6 day Tanzania safari
We had recently gone on a 6 day safari with Viola tours and we couldnt have been more satisfied. From the booking stage and customisation to the actual tour, everything was handled without any problem. Violet was prompt on the email and answered any queries that came up.
For the tour itself, we had Frank, an experienced guide whose knowledge of the parks, environment and topography was really great. His spotting ability was also amazing, and often, we were hard pressed to see even with binoculars, what he had spotted with the naked eye. Apart from the animals, his knowledge of birds was also fantastic. From a sparrow to the secretary bird, he knew them all. He also found where the migration was and ensured that we saw a part of it.
The vehicle provided was also good, and we hardly felt the rough roads. Though we had a breakdown once, Frank attended to it promptly, and we were back on schedule in the least possible time.
All in all, a great experience and I would whole heartedly recommend Viola Tours.

Best Kilimanjaro hiking
Everything was fine, great guide William and his team tried their best! Excellent acclimatization schedule, William speaks English very good and told us a lot of interesting information about Kilimanjaro and Tanzania during our hiking. William and his team provide very good service and took care about us whole time! The only one thing we want to improve - the waiter should learn English.

Fantastic, Perfect, Lovely Trip In Tanzania
Let me start out by saying that finding a company to handle your Kilimanjaro trek and safari can be truly overwhelming and scary. I mean, you’re spending a lot of money and you don’t want to have any surprises. I can tell you without a doubt, Viola Tours & Travel is 100% the company you should work with – for their professionalism, their above-and-beyond customer service, and their transparency. They handle almost everything for you besides a few things such as, traveler’s insurance and your visa, so you can leave the stress behind.
Trip: honeymoon / private tour / comfort level / Kilimanjaro trek + safari (Tanzania)
When we arrived in Kilimanjaro, we stayed at the Karama Lodge the night before heading out on our trek. It was such a beautiful nature lodge, and I had one of the best massages of my life there! The food was exquisite, and the staff was very attentive. I loved the resident monkeys and cats that came to visit as we walked the grounds

Family of 6 Safari.
Amazing experience of seeing animals close up and roaming so freely. Frank was a great guide and driver. He was caring throughout and was very knowledgeable, especially about birds.
The African landscapes of animals, earth and sky were very memorable.
