Life time experience with Popote
Just come back from Tanzania with Popote company. This trip was a time life experience with a great team for ascending Uhuru Peak, via Lemosho route. Thank you for Raymond and Jamali, our guide. Also the chef Boca for his amazing food. Our server was exceptionnel and all the porters. It was a great fun until this end.
A unforgettable trip.

The perfect Tanzanian getaway from a trustworthy, local company. Choose Popote!
I chose Popote Africa Adventures for my Kilimanjaro climb after hearing great reviews, and I couldn’t have had a more accommodating service on the safari. My driver, Bea’tus, was trustworthy, professional and more than helpful in providing me with the best views and sights in both Tarangerie and Serengeti National Park. He provided unique details along the way about the wildlife, plants and Tanzanian culture, had a very good sense of humor, and let me stop and look at my favorite animal (the lion - which he found two for me!) for as long as I liked.
The lodging with Popote was also stunning. One of my lodges was actually a tented lodge within Serengeti National Park. The staff were extraordinarily friendly, and the lodge was eloquently decorated with tribal prints and had full-functioning faucets so it felt just like a hotel room. I should add that I requested to upgrade from camping safari to the lodge option last minute with Popote, and Redeem and Sabino, the Popote managers, were very helpful and friendly every step of the way.
Thank you, thank you, thank you to the Popote staff for letting me see my favorite animals and getting me to the top of Kilimanjaro at 22 y/o!!! Pole pole!

Incroyable !
Kilimanjaro and Safari with Meals: just incredible!
Popote is a local agency, with no European intermediary, and that's exactly what we were looking for. The exchange with Sabino was very easy, he was always available to answer all our questions quickly. Everything was very well organized from start to finish, whether for transfers or hotels.
KILIMANJARO
We climbed Kilimanjaro Machame route in 7 days. The whole team were great and caring to us from start to finish, with lots of attention throughout the stay.
The tent was very comfortable with good mattresses. The food was excellent with 3 hot meals a day, and plenty of it.
The ascent would not have been possible without our 2 extraordinary guides Mtey and Omari and without all the superb team of cooks and porters: Emmanuel the future guide, Jérémia the cook, Rachidi, Issa, Pau, Msorongo, Junia, Ibrahim and Emmanuel .
It has been a wonderful week by your side. Beyond a trek on the Golden Roof of Africa, it is a real human experience. We will not forget you. Neither yeyeeeee!
SAFARI
We made 5 days of camping safari (one day in Tarangire, 3 days in Serengeti and one day in Ngorongoro crater) with our French speaking driver guide Denis and our cook Ali.
Denis, a real ace at the wheel, allowed us to see many animals and observe them for as long as we wanted. We didn't expect to see so many and so close it was amazing.
The car was very comfortable, as were the tents we slept in. The campsite allowed us to be as close as possible to the animals and to hear them at night. Finally, Ali's meals were delicious.
We had an unforgettable experience with the Popote Africa Adventures team, whether for the ascent of Kilimanjaro or the Safari. We recommend them 1000%, you can go with your eyes closed and your stay will be amazing!

Amazing trip to Tanzania
This trip to Tanzania with Popote Adventures exceeded all my expectations.
Sobino helped with the itinerary and organized all the permits, accommodation and activities. We had a great vehicle, stayed at top lodges and had the best experience at the parks. We've seen all of the Big 5 and a lot more.
We had a great guide Michael who was patient and professional.
I highly recommend Popote Adventures.

Amazing Kilimanjaro trip!
An incredible 7-days on Kilimanjaro, Lemosho route. Our guides Godwin and John were fantastic, knowledgeable and encouraging! The whole team were great fun and always smiling. The food and tents were perfect. We could not recommend Popote enough, it was a trip to remember!
Life changing Machame route
My friend Lisa and I completed our 7 day Machame trek mid-June 2024 with Popote and we highly recommended this company. Our trek was so fun and with the help of the guides Nelson and Thadeus, our cook Raf, server Niko, and the porters, we made it to the summit. The whole team were quick to help us in any way they could - during the daily hikes and while at camp. They cared for our wellbeing whilst also being playful, funny, and a joy to be around. The excellent support began before the trek with Cynthia who answered all questions and provided support before and after the trek. Even after we finished, the Popote team helped us around Moshi town getting organised for the rest of our time in Tanzania. The trek was the highlight of our Tanzania trip and one of the most challenging, rewarding, and moving experiences that we will always cherish. Thank you Popote team for the trek but more importantly for making us feel like friends and family.
Highly rewarding Kilimanjaro Trek with Popote!
My friend Maryanne and I did the 7-day Machame route in mid June of this year. It was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had, and Popote Africa is to thank for that. Our guides, Thadeus and Nelson, were knowledgeable, encouraging, attentive, and generally very fun to be around! This also goes for the rest of our group of porters as well. The food made by our chef was nutritious and very filling, and it served to us by Nico, who was so kind and diligent in his effort to make us comfortable and content. Our tents were of good quality, and our sleeping bags very warm and cozy for the cool nights. The private toilet was also a huge bonus. I feel so incredibly lucky to have had Popote as our team for this profound experience that I'll remember for the rest of my life!
