"Awesome"
My friend and I are back from a 12-day trip with Hekima Safaris - a climb of Kilimanjaro (Lemosho route) and a 5 day safari, with a few rest and travels days mixed in. I can say without any hesitation whatsoever that this was a trip of a lifetime and that we picked the right travel company with which to entrust all of the details.
Picking a travel company for a Kilimanjaro trek requires a leap of faith - they are mostly local companies without any brand recognition. I found Hekima Safaris through my own research, and they quickly won my confidence. The sales manager who fielded my initial inquires, Richard, is simply extraordinary- helpful, thorough, responsive, and professional without being pushy. Long after we committed to this trip, Richard was my primary point of contact, and I am very grateful for all of his help. Every question about everything- packing, logistics, preparation- Richard was my go to person and he always got me the information I needed. Thank you Richard and of course the owner Mopoo (Eli :)!
Our lead mountain guide and his team were likewise excellent- the mountain guides, cooks, porters, you name it- every last person we dealt with excelled at their job and was committed to our safety, well being and comfort every step along the way. Richard and his team did a great job of communicating with us, and likewise keeping the mood upbeat. Make no mistake about it, this is a serious trek, but this team of professionals got us both to the summit and back- we are very grateful for the entire team for leading us through it all!
A tip for those considering this trip- get the private toilet. The public toilets at the campsites and heavily used, potentially a long, cold walk from your tent and generally disgusting. The private toilet is a small price to pay for sanitary conditions.
On the safari, our guide Maulid and Ambrosia was outstanding. They seems to know everything about everything out there! They are very personable and was really committed to making sure they tailored each day to fit our needs. We very much enjoyed his company on the long, bumpy rides across the 3 parks we visited. They are dedication to us on this trip- our safety, comfort and enjoyment- is a tribute to they are skills as guides.
Finally, all of the hotels booked through Hekima Safaris were great, and also a shout out to the drivers who seamlessly transferred us from place to place Ambrosia :-). Hekima has a real 'spirit of customer service' that is evident in every interaction we had with everyone before, during and after the trip.
In closing, I simply cannot say enough good things about Hekima and the trip in general- thanks to everyone who made it happen.

We had a great 2-day safari to Tarangire and Ngorongoro, expertly orangised by Hekima Safari. Many thanks to Richard for arranging the trip and tour guides Victor and Ambrose for their attention to detail, enthusiasm and humour.

Richard is knowledgeable, patient, and communicates very well.
Hekima Safaris did not disappoint. Richard ensured we had an amazing experience from beginning to end. From pre-planning, transportation, carrying luggage, effectively communicating, scheduling, and going to the best places for food, shopping, hanging out, etc….they showed us an amazing time and made our experience enjoyable and memorable. They are reliable, patient, and provide outstanding services. I highly recommend Hekima Safaris for your next adventures.
