Very helpful, attentive and was always paying close attention.
Flawless communication, exceptional service, and a breathtaking tour. Expert guides, stunning wildlife, and a well-organized adventure—highly recommended!
Highly recommended zanzi trekking and safaris for Mount Meru
Amazing team! Highly recommend this company if you’re looking to do any trips in Tanzania!
I went solo on the Mount Meru hike and had the best time - the team were so helpful and accommodating to the whole time, I felt very safe
My guide Nestory, chef Dulla, waiter Oti and porter Frank all gave the best service - very grateful for this experience:)
The communication before and after the hike was also great!
Thank you to the Zanzi family!

Amazing organization, great crew
From the start to the finish, everything went great! Our guide, Nestor, and the entire crew, porters and cook made sure we had a great time climbing mount Meru. Without them, we could not make it :)

Amazing tour company giving me memories for life
Big thank you the whole company, Zanzi Trekking and Safari for making truly one of my best experiences in life. In between the most beatuiful landscape and scenery, the tour guide and the rest of the crew made me feel like home, taking very good care of me and the chef served several great meals each day, served by a funny and polite gentleman who served the role as a facilitator.
Priced lower than most other offers I got, it’ did not compromise on either quality, knowledge or safety.
My tour guide George made it possible for me to conquer the roof of Africa and we shared many wonderful hours together, ending up with a great friendship.
Thank you for your good communication before during and after the trip and looking forward to our next adventure
Fast responses, very nice handling of things, great guides and staff
great value for money. Reliable communication. All members of staff, from porters to the waiter, chef, assistant guide and guide, were very friendly and encouraging. We had an amazing time on Kilimanjaro

Excellent!
A very kind and professional team. We went 2 people with a crew of nine. Always looking after us with a smile. They listen to our questions and fixed how we wanted. Very good food everyday. Can’t understand how they can fix starter, hotmeal and fruits every day. Even breakfast was porrige, egg, vegetables, mango, pineapple ond so on. They also choosed good places on the side for the camp. Not so crowded snd buzzy. And they were quiet when we needed to sleep. Other campgroups were more noisey. I will recommend you this agenyfor their tranparancy for costs and opurtunity for arrange the trip we wanted. We go for Kili, safari and zanzi total 19 days. You can not find that in other bigger companies.

Best service, felt like family!
Had the most amazing time on Kilimanjaro with Zanzi. It was just me and a team of 4 porters, 1 guide and 1 chef. They did such a great job making me feel good every day. The food was amazing, I even felt like I was glamping in stead of camping. The team is wonderful and so is the mountain. My guide Charles could tell me all about nature, animals and of course Kilimanjaro. Learned a lot and had the best time climbing the highest peak in Africa. Thank you Zanzi!

Passionate and dedicated team on budget gear and conditions
Zanzi Trekking offered the best price for the 7 day Lemosho hike that I could find. On top of that, they offered by far the best customer support pre-booking, responding always under a couple hours, with detailed info, a lot of care and empathy, and they were even kind enough to offer us sleeping bags free of charge. I went with just one more friend, and we had the privilege of having a lot of attention from 2 guides and a team of 6 porters and one cook. Everyone in the team was experienced abd committed to making our ascend a success, and they were always driven to find quick solutions to problems. Due to the nature of the mountain and it's climb, surprises are bound to happen (e.g. related to the weather). Being a budget hike, don't expect anything fancy - however, the amenities and services are sufficient, and will throw most hikers outside of the comfort zone at times, which truly contributes to the feeling of accomplishment when reaching the top. The guides were instrumental in helping us reach the summit, as well as descending from it - in our case, since there was a heavy snowfall the night before the final push, there was lots of slippery ice when coming down. Our guides helped me throughout 2 hours, literally giving me their hand/shoulders to support me.
I won't lie, there were some structural things that could be improved, and we made a couple of recommendations in the end - the main one being the quality of the tent, which sometimes had it's zipper jammed and was not completely water proof. However, our team was always quick to find solutions, so in reality we didn't have any problems, just a bit of anxiety at times. For that reason my rating is a 4. But for certain people, those moments actually make up the best stories. All in all, I wouldn't recommend it to people who aren't experienced in camping or haven't done other hikes - except that, this experience will for sure be unforgettable!
