A nice and beautifull trip with a really good guide
Firstly, the entire travel planning phase allowed us to see the seriousness of our contact who was able to adapt to our timing needs during our stay. They also helped us plan our journey from Zanzibar to Dar es Salaam. However, upon our arrival on the mainland, we were unpleasantly surprised to discover that we needed to pay in Shillings instead of dollars. It is important for the tour operator to clearly inform future clients about this, as the information, if present, is not prominent enough. Consequently, we had to spend some time upon arrival exchanging our dollars into local currency. Despite this, everything went smoothly, both in terms of transportation and accommodation. We would like to highlight several positive aspects about our guide, Paul, whom we highly recommend to potential travelers! He is always there when you need him, yet he also allows you to fully enjoy your moments. He is an excellent driver and has extensive knowledge about the area. During the safari, his perseverance and desire to satisfy us led him to spend extra time in the late afternoon, ultimately allowing us to see lions and elephants! It was a magnificent moment. We would like to thank Paul once again. In summary, while there were some pieces of information we would have liked to know beforehand (such as the payment method), overall, it was a highly successful experience!

A man who takes very good care of his clients and has a lot of knowledge about the animals.
We went on safari for 4 days 3 nights and this was a lot of fun! Everything was well organised, the food was delicious and we saw all the animals we wanted to see. We want to thank our tour guide, Abraham, for taking such good care of us and sharing his knowledge about the animals. We also want to thank Daniël for preparing very good meals and making sure we ate more than sufficient. We had an amazing experience and we would recommend it to everyone who is looking for a great adventure.

Unforgettable Tanzanian Safari with Kiliholidays - Edward, Mr Mood & Mack are amazing!!
My recent safari adventure with Kiliholidays Tours & Safaris was nothing short of a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the moment we embarked on our journey, the team ensured that we were well taken care of, providing exceptional service and value for money.
Our knowledgeable and skilled guide, Edward, went above and beyond to provide us with an unforgettable wildlife experience. His expertise and passion for wildlife shone through, and I'd rate him 11/10 stars. Not only did he know where to find the most spectacular sightings, but he also shared intriguing stories and facts about the animals we encountered.
In addition to our incredible guide, Mr. Mood, our talented cook, made sure our culinary experience was top-notch. As a vegetarian, I was delighted by the variety of delicious dishes he prepared, especially his signature fresh onion soup. It's evident that he takes great pride in his work, ensuring that every meal was not only tasty but also nourishing.
Before our trip, we communicated with Mack from Kiliholidays, who was extremely responsive and helpful on both WhatsApp and email. The itinerary he crafted was professionally designed and visually captivating, making it worthy of Instagram. Mack also offered us a fantastic price for the trip, making it 100% worth every penny. The entire journey was well-planned and executed seamlessly, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the Tanzanian experience.
Overall, I highly recommend Kiliholidays Tours & Safaris for anyone looking to experience the magic of Tanzania. Their commitment to excellence in communications, service, value for money, and reliability is unparalleled. Don't miss out on the opportunity to embark on this unforgettable adventure!

Kiliholidays is the real hidden gem of Tanzania. We chose it because it was an affordable option that provided a wonderful onboarding process. When we booked our safari we got a professional personalized itinerary with a shareable link for friends and family. Mack was wonderful in helping us book flights while in Tanzania and made us feel comfortable with the payment and logistics process.
Edward was everything you could hope for in a Safari guide. He was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and made the trip more than what it would have been without him. The camaraderie we shared was not something you can find online or pay a premium price for. When I recommend safari in Tanzania to friends and family I specifically mention Kiliholidays by name. When we ran out of local currency, Edward was happy to front a couple shillings given that we were able to pay him back when we found an ATM. He also served as a liaison to the local environment and helped us navigate communicating with the local community and living in a novel environment. We really enjoyed spending time with him.
Mr. Mood was our private chef and was a delight. His food was not only delicious, but he was quick to take note of any dietary restricitons and had meals prepared for each of us that catered to our needs. Another pleasant personality, he made the trip that much richer. We were cracking jokes the whole time!
If you are considering Kiliholidays, you are considering a very good option.

Professional and reliable.
Everything about this holiday was absolutely amazing. We were well looked after from the moment we stepped out of Kilimanjaro Airport. We had a four-day safari with our excellent driver and guide, Abraham. His knowledge of the animals and their habitats was impressive! We saw all the big five plus many more! Every day was packed with new impressions and we felt quite exhausted at the end of each day. All the lodges we stayed in were of high standard. I would highly recommend Kiliholidaystour for an unforgettable experience!

Great Experience with Kiliholidays
We had an amazing safari experience in Tanzania with Kiliholidays! We did a 4-day safari that included the Serengeti, Tarangire, and the Ngorongoro Crater.
Our guide, Edward, was exceptional. He was an excellent driver who navigated the rough terrain with ease and always made sure we were safe. He also had a great eye for spotting animals and knew the best places to find them, which made our safari experience even more exciting. He was always friendly, helpful, and accommodating, and made sure that we were comfortable and enjoying our trip.
We ended up having some flights change, which resulted in us needing to move around which days we were in which national parks. Edward and team were very reasonable in working with us and suggesting a revised plan, even though we were already mid-way through the trip.
Overall, we had an unforgettable trip, and I would highly recommend Kiliholidays Tours and Edward as a guide to anyone looking for an amazing safari experience in Tanzania.

Excellent service, professional guides
We really lived safari to Mikumi National Park with Kiliholidays Tours & Safaris. Everything was smooth, guides were excellent and they were always thinking in a way that we as a group of 12 people, would feel us comfortable and happy. Everything prior the safari trip was smooth, answers came fast and my trust was gained from the beginning.
So we really liked their service and will recommend Kiliholidays Tours and Safaris to others!

Family friendly tour operator
We had a very nice time with Kiliholidays Tours & Safari in Tanzania. Our two guides have fulfilled all our wishes. Already after the second day we had seen "The big five" and this not in the Serengeti. This shows the class of our guides Edward and Abraham who accompanied us to the right places in the parks and gave very interesting background information about the animals, plants and trees. The two were really great and I/we can only recommend them. Thank you again Edward and Abraham for the wonderful time between Christmas and New Year.
