Travelling in these uncertain times Dave gave great support it was a great experience
Communications were well managed I was apprehensive to travel during this pandemic. Dave answered all my questions Everything on the itineraries were fulfilled. I went on a camping safari and trekked MT meru. There were very few tourists. It was just myself the guide and cook. They are professionals very knowledgeable. Saw alot of wildlife and the trek was very rewarding. THANKS AGAIN KILISLOPE

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!

Had a great experience, would def recommend
They were great. David was awesome. They were flexible in working with me and delivered an incredible, once in a lifetime experience. After climbing Kili, I decided last minute to stay for safari, a life-long dream of mine. That afternoon, I spoke with several places, trying to find a group to join the next day.
David added me to an existing safari, directed me to Arusha, which hotel to stay at, and it all came together perfectly. With no real planning. I did 3 days, one night in Serengeti and then Rhino Lodge at Ngorongoro crater. The Tented camp in the Serengeti was amazing. My tent had power, warm shower, separate shower/bathroom, great bed. It was immersed in the bush, I absolutely loved it. Rhino Lodge was totally different but great also. The back patio opened right up to the jungle. The community room was awesome.
We saw all Big 5. Male lion from 3-5 meters. A pride of 10+ females and a couple cubs dining on a Grant's Gazelle kill. A huge herd of elephants. Leopard in a tree all in Serengeti and rhino's in Ngorongoro. More lions. A bunch of giraffes entering Serengeti. Maybe we got lucky. But it was absolutely everything I had hoped for.

Professional and reliable
We went for a 3-day group tour: Serengeti + Ngorongoro. All went smoothly. There were only 3 persons in a group (out of 6). We spend 1st night in a tented lodge and second night in a tent. Both were interesting experiences. We were lucky enough to see all Big5 close up + great migration. Our guide Simon was very intelligent and easy to communicate. He knew everything about wildlife and local customs and managed to make our trip exciting.

Very nice experience !
We booked a four day safari in September 2019 based on the good review of this tour operator. Overall we had a very good experience, we could personalize our trip and price was still in our budget. We were picked up at the airport and drove back to Arusha were we met with David and our guide! We had a lost backage at the airport and david and his colleagues helped us to sort it out. After that we started our 4days safari! We really enjoyed the safari and the lodges were we stayed. Our guide was the best and could always answer all of our questions and explain us a lot about the animals! Our favorite experience was to spend the night in a tented lodge in Serengeti, it was magical! My partner mentionned that it would have liked a better car. Food provided was also very good and I could get a vegeterian option. I really recommend this tour operator and our guide for your next safari!!

Very good safari and service.
I contacted Kili Slope based on the good reviews, and I have to say I was not disappointed. David always replied quickly to my emails and made sure he could answer all my questions, and provide solutions according to my needs, like organising airport transfers very late/early.
The 4-day safari itself was really up to my expectations, as we could see the big 5 and many more. We were with Amani, who is a knowlegeable guide, and an experienced driver.
Overall impression: very satisfied, thank you Kili slope!

Excellent drivers; incredible trip
I had an absolutely amazing trip, where I saw lots of animals, incredible sunsets/landscapes, and met great people.
What made the trip even more amazing was my driver Salim/Simon. He was full of jokes, always happy, and incredible at finding animals. He adopted the itinerary to my taste and even offered hilarious extra's such as a local experience of eating ugali at a roadside cafe :') Spending 7 days with someone non-stop is a large commitment and Salim made it easy and fun; I would highly recommend any trip with Salim. I also had a chance to spend a day with Ziggy, who is great as well.
Only caveat for safaris in general: you should be very specific with your lodge/camp selection. Make sure to check the accommodation websites and to make sure you like the suggested properties, if not, ask for alternative suggestions that match your expectations. When you spend so much money on a trip, you want to make sure you are happy with all aspects of the trip :)

Thank you Kili Slope!
I have booked a 8 nights Safari in Tanzania between Tarangire - Lake Manyara - Lake Natron - Serengeti (north and central) - Ngorongoro - Lake Eyasi.
Since the booking David Maro, the owner of the company, has been really great, customizing the tour following my needs.
Everything was really professional since the first email and the booking process was really smooth.
Being a small company, Kili Slope has great care for their customers: the communication between the booking and the start of the Safari has always been accurate and effective.
Then, when the time for the safari arrived, everything from the beginning was absolutely fantastic!
1. the driver / guide, Jackson, is a safe driver and has great knolwedge of the parks and we were always there at the right time to see the best things: the river crossing by the wildebeest, the lions hunting, the leopard having his food, the cheetah with her babies...
Moreover he was always helpful in explaining things and the dynamics of wildlife
2. the car was really comfortable and clean. Water was provided every day
3. the accomodations were really good, especially the tented camps in the Serengeti
4. the itinerary was well designed, we never had to rush and had enough time to enjoy everything at the right pace
4. David Maro was really kind and wanted to meet me at the start and the end of the tour: this is great customer care!
It was my fifth experience in Africa and i have to admit that this safari in Tanzania was the best of my life.
Kili Slope is a reliable company and i would suggest to book with them over the biggest company in Arusha if you want to have a better customer experience.
