Life time Safari in East Africa
We have just come back from our long and amazing safari in East Africa. Before, We did not beleave if it could be possible to do a tour around East Africa, but even when we booked with Kitonga tours still it was hard if we can, but this tour company told us that it is possible so on March 2022 we did our tour starting from Rwanda, Uganda Kenya and Tanzania, We experienced so many things as we expected, we are very happy because in every step it had new experience boat at lake Kivu Rwanda, Gorilla in Uganda, Masai Mara in Kenya, and Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti in Tanzania was a best experiencing moments all together. many thanks to all guides who was with us in all destinationations. many thanks to Kitonga Tours staff who told us that it is possible and assist us in all destinations. We did several safaris in Africa but this was the best of all. Thank you Kitonga team for your good customer care.

Fantastic safari with KITONGA TOURS.
Fantastic Safari! We visited Ruaha National Park with our amazing driver and guide Mr Paul. His knowledge was super and he looked after us very well. We saw hundreds of animals and the geographical features as well. The Bandas we stayed at were so beautiful and we saw different kind of animals like girrafes and elephants path near with our Bandas and all the staff everywhere were so welcoming. I would thoroughly recommend KITONGA TOURS and our wonderful driver Mr Paul.

Thank you Kitonga Tours for a fantastic safari trip delivered without flaws!
I am writing a review as we found that organizing a safari in Tanzania without going through an agent has been very complex.
Costs are very high and how to know if the company you are hiring is any good for the price?
We are a French/Danish family with two children (11 and 15 years) that went to game drive in the beautiful, large and less crowded Ruaha national park with a total of 5 nights of which 3 nights were spent inside the park in August 2022 (we stayed the 2 other nights in transit in Iringa).
We chose to travel by jeep from Dar Es Salaam to the Ruaha park and even though it is a long journey of approx. 12 hours to Iringa, we were very happy to have done it as it gave us a great possibility to see and enjoy The Tanzanian countryside.
All the details of the 6 days (5 nights) trip package were coordinated via email/sms with Paul (our guide) and everything was delivered without flaw. We met Gerald the owner of the company in Iringa, a very simpatic and smiley man before driving further via a long and bumpy dirt road to the Ruaha park entrance.
Paul (guide) and Isa (our driver and guide) were both with us the entire trip and did everything they could to accommodate our wishes and always arrived on time when we were to be picked up in the morning.
Isa was an excellent driver on road (feeling very safe including when we drove from Dar Es Salaam to Ruaha) and off road before and in the park (agile and comfortable)
Their safari jeep was in excellent condition and very comfortable to sit in and with a small refrigerator to keep the water bottles cool. We felt safe at all times.
Isa and Paul were very helpful in spotting animals - we saw all the big five (among others) except the Rhino that does not live in the park.
We ended the tour having a great and relaxed relationship with them. Both are really nice and sympathetic people.
The Ruaha park is a gem offering a large variety of colourful landscape and vegetation ( rivers, flat and dry terrain, hills , rocky area, with many plant species including many Baobab trees in certain areas, and combining dry and green areas in August ). We really appreciated there were extremely few jeeps inside the Ruaha park, so we could get an authentic feeling of being on a safari, and it was possible to drive for long distances and many hours without meeting another jeep. Be aware however that in this park you will not see dense packs of animals like buffalos, zebras, antelopes like you can see in the Serengeti park. You will find more sparced and smaller groups of animals within a larger park.
We can highly recommend a tour organised with Kitonga Tours. Kitonga Tours will also be highly capable to organise safari tours to all other national parks in Tanzania.

Fantastic Day Trip!
I had a fantastic safari in Ruaha National Park with Kitonga Tours! I saw so much in my one day trip leaving from Iringa – elephants, giraffes, zebras, crocodiles, ostriches and even several lions up close. Our guide and driver did a fantastic job in leading the trip and showing us the best spots, and Paul from the office was also very helpful in finding a group that I could join as a solo traveller. Highly recommended!
