Informative safari experience that exceeded my expectations
5/5

The safari exceeded all my expectations. I got a lot of information of the nature, animals and the wild life overall. I was lucky to see all the animals that can be seen in Mikumi. Also, my guide Wiliam told me a lot of the Tanzanian culture, habits and way of living. I found it very interesting and valuable. Something that one cannot rate in money. The 10 km hike was incredible with many waterfalls and a chance to swim in them. There was not a lot of “alone time”, so if you wish to have some during e.g. the meals, inform the organiser before hand. I felt very well taken care of, since Winnie messaged me every day and asked me how my day had been and is there anything that they can help me with. I can recommend KIHINDO tours & safari to others.

Really professional and caring before/during and after the service!
5/5

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!!!

All perfect! ♥️
5/5

It will be difficult to find the right words to describe the service offered by Kihindo Tours and Safari.
Before leaving we got in touch with Winnie, the organization manager, who was simply fantastic about everything! She helped us solve some problems that were beyond their control, she helped us organize the Safari, she came to pick us up at the airport, she took care of getting us a refund (unexpected) from the airline since we had changed our plans back, and there are no words to describe how flawless everything was. Rating 10+

Once we arrived in Mikumi we were lucky enough to meet Michael, our guide. We immediately perceived his passion for his work, the welcome was super. The first day we went to learn about the Masai culture, while the second was dedicated entirely to the safari. Michael knows every type of animal, he told us everything about them, everything was explained with sweetness and passion. He was available for any request, always with a smile! He made us live the real safari experience by taking us to as many places as possible in the park looking for animals everywhere, making us feel safe. A good soul and a true professional. Rating 10+

I recommend everyone to book with Kihindo Tours and Safari, you won't regret it! Thank you ♥️

Experience of a lifetime!
5/5

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
5/5

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
5/5

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.
