Really professional and caring before/during and after the service!
Our experience has been fantastic with Kihindo Tours. I was exchanging emails with Winnie for quite a while, and she was very patient, answering all my queries clearly and really fast, providing different options to match what we wanted, and being accommodating.
We were picked up at our hotel in Dar es Salaam by Winnie and Michael (our guide) promptly (they actually got there earlier than expected!), and after finalising payment and dropping Winnie at the offices, Michael started driving us to the camp where we'd be staying. He was very chatty, there were lots of water in the car and we stopped a couple of times for lunch, a break, etc. It is a bit of a long drive to Mikumi, but well worth it. A few kms before arriving to the camp, we started seeing animals (giraffes, zebras, impalas...) and Michael very kindly stopped so we could start taking pics. The accommodation was great. We had a nice bungalow, with the basics. It was really charming and all we could hear was birds and insects. It was lovely. food in the camp was very nice (buffet).
the safari - Amazing .Michael was great, really knowledgeable and explaining lots of things. He made the whole thing really interesting, easy and really cool! We were very aware that it's a safari so maybe we wouldn't be able to see some animals (sadly we didn't spot leopards), but it was amazing. Our first day we saw elephants, lions, zebras, giraffes, impalas, crocodiles, monitor lizards, hippos, wilderbeests, storks...and other animals and birds I can't remember haha .
We also did a walking tour of the nearby waterfalls. It was great view and really quiet, as it was low season, so we had the waterfalls just for us to swim
All in all, we believe it's great value for money, they were extremely reliable, helping us with all the queries we had before/during/after the safari...Would absolutely recommend. We even met Mr Kihindo, who is a very nice young man!!!

Experience of a lifetime!
Our safari experience — 4 day/3 night in Mizumi NP + Udzungwa NP + Masai Village — far exceeded our expectations! The service and organization was above and beyond every step of the way. From making arrangements with Winnie, our tour guide, Isaya and his team, to the activities, food and accommodations. It was so much fun and we saw more animals than we ever expected. We appreciated the youthful, fun, positive energy and extensive knowledge of everyone on team Kihindo. You will, no doubt, have the experience of a lifetime with Kihindo!!

Fantastic safari
We had a fantastic 3 days safari with William as guide and driver. He was really good at spotting animals and he also knew where to drive and stop exactly near them. He is very professional and knows a lot about animals and can answer any questions. William is funny and open mind, speaks good English and knows when/how to give his customers personal space. He is respectful and punctual.
Everything was great and we had some of unforgettable experience of our life.
From the beginning to end of our safari experience communication with the company was smooth - Winnie is doing a great job. She was replying quickly and clearly.
Thank you Kihindo Tours.

Faultless and friendly care with reliable recommendations and dependable service
Winnie was so helpful going above and beyond to make the organisation and start of the trip incredibly easy, including speedy communication, airport transfers, hotel recommendations, last minute activities and getting a sim card no stress at all. All of the team were very welcoming, caring and knowledgeable on a wide range of topics. Isaya anticipated every comfort and made journeys laidback and interesting. Godfrey was a great guide on safari, adapting to our wishes and finding great spots to see the unbelievable wildlife.
The landscape of Mikumi National Park is well worth a visit and we were lucky to see lots of elephants and lions. It is also more accessible than other parks in the rainy seasons. The included accommodation at Camp Bastian was luxurious, comfortable and clean and there was a wide range of delicious food served at the buffets.
I cannot recommend Kihindo Tours and Safaris enough! You can really rely on them to have a trip of a lifetime.

Amazing tour operator
I had a lot of expectations but this tour exceeded them all. We saw so many animals, our guide Gaston showed us as many things as possible and gave a lot of information, the hotel was super pretty. This was an amazing experience and I recommend this tour. Also don't get scared about the rainy season in December because there was almost no rain when I was there.

Highly recommend this unforgettable adventure!
What an incredible safari tour in Tanzania Mikumi National Park with Kihindo Tours and Safaris. The quality surpassed expectations, offering excellent value for money. So well looked after all the way - and what an outstanding experience to see so many beautiful creatures in just 2 days. Our guide, Isayah, was outstanding—his deep local knowledge and friendly demeanor added immense value to the experience. Highly recommend this unforgettable adventure!

Outstanding
You will not regret booking with Kihindo Tours and Safari's.
The process of booking was smooth and communication swift. Met at the airport and seemless transfer to the safari park and dropped off at the ferry port once complete.
The safari was excellent and more so our guide William made the trip that bit better. Very personable, warming and had a good knowledge of the animals that we saw which included lions, elphants and Water Buffalo.
Great company, staffed by excellent, genuine people who make your trip so very special.

Fantastic 2 day Nyerere safari
As a solo traveler I was a bit nervous that there would not be options available to me (especially at a reasonable price) but huge shoutout to Winnie who held my hand through the process including when some flight issues meant I had to shorten from 3 days to 2. Isaya was an amazing guide as others have noted and we made the most of the shortened time. Would note that drive to Nyerere from Dar was only around 4 hours each way as I saw some sources mentioning a much longer transit time. The road isn’t great but wasn’t as bad as I had feared.
