Outstanding Experience
We booked our 3 night/4day safari with Kilidove. George provided excellent service in planning our trip from home. He answered all our questions and he was prompt with replies. When budget became an issue he was able to provide alternatives which we accepted to bring the cost down. Our driver/guide, Nixon, is an amazing person, very friendly and helpful . He stayed with us throughout the trip, from picking us at the airport to dropping us off at the end of the trip. The Serena Lodges in the park were all excellent. We had an amazing time and highly recommend Kilidove.

wonderfull experience with Kilidove Tours and Safari
Me and my girlfriend just came back from a 4 days safari, 2 days serengeti np and 1 day ngorongoro crater. Our impression was very good, our guide was very professional and expert about many things, he was ready to answer every question we asked and showed us as much as possible. Mawe tended camp was just stunning, very private, with good facilities and very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful too. I would go back tomorrow if I could.

Wonderful Honeymoon with Kilidove
Kilidove organized our two week trip to Tanzania for our honeymoon in mid-August 2016, including a one week safari in the Serengeti / Ngorongoro and one week at the Z Hotel in Zanzibar. Everything went smoothly from our initial email conversations with George through our activities the entire trip. They were very responsive and flexible when we were looking into different areas of Zanzibar for our stay. All of the accommodations they arranged were excellent, including Mawe Tented Camp in the Sergeneti. Our Serengeti guide, Joshua, was incredible - he was very personable, flexible, and was an expert on everything related to our safari, including the habits of different animals from the big 5 to the many birds we saw, the environment and trees / plants along the way. He was amazing at being able to spot animals we would have missed, and we had multiple sightings of difficult to find animals including cheetahs and leopards (with their cubs no less). He even spotted two rare rhinos in Ngorongoro. We saw all the big 5 multiple times, and literally saw something new every day.
Our connections throughout the trip were all efficiently arranged, drivers were waiting for us even after we experienced a few delays with our airlines.
We couldn't have asked for a better trip, and the rate was very reasonable for everything that was included. Highly recommend!

Perfect safari, perfect team, perfect guide -> unforgetable impressions
We did a 7 days safari in Tansania with Kilidove Tours end of August 2016 at nothern circuit with Arusha NP, Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Ngorongoro and of course the Serengeti. George aranged everything perfect, all Lodges, all gamedrives and visit to Oldupai-gorge were well organized. No problems at all. Incredible Impressions and Joshua (best guide south of the sahara) made this trip unforgetable. We will come back and do our next safari with Kilidove.

George, Kilidove Tours and Mawe Camp in Serengeti
we booked our family safari tour through Tanzania with Kilidove Tours guided by Michael on a land cruiser it was one of our best holiday ever
The guide's eye is more than that of eagle he showed us everything rhinos, lions,hippos, elephants and he was very knowledgeable and very friendly we felt more than home
our tour included several parks of north Tanzania and a visit to Zanzibar
George put all plans together for us and we were honored to be welcomed and spend some nights at his luxury Mawe Tent Camp in the Serengeti. Make camp was the best place we stayed over all accommodation we stayed, the staffs are amazing, the location is fantastic its just one of the few places on earth where everyone wants to be.
Look no elsewhere Kilidove knows how to make your dream holiday come true

Look Nowhere Else for a fantastic, full service safari experience!!
George was absolutely wonderful. Replied to all my queries and emails very quickly. He was very patient to work with us on the exact, customized safari vacation that we wanted and within our budget. He arranged absolutely everything: hotels, in country flights, game drives, everything. We stayed at his Mawe Tented Camp in the Serengeti. Superb facilities and customer service. Full on luxury camping and right in the middle of all the action. He has the best guides who are experienced, knowledgeable and customer service oriented. The best one: Boney! Request him. He picked us up at the airport and stayed with us the entire time until he dropped us off to fly to Zanzibar. He could spot a cheetah in waist high grass hundreds of yards away. He has been doing it for so long, he just knows what to look for in the habitat. We saw the big five thanks to him. He was super reliable and safe. We haven't stopped talking about this trip and George. Highly recommend!

Kilidove Tours and Safari was 5+ stars!
I used safari bookings to research and help select my safari operator and was thankful for the site. Kilidove Tours and Safari was on my shortlist and after numerous emails back and forth to George at Kilidove I knew that they were the Operator for me. He was prompt, professional, detailed in his correspondence and arranged the most memorable safari and cultural tour for me. I was looking for a mid-price safari and George arranged exactly what I was looking for. Very satisfied with the chosen accommodations of Mawe Tented Camp and Rhino Lodge, and the cultural tour George suggested and arranged after my safari was a day I'll never forget. It was the best!
As a solo female traveler it was important to me to feel comfortable and secure with the Operator I choose. I had a wonderful driver/guide in Joshua who was knowledgeable, pleasant and had an eye like a hawk. Couldn't ask for anything more and I highly recommend them and when I go back, which I will, I be contacting George at Kilidove!

Excellent, very uncomplicated and easy-5*
Me and my husband were looking for a Safari Operator, which offers a mid-range safari & covers all the National Parks in the north of Tanzania. Therefore we used safari bookings.com. This is how we found Kilidove Tours with lots of good reviews. Finally we booked the "7-Day Best of Northern Tanzania Safari" via George. One of our best decisions!!! Everything went very smooth: he answered all our questions and also the payment went without any troubles.
In particular we loved our driver/guide Joshua! He is such a nice person with a heartly laugh. It was such a pleasure to spent the 7 days with him. We felt always very safe in his Jeep, because he is really a good driver. Furthermore, he knows sooo much about the animals and plants. Moreover, we were also talking a lot about Tanzania in general, the education, the Masaai people, the government...
We are also very satisfied with the chosen accommodations like the Mawe Tented Camp in Serengeti or Eileens Tree House. At Ngorongoro Crater we were very lucky and were upgraded so that we could stay dirctly at the rim of the crater-really fantastic view.
Altogether: We can highly recommend Kilidove Safaris and would also choose this Operator again and again. Joshua, see you one day again. All the Best!!! By the way, when will you pick us up after breakfast tomorrow ;-)))

Wonderful experience
We did the 10 day Northern Migration tour. This was our first trip to Africa and Kilidove proved to be a perfect choice for our Safari. Everything flowed smoothly, from my first contact with George to book the tour until our farewell to Max at the airport. Our guide, Joshua, was personable, knowledgeable and excellent at finding animals. We saw two herds of wildebeest cross the river and also saw a large number of other species, averaging 30+ different species per day. Joshua was a very good driver and we felt safe with him at all times. The accommodation and meals were all of high quality. The vehicle was comfortable and we had no mechanical issues despite the challenging terrain. Our Safari exceeded our expectations and we would not hesitate to use Kilidove again.
