Highly recommend this company they were great. Only good things to say.
Zanzi Trekking and Safaris was amazing! Justin and David were great guides and were very helpful and kind all throughout our climbs of both Mt. Meru and Kilimanjaro. They were very motivating and felt more like friends because of how personable they were from eating with us to talking with us as we were hiking. The rest of the team was also wonderful. Calvin, Dominick, Lazaro, Preygod, Tumaini, Elisha, Matayo, and the chef were always on time and we could not have done it without them. I highly recommend this company!

An unforgettable trip
In January, we went on budget ascents of Mt. Meru (3 day) and Kilimanjaro (5 day, Marangu). Thanks to Zanzi Trekking and Safaris, all four in our party successfully made it to both summits. Our experience with Zanzi exceeded all expectations. Our guide Justin was deeply knowledgeable, and a great conversationalist. The food was good and plentiful: imagine fresh mango or pizza at 15,000+ feet! When we were still sore from Meru and a little under-the-weather, Honest accommodatingly allowed us to delay our Kilimanjaro trek, and to switch to a different route (free of charge!). The support staff (shout-outs to Calvin, Expendable, Dominick, and assistant guide David) were also excellent. If you’re thinking of climbing Meru or Kili, Zanzi will not disappoint!

Highly Recommended! Superb Tour Guide
We had a great experience with Zanzi Trekking and Safaris tour. Overall journey was smooth and the accomodations are well provided. Mr Honest, the local tour operator always ensured our safety despite we are quite worry initially. During game drive our tour guide also always ensured we had the best spot to capture the animals in a close up view. He is a good animal tracker!
They too provided us a great ride to Arusha supermarket. Love it so much! I would say that Zanzi Trekking and Safari tour gave us an amazing experience and definitely will revisit again;)

Highly recommended! Don't miss it!
We are so glad that we chose Zanzi Trekking and Safari Tour as our travel company for our 10 days and 8 nights tour in Kenya and Tanzania. The company exceeded our expectations in every way. From the first day to the eighth day, the manager, Honest, and our guides ensured that our journey was smooth, safe, and enjoyable. Honest also helped us coordinate the airport pickup driver to make our travel experience more seamless. The guides in Kenya and Tanzania were excellent and they made sure we had a memorable game drive experience and always found the best locations for us to take close-up photos of the wildlife. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and well prepared, and the meals provided were also very good. We were also provided with plenty of cold water to ensure that we stayed hydrated throughout the day's tour. At the end of the tour, Honest even made a point to visit us and even visited the hotel to make sure everything went well. We were surprised to learn that we were his first Malaysian customers! He also kindly took us to the nearby supermarket and souvenir shop for us to do some quick shopping before the driver came to pick us up back at Nairobi Airport. We are so grateful to Zanzi Trekking and Safari Tour for providing us with such an unforgettable first travel experience in Africa. I highly recommend their services and will definitely choose them again on our next African adventure!

Amazing, highly recommended.
Our 7-day Lemosho Route tour to Kilimanjaro was absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we started the trek, we were blown away by the incredible dedication and support of our team. The porters worked tirelessly to ensure our comfort, carrying our gear and setting up camp ahead of our arrival at every stop. They were truly the backbone of this adventure, and we couldn't have done it without them.
A huge shoutout goes to our amazing guides, August and Lazaro. Their professionalism, knowledge of the mountain, and encouragement were unmatched. They knew just how to pace us and keep our spirits high throughout the trek. Whether it was sharing interesting facts about the route, keeping us motivated during the challenging parts, or just their warm and friendly personalities, August and Lazaro made the journey so much more enjoyable.
The food was far beyond our expectations—delicious and perfectly suited for the demands of the trek. The diverse landscapes along the route were breathtaking, and reaching the summit was an emotional, life-changing moment. We’re so grateful to the team for making this journey unforgettable! Highly recommended!

5 stars!
Zanzi Trekking exceeded our expectations in every way. Justin and Honest made sure to have briefing sessions with us before each of our treks to Mt Meru and Kili. They checked our gear and gave us a thorough view of what our schedule would be like. Every part of the experience was better than I could have imagined. The food was amazing, and it’s all even more impressive considering that the chef, Dastan, and porters can bring all that delicious food up to 4500 meters elevation for us! Our team of porters (Calvin, Dominick, Lazaro, Matayo, Preygod, Elisha, and Tumani) were amazing and attentive to all our needs. Calvin provided excellent service, helping us to wake up in the morning and serving us meals, tea, snacks etc. Dominick and Lazaro accompanied us to the summits and were always there to make sure we had all the help we needed to ensure we got to the top! Last but not least, our guides were absolutely amazing. Justin, our main guide for Meru and Kili was so knowledgable and encouraging. He always was there to make sure we were happy, healthy, and equipped to make it to each summit. David was our assistant guide for Kili, and his good attitude and encouragement was very welcome. Getting to the summit of these mountains is no easy task, but this team made it so much more possible for us.

Great climb on Mount Kilimanjaro
We climbed the Kilimanjaro and it was great. There will be coming up many unexpected things and with our great guides Isack and Jumanee and their flexibility and experience we managed every challenge perfectly, also the manager Honest was very helpful for everything before and after the climb itself!

Fantastic experience!!!
It was the most amazing experience ever! The whole Zanzi trekking team is fantastic, Honest followed us from our first day in Tanzania, he came to our hotel to explain everything about the Safari we were going to do and at the end of the days he came back to toast with us to this fantastic experience.
I was very skeptical at the beginning because a friend of mine had had a bad experience (scam) with another companion but they were special, they reassured me and helped me with the whole organization of the trip right from the start. Very helpful and kind.
The lodges they booked for the nights in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro are truly spectacular.
I really recommend their community for your Safari or Kilimanjaro climb
