Good but needs some improvements
We did with Kiliholidays a 6 days ascent to Kilimanjaro and a 4 days Safari. In total we were 3 people.
The ascent of Kilimanjaro to Kiliholidays actually sub-contracts to another company that does just that. Despite the friendliness of the main guides, we felt that they lacked a bit of sensitivity to communicate the difficulties of the climb, why we had to do certain things like drink plenty of water or go slowly. They need much more organization and professionalism.
On the third day one of us started having vomiting, headaches and the oxygen level was low and we ended up giving up on the climb.
Even though we only did 3 days instead of 6, we tipped 300 dollars and at that moment the friendliness of the guides ended, being offended. We know that their work is not easy, especially for those who carry the material, but we already paid enough for the climb and so the 300 dollar tip would be more than enough for even more having worked half the days.
This tipping situation shouldn't even exist, it seems like an obligation that later causes people to falsely like it.
After Kilimanjaro we asked Mack to book us a few more days in a hotel and everything went well, Mack was even kind enough to offer us a guided tour of the Mt Meru Waterfall which was very good.
On Safari we visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Ngorongoro Crater park, our guide God's Son was excellent, spoke very good English, had a lot of experience and knowledge of the animals and the whole region. He knew perfectly where the animals could be, he was super calm and sensitive enough to understand what tourists want.
The jeep, despite being old, not having the most modern comforts or panoramic windows, did not break down or have any problems, which turns out to be the most important thing. Anyway, if in the future they manage to have better cars, they will be able to provide a better experience.
Before booking the trip with this agency I exchanged several emails with Mack and he always gave quick answers, compared to others I only noticed that he could make suggestions based on our briefing. The payment method, fees, tips and documentation should have been clearer and simpler even though everything went well.

Professional
The whole safaritrip has been an adventure for me and my son, and Kiliholidays is a very serious company that has added to the positive experience. Their service is very good and they take care of their customers. Serengeti was a fantastic experience and Ngorongoro, or the garden of Eden, was breathtaking by its beauty and peacefulness. Thanks a lot, Killiholidays.

Very pacient, wise and passionate
The service was very good for the price i would say it was an excelent option, but the principal and best thing was the tour itself where you could see animals with your very eyes. That was life changing

Very good we were able to appreciate the beauty of the landscapes
In terms of quality/price, very good, we spent four superb days where we were able to appreciate the landscapes and the different species
We had the pleasure of seeing a scene of the lion 🦁engusting its prey a few meters from us, we were alone. We thank Thomas for having had this privilege
