Incredible nature sights and educative tour guide in Mikumi National park
5/5

I traveled with Kihindo Tours and Safaris to Mikumi National Park in December, accompanied by three friends. Our tour guide, William, picked us up from our accommodation in Dar es Salaam early in the morning, around 6 a.m., and we drove together to our hotel near the park. In the evening, we visited a Maasai village where we had the opportunity to take part in a Maasai tour. The guide taught us about their way of life and showed us around, which was an enriching experience. We then returned to the hotel and enjoyed dinner at their restaurant.

The following day began with breakfast at 6 a.m., followed by a short drive to the national park. On the way, we already saw several animals, including zebras, antelopes, and giraffes. We quickly realized that luck was on our side, as we managed to spot four of the Big Five in just a few hours (there are no rhinos in Mikumi, which is the fifth of the Big Five). Throughout the day, William, our exceptional guide, took the time to explain the characteristics of each animal we encountered and answered all of our questions with great care. Lunch was served at a restaurant within the park, where we were accompanied by monkeys roaming around the area, all while enjoying a beautiful view of the savannah. We ended the game drive around 5 pm and were served dinner back at the hotel.

On the second day of the safari, the weather turned rainy, but this did not bother us, as we were in a vehicle with a roof—unlike most other safari companies we observed. It was actually quite beautiful to witness the dramatic transformation of the landscape as the rain began, and it added to the surreal feeling of being immersed in nature. We informed William that we wanted to experience a more relaxed, "slow TV"-style safari, simply watching the animals at our own pace, which he was more than happy to accommodate. His flexibility and attentiveness made the experience even more enjoyable, and I appreciated this personal touch, which was a major advantage of having a private guide.

On the third day, we had a travel day, as we drove back to Dar es Salaam and were dropped off at the ferry terminal for our trip to Zanzibar. Overall, it was a highly enjoyable experience, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Kihindo Tours and Safaris to anyone considering a safari in Tanzania.

fantastic customer service, unforgettable experience
5/5

I booked last minute (9pm the night before) for a one-day trip to Mikumi National Park from Dar es Salaam. Firstly, the experience was incredible - more animals per hour than any national park I've been to - baby elephants, baby giraffes, a lioness and cubs hiding away (but we saw them!) and a lion that walked alongside the jeep. Absolutely brilliant. Secondly, the customer service was exceptional - Winnie from the team was so responsive, booking everything even though it was late and pick up was 5am, and I had a private guide and driver in the park. Connections and transport was seamless, from hotel pick-up to train station, train, pick up and drive to the park, and back again. Flawless. Shout out to Winnie, drivers Adam, Isaya and Ibrahim, and safari guide Saloniki.

Amazing organisation and contact throughout the process. Felt like I was in good hands.
5/5

Winnie’s communication throughout was exceptional. I cannot compliment her more because she really made sure everything was done properly. There was never a question unanswered and everything was organised perfectly with no problems. We felt safe and comfortable at all times and well looked after. Thank you so much for a once in a lifetime safari that we will remember forever! I would give 10 stars if I could :)

Amazing guide and driver – perfect timing for the best wildlife spots!
5/5

From start to finish, this safari was absolutely outstanding! Communication was seamless, even before the trip, and the service was top-notch—everything was tailored to our needs. The value for money? A solid 12/10! 😅 We saw an incredible amount of wildlife and had what felt like a private tour, just the two of us, rather than being packed into a vehicle with ten others. On top of that, our driver had perfect timing, always getting us to the right spots at the right moment. You could truly tell he loved his job and knew the area inside out—he shared so much fascinating knowledge with us. Truly an exceptional experience—couldn’t be happier!

Profesional and local experience
5/5

If you're still unsure about booking a safari, just stop thinking and do it! A few weeks ago, I was in the same situation, scrolling through reviews trying to find the right company, and I'm so happy I chose them. The reviews are completely accurate and definitely lived up to the hype!

From the very first moment we contacted the company, Winnie was incredibly helpful. She was always attentive and made sure everything was taken care of for us, answering all our questions and ensuring we had everything we needed.

But the real highlight was our guide, Michael. He’s absolutely amazing! His knowledge is outstanding, and he really takes the time to make sure you see all the animals up close. We had such interesting conversations, and he taught us so much about the wildlife and culture. It was truly an unforgettable experience. Michael is the kind of guide who genuinely cares that you have the best safari experience possible, and it shows.

This was truly a dream come true for us, and knowing we’re supporting a local Tanzanian business with no middlemen makes it even more special. The money was so well spent, and we couldn’t recommend this company enough. Huge thanks to everyone, especially Winnie and Michael – you made this trip incredible!
