BEST company for Safari!!!
We went to 3 days safari (Ngorongoro and Serengeti ) and 1 day Masai village with Kilimanjaro Vikings after clibming Mt.Kilimanjaro.
The director Charlie arranged all process politely for us. So we had just fun at ease.
If you want to enjoy safari with Kilimanjaro, I definitely recommend kilimanjaro vikings the most !!

We enjoyed so much with our gentole guide!!
We went to 3 days safari ( Tarangire N.P. / Ngorongoro C.A. / Lake Manyara N.P. ). Our guide explained in detail in English or Swahili language. ( I can understand Swahili as i live in Tanzania as a volunteer. But his English was perfect.) We are satisfied with this safari with Kilimanjaro Vikings so much. Our guide always took care of us, and dealed with our requests that we wanted to see any animals. We thought our guide was so professional as he didn't even count the tip we gave in front of us. We felt so comfortable about it.

100% recommended for Safari
Me and a friend booked a 4 day safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro) with Kilimanjaro Vikings and I can absolutely recommend this.
I was a volunteer in Moshi so I had the possibility to search on site for the best tour operator.
So I also made Charlie, the owner of Kilimanjaro Vikings. He made us a really good price and he was very helpful with every kind of questions.
So we booked with them.
The driver guide picked us up and we went to Tarangire. He was very nice and taught us on the drive about the landscape and about history.
All the way in the national parks we benefited from his knowledge about wildlife. So we saw all the big five and a lot of more beautiful wildlife moments.
We had our own chef who made really good food for us. The tents were really comfortable, so we could even enjoy the trip above the drive.
So thanks for the whole Kilimanjaro Vikings team, they made our adventure to one of the best things I've ever done!

2 days safari
We booked a 2 days safari. On the first day we went to the serengeti and later that day we arrived at a lodge where we spent the night. On the second day we starded early for the drive to the ngorogoro crater. And it was beautiful! We saw many different animals. I can truly recommend to go there. The whole trip was well organized, and the guide hade a gode knowledge about the areas and the animals.

I experienced a great trip for a fair price.
The communication with our tour guide was simple and good, he knows good english. The accomodation was simple, clean and enjoyable. On the safari tour our guide asked for our wishes and always knew where to go for seeing animals.

Great 3 day safari
Following our climb up Kilimanjaro with another Company, we decided to do a 3 day, 2 night safari with Kili vikings, visiting Tarangire national park, Lake Manyara national park and Ngorogoro crater reservation area. We met Charlie in Moshi the day before the safari to settle payment and sort details. Charlie was very nice and informative, and lead us through our options for the safari since the group we were meant to go with from Moshi had cancelled. In the end we joined a couple going from Arusha, and had to pay an additional $50 to get to the airport after the safari which had previously been included in the price. We also had to pay an extra 5% to pay by card, which hadn't been mentioned in our email correspondence. So we were slightly disappointed by these extra fees, but paid them, tried to forget about them and looked forward to the safari!
On safari we had a great time and saw a huge array of wildlife. We stayed in small huts in the evening near lake Manyara at a site called panorama camp, which had excellent views. We left our bags there during the days. The hot food provided in evenings and for breakfast was good. The packed lunches could have been slightly better, but in such great surroundings it was difficult to be unhappy. Our driver was very well informed and didn't struggle with any of our questions. His English was also very good. Our only criticism was that we often had to ask questions to get information from him, rather than him offering it voluntarily. The safari car was in decent shape with new seats and water was provided throughout the trip. Each day we did a full day safari, with our driver being very good at spotting animals, as well as listening to the radio to track down the more rare sights. Highlights included cheetahs, Lions (metres away from our vehicles), Elephants and Rhinos.
After the safari we were dropped at the airport in good time to catch our flight home. Overall we had a great time, and were very close to giving a 5 star score, but felt like the experience did have room for improvement, if only slightly.
