spontaneous requests of ours.
2.) Mount Kilimanjaro climb
The four of us were accompanied by a great team of locals (2 mountain guides, 2 cooks and 13 porters). Every individual person we became friends with. The food provided was exceptional with a minimum of 3-courses for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We loved our tour guides, who were very experienced with deep knowledge if nature, animals and culture. Both of them as well as the porters guided and supported us altruistically whenever we needed help. Without them we probably would not have made it to the summit.
3.) Safari
The safari was led by a safari guide, who drove a comfortable Toyota LandCruiser with an openable roof, a fridge for cool drinks and power strips to charge our phones and cameras. He was super friendly and approachable, took every joke and shared his deep knowledge of the animals and the vegetation that crossed our paths. The cook, who took care of our culinary well-being, fulfilled all our wishes regarding special diets and meal preferences.
We enjoyed our time in Tanzania very much and would always choose and recommend Tanzania Classic Tours again. The service during Kilimanjaro climb and safari exceeded our expectations in almost every aspect.
Thanks Leo and team! See you next time in Tanzania!

Safaris? Tanzania must-read Classic Tours review.
INTRO: Marvelous 4-day affair with nature. I doubt that there is another outfit out there, capable of topping what Tanzania Classic Tours can and I'm sure delivers on daily basis!
THE TEAM: Leo - knowledgeable and extremely tanacious guide and driver, who will not rest until he puts a check mark next to every entry on his daily wildlife viewing list. Bariki - back up driver, equally expirienced guide, story teller, entertainment and chow supervisor. My wife - fine lady appreciating every moment of our trip twice, but not slowing us down. Julia - back seat driver, celebrating her Sweet Sixteen, safari theme. Me, a guy who's responsible for this review... "the shooter".
PRO-PHOTO GEAR: The only two cameras I used, (please see pictures below) were: iPhone 12 and 13Pro, no "long lenses". It's an important fact, so you can get a sense of proximity to animals.
Julia kept taking FujiInsta prints.
I CUT TO THE CHASE NOW: There's no point in writing about Africa's Big 5 and listing species, as we simply saw it all. Leo's tanacious nature came to play here.
SURPRISES: One... the accommodation, full blown royal treatment at the camp. Heated tent, hot water, shiwer, bathrobes, etc. Wifi capable of FaceTime calls. Light sleepers out there - not a single generator sound, solar panels throughout the compound. Please see pictures for details.
EXTRAS: On the way back, a must see/stop - Maasai Village visit. We couldn't ask for a more momorable welcome ceremony. Pics included.
SUMMING UP:... you won't be disappointed!
TECHNICAL SPECS:
- We flew into and out of Kilimangaro Airport, taking a short break from vacation on Zanzibar. While visiting from US, we were already well rested, jetlag was not an issue.
- Visited: Serengeti and Ngorongoro National Parks.
- Vehicle: Toyota Landcruiser It seats 7 vs. only 3 of us. The numer of occupants plays a role as a cost factor.
- Keep in mind that Suenos Camp, where we stayed, is one of many in Serengeti, make sure to ask about details and plan ahead in case you have any specific needs.

Experience for a lifetime
We are thrilled with what and how Tanzanian Classic Tours was able to make our first Tanzanian experience memorable. Our trip consisted of a seven-day Kilimanjaro trek (Macchame route) and a five-day safari (Tarangire, Ngorongoro Park and Crater, Serengeti, Lake Manyara, Maasai village). We were like the main actors of a movie, where we could focus on what was most important to us, while the organization of the trips, from preparations to saying goodbye at the airport, was done professionally - with personal approach, smoothly, unobtrusively, extremely friendly, more than agreed. It seemed that Leonard and Bariki also had the most powerful agreement to show us Kilimanjaro in excellent weather and more than 30 different species of animals. (Big 5 included).
By the end of the trip, we were like one big family that we could and can completely trust in any situation. We will miss the Kilimanjaro trek team - guides Batch and Fred, chef Leopardi for his wonderful food flavors, waiter Nelson for his daily care and especially for surprising us with a welcome and refreshing drink halfway down the Uhuru summit. Also everyone else who made our arrival at Uhuru Peak a real experience.
Bariki and Aron furnished the safari with their versatile and thorough knowledge, while also being our eyes and ears in this great Garden of Eden.
The equipment recommended and provided to us by Tanzania Classic Tours was very high quality. The accommodations on safari exceeded our expectations as did the safari lunches that Bariki and Aaron provided daily. Thank you, guy's!
Tanzania Classic Tours' care did not end at Kilimanjaro Airport. Showing the quality of the company's service continued with Dares Salaam hotel recommendations, with booking options and transfer arrangements.
The feeling is that we have been part of a family outing in wonderful Tanzania, in which the main focus is on the guests. The biggest respect and bow to Tanzania Classic Tours, who made our trip unforgettable and unique! Thanks to you, "pole-pole" and "hakuna matata" have taken on a whole new meaning! Rating 10 out of 10 with deeply personal recommendations to use the services of Tanzania Classic Tours.
We have traveled a lot, that' s why we can safely say that the value for money offered by Tanzanian Classic Tours is hard to beat.
See you next time!
Assante!

Safari with friends
After an incredible 9 day Kilimanjaro adventure we went for another 3 day Safari with Leonard & team.
Like the days before it was all very well organized and exceeded our expectations. We saw all the animals cause Leo and team knew all the related spots. It was a fun adventure and we can only recommend Tanzania Classic Tours.

Quality time with friends
Based on a personal recommendation I booked our Kilimanjaro climb with Leonard & team. From the first contact back in Germany until we said good bye with big hugs Tanzgruppe airport it was such a lovely, friendly and professional experience. I always felt the trust between us, I always felt safe, and I felt the huge knowledge and experience of Leo & team.
We went 9 days on the Lemosho route, which was perfectly chosen so we could adapt to the environment quite well. The whole team (10 porter + 2 guides) was just incredible. We were dancing together, we laughed together, and wenigstens felt like one big family. That’s it what makes the difference for me.
