One team, one dream — can fully recommend Zanzi’s
We had an amazing Kilimanjaro trek with Isack, Lazaro and team. We chose to do the 6-day Lemosho route which can be slightly tougher but the guides constantly had our success at the forefront of their mind, ensuring that we reached our goal. In fact on summit day they managed to support us to be the first group to reach Uhuru Peak!
The experience from the whole team was seamless - from fetching water, carrying our bags and setting up camp, and feeding us 3 tasty meals a day (plus snacks!!) and other tasks we didn’t even see - meant we could focus on simply walking and enjoying the beautiful scenery. Douglas our chef made a big effort to cater to one vegetarian in the group with a variety of meals across the 6 days which was truly appreciated.
The price for what you get is amazing, all the kit we were given and the items we hired (sleeping bags, mattresses) were of great quality meaning we always got a good night’s sleep. We can’t recommend Zanzi Trekking and Safaris enough!
Competent
I spent 6 days trekking the mountain with guide Justin as well as porters and a cook. I can only say that it was an amazing experience that was only made possible due to the zanzi team. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. Justin was able to provide careful medical attention when needed and would always inform me about interesting facts about the mountain and its surroundings.
Although my appetite wasn't the best due to the altitude, the food provided was very good. I can only recommend the Zanzi team for the trip and wish them all the best!

A Seamless Experience with Zanzi Trekking
Zanzi Trekking provided a memorable experience for our Kilimanjaro trek. Their excellent customer service and seamless communication made booking and planning easy. The company organized a private trek on the Lemosho route, ensuring everything was taken care of so we could focus on reaching Uhuru Peak.
The professional and friendly team at Zanzi Trekking made sure the trek was safe and enjoyable, even when challenges arose. The guides and porters not only led us up the mountain but also shared insights into Tanzanian culture, making the journey more than just a climb—it was a cultural connection and a chance to form lasting friendships.

Incredible, best Kilimanjaro experience you could ever imagine
We just finished 7days Lemosho Trekking tour with Zanzi trekking team. It was overwhelmingly goooodd! More than Perfect!!
Our guide Justin is the best guide you could ever imagine. He is very patient, attentive, experienced and knowledgeable. Everything we thought about or never think about trekking, he is always ready for us. He took very good care of us. Everyday plan and preparation are always well explained. He can answer all questions that we had about the nature, the mountain and the country. Fred, our assistant guide and the porter team(Faraja, Kelvin, Nahor, Dual, Pius, Joseph, Shadraki) they are so caring and cheerful. Our cook Dastan, top! He always know what my belly need after hiking! I don’t have a single moment missing my hometown food.
We couldn’t make to summit without such an amazing team. Their encouragement when we struggled, their happy faces after we achieved the summit, their dance and songs, all made our Kilimanjaro trip so unique and unforgettable.
100% recommend to anyone who want to climb Kilimanjaro! You will have an amazing time with them!!

Professional, well organized, enjoyable
I travel by myself, and Zanzi Safari organized for me 3days safari trip. That was the best choice. The crew prepared for me not only fantastic and memorable journey through local parks but also made me feel welcomed and worries free. All was prepared up to perfection. The care was overwhelming, which made me feel safe and secure. People very kind. I would recommend to everyone.

Chill and caring
If you are planning to hike Kilimanjaro, I will recommend to trust local company Zanzi Trekking and their professional crew. We had an incredible week hiking Lemosho route all the way up to the summit. Me and 2 friends booked a private tour and had 10-person crew with friendly porters, chef, waiter and couple of guides. Maru and George (the guides) were amazingly talented leaders and i could trust the whole trip that we got perfect advice for each day. Even thought there were challencing moments on hike, our guides knew exactly how to push us forward and still kept our minds happy. Thanks to the chef for making delicious foods, especially soups kept us warm. Also food was always on time and that’s something you dont want to stress about at the mountain. So if you are looking for chill and talented crew and want to reach the summit with cheap price, support and go and take a hike with these guys. Thank you for sharing this hard but worthy experience with me, I will see you guys some day again. Jambo jambo!

fantastic 8-day safari trip in Tanzania and Kenya
Thanks Zanzi! Honest and his team planned an excellent itinerary for us. We participated in an 8-day, 7-night Safari tour in Kenya and Tanzania. Our guide was very professional, sincere, and knowledgeable, showing us a multitude of animals and imparting their knowledge about them. The vehicles were well-maintained, clean, and comfortable to ride in. The accommodation arrangements were superb; for a budget tour, being able to provide private bathrooms and even staying in a lodge was truly great value for money! Honest was meticulous and attentive throughout, ensuring that everyone’s needs were met and making us feel very cared for. Many thanks to Honest, Jeff, and Ruben for their hard work, which allowed us to have an amazing East African adventure! We’re already considering coming back for a mountain climbing experience next time!

Amazing Safari Experience
I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a safari with Zanzi Trekking and Safaris and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From the moment we were picked up until the end of our journey, every detail was meticulously planned and executed.
Ruben, the guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife and ecosystems. His expertise not only ensured we saw the Big Five but also taught us about the behaviors and habitats of countless other species. His enthusiasm was infectious, making each game drive exciting and educational.
The accommodations were superb, offering a perfect blend of comfort and wilderness. We stayed in beautifully appointed lodges that provided stunning views, excellent service, and delicious food. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and catered to our every need.
One of the highlights was the diversity of landscapes we explored, from vast savannahs to lush forests. Each location offered unique wildlife sightings and breathtaking scenery. The sunrise and sunset game drives were magical, providing the perfect lighting for photography and unforgettable moments.
Safety was a top priority throughout the trip, and we felt secure and well taken care of at all times.
I highly recommend Zanzi Trekking and Safaris for anyone seeking a top-tier safari experience. Whether you're a seasoned traveler or embarking on your first adventure, they will exceed your expectations. I can't wait to return and create more memories with them!

Incredible trekking adventure to Kilimanjaro and safari across Tanzania thanks to this local company
Incredible adventure and experience thanks to Zanzi Trekking and Safaris. We contacted them to do the Kilimanjaro trek via the Machame route and also to go on a safari. It's the perfect choice if you want to support a genuine local company.
For the trekking, we couldn't have asked for a better team to achieve it. Justin was our guide, an amazing person with deep cultural knowledge, great conversation skills, and who made the trek more enjoyable. His mountain experience was crucial; without him and his assistant Nestory, we couldn't have reached the summit, as they understand altitude needs perfectly and provide the necessary advice to keep going and ensure safety if needed.
The adventure was a team effort. Besides the guides, Steven the chef provided everything we needed to stay energized, and the meals were delicious. Every time we arrived at camp, everything was prepared thanks to the porters (kilifighters) Dominic, Peter, Lazaro, Kelvin, Kelvin II, and Dula. They took care of everything, allowing us to focus on the experience.
It's not just a trekking experience but also an opportunity to meet locals and learn about their lives, enriching culturally and personally throughout the journey.
We also enjoyed a private safari, tailored to our preferences and requests. We visited the main national parks, guided by Ruben in a safari jeep with a open roof for perfect wildlife viewing. Ruben was an excellent guide, ensuring our safety, communicating with other drivers to spot every animal. It was unforgettable. Abu, the chef, accompanied us during our three days camping in the Serengeti.
In summary, Zanzi Trekking and Safaris is a fantastic option if you're looking to climb Kilimanjaro and experience a safari in Tanzania, all while supporting a local business and its workers and families. Thanks to Honest, the owner, for organizing this unforgettable journey.

Epic Adventure on Kilimanjaro with Justin as a guide and His Incredible Team
If you're dreaming of conquering Kilimanjaro, look no further than Zanzi Trekking and Safaris, with Justin as a guide and his exceptional team! My recent trek was nothing short of extraordinary, filled with breathtaking views, challenging hikes, and unforgettable camaraderie.
From the moment we met Justin, it was clear we were in the best hands. His passion for the mountain and deep knowledge of the terrain shone through every briefing and step we took. Justin's infectious enthusiasm kept our spirits high, even when the altitude challenged us.
The team was phenomenal. Every guide, porter, and cook contributed to making this journey special. Their support, encouragement, and seamless teamwork were inspiring. The food was incredible too, how they managed to create such delicious meals on the mountain remains a mystery!🤤
Each day brought new landscapes and adventures. From the lush rainforests to the stark beauty of the alpine desert, the ever-changing scenery kept us captivated. Summit night was the ultimate test of endurance and willpower. But with Justin's guidance and the team's unwavering support, we reached Uhuru Peak at sunrise, a moment of pure triumph and awe.🗻💓
If you're looking for the best Kilimanjaro experience, Justin and his team are unparalleled. Their expertise, dedication, and genuine care turned a challenging trek into an epic adventure. Highly recommend this incredible team for anyone ready to take on the Roof of Africa!🇹🇿😉
