It was absolutely perfect!
We had a perfect safari with the tour guide Thomas from kiliholiday.
Organisation: First of all everything was very well organised. transport from and to the Airport was even included. Mac (main contact) is a really cool guy who is very dedicated and you can ask him everything. He always answers in a few minutes.
The safari: Thomas is a very well experienced tour guide and a very good driver. He also has a very good Knowledge of the Different animals and answered every question. In total we saw six Lions and douzens of elephants, Zebras, wilder beasts and so on. But the highlight were the lions.
Food: everything was included (breakfast, lunch and Dinner). You get a really big lunch box so you will never be hungry.
Conclusion: in Our opinion the best company.

All that was agreed upon has been fulfilled
Kiliholidays Tours & Safaris presented me with a proposal for the safari I chose, and it didn't disappoint me, since the hotels, lodges or campgrounds, transfers, everything was agreed, was fulfilled.
We visited all the planned parks and had the opportunity to see the wonder of being in a place where wildlife can live its life.

A dream come true
We always wanted to live a safari in Tanzania, and Kiliholidays made the dream a reality. The accomodations were interesting and amazing, and the experience overall was incredible. Our Guide, Justin, was so nice, so funny and so attentive, the trip was perfect. Everything was planned very easily and clearly, and all went perfect, sticking to the plan.

Everything was fine.
The hotel in Arusha people very kindly end the hotel clean. Tanaka lodge super and clean. Our guide agostino was the best we find for us all animals in the parks. For me the best park is Serengeti . All was better than I think

Amazing trip to Serengeti
We had a stunning trip to Serengeti. From the first contact with owner Mack communication was perfect. All our wishes were accommodate at any time. Our driver Thoma was not onöy having amazing wildlife knowledge and spotting skills but as well he always tried to avoid the crowds of other cars, what allowed ius to have a very private experience of Serengeti. Of course as well the stomac engineer Daniel did a fantastic job, the food was so so good... Thanks again to the whole crew for an unforgettable experience. We would definitely choose Kiliholidays Tours again.

Well-organized and itinerary exactly as described!
I am so glad we booked with Kiliholidays! Mack, the owner of the tour company, was excellent in communicating with me via email! He was quick to respond to all of my questions and concerns. We booked two tours: Mt. Kilimanjaro 6-day Marangu route and also a 3 night/4 day safari. Both were amazing and unforgettable experiences! For Mt. Kilimanjaro tour: what can I say, we LOVED our guides Paroko and Baracka!!! They were so friendly, encouraging, helpful and wonderful to talk to! Our porters and cook were also fantastic! Perhaps bring an extra blanket to keep you warm during the cold nights as the sleeping bags they provided could have been better, but other than that, we had a great time! For our safari, we went to Tarangire, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. Each park was beautiful and our guide, Thomas, was excellent! He was able to find so many animals for us. It was crazy how sharp his eye was! We saw the big 4 on the first day thanks to him! We stayed at Farm of Dreams Lodge and Tukaone Camp. WOW!!! Loved both!!! Loved the comfort of a wonderful hotel at Farm of Dreams Lodge and the awesome experience of “glamping” at Tukaone!!! Very glad we booked with Kiliholidays! Very transparent, trustworthy company that delievered what they promised in our discussions!

Very responsive--Kiliholidays took care of all the logistics & planning; highly recommended.
Our group of 3 HIGHLY recommends Edward as guide! He was fun, knowledgable & very responsive to our interests. (He even squeezed in an extra 1/2 trip to a coffee farm, just because we asked.) If you're lucky enough to get him, tell him we said "Jambo!"
Really like how Kiliholidays organized this 5 day tour, taking care of all logistics, including pick up from airport. Each night we stayed at a different location, & it was all very easy/well-planned. Even camp sites were more like "glamping", so no hardship on city folks or those in less-than-athletic shape. We saw a TON of animals each day! Seriously--leopards 4 days IN A ROW!

Trip of a life time
Kiliholidays tours is a great company who did an excellent job communicating and planning our trip to Tanzania. Mack and Edward were great host for the week safari. Our guide Edward is a world class person who goes out of his way to ensure that everyone is safe and comfortable during the various journey.
I would recommend kiliholidays tours to all my friends and family without a doubt. This trip was one of the greatest experiences of my life thanks to Edward.

Very good service. Picked up, drooped off and easy contact. We were looked after for our whole trip!
We had a great 4 day Safari in the Masai mara and got to see the big 5. The bus was really comfortable and our driver was top class. The company were really easy to contact, flexible and everything went smoothly! We would highly recommend them if you are thinking about a Safari tour. Thanks Kiliholidays.
