Reliable tour agency for a safaris trip
5/5

Our experience with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safaris Club and the trip is very pleasant. The whole process was smooth and comfortable.

From the booking and negotiation on the trip, the booking team has been very professional and efficient. They responded each of our email within 24 hours and also helped us trying out many different scenarios to meet our wishes within our budgets.

At the beginning and the end of trip, the airport transfers were smooth, and the owner greeted us in person to make sure everything was alright. Appreciated the intention.

For our guide, Raphael is relaxed and friendly as a person. My 6 year old son got acquainted with him in no time, and they were each others 'Rafiki (friend in Swahili)' during the whole trip. Our guide let us travel in our own pace but never let us feel miss out on anything. True spirit of hakuna matata. During Safaris time, Rapheal will do his best to follow the leads and make our wishes came true. He also can predict animals' movement very well where we often time get to see the animals from the front line. We are really glad that we had Raphael as the guide.

We will definitely come back to Tanzania again.

Great company, great organisation
4/5

The organisation around the tour is fantastic. The team that coordinates the tours, answer to emails and book the accommodations are incredible. They reply fast, they organize the tour according to your desires and they book accommodations that are luxurious, intimate and where you will be able to rest peacefully.

The different national parks are also incredible. We saw many animals and the experience was great. However, you have to be informed that the road in Tanzania are really difficult, especially to go to Serengeti. It is bumpy and really far so you may take that in consideration when choosing the duration of the tour. We chose 5 days, and I would have preferred to take 6 days to separate the driving time and have more time to enjoy the accommodations.

The only reason why I have to put a lower rate on this tour is because of our guide. Everyday, he was late, was spending a lot of time on his cellphone during lunch/diner (when we were eating together) and we was not precise on the organization of toilets/water/driving distance etc. Also, he seemed not aware that we had book a modified tour, which would make us uncertain at different time during the safari. We felt that we had to specify our needs really often. Also, he would always stop on the road during the safaris to talk with other guides (during several minutes).

Safari Tour, the best experience of our lives!
5/5

It was a very memorable experience on my first safari in Tanzania.
Our total trip was 7D6N, on the first night we stayed in Arusha and the 2nd night until we finished our full safari tour.
Kilimanjaro Aventures Safari, was amazing. From the beginning of the booking until we checked out, the service was very impressive.

Mary, the reservation team was very complete in explaining the tour planning to us. Our driver and guide Gerson, he was amazing! very clear and complete communication when giving information and setting the right time so we could enjoy all the moments.
The accommodation was also amazing, I am speechless because it was too good. We also received birthday and anniversary surprises from the hotel, the staff and service were very friendly. It was a detail that the hotel and Kilimanjaro Safari did not miss.

We were able to get the first moments of the Migration, and it amazed me and my husband to no end.
Thank you Kilimanjaro, you made this an unforgettable experience in our lives!! I highly recommend this tour, their service was beyond expectations!

Unforgettable experience with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club
5/5

We choose a 7 days luxury safari organized by Kilimanjaro Adventure. Everything was perfect, from our arrival in Tanzania to the day we go back to Italy.
The safari experience was wonderful, we have the chance to see all the wildlife, in particular thanks to our super experienced guide, who allowed us to enjoy every single moment of our trip. He drove us from south to north, across all National Parks, conveying his passion and respect for the nature, always accompaneid by his life stories and wildlife discovery.
We recommend this operator if you want to live an unforgettable experience.

We were happy with the organization and communication from Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club.
5/5

We had a great time on safari with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club. From the start, they were super communicative and worked with us to adjust our itinerary to something that fit our schedule and desire.
We decided to find our own accommodations before safari and they picked us up from them. We did a 5 day, 4 night true safari (not including time in Arusha). We went to Tarangire, 2-nights in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and then Lake Manyara. We were glad we changed the itinerary to have 2-nights in the Serengeti because it was great to be able to go deeper into the park where there was less people. We wish we would have spent a night in the Ngorongoro Crater but it seems like you need to book that well in advance. We could have skipped Lake Manyara but it was the only park we say blue monkeys in so that was cool. Depending on the itinerary and safari you are looking for Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club can make it happen!
All the meals were good too. We had hot lunches every day. These are prepared by your accommodations so could vary based on where you stay. But all the places we stayed were happy to hear if we had suggestions or desires for lunch.
Sifuni was our guide and we had a lot of fun with him over the week! He was knowledgeable at answering any animal, bird, plant and park question he had. He taught us a lot of Swahili and about Tanzania.
In total we saw 32 cats (25 lions, 3 cheetahs, 2 leopards, 2 serval cats)!
Asante sana Sifuni and Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club for a memorable week!

A perfect safari with sightings of all the big five thanks to knowledge, contacts and efforts.
5/5

The Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club (KASC) made all efforts to provide the best possible safari experience through a very knowledgeable guide, Justin, who seemed to know all the other guides and thereby obtained tips about sightings of animals through continued contacts. Justin was also very responsible and helpful to other Safari participants who had run into problems like flat tyres, which I suppose contribute to being on excellent terms with so many other guides. As a result we saw loads of animals, both the ones easily visible in very good perspectives and the most rare and difficult to spot, like leopards, including all the big five.
Justin and the KASC were also extremely helpful and saved no efforts in getting my suitcase, which KLM /Air France had lost on the way from Europe, all the way up to Serengeti from Zanzibar.
In our programme (mid range/luxury) some of the hotels were more luxurious than others but they were all very nice and situated in a wonderful environment. They all also made great efforts to adapt to food intolerance etc and the staff was very nice.

Thoughtful and professional Safari Club
5/5

Kilimanjaro Safari Club really paid attention to detail, was thoughtful, flexible, and professional! From the planning of our trip, to the moment we were picked up from the airport, until dropped off at completion of our tour they thought of everything. We felt comfortable and in good hands with our driver, Justin as well. The company made delicious and healthy foods for our game drives and took us to the most beautiful national parks. Justin also informed us about the animals we saw. He kept in contact with other guides and was able to drive us to locations where there were animal sightings (especially in the Serengeti where it is SO vast and spread out). We saw elephants, lions, hippos, hyena, giraffes, buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, and many more! I even saw a leopard! It was the BEST experience! I really want to go back to the Serengeti some day to see the actual migration! Make sure you check times on that because I was told we were early by less than 2 weeks, even though I read it started in early July when we arrived. I would go later in July next time and spend a longer time in the Serengeti. It’s too big to see in a mere day and a half.

Memorable eight day safari
5/5

We spent 8 days on safari in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Dennis from Kilimanjaro Adventures and they are 8 days that we will never forget. Because of Dennis' incredible eye for nature, we managed to see an unprecedented amount of animals. Not only did we see the Big 5, but we were also very impressed with the amount of animals that we had never heard of before. From the peculiar Grey crowned crane to the cutest Dik-Diks, Dennis was simply spotting stunning sights left right and centre throughout our whole journey. Furthermore, we were lucky enough to witness the great Mara River crossing, where thousands of Wildebeest charge and swim across the crocodile-infested river, having to then avoid being victim of a lion ambush on the other side to reach the rain and greener grass in Kenya. Prior to this, we were immersed in an endless herd of Wildebeest as they neared the river. Dennis didn't only show us animals though, and we witnessed some beautiful African landscapes and sunsets. It was an unforgettable experience.

However, it wasn't only the animals and landscape that we saw, because as we drove through villages, we were introduced to beautiful African culture. As we drove past, all the children would merrily wave with smiles on their faces as they came from or went to school. Everyone we met on our journey was incredibly friendly, we didn't see anybody who wasn't kind. We bought many souvenirs and Dennis knew all the best places where we could buy things. We also visited a Masaai village recommended by him and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Also, the accommodations that Kilimanjaro Adventures thought of for us to stay at were second to none. Each of the places we slept at provided picturesque views and a great experience. One night, as we returned from dinner, we encountered some zebras and antelope grazing in front of our tent!

Overall, Kilimanjaro Adventures have given us a beautiful trip and a memory that will live with us forever.

An adventure of a lifetime
5/5

An Unforgettable Safari Adventure with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club

From the moment we began planning our safari adventure, Prince at Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club set the bar incredibly high. His expertise in crafting the perfect itinerary was matched only by his prompt and crystal-clear communication, ensuring that every detail was tailored to our preferences and expectations.

Once we embarked on our journey, Gasper proved to be an exceptional guide whose passion for the wilderness was infectious. His vast knowledge and eagerness to accommodate made every encounter with the majestic wildlife an educational delight. Gasper’s kindness and flexibility allowed us to explore at our own pace, turning what was already a dream trip into something truly extraordinary.

The overall experience with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club was nothing short of amazing. Every aspect of the trip was seamless. The hotel selections were not just accommodations; they were destinations in themselves, each offering a unique window into the heart of the safari experience. The culinary delights served throughout our stay were a feast for the senses, complementing the day’s adventures with flavors as bold and memorable as the landscapes we traversed.

We wholeheartedly recommend Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club to anyone seeking a safari that promises not just a getaway but a journey into the extraordinary. Our expectations were not just met—they were surpassed, and the memories we’ve made are as indelible as the African sunsets.

Thank you, Gasper and Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club, for an adventure of a lifetime!

Great experience
5/5

I've asked and compared 4 offers from different agencies, and finally I'm happy to have chosen Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari! Couldn't do a better choice.
Our tour was starting from Arusha, including 1 day at Tarangire, two and a half at Serengeti, then Ngorongoro and finally Lake Manyara to get back to Arusha. Our guide was Yao, an experienced guide, ready to give us all the advices and to look for the wildlife. We've seen all we aimed to see and the Safary at the Sunrise was amazing.
All the places we've slept were super nice and confortable. The car was always clean and with plenty of water.

Thanks again to Yao, to Prince that was super-reactive to answer all our questions and to Mr. Makoninde that came to welcome us on our arrival.
You won't regret this choice!
