Kilimanjaro Machame Route - Perfect!
5/5

As there are so many tour operators offering a kilimanjaro trek, only the people that organize and accompany your trip and the team that will lead you to uhuru peak make the difference. We had a totally stunning experience with Migration Expedition as we made it to the top via machame route. I had a really long e-mail-correpondence with amos to organize our whole trip to tanzania and he answered all my questions fast & comprehensive. Amos picked us up at the airport and we felt in really good hands from the first moment. He made us feel real welcome. In the evening we got to know our guide Nicholas. On the next day we started our trek with our guides Nicholas und Rasheed. They took so much care of us. Always in with some motivating stories, singing some tanzanian songs and playing the newest songs from tanzanian nightlife by phone. It was awesome. No question that these guys took is to uhuru peak! We can highly recommend the migration expedition team including Amos (CEO), Nicholas (Guide), Rasheed (Assistent Guide), Ramazan (Cook) and Armani (Waitor). After kilimanjaro we had a trip to a coffee plantation and a waterfall with Amos and Nicholas. That was also a real nice day. Talked a lot about the different tribes and cultures in Tanzania, thats a big plus of local tour operators, because they know so much about their country and they like to talk about it. And then we made a safari (4 days, 3 nights) with our guide Innocent and Ramazan (Cook). We had so much fun these 4 days and the guys were knowledgeable, experienced and tried everything to show us as many animals as possible. All in all, perfect trip that we will never forget!

Amos took complete care of us and guided us through our itinerary
5/5

While there were several tour companies to choose from we chose Migration and Kili Expedition tours because Amos ( I think he is the owner of the business) responded to us quickly and completely answered all our questions. While we were hesitant about arriving in a completely foreign country with just a name to rely on, all our doubts were washed away as soon as we met Amos. We were not sure if he would meet us or someone else but it was him. He made us feel comfortable right away. All our tours and travel arrangements were planned and executed properly. He offered us rides when he was around to the local areas and arranged for people to meet us wherever we were. He even got us masseuses to our hotel room after our climb on Kilimanjaro. His guides were professional and friendly. The kili guide, Roghert, was a speed record holder up the mountain six years ago. He was patient with us. The safari guide, (forgot his name ask Amos) tried his best to get us to see all the animals at ngorongoro crater (we even saw the illusive black rhino) and drove extra for us to see additional things and even shop. I would highly recommend Amos and his company for your tours. I do recommend however that you sort out tipping guidelines ahead so you know what is expected. I recommend this for all tours and other typically tipping scenarios while in a new country.

2nd safari with these wonderful people, by request, Erasto Ninah was our guide again!
5/5

This trip was even better than the first, which I didn't think was possible! Amos and Ninah are sincerely dedicated to making it an unforgettable experience. We bombarded them both with questions about everything, birds, culture, food, lodging, mammals, etc., and they were more than happy to answer them! I will be coming back for yet another safari very soon, Serengeti here I come!

Because of Erasto Ninah and Amos, Migration & Kili is the only company I will travel with!
5/5

Amos went above and beyond to make sure our group was well informed and our entire trip went smoothly. Erasto Ninah, who truly loves what he does, proved that an experienced guide makes all the difference! I can't wait to go on another safari with them! Very highly recommend!

Amazing Experience
5/5

Innocent Malaki was an excellent guide: knowledgeable & very fun! He made the experience for me at the safari, and I was very lucky to have him as my guide. It was a really great experience, and I would love to go again if I have the chance! Thank you for such a great time

Amazing experience and service
5/5

Climbed Kilimanjaro as part of a charity expedition and the moment we landed received such a warm welcome. The guides and porters were very friendly and helpful, even when I struggled due to altitude sickness I received nothing but support and motivation to carry on. Without their help I wouldn't have made it to summit day! 100% would recommend this company and experience!

Asante to Innocent Mlaki - Migration & Kili Expedition Tours
5/5

I had such a fantastic safari with these guys and Innocent really made the whole experience for me. A very knowledgeable guy who was happy to answer the endless questions I bombarded him with.

I was so excited to see these animals in the wild and Innocent managed to spy things in the bushes that we could barely see even when he was pointing them out to us. Give this man a raise!

Great food, great organisation, and competitively priced

Asanteni sasa!

The coffee tour and hike to the waterfall was a highlight of our family reunion.
4/5

There were 20 of us, ages 1-60. Our competent, safe driver picked us up in Moshi mid-morning. Our drive took us right up to the base of Kilimanjaro and to the village home of a family who grows coffee. We entered their tidy compound and were warmly greeted by our host and guide, Oscar. Oscar gave a good presentation on single source coffee. He demonstrated every step of the process of taking the bean from tree to cup. Everyone got a chance to try the husking machine (handmade by Oscars grandfather, I believe), to grind the beans by hand with a 'pilao', (huge mortar and pestle used for pounding grains into flour). Water boiled over the fire, the grounds were sprinkled liberally into the pot, and then the brew was poured through a strainer into our cups. A perfect cup! This was a most delightful event. Most of us ordered coffee which Oscar roasted and delivered to us the following day.
After our bag lunch, Oscar took us on the hike to the waterfall. Our path was well beaten, narrow and often had us teetering on the edge of the ridge. The views of the valley below, the village homes and the gardens took our breath away. Our guide peppered our walk with interesting facts about the culture and the flora and fauna around us. His love for his home sparked enthusiasm in all of us. We all made it to the waterfall after walking an easy 1+ hours (it took us longer than it might normally as we had small children making the trek). We spent some time playing in the water before it was time to hike back. This tour was so refreshing, fun for all ages. Our guide was excellent and communicated well in English. The logistics of this tour ran smoothly, thanks to Amos who accompanied us the whole day.
