Well organized, fantastic trip!!!
We did a Kilimanjaro hike (Lemosho route 7 days) and a 5 day Safari (Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, Ngorongoto Crater) with Kili Slope Tours and Safari in October 2021. The communication in advance was easy and uncomplicated and the organization of the trip and team was great.
We successfully climbed the Kili, had an awesome guide and team where we always felt comfortable and safe. Also at the safari we had a great guide and cook and had a fantastic time. The tour was organized on our preferences so we really got what we wanted to do and see. I can highly recommend the tour operator. Thank you very much for this great holiday!

Fantastic safari experience with Kili Slope!
I had a fantastic experience with Kili Slope Tours and Safaris! We spent one week traversing Serengeti, Ndutu, and Ngorongoro. We had a fantastic experience and I look forward to returning with Kili Slope! Everything went perfectly and I have nothing but positive remarks. Our driver Simon was exceptional and provided us with a fantastic experience. We saw countless leopards, lion, cheetah, and more. I was impressed with Kili Slope Tours for several reasons. Their equipment is high quality and maintained well. For example, the tread on the tires was VERY GOOD and this is important with the wed and muddy road conditions while on safari. Other vehicles with old tires would get stuck in the mud but we never had an issues. Additionally, the tents we used while camping were brand new, clean, and comfortable. Overall, I am very satisfied with my experience and would highly recommend Kili Slope to anyone looking for a great safari experience!
An amazing experience
It was the best experience so far.
We met David and he helped us with a lot of informations.
Kili Slope and tours is the best agency, Jackson ,the driver, is very kind and professional.I sent my request to at least 10 agencies but I chose Kili Slope.
We changed several times the dates, the schedule because of the pandemic but everything went well.
I would highly recommend it.

Incredible week of Safari
Tanzania is an amazing and beautiful country and I would highly encourage everybody to choose the place for Safari. The people are all very nice, Hospitable and all really take the effort to try to conserve the natural environment in the country which leads to a vast concentration of animals. Kili slopes is the perfect company to take you on safari in Tanzania. David is very accommodative and made a personalized itinerary for us for an 8 night Safari. He is easy to reach and his pricing is very reasonable. He promised us we would see all the Big 5 animals during our trip and the Safari lived up to its billing. The diversity of animals far exceeded my previous Safari in South Africa, as we got a great look at the wildebeest migration/calving season in the Ndutu area right before the long rain season. We saw all the big 5 during our safari, several cheetahs and hyenas and even some rare finds such as a serval cat, albino baboon, and a hippo out of water! Overall our Safari was made because of our incredible guide Simon. He is very charismatic, speaks great English, communicates well and truly makes the extra effort to make sure that we get the best chance to see animals. In the Ndutu area off road driving is allowed and he made sure that we could get close enough to see lions in trees, leopards and cheetahs. He is very experienced and we always felt safe in his Jeep. He is very knowledgeable about all of the animals, has an eagle eye in spotting animals we otherwise wouldn’t have seen on our own and is easily one of the best drivers who goes into Serengeti. Additionally, chef Salim made us delicious vegetarian food during every night we camped (even Pizza!). Tanzania has very low rates of covid transmission and is safer than most western countries. Nonetheless, nearly all businesses (including David’s) take the proper precautions including having hand washing/sanitizer readily available. Overall Tanzania is a must see and Kili slope will make sure you have the best experience possible! If Simon is your guide you will certainly not be disappointed.

Alle Erwartungen übertroffen
Meine Erwartungen wurden in jeder Beziehung übertroffen:
- Auf die Anfrage im Internet hatte ich innerhalb eines Tages ein ausgezeichnetes Angebot erhalten.
- Die Anzahlung war unkompliziert (Crefit-Karte oder Banküberweisung).
- Ich wurde zuverlässig am Flughafen abgeholt und nach Arusha ins Hotel gebracht, wo mich David (Manager und Inhaber) schon erwartet hatte und ich auf meinen Safaripartner traf.
- Aufgrund der Gelöndebedingungen wegen des Wetters hat uns David uns eine kleine Änderung des Programms vorgeschlagen. Wir haben ihr zugestimmt und sie ist perfekt gewesen.
- Tags darauf wurden wir von Jackson (Driver und Guide) abgeholt und mir wurde geholfen eine lokale SIM-Karte zu einem fairen Preis zu organisieren.
- Jackson ist ein hat sich als ein ausgezeichneter "Tier-Jäger" erwiesen, konnte uns die Big 5 und noch viele anderen zeigen. Dank seiner guten Vroahnung, was die Tiere als nächstes machen, konnte er uns stets in eine gute Position bringen, um die Tiere ganz nahe zu sehen.
- Stets konnte er unsere Fragen mit grosser Kompetenz beantworten.
- Die Lodges und Camps waren ausgezeichnet. Die Zelte waren eingerichtet wie die Suiten von First-Class-Hotels. Das Essen war immer sehr gut.
- Am Schluss der Safari wurden wir wieder von David erwartet, der sich nach unserer Zufriedenheit erkundigt hat.
Nachmals ganz Grossen Dank an Jackson und David! Diese schönen Erinnerung werde ich niemals vergessen!

My safari experience with Kili Slope was very enjoyable and safe!
I did a 9 days safari with Kili Slope in December. I visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Lake Ndutu, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Arusha National park. I did the luxury accommodation because I’ve never done camping before. Hotels were good with beautiful views of the mountains and crater. Also, I spent three days in Serengeti and I stayed at a tented lodge, which is basically fancy camping. It’s a hotel room inside a tent. You have a nice bed, a nice bathroom with hot running water in the shower, plus a bathtub. It was exciting because there was no fence outside of tent so it was technically “camping” and securities had to escort us from our room to the dining area at night because a Lion could just be sitting next to your tent at night.
Safari included unlimited water, three meals a day (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) as long as accommodation. David, the owner, was very helpful with getting everything booked and planned before my vacation. He sent the daily itinerary of the safari, including the park and accommodation for the day. In order to make sure he answered all my questions before my arrival, he added me in WhatsApp to make sure he was available and reachable at any time. This gave me confidence specially since I was traveling alone. Once I was in Tanzania m, everything went according to plan, I was picked up in Moshi by one of David’s driver and taken to Arusha to start my safari. Before my arrival, I had paid a 26% deposit and once I met David in person, I paid the rest.
The safari itself exceeded my expectations, specially thanks to my driver Simon. Simon is very knowledgeable and passionate about his job. I learned a real great deal from him. He knows almost all the bird species and why their names were given to the them. He told me very detail information about the nature and behavior of each animals. He also told me about most of the trees and plants we saw and what were their functions in nature. After my safari, I could name all the antelopes we saw, I could also tell difference between a male and a female giraffe, and could tell you many fun facts about lions, elephants, buffalos, leopard, baboons, zebras, wildbeest, etc. He really made sure that we took the time for me to appreciate each animal
In its natural habitat, and at the same time learned about them. Simon is very professional, very well spoken, very fluent in English, and very energized! His charisma and patience makes the experience even more pleasant.
Furthermore, chances of seeing action in Safari depends on two things: luck and a good driver. Driver not only needs to know the best spots of where to find the animals, but also has to know how to read the animals body language and understand their next move; as well as being patient to give time and space to the animals to do what they need to do. Simon was definitely the best! Most of the good stuff I watched, we were the only cars there because the other drivers did have the same knowledge as Simon. Thanks to him, I witnessed a group of Lions eating a zebra, witnessed a Cheetah hunting a gazelle right in front of my face from beginning to end, also and most exciting witnessed a Leopard hunt and killed a baboon right in front of us, and watched the baboon family fight him off.
Overall, I am very happy with my safari. It was magical and a remarkable experience! It was very mind opening and fascinating to learn so much about these amazing animals and nature in general.

Fantastic 8 day Lemosho and 2 day Safari
We started with an 8 day Lemosho Kili Trek. Starting from the first contact with David (Manger), the booking, the Pick-up and so on everything worked out very organized and professional. As we had still sone open balance to pay, David picked us up from the hotel and drove us to different ATMs, taking care about everything himself.
The trek itself was an unforgettable experience. Prices are very reasonable and can be adjusted depending on your comfort needs. Our guides Mango and Hatib were fantastic and contributed a lot to this unforgettable experience. I would 100% recommend them. Furthermore Godein was the best summit porter that I can imagine. Having this team you will for sure made it to the summit.
After the trek we continued with a day day Safari to Tanguire and Ngorongoro Crater. Especially the Crater is such a special place which we enjoyed a lot. We chose the budget option and slept on s campsite outside the park. Turned out that the budget option isn‘t that basic and gave as all the rest we needed to fully enjoy the second safari day. Our driver/guide Simon definitely went the extra mile to show us all that is possible during the two days. You really felt the passion for his job and for giving the clients the best service. The vehicle was super comfortable as was the driving.
We can 100% recommend Kili sllpe for whatever activity you plan. You can be sure to get the best service for a reasonable price. All activities have been realised by Kili slopes themselves. So you wont be transferred to any other tour operator that you do not inow before. Definitely a big advantage.
Thank you for everything! Tina&Boris

Excellent organization, great guide
I do not speak English well so this will be a short review. Sorry if i make mistakes because of english. Everything was great. David (the manager) always responded on whatsapp in real time. Everything was very clearly organized. No problems or difficulties arose at any stage.
Guide Simon was wonderful. He knew a lot about any animals, birds and plants. He looks more like an Oxford ecology professor than a regular guide.
Kili Slope has far exceeded my expectations.

It was an amazing safari!
When I was planing my safari I sent my request to a few different companies. The first company replying to my message was Kili Solpe. Thx for that.
During this Corona pandemic it was necessary for me to switch my trip several times because my flights were canceled. David was really cooperative and did his best to change the date of safari. He organized everting very quickly. I was so happy to choose his company.
On 10th of August 2020 I did the 6 day safari Central Serengeti, Northern Circuit and Lake Natron, exactly as I wished to do it. And I was so lucky! I saw so many animals, fantastic!
I started safari by flying into Serengeti! It was incredible to see Serengeti from the sky.
After landing in Serengeti we started the game drive immediately. Simon was my guide and we should be very lucky within just a few hours as we saw lions hunting a gazelle. Some of the jeeps just passed that place not recognizing what will happen soon. We waited in first raw until it happens. So lucky! Thx Simon!
He knows Serengeti so well, was connected to the other drivers all the time and brought me to so many places worth to see. I had really a lot of questions to him as I am thinking about doing my field guide. He had an answer to each of theses.
This was almost my third safari. So I have the possibly to compare a little bit and I was so lucky while recognizing I did the right choice.
Thanks a lot to Kili Slope making my holidays so good!
