Excellent , Fantastic guide. Special thanks to Thomas for making trip a memorable experience!!!
The service lived up to expectations. KhiliHolidays ensured that we were informed about every little detail prior to the event.
The only thing I wish is that this package included Mt Kilimanjaro tour instead of Lake Manyara. Lake Manyara does not add any new perspective after visiting Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.

Great Experience, flexible arrangements
Edward our driver and David our cook collected myself and my wife from our Arusha accommodation early on day one. We were the only ones on this safari. We visited three parks, Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. Our first night was in a fixed tent with toilet and shower whereas the other three were under canvas alongside other safari tours sharing facilities. David managed magnificent meals cooked from ingredients taken with us and made on a single gas burner in the communal kitchens. We had more than enough to eat.
The safari allowed us to see all big five animals close up from our extending roof six seat Landrover, often lions, giraffe and zebra were just a few feet away. Edward made sure that we saw everything possible. Ngorongoro crater was most impressive.
We were at our request taken to the western gate to continue our African adventure to be put on board a bus to Mwanza where we caught the train to Dar and continued our travels to Zanzibar.
An excellent trip especially with Edwards animal knowledge, good spoken English and David's cooking.

Amazing experience
Kiliholidays tour is the perfect agency if you want to discover the real Tanzanian hospitality. We meet our driver, Thomas, at the airport, at 0:00 am, so, really late, we were really tired so after 45 minutes drive, we arrived at our hotel (included in the tour price). It was comfortable, with hot shower and morning breakfast.
At 8:30 we meet Thomas again and our new friend Daniel, our "stomach engineer".
Thanks to Thomas we meet all the Big 5 and a lot of animals in the serengeti, in Ngorongoro and in all the others games reserve that we visited.
We also joined a cultural tour with the Hadzabe tribe, we went hunting with bow and arrow with our translator, Tom, that translate from Hadza to English ( Hadza is a language use in that tribe, where people use to clap theyr tongue in order to communicate).
After this last adventure we come back to Arusha and in our hotel.
All the safari was by camp site. The camps are safe and really clean, even if they are pubblic. Kiliholidays, but also the other company, respect the tourist and, above all, the enviromet and the animals.
I just want to say thank you to Thomas and Daniel, that allowed us to discover Tanzania, and furthermore we discovered 2 beautifull people really professional and funny. I hope to see them again in my life

Really good organized kilimanjaro Tour
We (couple, 29 years old) had a great experience with our Team and the Rest of the group at the machame Route. The Team really took a lot efforts to make us happy, more than we expected at a Mountain Tour. Keep on :)

Great safari, professional driver, customized schedule - the best price!
Our guides, Tony from Kenya and Bakali from Tanzania, are professional. They do always find an animal far away while driving and get the perfect position quickly thus we can make a wonderful shoot. Under their knowledgeable instruction, we can recognize many African wildlife from it now! During the 9 days game, we spot the Big 5 and many kinds of African birds, even we were at the scene which lions hunt for buffalo! This is awesome!
Our guides are good drivers as well, they conquer the muddy roads which leave some damaged vehicles on. And our chefs are considerate, they designed the good meals that every dish we ate always better than before till the end of tour.
This is an unforgettable safari game! Makes me strong will to visit Africa again!

The summon of wildness
The decent arrangement of the whole experience was extremely impressed me. Not only the guide but also the cooks are very professional. Therefore, we could have a pleasant journey and procured an unforgettable memory. Everything was beyond my expectation. The food tasted scrumptious and the meal got better as the journey went on. In short, if you give me another chance, I would absolutely choose Kiliholiday again.

always keep the promise
first, I want to say that our drivers, Edward and Tony, are excellent. they are thoughtful, sincere and really good at finding wild animals.
They can both tell you so many things about animals during the whole trip, which is enriching. Also, the chefs, Dannel and Innocent, are adorable. Their meals are tasty and will definitely satisfy you. overall, kiliholidays takes really good care of us.

Unforgettable experience in my life
We have good communication during this trip. If it need,travel agency would satisfy our needs as possible as they can. Our tour guide in Kenya and Tanzania-- Fred and Edward, both of them are experienced and careful. We met so many rainy days , and the road was very difficult to drive. They conquered all obstacles and sucessfully took us to see what we want to see, like big five, migration . Really thank you, kiliholidays.

The most perfect things in my hole life.
I love the tour they prepare for us, we've discussed for a long time, they respect our every opinion let our pre-tour be perfect.In Kenya, our guide is very nice, he introduced animals in chinese let me feel touching, sometimes his chinese we can't recognize, he'll show his little card which is very cute, I think he is very very diligently. In Tanzania, our guide Edward knowledgeable, he can introduced every animal include birds, In Tarangire National park there are lots of elephants, once he saw a mandible bone of elephants lie on the street, he just get down the car and show us how to count elephants's age, after we finished our safari we just want to go to bar, he acompanying us hole nignt for voluntary, I think he is the best guide that I have never had, all the things let my Africa trip be perfect, thanks a lot to Kiliholidays Safari.
