Fantastic safari experience
5/5

I had a fantastic 4-days safari with Hekima. Our tour guide and driver Sam is experienced and friendly. He took us to spot dozens of animals and also made our journey full of fun by storytelling his unforgettable experiences of safari. The chef never failed to fulfill our appetite. We went to tarangiere and seregenti national park, as well as ngorongoro, the views were diverse and breathtaking. The Hekima staff at Hekima house treated us as family when we were back from safari. Eliza is young passionate entrepreneur, I was really inspired by his story of setting up Hekima safari.

Excellent Game Drive
5/5

I had an amazing experience with Hekima Safaris. Very friendly and hospitable staff. We went to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. In the end was a relaxing boating on the lake Duluti. It was so wonderful to see everything that had seen in National Geographic and other channels in real. Like just in front of your eyes, sometimes very close. We saw baby cheetahs, hunting lions, rhinos, a funny honey badger and a lot more. We did not see a leopard, but it's a game drive, not a zoo, right? Next time! Good meal, nights in the tents under an awesome starry sky included.
Thanks to great driver Samir, chef Marcus, Elieza, Jackson and others!
Highly recommended!

Perfect
5/5

My family did our first ever trip to northern circuit of Tanzania through Hekima safaris .Mopoo was our go organizer and he did an outstanding job not only making sure we saw everything we wanted to and more on our safari but connecting with us on a personal level and going above and beyond to make us feel welcome.I would recommend our guide Juma and Hekima Safaris to anybody considering amazing safaris vacation or Mt Kilimanjaro.The entire Hekima team provided a well-coordinated and wonderful safari that exceeded our (admittedly high) expectations, at a competitive price.Ahsante Sana.

Thank you
5/5

Professional,knowledgeable, and good value for money! When we 1st decided to travel to Tanzania, it was hard to choose the TO!I was nervous about selecting a good travel company because I knew it would either make or break our trip. After different research, I end up with amazing reviews from Hekima Safaris and we booked 9 days Safaris. Everything went as planned from Jackson to the rest of the team. Thank you Hekima Safaris, If anyone is thinking of traveling to Tanzania, do not hesitate to book with Hekima Safaris. I can confidently say that they are one of the BEST in the business!

Caring and Inspiring Hiking Crew
5/5

We enjoyed every minute of our amazing trip from the slopes of Kilimanjaro to the Ngorongoro Crater! The hike was hard and we would never have made it to the top without the kindness and assistance of the amazing crew members. Guides are highly qualified and knowledgeable, cooks are amazing and globally the whole team is caring and stimulating. We appreciated all the nice gestures they thought of.

We also hired Hekima for our 2-day safari after the hike: organization was great and the hotel that were selected were amazing with a special mention for Melia Ngorongoro.

We highly recommend this TO should you decide to climb Kill and doing safaris.

This was an experience of a lifetime thanks to Richard!
5/5

My group and I came to visit for a week and from the airport pickup to drop off on the last day we enjoyed. Richard was very pleasant and knowledge. We had many things we wanted to experience and he was patient with us and made provisions for us to see everything. He communicated well and made sure that we were safe. It felt as if we had known him all of our lives. He provided us excellent customer service and always made sure that we were please. We definitely will be back and we would not travel there with another else but HEKIMA Safaris!

One of the best.
5/5


I recently went on a trip with Hekima Tourist Company and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and they went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the trip was enjoyable and hassle-free.

The itinerary was well-planned and allowed us to see all the major sights in the area without feeling rushed. The accommodations were also top-notch, with comfortable and clean rooms that were conveniently located near all the attractions.

What really stood out to me was the attention to detail that the company put into every aspect of the trip. From the transportation to the food to the tour guides, everything was thoughtfully planned and executed to perfection.

I would highly recommend Hekima Tourist Company to anyone looking for a well-organized and enjoyable travel experience. They truly exceeded my expectations and I can't wait to book another trip with them in the future!

Awesome
5/5

We did both Safari and Kilimanjaro with Hekima Safari. Such amazing experiences!

The Safari was 4 days in total in Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. Amir was a very experienced guide making sure we got front-row seats to both leopard and lions and Kennedy was a very good driver. We saw 4/5 of the big five up close - it was amazing! The food was good,  varied and we didn't miss anything. We felt safe in the big jeeps which was a big concern for us beforehand. The great experience on the safari and with Jackson made us book our Kilimanjaro trek through Hekima, too.

We did Kilimanjaro in 7 days via the Lemosho route. The guides (Tuesday and Emanuel) were very experienced and good at motivating us to go all the way to the top. We were somewhat scared of the altitude sickness and they made sure we felt safe and cared for.
Amazing crew!! The cook, the porters and our waiter were all so friendly and made sure that nothing would stand in our way to the top. We were provided quality equipment - both tents and sleeping bags which is really important in the cold environment. We were very positively surprised regarding the food - it was varied, fresh and healthy and we didn't eat the same thing twice for dinner.
You also get a wash-wash (a bowl with hot water and soap) before dinner and in the morning which made it bearable to go 7 days without a real shower..
It was an amazing experience and we sure wouldn't have reached Uhuru Peak without the whole crew.

Overall, 5/5 and would definetly book again through Hekima Safari.

SAFARIS AND CULTURAL EXTENSION FOR PHOTO ADDCTS ! :)
5/5

A program based on the offer in Safaribookings by Hekima Safaris but with the capacity of adaptation to my personal interests (mainly photos of wildlife, landscape and people).
5 Stars program, and 5 stars the guide (Fred) the staff of the company (Hekima) and to the staff of all hotels and lodges.

The program it’s very good and balanced, allot of wildlife and the people… so nice, educated and friendly.
So amazing trip that I ask for future for make a program “Photo Safari” with Hekima Safaris, in Portuguese and Spanish (for my groups of photographers that are mainly from Portugal, Spain and Brasil, and others that want join us).

Take a look of some notes about the trip, me and photos -» https://safarisfotografia.wixsite.com/site
